technique‚ the contactless energy transfer system (CETS)‚ by which electrical energy may be transmitted‚ without electrical connection or physical contact‚ through nonmagnetic media of low conductivity. The CETS‚ which has been used to transfer up to 5 kW across a 10-mm gap‚ employs high-frequency magnetic coupling and enables plug-in power connections to be made in wet or hazardous environmental conditions without the risk of electric shock‚ short circuiting‚ or sparking. Energy may be transmitted without

Direct energy conversion system Direct energy conversion systems that could operate in the 100-700°C temperature range with high efficiencies (>30%) provide an attractive compact alternative to internal combustion engines for many military applications. They will also expand the possibilities for waste heat recovery applications. The core of the solution we are proposing is a metal/semiconductor nanocomposite that will allow us to modify four intrinsic material properties in order to fabricate
