A rechargeable battery cell a casing and first and second electrode materials separately positioned in the casing. A mechanical impulse element is positioned to mechanically move and dislodge gas bubbles from at least one of the first and second electrode materials in response to activation. In some embodiments the mechanical impulse element can include a vibratory piezoelectric element. In other embodiments, a gas vent in the battery cell can be used to release dislodged gas bubbles.

Rechargeable cell architecture

A rechargeable battery cell includes first and second electrode materials. A first collector defining a chamber array with a plurality of chambers is electrically connected to each other. A plurality of second electrode material and second collectors are positioned within each of the plurality of chambers. A first electrode material is positioned within the first collector to surround the second electrode material, with the second electrode material separated from the first electrode material by a separator.

Embodiments of the present application relate to illumination devices using luminescent nanostructures. An illumination device includes a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer, a hole transport layer, an electron transport layer and a material layer that includes a plurality of luminescent nanostructures. The hole transport layer and the electron transport layer are each disposed between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer. The material layer is disposed between the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer and includes one or more discontinuities in its thickness such that the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer contact each other at the one or more discontinuities. Resonant energy transfer occurs between the luminescent nanostructures and excitons at the discontinuities.

Embodiments of the present application relate to the use of quantum dots mixed with spacer particles. An illumination device includes a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer, and an active layer disposed between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer. The active layer includes a plurality of quantum dots that emit light when an electric field is generated between the first and second conductive layers. The quantum dots are interspersed with spacer particles that do not emit light when the electric field is generated between the first and second conductive layers.
