Filed:

Nov 14, 1979

Appl. No.:

6/094114

Inventors:

Yun S. Lee - Honolulu HI

International Classification:

E04C 110

E04B 140

US Classification:

52584

Abstract:

An insulated building for enclosing a refrigerated space is assembled from a plurality of standard-sized modules with each module connected to its adjacent module through a joint interface that includes confronting sealing surfaces that are formed parallel to, perpendicular to, and obliquely to the plane of the modules and connected together by a threaded fastener that extends at an oblique angle to the plane of the modules so that each pair of confronting surfaces are placed under a positive sealing force to provide both a moisture-proof and structurally rigid joint.

Abstract:

Semitransparent chalcogen solar cells and techniques for fabrication thereof are provided. In one aspect, a method of forming a solar cell includes: forming a first transparent contact on a substrate; depositing an n-type layer on the first transparent contact; depositing a p-type chalcogen absorber layer on the n-type layer, wherein a p-n junction is formed between the p-type chalcogen absorber layer and the n-type layer; depositing a protective interlayer onto the p-type chalcogen absorber layer, wherein the protective interlayer fully covers the p-type chalcogen absorber layer; and forming a second transparent contact on the interlayer, wherein the interlayer being disposed between the p-type chalcogen absorber layer and the second transparent contact serves to protect the p-n junction during the forming of the second transparent contact. Solar cells and other methods for formation thereof are also provided.

Abstract:

Selenium-fullerene heterojunction solar cells and techniques for fabrication thereof are provided. In one aspect, a method of forming a solar cell includes: forming a front contact on a substrate; depositing an n-type semiconducting layer on the front contact, wherein the n-type semiconducting layer comprises a fullerene or fullerene derivative; forming a p-type chalcogen absorber layer on the n-type semiconducting layer; depositing a high workfunction material onto the p-type chalcogen absorber layer, wherein the high workfunction material has a workfunction of greater than about 5.2 electron volts; and forming a back contact on the high workfunction material. Solar cells and other methods for formation thereof are also provided.

Abstract:

A solid-state lithium-based battery having fast charging and recharging speeds (above 3 C) is provided by including a nitrogen-enriched lithiated cathode material surface layer between the lithiated cathode material layer and the lithium-based solid-state electrolyte layer. The nitrogen-enriched lithiated cathode material surface layer can be formed by introducing nitrogen into a lithiated cathode material. The nitrogen can be introduced during the final stage of a deposition process or by utilizing a different process, such as, for example, thermal nitridation, than a deposition process.

Abstract:

Embodiments herein describe techniques for forming sidewalls on vertical structures on a semiconductor substrate. In one embodiment, the semiconductor substrate includes a first layer (e.g., a conductive layer such as an electrode) on which a second layer (e.g., an insulator) is disposed. An undercut etch is performed which selectively etches the sides of the material in the first layer but not the material in the second layer. A conformal deposition process is used to deposit the material of the sidewall into the undercut regions. Further etches can be performed to shape the sidewalls disposed on the sides of the material in the first layer.

Abstract:

Embodiments herein describe techniques for forming a zinc oxide mask used when performing RIE. In one embodiment, the zinc oxide mask is near-amorphous which means the zinc oxide has a grain size that is less than 50 nanometers. In contrast, metal masks such as aluminum, chromium, and titanium have a less robustness to ME process. When performing RIE, the edges of these ME masks can form pits or holes which harm the features of the underlying substrate. However, a near-amorphous zinc oxide ME mask is less susceptible to pitting, and thus, can improve the geometry of the etched features.
