Abstract

A method and system for providing at least one of planarization, densification, and exfoliation of a porous material using ion beams. The method may use an ion beam generator to generate an ion beam, the ion beam having energy above 0.1 MeV. The ion beam generator may irradiate the surface of a porous material with the ion beam to produce at least one of planarization, densification, and exfoliation of the porous material.

Microchip and wedge ion funnels and planar ion beam analyzers using same

Patent Shvartsburg, Alexandre A; Anderson, Gordon A; Smith, Richard D

Electrodynamic ion funnels confine, guide, or focus ions in gases using the Dehmelt potential of oscillatory electric field. New funnel designs operating at or close to atmospheric gas pressure are described. Effective ion focusing at such pressures is enabled by fields of extreme amplitude and frequency, allowed in microscopic gaps that have much higher electrical breakdown thresholds in any gas than the macroscopic gaps of present funnels. The new microscopic-gap funnels are useful for interfacing atmospheric-pressure ionization sources to mass spectrometry (MS) and ion mobility separation (IMS) stages including differential IMS or FAIMS, as well as IMS and MS stagesmore » « less

Electrodes with silicon oxide active materials for lithium ion cells achieving high capacity, high energy density and long cycle life performance

Patent Venkatachalam, Subramanian; Sharma, Sanjeev; Li, Xianyu Iris; ...

Improved negative electrodes can comprise a silicon based active material blended with graphite to provide more stable cycling at high energy densities. In some embodiments, the negative electrodes comprise a blend of polyimide binder mixed with a more elastic polymer binder with a nanoscale carbon conductive additive. The silicon-based blended graphite negative electrodes can be matched with positive electrodes comprising nickel rich lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxides to form high energy density cells with good cycling properties.

Nanoparticle deposition in porous and on planar substrates

Patent Pal, Uday B.; Basu, Soumendra; Gasper, Paul; ...

A method of preparing a metal nanoparticle on a surface includes subjecting a metal source to a temperature and a pressure in a carrier gas selected to provide a vapor metal species at a vapor pressure in the range of about 10−4 to about 10−11 atm; contacting the vapor metal species with a heated substrate; and depositing the metal as a nanoparticle on the substrate.

Microwave impregnation of porous materials with thermal energy storage materials

Patent Benson, David K [Golden, CO]; Burrows, Richard W [Conifer, CO]

A method for impregnating a porous, non-metallic construction material with a solid phase-change material is described. The phase-change material in finely divided form is spread onto the surface of the porous material, after which the porous material is exposed to microwave energy for a time sufficient to melt the phase-change material. The melted material is spontaneously absorbed into the pores of the porous material. A sealing chemical may also be included with the phase-change material (or applied subsequent to the phase-change material) to seal the surface of the porous material. Fire retardant chemicals may also be included with the phase-changemore » « less
