    摘要: A method and system for biometric identification utilizes structured light (e.g., fine grid) that is projected to the target objects (fingers and palm). The image with structured light on the object contours can give 3D information of the objects with resolution to satisfy NIST fingerprint standard. In embodiments, the structured light can be of different color, to reduce the burden of the software processing. To enhance the capture speed, a model with 2D image on “smooth” 3D surface can be used. In this “2.5-D” case, the finest feature of the structured light can be as big as millimeter size. Although grid-structured light can satisfy current requirement of fingerprint and palm print capture standards, in other embodiments, a customized structure based on the initial scan result can give optimal result on the 3D data. This may be useful when higher resolution is desired.

    摘要: A sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter-offers advantages such as noise shaping and high frequency operation. However, a sampling circuit needed to provide a highly oversampled discrete-time sample stream with low noise characteristics is difficult to design and implement. The present invention provides a sigma-delta mixer 300 with such a sampling circuit 310. The present invention discloses a sampling circuit using switched capacitors 307, 308, and 309 with low noise characteristics and at the same time is capable of providing a highly oversampled discrete-time sample stream.

    摘要: Digitizing a signal includes sampling and holding an analog signal to yield a sampled signal, where the analog signal includes information. The sampled signal is filtered at a passive filter circuit to yield a filtered signal. The passive filter circuit includes at least one passive element and the filtered signal is characterized by a bandpass response. The filtered signal is quantized to yield a digital signal, where the digital signal corresponds to the analog signal and the digital signal includes the information.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a semiconductor substrate (38) is uniformly polished using a polishing pad (16) that has a first polishing region (26), a second polishing region (28), and a third polishing region (30). The semiconductor substrate (38) is aligned to the polishing pad (16), such that the center of the semiconductor substrate (38) overlies the second polishing region (28), and the edge of the semiconductor substrate overlies the first polishing region (26) and the third polishing region (30). During polishing, the semiconductor substrate (38) is not radially oscillated over the surface of the polishing pad, and as a result a more uniform polishing rate is achieved across the semiconductor substrate (38). This allows the semiconductor substrate (38) to be uniformly polished from center to edge, and increases die yield because die located on the semiconductor substrate (38) are not over polished.

    摘要: Extracts of vetiver oil were found to significantly repel termites. In one extract, nootkatone was isolated and found to be a significant repellent and toxicant of termites. Nootkatone significantly decreased food consumption, decreased tunneling behavior, and increased mortality in termites. Nootkatone is an effective repellent and toxicant of termites either by itself or as an addition to other materials or substrates, including mulches made from vetiver grass roots or other wood products. Nootkatone can also be used to protect construction wood from attack by Formosan subterranean termites. Nootkatone as a repellent is non-toxic to humans and other mammals and is environmentally safe. In addition, α-cedrene was found to be a weak termite repellent; and both zizanol and bicyclovetivenol were found to be repellents and toxicants of termites.

    摘要: The present invention discloses a method and an in-vivo assay system useful for the identification and testing of modulating agents as well as for the validation of therapies of neurodegenerative diseases associated with the formation of neurofibrillary tangles, in particular Alzheimer's disease. The present invention is based on the surprising finding that injection of β-amyloid Aβ42 fibrils into brains of P301L mutant tau transgenic mice caused several-fold increases in the numbers and an accelerated production of neurofibrillary tangles in cell bodies predominantly within the amygdala. The induced neurofibrillary tangles occurred as early as 18 days after Aβ42 injections and displayed striking features of neurofibrillary tangles of several human neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease.

    摘要: Improved separations of xylose, mannose, galactose, arabinose, glucose, xylitol, arabitol; sorbitol, galactitol, or mannitol (and other monosaccharides and sugar alcohols) from other sugars and sugar alcohols may be achieved by chromatography over hydroxyl-form anion exchange surfaces prepared from anion exchange resins at relatively low hydroxyl concentrations. When a strong base anion exchange resin, such as a chloride-form strong base anion exchange resin, is conditioned with a low concentration of hydroxyl (for example, an NaOH solution with a concentration between 0.1 and 1000 mM, most preferably between 1 and 10 mM), the conditioned resin separates a number of sugars and sugar alcohols from one another, while still allowing ready desorption from the resin.
