Skyverse Technology. Skyverse Technology (Skyverse; ) is a partially state-owned publicly listed Chinese company that engages in the development and sale of equipment for testing and measuring semiconductors.

Background 
In 2010, Chen Lu returned to China from the U.S. after obtaining his doctorate from Brown University and working for Rudolph Technologies and KLA-Tencor. He worked at The Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences where is headed an optical instruments and equipment project.

In 2014, the project was spun-out as the company, Skyverse. Chen and his team from the institute moved from Beijing to Shenzhen to set up the company. Shenzhen was selected as it was a business cluster for semiconductor equipment companies. Investors of the company include Huawei, Shenzhen Capital Group and SDIC Venture Capital.

Partnerships of Skyverse include Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation, Yangtze Memory Technologies, Silan Microelectronics, and Tongfu Microelectronics. In 2019, Skyverse started selling its chip semiconductor testing equipment to major Chinese chipmakers partially due to trade tensions with the U.S. It aims to take on KLA Corporation which is the world's biggest semiconductor testing tool provider.

In May 2023, Skyverse held its initial public offering becoming a listed company by listing on the Shanghai Stock Exchange STAR Market.

In December 2024, Skyverse was targeted in a new round of US export controls and added to the United States Department of Commerce's Entity List. Skyverse stated it is not seeing any "significant impact" because it has been preparing for external shocks for the last five years.

Hangzhou Changchuan Technology. Hangzhou Changchuan Technology (CCTech; ) is a publicly listed Chinese company that engages in the development and sale of equipment for testing and measuring semiconductors.

Background 

In 2008, Hangzhou Silan Microelectronics (Silan) executive Zhao Yi left with his team to found his own company, CCTech. The company would acquire most of Silan's equipment development department. The name of company came from the birthplace of Zhao and his wife, Xu Xin which were Sichuan and Changxing respectively. His wife took priority hence the name Changchuan. When CCtech first started, Zhao and Xu worked together with one handling the operations and the other handling the finances. The China Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Fund was one of the investors in CCtech.

In October 2015, CCtech looked to go public and changed its business structure which included getting an external hire to manage the finances going forward.

On 17 April 2017, CCtech held its initial public offering becoming a listed company on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

In 2019, CCtech acquired Changxin Investment Management which held Semiconductor Technologies & Instruments, a Singaporean automated optical inspection equipment manufacturer that was spun out from Texas Instruments.

In 2023, CCtech acquired Changyi technology which held Exis Tech, a Malaysian company that focuses on back-end semiconductor test handlers.

Business Operations 
The relationship between CCtech and Silan was initially very tense. However, later on, Silan gave up the development of testing equipment and turned to acquiring it from CCtech which improved relations. Since both were in Hangzhou and in the same field, the two companies developed a good relationship. Since the beginning, Silan has always been a top five customer of CCtech while CCtech became one of the largest shareholders of Silan.

In 2009, CCtech launched its first digital-analog hybrid tester.

In 2018, CCTech developed China's first fully automatic ultra-precision 12-inch wafer probe station.

CCTech currently is partnered with Chinese semiconductor companies such as Silan, Tongfu Microelectronics, China Resources Microelectronics, and ASE Group.

Nottingham effect. In condensed matter physics, the Nottingham effect is a surface cooling and heating mechanism that occurs during field and thermionic electron emission. The effect is named after physicist Wayne B. Nottingham who explained it in a commentary to 1940 experiments by Gertrude M. Fleming and Joseph E. Henderson.

The temperature at which electron emission goes from heating to cooling is called the Nottingham inversion temperature.

Description 
Notably, the effect can be either heating or cooling of the surface emitting the electrons, depending upon the energy at which they are supplied. Above the Nottingham inversion temperature, the emission energy exceeds the Fermi energy of the electron supply and the emitted electron carries more energy away from the surface than is returned by the supply of a replacement electron, and the net heat flux from the Nottingham effect switches from heating to cooling the cathode.

Along with Joule heating, the Nottingham effect contributes to the thermal equilibrium of electron emission systems, typically becoming the dominant contributor at very high emission current densities.  It comes into play in the operation of field emission array cathodes and other devices that rely upon stimulating Fowler-Nordheim electron emission, usually at the apex of a sharp tip used to create a field enhancement effect.  In extreme cases, the Nottingham effect can heat the emitter tips to temperatures exceeding the melting point of the tip material, causing the tip to deform and emit material that may cause a vacuum arc; this is a significant failure mode for tip-based cathodes.

It develops commercial EV charging systems, providing solutions tailored to commercial fleets in electrification of the transportation industry with sustainable and scalable solutions.

The company is recognized for its innovation under the transport industry. It has offices in California, Michigan, Virginia (in the United States) and in Quebec (in Canada).

History
In 2018, two of the most seasoned electric vehicle service equipment pros in the business started InCharge Energy, both industry veterans, Cameron Funk and Terry O'Day could see the rapid shift to battery powered, electric vehicles happening globally within consumer sectors (before autonomous driving was a thing), easily deducing that electrification made even more economic sense commercially. The two trailblazers put together a band of the brightest stars with one vision in mind; to foster community and environmental health, improve quality life for all, and provide opportunity using their new technology platform. Electric cars require charging infrastructure InCharge was subsequently born with their development and engineering experience (plus some industry knowledge from both having key environmental positions in government) leading the way.

In 2022, ABB acquired InCharge Energy with a controlling stake which strengthen the former's EV charging solutions in the United States.

On April 23, 2022, the company has launched Charging-as-a-Service (CaaS) for commercial fleets that supports the EV charging infrastructure. It offers subscription on a monthly or variable basis without directly owning and operating the infrastructure.

EagleEye (satellite). EagleEye is an Earth observation satellite in very low Earth orbit. It is the first satellite developed and operated by the Polish Space Agency (POLSA), as previous Polish satellites, PW-Sat, BRITE, and Intuition-1, were designed and operated by private firms.

Development
Development of EagleEye began in April 2020 as a collaboration between a consortium of industrial and scientific organizations led by Creotech, with contributions from the Space Research Centre and Scanway. The basis for EagleEye was largely cannibalized from the earlier Creotech project HyperSat, which began development in 2017 as a modular platform for small satellites.

The satellite was designed locally in Poland from the ground up, but some components, namely microprocessors, needed to be imported. A military satellite, most of it was developed and designed by the Space Research Centre as it transitioned into the Polish Space Agency, while Creotech assembled most of the parts.
 
On March 2, 2023, POLSA's vice-president Michal Wiercinski attended the Australian International Airshow to win over EagleEye subcontractors. The Polish government viewed the satellite's development as a priority due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, as one of the main uses of the satellite would be observing troop movements. However, EagleEye will also have civilian uses to monitor agriculture.

At 50kg, EagleEye is the largest and heaviest Polish satellite. Its resolution is one meter per pixel, and it can take images in both visible and infrared light. EagleEye successfully completed it's qualification tests in April 2024.

Mission
EagleEye was launched on board the SpaceX Falcon 9 Transporter-11 on August 15, 2024.

By August 17, Creotech reported that the first phase of the EagleEye mission was successful, having established communications and received all parameters for further operations.

However, by August 25, Creotech reported that they were failing to properly receive data from EagleEye. By September 3, Creotech reported that they had narrowed the issue down to either an improper orbit, or voltage regulators in the satellite's power supply shutting systems off to prevent surges as the solar panels were generating too much power.

Impact
The first satellite domestically assembled by Polish firms and operated by POLSA, the EagleEye was described as a "breakthrough moment" for the Polish space industry, as Poland seeks to become a larger player in the European Space Agency in an effort to create more high-tech jobs. Additionally, it proved that Poland had crossed the main entry barrier for spaceflight, in the form of the highly complex engineering needed to make the satellite.
