PHOTON PAIR SOURCE CONTROLLED BY QUANTUM DOTSTech for Transfer TTO 18-12-2015 The invention presents a method for the production of a photon pair source to generate entangled photon pairs, where the operational behaviour of the source is determined by adjusting the fine structure splitting of the excitonic energy level of one or more quantum dots. The fine structure splitting can be adjusted by depositing the quantum dot(s) on a particular crystal face of a semiconductor substrate. Quantum Optics Semiconductors Quantum Dots Tell me more |

OPTICAL FIBER 3D SOLAR CELLSTech for Transfer TTO 19-12-2015 In this invention, a dye-sensitized solar cell for harvesting solar energy is integrated with a piezoelectric nanogenerator for harvesting ultrasonic wave energy. The two energy harvesting approaches can work simultaneously or individually and can be integrated in parallel or in series for increasing the output current, voltage or power, respectively. The solar cell employs an optical fiber and semiconductor nanowires grown around the fiber. The fiber can transmit light, while the nanowires increase the surface area of light exposure. Light propagates through the fiber until it enters a nanowire where it reaches a photovoltaic element. Light in the fiber cannot escape until it interacts with a photovoltaic element, thereby increasing solar conversion efficiency. Fiber Optics Photovoltaics Tell me more |
