An optical switch formed on a substrate with receiving channels defined by alignment grooves formed in the substrate that are offset from alignment grooves that form the inputting channels. The offset receiving channels reduce the output power differentiation from an optical switch in which there is no offset.

Techniques for etching a wafer layer using multiple layers of the same photoresistant material and structures formed using such techniques are provided. In a method, first, multiple layers of the same photoresist material are formed over the wafer layer to form a composite photoresist layer. The composite photoresist layer is patterned and developed to form a patterned photoresist layer. Exposed portions of the wafer layer are then removed using the pattern photoresist layer. Each of the multiple layers of photoresist may, for example, be formed to a maximum rated thickness for the photoresist material. Structures formed using this process may have relatively small dimensions (e.g., widths of 5 microns or less or a spacing or pitch of 5 microns or less). In addition, structures may also have sidewalls which are relatively long, smooth, and/or vertical.

A MEMS-based optical switch having improved characteristics and methods for manufacturing the same are provided. In accordance with one embodiment, an optical switch includes a single comb drive actuator having a deflecting beam structure and a mirror coupled to the actuator. The mirror is capable of being moved between an extended position interposed between waveguide channels and a retracted position apart from the waveguide channels. The actuator applies a force capable of deflecting the beam structure and moving the mirror to one of the extended positions or the retracted position and the beam structure returns the mirror to the other of the extended position or the retracted position in the absence of the application of force.

A system and method are provided for determining the onset of gamma interactions for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging more accurately than with existing techniques. The timing of a sequence of primary trigger events is obtained and used to determine a weighted combination, which mixes the timing information from the various primary trigger events to compute an overall event trigger timing with improved time resolution. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the invention improves time resolution by approximately 10% over state-of-the-art methods. This improved time resolution directly benefits the imaging performance of the PET scanner, especially in time-of-flight (TOF) mode, where a high time resolution directly translates to a reduction in image noise at the same dose—or, alternatively, a reduction of dose to the patient or scan time for the same image quality.

Analytical cartridges, systems and methods of processing a sample for analysis using capillary flows. Vertical gradient sample filtration provides filtrate to an incubation chamber for a time controlled by a flow modulator at the outlet of the incubation chamber. The flow modulator can include a serpentine capillary flow path without side walls. Incubated filtrate can flow from the incubation chamber to a detection channel after a predetermined time. The detection chamber can include one or more analytical regions in a porous substrate for detection of two or more analytes on the same cartridge from the same sample.
