A Polaron modulator
A Polaron modulator was an advanced device capable of using polarons to enhance shielding aboard starships. It was a rare item, that not many ships carried. One species that employed them were the Kinjal.
In 2377, the Nygeans and the USS Voyager while working together to escape the Void, realized they needed a polaron modulator to handle the stresses of creating a shield bubble around all of the Alliance's ships. Bosaal raided a Kinjal frigate, and killed the crew to get one, citing "they won't be needing it anymore." Captain Janeway expelled him from the Alliance, and the Nygeans and B'Elanna Torres had to create one from scratch. Eventually, they were successful, and the Alliance ships were able to create a big enough shield bubble around their ships to escape the void. (VOY: "The Void")
