Two-dimensional (2D) crystals offer a unique platform due to their remarkable and contrasting spintronic properties, such as weak spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in graphene and strong SOC in molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). Here we combine graphene and MoS2 in a van der Waals heterostructure (vdWh) to demonstrate the electric gate control of the spin current and spin lifetime at room temperature. By per...

The Bass Sleeve uses an Arduino board with a combination of buttons, switches, flex sensors, force sensing resistors, and an accelerometer to map the ancillary movements of a performer to sampling, real-time audio and video processing including pitch shifting, delay, low pass filtering, and onscreen video movement. The device was created to augment the existing functions of the electric bass an...

For the sake of high-efficiency energy recycling and brake security for series-parallel hybrid electric vehicle, an integrated brake system with an electric consuming brake subsystem and advanced strategy is proposed. The specific structure of electric consuming brake subsystem is introduced. The brake processes in different brake conditions are analyzed. A brake control strategy relying on the...

In emerging electric power systems, increased transactions often lead to the situations where the system no longer remains in secure operating region. The flexible Ac transmission system (FACTS) controllers can play an important role in the power system security enhancement. However, due to high capital investment, it is necessary to locate these controllers optimally in the power system. FACTS...

How to deal with and use of electricity efficiently from the thermoacoustic power generation system, including the rectifier, inverter, storage, are another question faced with. The reason was analyzed based on thermal acoustic instability and the oscillation amplitude difference. The idea was put forward how to solve thermoacoustic wave instability or oscillatory amplitude difference. If power...

This study suggests using thermoelectric element to generate electric energy from the heat source efficiently. This generator system consists of a Heater, the Lower Heat Transfer Plate to absorb heat from the Heater, Two-Stage Thermoelectric Device module to generate the electric power with the heat transferred from the Lower Heat Transfer Plate, the Upper Heat Transfer Plate to convey the heat...
