UNSW has boosted the performance of its Laser Doping Selective 
Emitter (LDSE) solar cell, a ground-breaking technology first developed by UNSW 
engineers 
The Technology 
The LDSE technology utilizes the properties of a laser in the presence of a 
phosphorus doping source to melt a silicon wafer. This process incorporates 
phosphorus dopants into the molten silicon thereby exposing the silicon surface. 
Subsequent self-aligned metal contact formation is achieved with light-induced 
plating. &nbsp;Novel firing conditions used in the LDSE technology facilitate 
the achievement of Voc values ap...]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 03 Mar 2013 17:10:12 GMT</pubDate><author>info@nsinnovations.com.au</author><guid>http://unsw.technologypublisher.com/tech/Superior_Manufacturing_Techniques_for_Solar_Cells</guid></item><item><title>Unique Techniques for Printing High Efficiency Solar Cells</title><caseId>05_1910</caseId><link>http://unsw.technologypublisher.com/tech/Unique_Techniques_for_Printing_High_Efficiency_Solar_Cells</link><description>
UNSW has developed new dielectric patterning techniques to replace 
photolithography. Less steps, less and cheaper chemicals for manufacturing high 
efficiency solar cells.

The Technology
UNSW holds the world record for the efficiency of single junction silicon 
solar cell. The record of 25.0% was achieved using photolithography, which is 
too expensive for large scale commercial implementation.
The UNSW patterning techniques, which use inkjet printing or aerosol jet 
printing, are cheaper than photolithography. They avoid the use of expensive 
masks and mask aligners.

We have produced a series of monoclonal antibodies that bind 
to the ubiquitous basement membrane molecule, perlecan. These are useful as 
research reagents in various techniques such as ELISAs, immunocytochemistry and 
Western blotting to detect the presence and nature of perlecan produced by 
various cells. These will also be useful as probes of biological samples and may 
have utility as diagnostics of diseases like arthritis and cancer.
Perlecan (HSPG2) is a multi-functional heparan sulfate 
proteoglycan, which was originally isolated from Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS)

The Technology is available under licence for FREE
Biofilms are associated with a number of diseases and chronic infections, including cystic fibrosis and chronic wounds. Biofilms also form on medical equipment, catheters as well as cause industrial fouling and corrosion.
Biofilm infections are problematic as the bacteria cannot be treated with existing antimicrobial agents. UNSW researchers have demonstrated that nitric oxide plays a key role in the dispersal of biofilms and have developed unique nitric oxi...</description><pubDate>Sun, 02 Dec 2012 14:44:06 GMT</pubDate><author>info@nsinnovations.com.au</author><guid>http://unsw.technologypublisher.com/tech/A_New_Weapon_to_Control_Bacterial_Biofilms</guid></item><item><title>Improved Fuel System for Scramjets</title><caseId>11_2652</caseId><link>http://unsw.technologypublisher.com/tech/Improved_Fuel_System_for_Scramjets</link><description>






A Fuel System developed to increase the energy density and lower the 
ionisation threshold for hydrogen and hydrocarbon fuel in high speed air 
breathing engines such as scramjets.
The Technology
The development of scramjet technologies has 
suffered from the need to improve reliability and reduce requirements for 
ignition speeds and minimum operating temperatures. Current fuel systems used 
for the development of scramjets and other high speed engines require high

A laser induced ignition system developed for Scramjet engines and 
other gaseous flows.
The Technology
The development of scramjet technologies has 
suffered from the need to improve reliability and reduce ignition speeds and 
temperatures. Various methods of ignition have been used to overcome these 
issues, for example high energy electrical arcs, each of which raises new issues 
such as energy consumption. Research at UNSW’s Australian Defence Force Academy 
has developed a highly controllable, relatively low energy ignition system for 
gaseous fuel using a directed laser.

Spondyloarthropathies (SpAs) are a family of inflammatory 
processes associated with HLA B27 polymorphism that develop into a number of 
conditions such as fusion of the spine or ankylosing spondylitis (AS), Reiter’s 
syndrome (or reactive arthritis), psoriatic arthritis, Crohn’s disease (a type 
of IBD) and uveitis.
Our researchers believe that they have discovered 
the mechanism of action for SpAs, based on shared homology of specific 
peptide sequences that occur in Chlamydia trachomatis and also in a protein 
called lumican which is preferentially and abundantly expressed in...</description><pubDate>Wed, 27 Oct 2010 20:23:32 GMT</pubDate><author>info@nsinnovations.com.au</author><guid>http://unsw.technologypublisher.com/tech/Easing_the_Pain_of_Inflammation_-_Arthritis_Vaccine</guid></item><item><title>Helping our Elderly:  Cell-based Tools for Alzheimer’s Disease Drug Screening</title><caseId>10_2468</caseId><link>http://unsw.technologypublisher.com/tech?title=Helping_our_Elderly%3a__Cell-based_Tools_for_Alzheimer%e2%80%99s_Disease_Drug_Screening</link><description><![CDATA[
