SOLAR LIQUID POWER (SLP)

Solar Liquid Power (SLP)
Solar Liquid Power (SLP), the result of using advanced and integrated sciences producing an alternative renewable power source to structured solar panels or films. Through the use of nano-science, electrochemistry and a unique combination of physics, quantum thermodynamics, inorganic and organic chemistry and material science achieved altering molecular mass at the nano level to adsorb radiant energy from the sun within a coating and convert this energy into immediately usable electrical power. Solar Liquid Power (SLP), as it became known from its science inventor, will be able to provide nearly endless power from the Sun to just about anything as a coating, or spray and also when applied directly to materials and fabrics.

HOW DOES SOLAR LIQUID POWER WORK
Using Quantum thermodynamics efficiency methodology, Solar cells operate as quantum energy conversion devices, and are therefore subject to the "thermodynamic efficiency limit". Photons and Electrons with energy below the band gap of the absorber material cannot generate a hole-electron pair, and so their energy is not converted to useful output and only generatesheat if absorbed. For photons with an energy above the band gap energy, only a fraction of the energy above the band gap can be converted to useful output. When a photon of greater energy is absorbed, the excess energy above the band gap is converted to kinetic energy of the carrier combination. The excess kinetic energy is converted to heat through photon interactions as the kinetic energy of the carriers slows to equilibrium velocity. In contrast, Solar Liquid Power (SLP) science is not a fixed silicon cell but a latex coating level liquid application that is “pre-tuned “ against the full spectrum (UV-A, B, C, Visible, and Infrared) with multiple band gap absorber materials able to more efficiently convert the solar spectrum. By using multiple band gaps in the tuned liquid, the solar spectrum is broken down into smaller bins where the thermodynamic efficiency limit is higher for each bin than for any fixed silicon based cell. The multiplicity of this adsorption result in the SLP science, extends the amount of radiant energy from a typical solar panel and film rate of 6-8 hours, to the SLP rate of 12-14 hours, as the SLP requires no tilting or pointing as well, to achieve its full spectrum potential. Thus, under these conditions, solar liquid power produced at no less than 40% efficiency with a 100 cm2 (0.01 m2) surface area can be expected to produce approximately 4.4 watts of power. The raw (unbonded) figures are nearly 60% with the understanding that once bonded and fused using Nanotechnology and Electrochemical means of the highest quality instrumentation, would effectuate an SLP with no less that 42.1% efficiency and possibly more depending on the quality of the laboratory instrumentation working at 3-1300nm particle levels.

INVENTOR BACKGROUND
A 40year background in fringe sciences and engineering having invented some of the most unique and useful systems and solutions. In 2002 he won the crystal '" INTEROP" award for the most innovative interoperable communication system called “Commander Pack” and especially the Commander Gauntlet which forever changed the definition of wearable computing to a complete wearable communications solution. So unique and never before in a design, his systems where requested for the 2004 CTIA www.ctia.org event and the technology runway in Atlanta, Georgia to be viewed. His innovations came after visiting Ground Zero in New York City interviewing officials and witnesses on the communications interoperability void which existed across radios, walkie-talkies, cell phones and satellite phones. His Commander Gauntlet, placed all these systems on the wrists and forearms of all responders, to assure all forms of communications including Software-defined radio (SDR) could now be made available to all responders worldwide for use anytime and from anyplace on Earth. The aftermath of 911 created concerns of Safety across many areas. The idea of “smart” containers was just starting to be considered in the Maritime world. Doug presented in 2005 to the Commonwealth Technology Organization (CTO) in London www.cto.int a new concept on “smart container management” dispelling the ideas that outdoor RFID (radio frequency identification) and other systems would secure containers that were not six (6) sided secure, which none of these quickly developed systems provided. In addition, the growing concept of creating high-tech “smart containers” would now place extraordinary burden on the entire shipping system not having an economically sound transformational path to much higher trained dock personnel, but also the realization that more IT related maintenance would be required at the dock, which was clearly not going to work for any major shipping line. His eventual CCATS system (Container Communications and Tracking System) was a highly sophisticated metallic self-contained sealed device to be implanted inside all containers with trickle charged power from any light source, providing “all sides” security from the inside, and constantly monitoring various environmental particles including WMD chemical signatures, within each container transmitting any alarms wirelessly to the ship’s bridge, which could also easily be routed to the Ports for advanced notice.

His years of work on discovering Solar Liquid Power using his hybrid science idea could alter the course for the renewable energy industry's use of Solar. His public statements are that “Solar Liquid Power as a energy source is for the people, the masses, and should be affordable for all.” SLP can be used across just about any application as a spray (greater than 40% efficient, producing around 4.4watt per 100 cm²) embedded in OEM building materials, powering electronics, powering transportation, powering life. Doug Linman as the father of Solar Liquid Power (SLP), continues to develop the future applications use of SLP to include Aerospace, Maritime and Military.

PERSONAL AND FAMILY
Doug Linman served in the Military in the 3rd Army, 4th Battalion 64th Armored Divison 1968-1971. Returning from wartime he re-entered Defense systems work, then sought-out Aerospace challenges, developing numerous systems and global designs which eventually led to architecting a special 3tiered network for tracking commercial space craft in low earth orbit to 99.9999% reliability. These continuous demanding efforts finally brought fourth his own R&D company in 2001 to focus his cumulative Doctoral work in electrochemistry and electrical engineering into developing practical applications to solve significant environmental issues. He created the science and founded SUNTCO to help others deliver this giant leap in renewable energy initially for homes and businesses, then as a coating to automobiles and electronics, followed by military and aerospace applications. His father Douglas Gerrard Ralston Linman, was one of several chosen to work in the OSS Office of Strategic Services before the existence of the CIA and served in WWII during the liberation of France and other missions. Doug's father was also an exceptional writer as a degreed Journalist. He died in 1965 having supported James Broyhill and President John F. Kennedy as a ghostwriter for their book works. He was also an Ambassador to Ecuador during the early 1960’s before his death. Linman, like his father, is also an accomplished musician, heavily involved in Global Energy Issues, Environmental Issues, city economic development, and sits on various Executive Boards across Museum, Performing Arts, Design Approval Boards and City Events support having been awarded various volunteering and business awards.
