Rogers has announced that they can add data matrix codes (DMCs) to a wide range of metalized substrates, including direct-bonded-copper and active-metal-brazed substrates. The codes can be “text or numeric in form and encoded by code-reading camera systems” and “are written on metalized surfaces by means of a thin oxide layer formed by an optical laser system,” said the … [Read more...]
Tesla Powerwall Comes with Unexpected, Loud Electronic Hum
With the recent residential installations of Tesla’s Powerwall home battery systems, customers have been reporting an unwanted loud electronic humming sound . Breitbart.com reported, “a German customer measured a noise level from a Powerwall installed in his garage in February at more than 80 decibels,” which was continuous and audible “in the whole house.” “I was told that … [Read more...]
New Material Cools Solar Cells Yet Absorbs Sunlight
Recently, researchers from Stanford University have achieved a combination of cooling and maintaining sunlight absorption with a wafer made of silica to better cool solar cells, according to BusinessWire.com. BusinessWire.com explained, “The researchers etched tapered holes, about 6 micrometers across and 10 micrometers deep, in the wafer. The holes are designed to smooth the … [Read more...]
Innovative Water Boiling Approach Could Cool Advanced Electronics
Oregon State University engineers have recently discovered a new way to make advanced electronics more efficient by inducing and controlling boiling bubble formations. According to ScienceDaily.com, “The new approach is based on the use of piezoelectric inkjet printing to create hydrophobic polymer "dots" on a substrate, and then deposit a hydrophilic zinc oxide nanostructure … [Read more...]
Liquid Cooling Used in New Off-Grid Power Generator and Water Purifier
(April 7, 2016) Watly has recently launched an Indiegogo campaign to raise the final needed funds for the release of its water sanitizing and electricity generating computer powered entirely by solar energy. The Watly 3.0 “combines photovoltaic and thermal solar technology to sanitize 5,000 liters of water a day,” while also “generating off-grid electricity that powers its … [Read more...]
