Researchers in Prof. Amin Arbabian's laboratory have developed a modular RF-Ultrasound architecture to download data, upload data or wirelessly charge devices implanted deep in the body.
Engineers in Prof. Anthony Kovscek's laboratory have developed a patented, dual-function core holder apparatus that can be used in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) experiments to both saturate the core and perform spontaneous imbibition analysis.
Stanford researchers have discovered a novel method of doping nanowires (NW) and thin films (TF) that greatly improves surface area and performance. The sol-flame method is a fast, simple and low cost way to introduce dopants into NW and TF for a wide variety of applications.
Stanford researchers have developed an architecture and control scheme for the coordination of distributed energy resources (DER), such as solar and storage, to minimize operation cost, enhance network reliability, and provide DER aggregation.
Researchers in Prof. Hemamala Karunadasa's laboratory have developed inexpensive, robust, high capacity hybrid materials for reversible or irreversible capture of halogens (chlorine, bromine, and iodine gas).
Researchers in Prof. Michael McGehee's laboratory have developed a glass architecture that employs reversible metal electrodeposition for fast-switching smart windows with high contrast ratio and durable cycle life.
Stanford engineers have developed an efficient photoelectrochemical cell (PEC) that uses a mixed ion electron conductor (MIEC) heterojunction to enable high temperature (hundreds of oC) conversion of concentrated sunlight to chemical fuel (such as hydrogen).
Stanford researchers developed a wireless power transfer mechanism that will charge devices while on the move, or in use. The mechanism uses a parity-time symmetric circuit incorporating a nonlinear gain saturation element.
Researchers in Dr. Alfred Spormann's lab have developed a method of using co-cultures to enhance microbial electrosynthesis to allow more efficient production of desired products such as biofuel.
Stanford researchers at SLAC have designed a multi-frequency klystron that achieves efficiencies higher than conventional single frequency klystrons and simultaneously delivers substantial power at higher harmonic(s).
Enzymatically active hydrogenase is synthesized in a cell-free reaction. The hydrogenases are synthesized in a cell-free reaction comprising a cell extract derived from microbial strains expressing at least one hydrogenase accessory protein.
Stanford researchers at the Fan Group have designed and tested a highly efficient radiative cooler prototype with the following record-breaking performance results:
