A system and method for fabricating a FED device is disclosed. A sink communication device includes a sink network clock synchronized with the source network clock, a sink streaming clock associated with processing of audio or video data, and a sink time stamp mechanism to compare a sink streaming clock value with the source streaming clock value, and adjust the sink streaming clock based on the comparison. The power module is characterized in that an inductance component of at least one of the first and second connection means is adjusted so that the inductance component between the emitter electrode on the first power device and the emitter lead is substantially equal to that between the emitter electrode on the second power device and the emitter lead. Two specific examples of the present invention include a cascaded, multi-level inverter, or a variant referred to as the multi-source, flying source inverter, whose ac input voltage is derived from an electromagnetic generatorator. Also provided herein is a material made according to the method, designated either as EMM-19 or as EMM-19*, and a method of using same to adsorb andor separate gases, such as carbon dioxide.
