High Voltage Photovoltaic Cells with High EfficiencyA novel photovoltaic cell is described for converting sunlight to electricity at higher efficiency relative to existing cells, and with improved flexibility for integration in modules, both one-sun and concentrating. The new cell contains many small sub-cells, which are internally connected in series. Such configurations are called Monolithic Integrated Modules (MIM) and they are capable of providing very high open circuit voltage. Our MIM design is based on a monolithic device with vertical PN junctions with significant expected advantages in performance relative to existing MIM designs: higher voltage; smaller contact area and no front metallization grid, leading to higher efficiency; better utilization of the solar spectrum; and better matching to integration in modules including concentrator modules. High-voltage cells can be electrically connected in parallel instead of series, leading to nearly independent operation (voltage-coupled instead of current-coupled) even under non-uniform illumination and even partial shading conditions. This will improve the overall performance of a photovoltaic system, and permit a less demanding and less expensive optical design. Project ID : 6-2011-180FUNDITEC posted this:

High-definition respiratory monitoring tool - Bainisha's Twin Chest SystemCurrent technology Current systems for measuring/monitoring respiratory movements (such as Thorax displacement) @ medical level, rely on one single technology: Inertial Measurement Units (IMU) aka "accelerometry". The resulting data of such measurements however are very often inadequate & hard or impossible to interpret. Problem E.g. the raw IMU-data output of coughing may look exactly the same as the raw IMU-data of riding a bike on really bumpy road ! When such type of confusion arises, it is impossible to distinguish between very different events. Solution A second sensor technology is added: a very thin, ultra-stretchable, very accurate displacement sensor. This sensor is fixed to the body as a simple self-adhesive patch. The fixation is of such a high quality and "integrates" with the skin so thoroughly, that it is nick-named a "Second Skin"-sensor. Together with the on-board IMU the "Second Skin" sensor forms a Sensor Fusion System. I.e. by cross-linking the raw data of two very different sensor concepts all uncertainties, "grey"-zones and impossible to interpret situations are eliminated. The sensor-fusion concept also widens and multiplies the capabilities for capturing a multitude of different types of "body language/events"

Higher Efficiency of CRISPR Gene Editing Using Chimeric Cas9CRISPR-Cas9 is a powerful tool for genome editing, widely used for basic research and the development of treatments for genetic diseases. However, its efficiency is currently limited. The current technology is a new chimeric Cas9 fused to a domain that recruits DNA repair factors directly to the genomic site that is being edited, thus doubling the efficiency of ‘error-free’ genome editing. This novel and highly efficient chimeric version of the Cas9 endonuclease is thus particularly relevant for clinical gene therapy applications.

Highly Selective Fluorescent Biosensor for Labeling His-Tagged ProteinsA rapid, label-free biosensor for detecting specific conformation of His-tag labeled proteins, accessible for use in both academic- and commercial-R&D was invented at the Weizmann Institute of Science. This fluorescent biosensor detects and labels His-tagged proteins in complex environments, such as living cells, while offering high sensitivity, speed, and cost-effectiveness. Fluorescent biosensing has become a valuable tool in analytical research, while at the same time the poly-histidine tag (His-tag) has become the most commonly used tag for protein labeling. However, commercial products for labeling and detecting conformational changes in His-labeled proteins suffer from three main limitations: First is their inability to identify specific changes in the protein conformation. Second, even if such changes are detected, labeling of His-tag proteins is usually very laborious. Third, commercial probes tend to be large and consequently can interfere with the proteins function. Therefore, there is a need for a small, direct, and non-interfering fluorescent probe for detection of conformational changes. Prof. Margulies and his team have developed a first of its kind fluorescent molecule that provides detection of changes to the surface of His-labeled proteins. Subsequently, labeling proteins only if they are in a specific conformation. The biosensor exhibits high affinity, excellent signal-to-noise ratio and can be easily applied with no fixation or tedious protocols. Using the technology, many proteins and specific conformations can now be labeled and studied for the first time (proteins that were already successfully labeled using the biosensor: Calmodulin, B-cell lymphoma 2, G-protein).

Highly Sensitive Nanoscale Scanning Magnetic and Thermal SensorA new technology developed by a group of researchers from the Weizmann Institute is a nanoscale sensor-on-tip for local magnetic signals and thermal dissipation with state-of-the-art sensitivity and spatial resolution. Detecting a signal as low as the magnetic moment of a single electron is of key technological importance for applications ranging from electronics (e.g., hard discs, magnetic RAM and spin valves) to biotechnology applications, including enhanced tissue and organ imaging and MRI. Furthermore, investigation of energy dissipation on the nanoscale is of major interest in quantum systems in which the dissipation mechanism is related to preservation of quantum information, which is of particular importance in the field of quantum computing. To date, there are several local magnetic imaging methods, such as scanning superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUID), magnetic force microscopy and Lorentz microscopy. Scanning SQUID microscopy is a promising technology, having the highest field sensitivity (1 micro-Gauss), however, it has a rather poor spatial resolution (of several microns). Energy dissipation is another important imaging parameter, which is not readily measurable on the nanometer scale and existing thermal imaging methods are not sensitive enough for studying quantum systems and are unsuitable for low temperature operation. Here, we propose a novel sensor device comprising a nanoscale SQUID-based probe. The fabrication method, enables the miniaturization of the sensor to an effective diameter of 1 ?B/Hz1/2) and micro-Kelvin thermal resolution, whereas commercially available thermal scanning systems are limited to an order of 10 milli-Kelvin.

Homogeneous Dispersion of CNT Composites for Improved Conductivity, Bucky PapersBattery and capacitor electrode technologies available in the industry today, are struggling to keep up with rapidly advancing applications that require high power and energy density such as electric vehicles, solar cells and telecommunications systems. One of the leading solutions to this problem are CNT-based films, exhibiting excellent conductivity with potentially moderate costs, yet current methods for their formation are both complicated and expensive or hamper the qualities of the material, causing conductivity reduction. A new technology developed by a group of researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science is simple and potentially cost-effective, preserves the high electrical qualities of the original CNTs and can be easily used to form large surfaces. This technology involves a simple assembly method of organic nanocrystal combined with carbon nanotubes (ONC)/(CNT) to form self-supporting hybrid films with conductivities as high as 5.78 S/m, and excellent thermal stability (of up to ~300 °C). The characteristics of the films enable their use as porous electrodes, with easily adjustable pore sizes. These films can then be straightforwardly incorporated into existing platforms such as solar cells, batteries and super capacitors, improving their energy and power density capabilities. Successful incorporation of electrodes into perovskite solar cells has already been demonstrated to improve its efficiency and photo-stability and promising preliminary results were recently demonstrated for the utilization of ONC porous electrodes as separators in supercapacitors.

How to Distinguish Bacteria and Fungi: From Morphology to SequencingWhen classifying bacteria and fungi, morphological features are v¬ery relevant. Colony morphology is a useful tool widely used to classify and define them by researchers. Carefully studied and used during these experiments are the colony properties of individual bacterial and fungal colonies. Compared to fungi, bacteria easily thrive on nutrient-rich culture media. Phenotypically distinct-looking colonies are formed by various species of bacteria and fungi. The size, shape, texture, color, margins of the colonies vary.
