Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus related to solar water splitting. In one aspect, a structure includes a plurality of first nanowires, the plurality of first nanowires comprising an n-type semiconductor or a p-type semiconductor. The structure further includes a second nanowire, the second nanowire comprising the n-type semiconductor or the p-type semiconductor, the second nanowire being a different composition than the plurality of first nanowires. The second nanowire includes a first region and a second region, with the first region having a conductive layer disposed thereon, and each of the plurality of first nanowires being disposed on the conductive layer.
Abstract:
A multiple laser optical assembly comprises two laser subassemblies with two lasers bonded on two bases respectively, a polarization beam combiner (PBC), a lens, a mechanical housing and an optical fiber. The two subassemblies are configured to have orthogonal polarization directions from the two lasers and are assembled coaxially. The PBC combines the orthogonal polarized beams from the two lasers. The lens focuses the combined beam and couples into the optical fiber. With such a two laser optical assembly as a building block and a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) filter to combine the beams from two of such type of two laser optical assembly, one can further build a four laser optical assembly and extend to even more channel multiple laser optical assembly by adding more WDM filters and more similar two laser optical assemblies.
Abstract:
Flavonoid compounds that are selective for a protein, a portion or a living cell, or a portion of an organism may be used as biological imaging agents. The flavonoid compounds are useful for methods of imaging organisms such as zebrafish embryos and zebra fish. Flavonoid compounds may also be used to detect protein. Advantageously, flavonoids that selectively bind protein, a portion of a living cell, or a portion of an organism may exhibit a florescence “turn-on” mechanism, where the flavonoids that are selectively bound exhibit a florescence response when excited.
Abstract:
The devices and method are provided for detecting labeled and label-free analytes, such as nucleic acids and proteins, employing conjugated cationic, anionic and neutral polymers. The analytes can be immobilized on a solid support material. The solid support material can be disposed in the pre-fabricated patterns on a substrate. The chemical structures of the polymers employed by the various embodiments of the present invention are described herein.
Abstract:
A mercury-free lead-free button battery includes a negative cap, a cathode material, a gasket ring, a positive can, an anode material, and a diaphragm. The positive can and the negative cap are combined. The gasket ring is clamped between the positive can and the negative cap for separating the positive can from the negative cap. The cathode material is arranged on the bottom of the positive can. The diaphragm is arranged on the cathode material. The anode material is arranged between the negative cap and the diaphragm. A partition unit is arranged between the negative cap and the anode material for separating the anode material from the negative cap and conductively connecting the anode material and the negative cap. The partition unit ensures disconnection between the anode material and the negative cap and therefore safety of the battery by preventing expansion, weeping and even that would otherwise happen.
Abstract:
This invention relates to an aggregation sensor useful for the detection and analysis of aggregants in a sample, and methods, articles and compositions relating to such a sensor. The sensor comprises first and second optically active units, where energy may be transferred from an excited state of the first optically active unit to the second optically active unit. The second optically active unit is present in a lesser amount, but its relative concentration is increased upon aggregation, increasing its absorption of energy from the first optically active units. This increase in energy transfer can be detected in variety of formats to produce an aggregation sensing system for various aggregants, including for quantitation. Other variations of the inventions are described further herein.
