Models for hydrolysis, fermentation and concentration process, production and utilization of biogas as well as lignin gasification are developed to calculate the heat demand of ethanol production process and the amounts of heat and power generated from res ...
It was about 125 years ago that the light bulb was commercialized by Thomas Edison. No doubt a brilliant invention at the time, today its low power conversion efficiency is one of the reasons why lighting in the western world has such high energy consumpti ...
Thermoelectric effects, such as the generation of a particle current by a temperature gradient, have their origin in a reversible coupling between heat and particle flows. These effects are fundamental probes for materials and have applications to cooling ...

Plasmonic nanostructures can significantly advance broadband visible-light absorption, with absorber thicknesses in the sub-wavelength regime, much thinner than conventional broadband coatings. Such absorbers have inherently very small heat capacity, hence ...
This thesis deals with the optical characterization of single quantum dot devices emitting at 1300nm. Thanks to the development and optimization of the growth technique we were able to achieve at the same time emission at 1300nm and ultra low QD densities. ...
The ClearPEM is a dedicated APD-based PET detector for high-resolution breast cancer imaging. The detector module is composed of 12 LYSO:Ce crystal matrices, each with 4 x 8 individual crystals (2 x 2 x 20 mm(3)) optically coupled on both ends to S8550 Ham ...
The current density limit for photoemission from metals was measured in an rf photogun to be below 10(9) A/m(2). We have achieved 1.6 x 10(11) A/m(2) by photofield emission from a new type of photocathode made from a metallic-composite, multifilamentary Nb ...
Over the past decade a new family of optoelectronic devices has emerged whose performance is enhanced by placing the active device structure inside a Fabry–Perot resonantmicrocavity [P. E. Green, IEEE Spectrum 13 (2002)]. The increased optical field allows ...
The optimization of powders preparation and consolidation process leads to the achievement of a high thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT=1.25 at 800°C) in an n-type silicon-germanium (SiGe) alloy hot pressed at low heating rate. It has been experimentally o ...
A new procedure for benchmarking analysis has been developed to evaluate the energy efficiency of a chemical process. Benchmarking is performed to identify process inefficiencies before developing energy enhancement measures. The new procedure combines typ ...
