Novel, Low-Cost, Light-Weight High Efficiency (H*10 Capable) Neutron Detector-Dosimeter

Technical Report Taleyarkhan, Rusi P. [Purdue Univ., West Lafayette, IN (United States). School of Nuclear Engineering]; Wright, Michael [Oak Ridge National Lab. (ORNL), Oak Ridge, TN (United States)]; Archambault, Brian [Sagamore Adams Laboratories, LLC (SAL), Chicago, IL (United States)]

The goal of this project was to design, develop and validate a novel, spectroscopy enabled H*(10) neutron dosimetry system based on the tensioned metastable fluid detector (TMFD) sensor technology. The project team consisted of staff from Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), Purdue University (PU) and Sagamore Adams Laboratories, LLC (SAL). PU-SAL staff were tasked with the design, development, construction and testing of the H*TMFD hardware and software, along with developing the control and data acquisition software for comparison of predictions from H*TMFD against a commonly accepted and widely used industry standard system; for this project, the Li-I detector coupled tomore » « less

Low-cost high-efficiency GDCI engines for low octane fuels

Patent Kolodziej, Christopher P.; Sellnau, Mark C.

A GDCI engine has a piston arranged within a cylinder to provide a combustion chamber. According to one embodiment, the GDCI engine operates using a method that includes the steps of supplying a hydrocarbon fuel to the combustion chamber with a research octane number in the range of about 30-65. The hydrocarbon fuel is injected in completely stratified, multiple fuel injections before a start of combustion and supplying a naturally aspirated air charge to the combustion chamber.

Method for manufacturing solid-state thermal neutron detectors with simultaneous high thermal neutron detection efficiency (>50%) and neutron to gamma discrimination (>1.0E4)

Patent Nikolic, Rebecca J.; Conway, Adam M.; Heineck, Daniel; ...

Methods for manufacturing solid-state thermal neutron detectors with simultaneous high thermal neutron detection efficiency (>50%) and neutron to gamma discrimination (>10.sup.4) are provided. A structure is provided that includes a p+ region on a first side of an intrinsic region and an n+ region on a second side of the intrinsic region. The thickness of the intrinsic region is minimized to achieve a desired gamma discrimination factor of at least 1.0E+04. Material is removed from one of the p+ region or the n+ region and into the intrinsic layer to produce pillars with open space between each pillar. The openmore » « less

Processes for producing low cost, high efficiency silicon solar cells

Patent Rohatgi, Ajeet [Marietta, GA]; Doshi, Parag [Altanta, GA]; Tate, John Keith [Lawrenceville, GA]; ...

Processes which utilize rapid thermal processing (RTP) are provided for inexpensively producing high efficiency silicon solar cells. The RTP processes preserve minority carrier bulk lifetime .tau. and permit selective adjustment of the depth of the diffused regions, including emitter and back surface field (bsf), within the silicon substrate. In a first RTP process, an RTP step is utilized to simultaneously diffuse phosphorus and aluminum into the front and back surfaces, respectively, of a silicon substrate. Moreover, an in situ controlled cooling procedure preserves the carrier bulk lifetime .tau. and permits selective adjustment of the depth of the diffused regions. Inmore » « less
