Batteries store charge via Faradaic processes, involving reversible transfer of localised or zone-delocalised valence electrons. The former is governed by the Nernst equation. The latter leads to pseudocapacitance (or Faradaic capacitance) which may be differentiated from electric double layer capacitance with spectroscopic assistance such as electron spin resonance. Since capacitive storage is the basis of supercapacitors, the combination of capacitive and Nernstian mechanisms has dominated supercapattery research since 2018, covering nanostructured and compounded metal oxides and sulfides, water-in-salt and redox active electrolytes and bipolar stacks of multi-cells. The technical achievements so far, such as specific energy of 270 Wh/kg in aqueous electrolyte, and charging-discharging for over 5000 cycles, benchmark a challenging but promising future of supercapattery.

Abstract: Two-dimensional materials have garnered interest from the perspectives of physics, materi- als, and applied electronics owing to their outstanding physical and chemical properties. Advances in exfoliation and synthesis technologies have enabled preparation and electrical characterization of various atomically thin films of semiconductor transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Their two-dimensional structures and electromagnetic spectra coupled to bandgaps in the visible region indicate their suitability for digital electronics and optoelectronics. To further expand the potential applications of these two-dimensional semiconductor materials, technologies capable of precisely controlling the electrical properties of the material are essential. Doping has been traditionally used to effectively change the electrical and electronic properties of materials through relatively simple processes. To change the electrical properties, substances that can donate or remove electrons are Citation: Yoo, H.; Heo, K.; added.

  • Have Shown an Apical Transport of Heteroauxin (Indole-3-Acetic Acid)
    ELECTRICAL POLARITY AND AUXIN TRANSPORT W. G. CLARK (WITH TEN FIGURES) Introduction The polar basal transport of the growth substances (auxins, growth hormones) in plants is a well known phenomenon, demonstrated first by WENT (81), and studied in detail by VAN DER WEIJ (78, 80). These investi- gators used the Avena (oat) coleoptile.' That the phenomenon is more or less general is indicated by the polar transport of auxin in roots (CHOLODNY, 19; NAGAO 60); in hypocotyls of Raphanus (VAN OVERBEEK, 62), of Pisum (SKOOG, 74); in leaves (AVERY, 2); in the coleoptile of Avena (WENT, 81; LAIBACH and KORNMANN, 40; VAN DER WEIJ, 78, 80; and SKOOG, 74) and corn (VAN OVERBEEK, 63); in Elaeagnus (woody cutting) (VAN DER WEIJ, 79); in stems of Coleus, Vicia, and Phaseolus; and in hypocotyls of Vicia, Phaseolus, and Lupinus (MAI, 54). Other workers have reported non-polar transport of auxin in plants. HITCHCOCK and ZIMMERMAN (31) and ZIMMERMAN and WLCOXON (85) have shown an apical transport of heteroauxin (indole-3-acetic acid) and several other active compounds in stems of Helianthus tuberosus, Nicotiana tabacum, and in Lycopersicum esculentum, as indicated by induction of adventitious roots and by epinastic response of leaves. LOEHWING and BAUGUESS (45) have shown that heteroauxin could be absorbed by the root system of potted seedlings of Matthiola incana and be transported apically to increase the stem elongation over that of the controls. Both the Boyce- Thompson workers and LOEHWING and BAUGUESS have merely shown that auxin applied in high concentrations can be carried in the transpiration stream. This, of course, will not give polar transport.

  • Light-Emitting Diode - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Light-emitting diode - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-emitting_diode From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A light-emitting diode (LED) (pronounced /ˌɛl iː ˈdiː/[1]) is a semiconductor Light-emitting diode light source. LEDs are used as indicator lamps in many devices, and are increasingly used for lighting. Introduced as a practical electronic component in 1962,[2] early LEDs emitted low-intensity red light, but modern versions are available across the visible, ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths, with very high brightness. When a light-emitting diode is forward biased (switched on), electrons are able to recombine with holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is called electroluminescence and the color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the photon) is determined by the energy gap of Red, green and blue LEDs of the 5mm type 2 the semiconductor. An LED is usually small in area (less than 1 mm ), and Type Passive, optoelectronic integrated optical components are used to shape its radiation pattern and assist in reflection.[3] LEDs present many advantages over incandescent light sources Working principle Electroluminescence including lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved robustness, Invented Nick Holonyak Jr. (1962) smaller size, faster switching, and greater durability and reliability. LEDs powerful enough for room lighting are relatively expensive and require more Electronic symbol precise current and heat management than compact fluorescent lamp sources of comparable output. Pin configuration Anode and Cathode Light-emitting diodes are used in applications as diverse as replacements for aviation lighting, automotive lighting (particularly indicators) and in traffic signals.

  • Enamel Rating Reference Guide
    Enamel Rating: Reference Guide This reference guide is a collection of useful information relating to the widely used enamel rating test. The test itself is quite simple, but why it works and how to get the best from the test is not necessarily well known. What is enamel rating? Enamel rating is a test that checks the integrity of internal coatings applied to metal packaging. The test is carried out using an electronic gauge plus a device that holds the product and connects it to the gauge. If the internal coating of a can or end has not been adequately applied, some areas of the metal substrate will be exposed to the contents of the can, which may result in metal corrosion and contamination of the contents, depending on the product to be contained. Enamel rating is also sometimes referred to as a ‘metal exposure test’, ‘mA test’, or ‘porosity test’. How it works Cans are tested by filling them with a conductive electrolyte—typically salty water. Ends are tested with apparatus that dips the product side of the end in the electrolyte. A test probe is immersed in the electrolyte and the metal substrate is connected via exterior contacts. These are normally sharpened to cut through external lacquers and decoration. The electrolyte naturally conforms to the inner surface of the can or end, potentially creating an electrical circuit when a voltage (6.3VDC) is applied to the test probe for 4 seconds. Electricity can flow through electrolyte because negatively charged salt ions migrate towards the positive electrode (the contacts attached to the metal substrate) creating a current flow.

  • Underwater Animal Monitoring Magnetic Sensor System
    Underwater Animal Monitoring Magnetic Sensor System Thesis by Altynay Kaidarova In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Science King Abdullah University of Science and Technology Thuwal, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia October, 2017 1 EXAMINATION COMMITTEE PAGE The thesis of Altynay Kaidarova is approved by the examination committee. Committee Chairperson: Jürgen Kosel Committee Members: Boon S. Ooi, Micheal L. Berumen 2 COPYRIGHT PAGE © September 2017, Altynay Kaidarova All Rights Reserved 3 ABSTRACT Underwater animal monitoring magnetic sensor system Altynay Kaidarova Obtaining new insights into the behavior of free-living marine organisms is fundamental for conservation efforts and anticipating the impact of climate change on marine ecosystems. Despite the recent advances in biotelemetry, collecting physiological and behavioral parameters of underwater free-living animals remains technically challenging. In this thesis, we develop the first magnetic underwater animal monitoring system that utilizes Tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) sensors, the most sensitive solid-state sensors today, coupled with flexible magnetic composites. The TMR sensors are composed of CoFeB free layers and MgO tunnel barriers, patterned using standard optical lithography and ion milling procedures. The short and long-term stability of the TMR sensors has been studied using statistical and Allan deviation analysis. Instrumentation noise has been reduced using optimized electrical interconnection schemes. We also develop flexible NdFeB-PDMS composite magnets optimized for applications in corrosive marine environments, and which can be attached to marine animals. The magnetic and mechanical properties are studied for different NdFeB powder concentrations and the performance of the magnetic composites for different exposure times to sea water is systematically investigated.
