Abstract: Improved batteries described herein generally comprise an electrolyte having lithium ions and a cathode comprising submicron metal vanadium oxide particles. In some embodiments, the battery demonstrate an accessible current capacity of a least about 220 mAh/g when pulsed in groups of four constant energy pulses at a current density of 30 mA/cm 2 to deliver 50 Joules per pulse. The four pulses of a pulse train are separated by 15 seconds of rest between each pulse, and there are 6 days between pulse groups, upon discharge down to a pulse discharge voltage of 2 V. In further embodiments, the batteries have an average internal electrical resistance of no more than 0.2 Ohms at a current density of at least about 30 mA/cm 2 . Furthermore, the batteries can have a current capability of at least about 0.4 amps per cubic centimeter battery volume. Due to the improved discharge performance, the batteries can exhibit no significant voltage delay throughout the life of the battery as demonstrated in a three month accelerated discharge test.

Abstract: High quality silicon inks are used to form polycrystalline layers within thin film solar cells having a p-n junction. The particles deposited with the inks can be sintered to form the silicon film, which can be intrinsic films or doped films. The silicon inks can have a z- average secondary particle size of no more than about 250 nm as determined by dynamic light scattering on an ink sample diluted to 0.4 weight percent if initially having a greater concentration. In some embodiments, an intrinsic layer can be a composite of an amorphous silicon portion and a crystalline silicon portion.

Abstract: Layer transfer approaches are described to take advantage of large area, thin inorganic foils formed onto a porous release layer. In particular, since the inorganic foils can be formed from ceramics and/or crystalline materials that do not bend a large amount, approaches are described to provide for gradual pulling along an edge to separate the foil from a holding surface along a curved surface designed to not excessively bend the foil such that the foil is not substantially damaged in the transfer process. Apparatuses are described to perform the transfer with a rocking motion or with a rotating cylindrical surface. Furthermore, stabilization of porous release layers can improve the qualities of resulting inorganic foils formed on the release layer. In particular, flame treatments can provide improved release layer properties, and the deposition of an interpenetrating stabilization composition can be deposited using CVD to stabilize a porous layer.

Abstract: Laser pyrolysis apparatuses can provide for the engineering of product inorganic particles in-flight through the use of jet inlets that introduce a composition, such as an inert gas or a surface modifying composition, at high velocity. Under strong mixing conditions, the inorganic particle flow can be manipulated while also reducing particle agglomeration. These strong mixing apparatuses have been found to be effective at forming high quality crystals with structures that inherently grow relatively slowly through the slowing of the quenching process to maintain the crystal development until a desired high degree of crystallinity is achieved. Also, the surface chemistry of the particles can be manipulated in the flow to engineer desired inorganic particle surface chemistry.

The silicon/germanium particles can be surface modified to form the dispersions. The silicon/germanium nanoparticles can be doped to change the particle properties. The dispersions can be printed as an ink for appropriate/ applications. The dispersions can be used to form selectively doped deposits of semiconductor materials such as for the formation of photovoltaic cells or for the formation of printed electronic circuits.

Abstract: Methods for forming coated substrates can be based on depositing material from a flow onto a substrate in which the coating material is formed by a reaction within the flow. In some embodiments, the product materials are formed in a reaction driven by photon energy absorbed from a radiation beam. In additional or alternative embodiments, the flow with the product stream is directed at the substrate. The substrate may be moved relative to the flow. Coating materials can be formed with densities of 65 percent to 95 percent of the fully densified coating material with a very high level of coating uniformity.
