Glass may be recovered from a used solar module through heating and the application of stress (such as mechanical stress). One or more of •junction box removal, •cable removal, and/or •deframing may result in a used solar module comprising glass adhered to a laminate including polymer and a photovoltaic (PV) material such as crystalline silicon. Heat can be applied via conduction, convection and/or radiation to achieve removal of glass. Applied radiation of specific wavelengths may be absorbed by material(s) of interest (e.g., polymer encapsulant) but not by others (e.g., the glass). Following and/or concurrent with the heating, the module may be subject to stress to allow the glass to detach (e.g., in the form of cullets) from the laminate. One approach may be to bend the glass-laminate combination. This bending effectively creates enough stress for the cullets to detach and separate (e.g., fall under the force of gravity).

A stack of thin layers on a transparent substrate (10) includes a first functional layer (50) having reflection properties in the infrared and/or solar radiation range based on silver or silver-containing metal alloy; a second functional layer (100) having reflection properties in the infrared and/or solar radiation range based on titanium nitride and dielectric coatings placed such as to sandwich each of the functional layers The functional layer based on titanium nitride has an extinction coefficient k>3 in the wavelength ranging between 1000 nm to 2500 nm and is positioned above the functional layer based on silver or silver-containing metal alloy. This proposed new type of stack having a combination of two functional layers: one based on silver and the other based on TiN exhibits improved performance (selectivity) as compared to coating stacks comprising a single silver functional layer existing in the art.

In some embodiments, an apparatus for generating a radiation, such as X-rays, includes an emitter, such as an electron gun, of a beam of charged particles; a target, such as an anode, extending a length along a target trajectory that includes at least a curved segment and including a material adapted to emit a radiation, such as X-rays, upon the charged particles impinging on the target; and a scan tube attached to the emitter and enclosing the target. The target has multiple portions, some of which being disposed closer to the emitter than other portions. The apparatus may further include two control components. The first component includes one or more magnets for guiding the charged particle along the target without impinging on it; the second component includes one or more magnets for deflecting the guided charged particles to impinge upon the target at different locations over time.

Optical beamforming device for multiple beams incorporating a universal optical linear crossbar architecture by means whereof the beams are controlled independently in terms of their amplitude and phase, remarkable in that it comprises a photonic crossbar linear optical circuit architecture comprising a coherent multiport interferometer on which it relies; and method for carrying out said device wherein an 1:N splitter (1) followed by N elo modulators (2) provides N parallel optical signals that get subsequently launched into the Xbar matrix, with every signal entering through a respective waveguide row. Each row employs an optical coupling stage to every matrix column, so that part of the modulated optical signal gets forwarded into the respective column, the remaining part continues to the next column. The intra-column beams are then entering respective Variable Amplitude and Phase (VAP) modulation blocks designed as forming Xbar nodes (4), with each of them comprising an optical amplitude modulator followed by a phase modulator, thus generating the amplitude and phase adjustment of the propagating beam. After exiting the Xbar node, the intra-column optical beams are forced to coherently recombine in a N:1 recombination stage comprising a binary tree of 3dB-couplers. More specifically, the N signals recombine sequentially in clusters of two at every combination stage until reaching the single waveguide output connected to a radiating element. This leads to the radiation from every i-th column of a sum of N orthogonal modulated amplitude- and phase- adjusted optical sub-signals The over-the-air combination of M radiated signals each consisting of N orthogonal signals leads to the generation of N radiating beams with each beam generated by an algebraic summation of orthogonal modulated sub-signals corresponding to every input port.
