The importance of silicon cannot be undermined - in photovoltaics (PV) as well as in semiconductor industries. However, silicon is very brittle. Silicon cells/wafers crack easily during manufacturing assembly and/or during device operations. Crack Catcher AI uses novel smart fracture mechanics approach with Artificial Intelligence (AI) methodologies to predict and control crack/damage evolution in thin silicon cells/wafers. This is critical as semiconductor 3D integration technology calls for wafer-to-wafer bonding with utmost alignment accuracy and yield/reliability.

Smartphone sensors have been widely researched and published in literature by experts to be used in physics learning. This paper presents the use of smartphone sensors and applications as a measuring instrument in the classical sound wave experiment adapted from physics textbooks at school or university. Tone generator, sound meter, and audio autocorrelation were used in the experiment to visualize sound as a propagating vibration, sound waves as mechanical waves, characteristics of sound waves (loud and soft or high-pitched or low-pitched), sound range, and sound power. The experimental results presented are expected to help students understand the concept of sound waves.

Surface electromyography contains muscular information representing gestures and corresponding forces. However, conventional sEMG-based motion recognition methods, such as pattern classification and regression, have intrinsic limitations due to the complex characteristics of sEMG signals. In this paper, motion intensity, a highly selective sEMG feature proportional to the level of muscle contraction, is proposed. The motion intensity feature allows proportional and simultaneous recognition of multiple degrees of freedom. The proposed method was demonstrated in terms of simultaneous recognition of wrist/hand motions. The result shows that the proposed method can successfully decompose sEMG signals into highly selective signals to target motions. In future works, the proposed method will be adapted for more subjects and to sEMG applications for practical evaluation considering various grasping motions.

Molten salts play a crucial role in Generation IV nuclear energy technology, with chloride salts like NaCl-UCl 3 garnering significant attention due to their distinctive properties and potential applications in fast-spectrum molten salt reactors (MSRs). The corrosive nature of molten salts can cause the dissolution of structural materials, leading to the formation of new species in molten chlorides. In addition, the radioactive decay of nuclear fuels results in the accumulation of fission products in the salts. Understanding the behavior of these corrosion and fission products and their impacts on the properties of molten salts is critical for the design of MSRs. This paper presents a systematic study on the properties of eutectic NaCl-UCl 3 molten salt in the presence of corrosion products (CrCl 2 and CrCl 3 ) and fission products (CsCl and SrCl 2 ) utilizing ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. We focus on essential structural and thermophysical properties such as density, mixing energy, coordination numbers (CN), and Radial Distribution Functions (RDF) with varying compositions of these corrosion and fission products from 0 % to 15.8 %. It is found that the mixing behavior of these corrosion and fission products is strongly driven by their coordination chemistry in eutectic NaCl-UCl 3 . Both CrCl 2 and SrCl 2 have identical coordination to eutectic NaCl-UCl 3 , thus exhibit negative mixing energies at a lower concentration. In contrast, CsCl exhibits significant different coordination compared to NaCl-UCl 3 , resulting to positive mixing energies. Our results offer valuable insights into the coordination chemistry and mixing behavior of corrosion and fission products in chloride molten salts and provide essential data that can be used as input to property databases to supplement experimental data.
