High Yield Method For Preparing Silicon Nanocrystal With Chemically Accessible Surfaces

View page
US Patent:
7214599, May 8, 2007
Filed:
Jul 23, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/897476
Inventors:
Susan M. Kauzlarich - Davis CA, US
Richard K. Baldwin - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Evergreen Solar Inc. - Marlborough MA
International Classification:
H01L 21/20
US Classification:
438478, 117 89, 117104, 977773, 977775, 977813, 977814
Abstract:
Silicon nanocrystals with chemically accessible surfaces are produced in solution in high yield. Silicon tetrahalide such as silicon tetrachloride (SiCl) can be reduced in organic solvents, such as 1,2-dimethoxyethane(glyme), with soluble reducing agents, such as sodium naphthalenide, to give halide-terminated (e. g. , chloride-terminated) silicon nanocrystals, which can then be easily functionalized with alkyl lithium, Grignard or other reagents to give easily processed silicon nanocrystals with an air and moisture stable surface. The synthesis can be used to prepare alkyl-terminated nanocrystals at ambient temperature and pressure in high yield. The two-step process allows a wide range of surface functionality.

High Efficiency Thermoelectric Power Generation Using Zintl-Type Materials

View page
US Patent:
7728218, Jun 1, 2010
Filed:
Sep 7, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/470998
Inventors:
G. Jeffrey Snyder - Altadena CA, US
Franck Gascoin - Buron Saint-Contest, FR
Shawna Brown - Sacramento CA, US
Susan Kauzlarich - Davis CA, US
Assignee:
California Institute of Technology - Pasadena CA
The Regents of th University of California - Oakland CA
International Classification:
H01L 35/20
H01L 35/12
US Classification:
136240, 1362361
Abstract:
The invention disclosed herein relates to thermoelectrically-active p-type Zintl phase materials as well as devices utilizing such compounds. Such thermoelectric materials and devices may be used to convert thermal energy into electrical energy, or use electrical energy to produce heat or refrigeration. Embodiments of the invention relate to p-type thermoelectric materials related to the compound YbMnSb.

Method For Preparing Group Iv Nanocrystals With Chemically Accessible Surfaces

View page
US Patent:
7267721, Sep 11, 2007
Filed:
Jul 28, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/900965
Inventors:
Susan M. Kauzlarich - Davis CA, US
Richard K. Baldwin - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Evergreen Solar, Inc. - Marlboro MA
International Classification:
C30B 29/08
US Classification:
117 68, 117 75, 117 77, 117 78, 117936
Abstract:
Group IV nanocrystals, such as, for example, silicon nanocrysals and germanium nanocrystals, with chemically accessible surfaces are produced in solution reactions. Group IV halides can be reduced in organic solvents such as 1,2-dimethoxyethane (glyme), with soluable reducing agents to give halide-terminated group IV nanocrystals, which can then be easily functionalized with alkyl lithium, Grignard or other reagents to synthesize group IV nanocrystals having air and moisture stable surfaces. Synthesis can occur at ambient temperature and pressure.

Filed:
Sep 19, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/247757
Inventors:
Susan Kauzlarich - Davis CA, US
Richard Baldwin - Davis CA, US
Assignee:
Evergreen Solar, Inc - Marlborough MA
International Classification:
C30B023/00
C30B025/00
C30B028/12
C30B028/14
US Classification:
117/088000, 117/084000

US Patent:
20050220714, Oct 6, 2005
Filed:
Mar 21, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/086530
Inventors:
Susan Kauzlarich - Davis CA, US
Angelique Louie - Woodland CA, US
International Classification:
A61K049/00
H01L021/00
US Classification:
424009320, 424009600, 438001000
Abstract:
Semiconductor nanoparticles are doped with paramagnetic ions to serve as dual-mode optical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents. These nanoparticles can be constructed in smaller diameters than typical MRI agents. The dual-modality nature allows the particles to be used for in vivo imaging by MRI, and then followed by histology with optical imaging techniques.
