Atomically Smooth Nanoporous Alumina Thin Films
A novel method of producing near-atomically smooth and porous alumina thin films with a tunable index of refraction
Background
Typically, high quality thin films are produced via vacuum-based techniques, though the nature of this technique makes it difficult to produce porous films. In lieu of vacuum techniques, solution processing is a low-energy...

Scalable two-phase cooling plates
Reference #: 01575
The University of South Carolina is offering licensing opportunities for Scalable two-phase cooling plates
Background:
Two-phase cooling usually fails at relatively low heat loads due to the loss of liquid supply. For real applications, two-phase cooling technologies need to match the size of electronic components. However, the...

Suspensions and solutions of dyes that enable colored coatings with tunable infrared performance
INV-21076
Background
Traditionally, paints are granted color by solid, inorganic pigments evenly dispersed throughout their matrix. These pigments absorb most wavelengths of light but reflect a few remaining wavelengths, which generates the color we perceive with our eyes. Longer wavelengths (LWs) which carry heat, are also absorbed, and reflected...

Deep-scaling of deep ultraviolet micro-sized emitters and modular interconnection thereof
Reference #: 01529
The University of South Carolina is offering licensing opportunities for Deep scaling of deep ultraviolet micro-sized emitters and modular interconnection thereof.
Background:
One of the main problems with deep ultraviolet (DUV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is that they get hot while they are operating, limiting the amount of power...

Methods for creating thermally conductive boron nitride films and coatings on component surfaces
INV-20002
Background
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) particles are an industrialized filler that provides increased thermal conductivity to resin systems. hBN particles have high thermal conductivities with the long axis of the crystal exhibiting ~300-600 W/mK and the short-axis exhibiting ~20-40 W/mK. Further, hBN is a good dielectric. This combination...
