Abstract: This invention discloses a DBD plasma therapy device with replaceable dielectric barrier for treating different patients with different medical conditions. The plasma therapy device is equipped with a variety of dielectric barriers. The dielectric barriers may have different electrical characteristics (which are determined by their materials as well as physical dimensions and shapes) to adapt for the treatment of different types of biological tissues. The dielectric barrier of the plasma therapy device can be replaced to avoid contamination and cross-infection. As an additional feature, the plasma device further comprises an optical sensor, such as a spectroscopic sensor, for monitoring the emission spectrum of the plasma discharge. The emission spectrum can be utilized to analyze the composition of the reactive species generated by the plasma discharge and provide feedback control to the plasma therapy device.

Abstract: The present invention embodies a technique, referred to as Secure QR Codes, which not only provides aesthetically enhanced QR codes but also allows for security. It can embed a standard black and white QR code, referred to as a public QR code, and a secret QR code, both into a secure QR code. The secure QR code produced is composed of colored cells. The public black and white QR code must first be, either aesthetically enhanced into an enhanced colored QR code, or transformed into a colored QR code with cells of uniform color obtained by transforming each of the black and white cells of the public QR code into cells that takes a color from a subset of possible colors, such that the luminance of each colored cell approximates accurately the black or white luminance values of the public QR code.

Abstract: The present invention embodies a technique to embed a graphic representation and/or a concealed message such as but not limited to two dimensional codes such as quick response (QR) code matrices, fingerprints, coded fingerprint representations, iris imagery, iris coded representation, biometric hashes, palm print or portraits into a QR matrix code. In the case where biometric data such as finger print representation, iris coded representation or biometric hashes are encoded into the embedding, suitable binary representation of those patterns are generated before encoding. These concealed messages can be further encrypted using any cryptographic method such as public or private key or other suitable encrypting mechanisms adapted to the concealed message. For an implementation of the present invention in which a graphic representation is embedded into the code, the embedding process is based on an optimization method by which the color or luminance of the embedding is modified so as to minimize the visual distortion with respect to a reference image while maintaining the probability of decoding error of the standard and concealed code under a predetermined limit.

Abstract: This invention discloses a laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) apparatus with automatic wavelength calibration. The LIBS apparatus comprises a database of pre-obtained LIBS spectra of standard calibration samples. When the LIBS spectrum of a target sample is acquired, a processor unit calculates a cross correlation between the LIBS spectrum of the calibration sample and the spectrum of the target sample in reference to a possible wavelength shift between the two spectra. The exact wavelength shift between the two spectra is found where the cross correlation reaches a maximum value. The wavelength shift of the target spectrum is then corrected through an interpolation procedure and the wavelength shift corrected spectrum is analyzed to obtain the composition information of the target sample.

Abstract: This invention discloses a laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) apparatus based on a high repetition rate pulsed laser. The laser produces a train of laser pulses at a high repetition rate in the kHz or even higher range. When the laser beam hits the sample, it generates several thousands of micro-plasma emissions per second. Synchronized miniature CCD array optical spectrometer modules collect the LIBS signal from these micro-plasma emissions. By adjusting the integration time of the spectrometer to cover a plurality of periods of the laser pulse train, the spectrometer integrates the LIBS signal produced by this plurality of laser pulses. Hence the intensity of the obtained LIBS spectrum can be greatly improved to increase the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and lower the limit of detection (LOD). In addition, the influence of pulse to pulse variation of the laser is minimized since the obtained LIBS spectrum is the spectrum of a plurality of micro-plasma emissions produced by a plurality of laser pulses. The high repetition rate laser also makes it possible to measure the LIBS signal at a short and a long integration time and mathematically combining the two spectra to obtain a LIBS spectrum with enhanced dynamic range.

Abstract: This invention discloses a substrate enhanced laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) apparatus for liquid analysis. The LIBS apparatus comprises a pulsed laser for producing a laser beam, a substrate made of a material having a high absorption coefficient at the laser wavelength for receiving the liquid sample, an optical lens or mirror for focusing the laser beam onto the liquid sample to produce a plasma emission, and a spectrometer for measuring the optical spectrum of the plasma emission. When the thickness of the liquid sample reaches an optimum value, the plasma emission from the liquid sample is enhanced by the substrate to produce a strong LIBS signal for spectral analysis.
