摘要： Methods and apparatus relating to very large scale FET arrays for analyte measurements. ChemFET (e.g., ISFET) arrays may be fabricated using conventional CMOS processing techniques based on improved FET pixel and array designs that increase measurement sensitivity and accuracy, and at the same time facilitate significantly small pixel sizes and dense arrays. Improved array control techniques provide for rapid data acquisition from large and dense arrays. Such arrays may be employed to detect a presence and/or concentration changes of various analyte types in a wide variety of chemical and/or biological processes. In one example, chemFET arrays facilitate DNA sequencing techniques based on monitoring changes in hydrogen ion concentration (pH), changes in other analyte concentration, and/or binding events associated with chemical processes relating to DNA synthesis.

摘要： The invention is directed to apparatus and chips comprising a large scale chemical field effect transistor arrays that include an array of sample-retaining regions capable of retaining a chemical or biological sample from a sample fluid for analysis. In one aspect such transistor arrays have a pitch of 10 μm or less and each sample-retaining region is positioned on at least one chemical field effect transistor which is configured to generate at least one output signal related to a characteristic of a chemical or biological sample in such sample-retaining region. In one embodiment, the characteristic of said chemical or biological sample is a concentration of a charged species and wherein each of said chemical field effect transistors is an ion-sensitive field effect transistor having a floating gate with a dielectric layer on a surface thereof, the dielectric layer contacting said sample fluid and being capable of accumulating charge in proportion to a concentration of the charged species in said sample fluid. In one embodiment such charged species is a hydrogen ion such that the sensors measure changes in pH of the sample fluid in or adjacent to the sample-retaining region thereof.

摘要： The herein disclosed processes provide a methodology for forming pre-cut gun wraps that may be formed specifically for a particular make and model of firearm or firearm accessory, and may be packaged and shipped to customer in a pre-cut form that allows for easy and adjustable non-permanent application to a firearm or firearm accessory. An exemplary embodiment of the herein disclosed processes includes the steps of: drawings a digital outline of a specific make and model of firearm; measuring a gun wrap surface area; translating the gun wrap surface area into a vector template; combining the vector template with digital artwork to determine a cut path; printing on an adhesive with the digital artwork; laminating the adhesive; cutting the pre-cut model specific gun wrap from the adhesive on a plotter/cutting machine using the cut path; and removing excess material from the pre-cut model specific gun wrap. The adhesive may be a pressure sensitive adhesive vinyl material.
