Soteria consortium partnership builds lithium-ion batteries with 26% higher energy density and >80% less copper and aluminum

DuPont Electronics & Industrial, Steinerfilm and Polaris Battery Labs have combined their capabilities to build batteries that have 26% higher energy density and use 80% less copper and aluminum than comparable batteries made with traditional materials. The improved energy density will increase the range of electric vehicles, make electric aviation more feasible and improve portable electronics.  More significantly, as electric vehicles grow more prevalent, this technology can reduce the dependence on scarce metals such as copper and aluminum that are needed for the other parts of the electric vehicles. With copper consumption in electric vehicles predicted to increase to 4 million tons annually by 2040, this could save millions of tons of copper. The current collectors were made from thermally stable, high strength DuPont™ Kapton® polyimide film, metallized by Steinerfilm to have 500 nm of metal on each side.  At 5 microns total thickness, they are the lightest, thinnest current collectors for lithium-ion batteries available, and use only 17% of the aluminum and copper used in normal batteries. Polaris Battery Labs combined these in a traditional format with an LCO cathode, graphite anode and electrolyte to produce a battery with over 26% higher energy density than the batteries made side-by-side with traditional […]

색 측정의 속도와 정확도를 높이는 ams의 AS7343 멀티 스펙트럼 센서

광학 솔루션의 글로벌 리더인 ams OSRAM이 AS7343 출시로 분광 센서 포트폴리오를 광범위하게 확장했다. 이 센서는 멀티 채널 색상 분석과 XYZ 센서 기술을 결합해 육안으로 빛의 색상과 강도를 측정하는 에이엠에스 오스람의 최초의 제품이다.  색도계, 휴대용 분광계, 소비자 기기에 채용되면 AS7343은 컬러매칭, 조명 제어 및 분광 분석의 응용 분야 사용자에게 생산성, 유연성, 기능성을 제공하게 된다. 이 신제품 다목적 센서는 빈번하고 정확한 측정이 필요한 응용 분야의 색상 분석용으로  이상적이다. 예를 들어, 온실이나 실내 농장에서는 원예용 조명의 분광 특성을 최적화하고 수확량과 에너지 효율성을 극대화하기 위해 색상 분석을 사용한다. 다양한 농작물의 성장은 가시 광선 스펙트럼의 여러 다른 기능으로 인해 촉진된다.  “AS7343은 농작물에 방사된 빛의 스펙트럼 측정을 빠르고 정확하게 제공한다. 이로 인해 본 센서는 각기 다른 식물 종에 적합한 빛의 요건과 매칭된다.” 고 언급한 ams OSRAM의 광학 센서 사업부 선임 마케팅 매니저인 케빈 젠슨(Kevin Jensen)은 “조명 설정은 필요에 따라 해당되는 스펙트럼에서 빛이 나오도록 조정될 수  있다”고 설명했다. 정밀한 스펙트럼 분석을 수행하는 소형 칩 14채널 AS7343은 3.1mm x 2mm x 1mm 플랫 패키지에 하우징된 칩이다. 이 칩은 광원 또는 반사광의 분광스펙트럼을 측정하는 분광기와 같은 기능을 하며  NIR채널 및 XYZ 기능을 포함해 가시 광선 스펙트럼에는 12개 동일한 간격의 측정 채널이 있다.  이전 제품 AS7341과는 다르게 AS7343는 멀티 채널 스펙트럼 센서와 XYZ 기술이 결합되었다. XYZ 채널은 육안으로 색상을 인식하는 표준 모델인 CIE 1931 XYZ 색상 공간에 일치한다. AS7343은 색 좌표로 알려진 XYZ 값을 직접 생성하는 기능으로 사용자에게 전체 스펙트럼 분석 또는 더 간단한 색상 스윕을 선택할 수 있는 유연성을 제공한다. 젠슨 매니저는 “AS7343을 사용하면 관심있는 대표적인 색상을  빠르게 전환하거나 필요에 따라 전체 해상도로 측정할 수 있다. 또한 센서의 멀티채널 기능을 통해 사용자는 메타메리즘(metamerism) 이라고 하는 잘못된 색상 매칭에 대한 육안의 민감성도 보정할 수 있으므로 더 정확한 색상 재현이 가능하다“고 강조했다. AS7343은 모든 광원과 반사광의 특징적인 스팩트럼 시그니처를 생성한다. 최대 6개의 채널을 동시에 사용할 수 있으므로 보다 유연한 사용이 가능하다. 이 신제품은 이전의 AS7341보다 최대 4배 민 감도가 높아 스펙트럼 전반에 걸쳐 보다 균형잡힌 색상 인식과 신호 분석이 향상되었다. 또한 자동 ADC 재구성은 더 빠른 멀티 채널 판독을 가능케 한다. 센서 크기가 작기 때문에 공간 제약이 있는 응용 분야에 적용하기 간편한 것도 또 다른 특징이다. 광범위한 응용 원예 조명과 같은 응용 분야에서는 일반적으로 분광 스펙트럼의 고해상도 측정을 제공하는  단일 센서 만으로도 충분하다. 그러나 더 높은 해상도가 필요한 경우, 두 개 이상의 AS7343 소자의 필터 반응 곡선을 겹치도록 구성하면 각 채널의 대역폭을 줄이고 측정 해상도를 높일 수 있다. 이 기술은 AS7341과 함께 사용 가능하다. AS7343 센서는 액체 또는 물질의 크로마토그래피 분석이 가능해 식물의 엽록소 농도 측정과 같은 원예 응용 분야에 적합하다. AS7343의 또 다른 응용 분야는 화재 경보기 및 열 경보기에서 연기 분광 시그니처 감지 기능이다. AS7343의 분광 분석을 통해 연기 센서는 타는 나무에서부터 플라스틱 또는 수증기에 이르기까지 다양한 유형의 연기를 구별할 수 있다.
