    SIGNALS Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering 2011 Summer, Vol. XI, Issue 1 Harnessing nanostructures for new applicati ons Light is a versatile carrier of information but is con- strained by diffraction limits. The emerging fi eld of plasmonics—using the surface plasmon waves of metal nanostructures to manipulate optical energy at the nanometer scale—works to overcome the constraints and involves engineering metals such as gold, silver, and copper for diverse applications. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Prof. Sang-Hyun Oh and his research team work to ad- dress the challenges of plasmonics and harness nano- structures for a number of applications in biosensing, spectroscopy, and solar cells. “In 1998, researchers at NEC laboratory showed that nanoscale holes in gold and silver fi lms provided unusu- ally strong optical transmission,” says Oh. “Building on those fi ndings, many researchers like us began develop- Above is a conceptual illustrati on of cell-mimicking lipid membranes formed on a me- ing techniques to engineer gold and silver fi lms and to drill tallic nanopore biosensor by the rupture of spherical shaped lipid membranes, called tiny holes in these structures.

  • Nanotechnology for Solar Module Applications: Zinc Oxide Nanostructures and Anti-Reflective Coating Modeling, Deposition, Analysis, and Model Fitting
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Katherine M. Han for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemical Engineering presented on March 19, 2014. Title: Nanotechnology for Solar Module Applications: Zinc Oxide Nanostructures and Anti-Reflective Coating Modeling, Deposition, Analysis, and Model Fitting Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Chih-Hung Chang To become a competitor for fossil fuels such as coal, solar installations will need to be produced and installed at a price equal to or below grid parity. This price can be approached by either reducing the overall system cost or increasing system efficiency. The focus of this paper is on increasing both cell and module efficiency through application of nanotechnology and by numeral modeling. The first portion of this dissertation will focus on the production and characterization of zinc oxide urchin-like nanostructures. These nanostructures have a very high surface area to volume ratio. Such nanostructures could be appropriate for dye sensitized solar cells, an emergent PV technology. The second portion focuses on improving a solar module’s anti- reflective properties. In a traditional glass-encapsulated solar module at least 4% of the incoming light is lost to reflections off of the first optical interface alone. This in turn lower system efficiency and increases the levelized cost of energy. The power loss can be reduced greatly by thin film or gradient index anti-reflective coatings. An in-depth review of the current options for mathematical modeling of the optics of anti- reflective coatings is presented. The following chapter describes a numerical approach to anti-reflective interface design and a comparison between the finite- difference time-domain and the transfer matrix method of optical modeling.

  • SUNDIAL Prisum Monthly Newsletter January 2018 Happy New Year!
    SUNDIAL PrISUm Monthly Newsletter January 2018 Happy New Year! As PrISUm rolls into 2018 with Penumbra back in the States, the team looks back on quite a year of new endeavors . Penumbra became the first four door solar car in the United States to compete in the World Solar Challenge. Before going to the World Solar Challenge, Penumbra and a large variety of team members traveled to every county in Iowa sharing our passions for sustainable energy sources Penumbra Unveiled and education. Shortly after, Penumbra made her way to the land down under. Penumbra was PrISUm’s first car to make it to Australia and compete in the cruiser class. Now looking forward to PrISUm’s upcoming year, the team has two priorities. Now that Penumbra is back, members of the mechanical and electrical teams are working towards prepping the car for Formula Sun Grand Prix and the American Solar Challenge in July. The team members who aren’t working on Penny (and even most of them who are) are looking towards the next cycle. That’s right! PrISUm has started design work for the 15th car. No details are being released on the 15th car at this moment, but the team has learned a lot of helpful knowledge both from Penumbra’s design and build process, but also by learning from industry partners and other competitors. Outreach PrISUm prides itself in doing meaningful outreach to everyone in our community: young, less young, student, life long learner, and anyone in between. While SunRun was a great way to reach out to hundreds of thousands of people, it’s not the only time to see the car and team out and about.

  • Supersonic Speed Also in This Issue: a Model for Sustainability Crystal Orientation Mapping Nustar Looks at Neutron Stars About the Cover
    Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory December 2014 A Weapon Test at Supersonic Speed Also in this issue: A Model for Sustainability Crystal Orientation Mapping NuSTAR Looks at Neutron Stars About the Cover A team of Lawrence Livermore engineers and scientists helped design and develop a new warhead for the U.S. Air Force. This five-year effort culminated in a highly successful sled test on October 23, 2013, at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico. The test achieved speeds greater than Mach 3 and assessed how the new warhead responded to simulated flight conditions. The success of the sled test also demonstrated the value of using advanced computational and manufacturing technologies to develop complex conventional munitions for aerospace systems. The artist’s rendering on the cover shows a supersonic conventional weapon as it emerges from its rocket nose cone and prepares to reenter Earth’s atmosphere. (Courtesy of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.)

    Boy George (George O'Dowd) (b. 1961) by Tina Gianoulis Boy George performing Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. in London in 2001. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Photograph by Jessica Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Hansson. Image appears under the Boy George is, like many middle-aged queers, a survivor. And, like many pop icons, Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike one of the main trials he has had to survive is his own fame. License Version 2.5. The Boy George persona, which came to international attention with the success of the band Culture Club in the early 1980s, threatened to overshadow completely Boy George the performer. However, George's talent, resilience, and genuine affability have seen him through his band's breakup, his own drug addiction, an unexpected solo comeback, and a 1998 reunion with Culture Club. Retaining his sense of style and eclecticism throughout, George has proved he is not merely a stage persona, but also a real original and a gay pioneer. Born in Bexleyheath, a cheerless section of South London, on June 14, 1961, George Alan O'Dowd was the third of six children born to working class Irish parents. His father, a builder and boxing coach, and his mother, who worked in a nursing home, had little attention to spare to give emotional support to their children, especially little George, who showed signs of being "different" from a very early age. He often showed up at church in outlandish hats and platform shoes. Indeed, the eccentric clothes he wore to school got him assigned to a class for incorrigibles.

FRANNY'S CANDIES “I roll the Kettledrum candy in my mouth.” Franny pictures herself chewing on Boston Fruit Slices and her jaw flexes automatically. “Chewy wedges taste lemon and lime and go BOOM-bah-BOOM when I bite into one.” She adds, “When I unwrap a second Kettledrum out of its tight parchment, I examine the sour and sugar-copper rind. They are better enjoyed in pairs. Tomás, why aren’t Kettledrum candies hard? Like Lifesavers or Butterscotches? When they clink against your teeth, they could sound like a snare or a top hat. I can hear a soft bass rumble a tympani symphony deep within me. I swear, the Kettledrums make my voice go baritone when I sing BOOM-bah-BOOM after eating one. It’s true: I’ve tried it!” Franny confesses this to me under her gummy-bear breath and I agree unconditionally the way a best friend must. We come here because most of her schoolmates do not make their way down the block to Doña Dolce.

Still her mother brought her halfway around the world to UC Davis, where four years of treatments and surgeries took their toll on her body and her childhood, but ultimately reversed the disease. Azadeh might have turned away from her grueling past. Instead she chose to embrace it. Today, as a volunteer for support programs at UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, she helps other young people facing similar cancer challenges. Here, she offers others not only access to practical resources, but also something more profound: a survivor’s understanding and empathy.
