Patent CA-2923897-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MI ZETIAN
IPC: H01L31/0256
Filed: 2016-03-16
Abstract: Important components of direct solar based nanowire enabled chemical processing and electrochemical systems are a high efficiency and highly stable photocathode and 2-photon dual electrodes. The former enables photo-excited electrons that lead to hydrogen generation whereas the later with complementary energy bandgap photoanode and photocathode enables high efficiency, unassisted solar-driven water splitting. Accordingly, it would be beneficial to leverage the high surface areas and self-contained conversion of direct solar illuminated hydrogen generation from such nanowires with multiple junctions for broad solar spectrum absorption by providing monolithically integrated multi-junction photocathodes. It would be further beneficial to provide nanowire based dual-photoelectrode systems that together with a parallel illumination scheme, can fundamentally address these critical challenges. It would be further beneficial for these nanowire based dual-photoelectrode systems to exploit a semiconductor material family that can be tuned across the solar spectrum, can be doped both p-type and n-type and supported large current conduction.

IPC: H04N19/142
Filed: 2015-12-09
Abstract: A method is provided to better detect a scene change to provide a prediction to an encoder to enable more efficient encoding. The method uses a Motion Compensated Temporal Filter (MCTF) that provides motion estimation and is located prior to an encoder. The MCTF provides a Motion Compensated Residual (MCR) used to detect the scene change transition. When a scene is relatively stable, the MCR score is also relatively stable. However, when a scene transition is in process, the MCR score behavior changes, Algorithmically, the MCR score is used by comparing the sliding mean of the MCR score to the sliding median. This comparison highlights the transition points. In the case of a scene cut, the MCR score exhibits a distinct spike. In the case of a fade or dissolve, the MCR score exhibits a transitional period of degradation followed by recovery. By implementing the above detection using the MCR, the location of the I-pictures in the downstream encoding process can be accurately determined for the encoder.
