    摘要: In an embodiment, a fluid ejection device includes a die substrate having first and second fluid slots along opposite substrate sides and separated by a substrate central region. First and second internal columns of closed chambers are associated with the first and second slots, respectively, and the internal columns are separated by the central region. Fluidic channels extending across the central region fluidically couple closed chambers from the first internal column with closed chambers from the second internal column. Pump actuators in each closed chamber pump fluid through the channels from slot to slot.

    摘要: A method of detecting a defective nozzle within a nozzle array, may comprise grouping each nozzle with a number of other nozzles within the nozzle array, measuring fluid output from each group of nozzles with a fluid detector, individually regrouping each nozzle within a group of nozzles whose fluid output is detected as not being commensurate with the amount of fluid that should be ejected from that group with a number of known non-defective nozzles to form a number of subsequent groups, and measuring fluid output from the subsequent groups of nozzles to determine which nozzle among the subsequent groups of nozzles is defective.

    摘要: An example device includes an array of sensor modules. A sensor module includes a body to be positioned in alignment with a planar target, a light source coupled to the body to emit light to the planar target along a source optical path, and a plurality of light sensors coupled to the body. Each light sensor is to sense a different wavelength of light received from the planar target along a sensor optical path. The sensor optical path is different from the source optical path. The bodies of the array of sensor modules are arranged in a planar tiling pattern with respect to a longitudinal axis of the planar target.

    摘要: A method of alignment and fusion of cells with an electrical field includes firing a first fluid dispenser of an electrofusion device until a first impedance sensor in a first microfluidic channel of the electrofusion device detects a presence of a first cell. The method includes firing a second fluid dispenser of the electrofusion device until a second impedance sensor in a second microfluidic channel of the electrofusion device detects a presence of a second cell. The method includes moving the first cell and the second cell into a merging chamber of the electrofusion device by firing a third fluid dispenser of the electrofusion device, in response to alignment of the first cell in the first microfluidic channel with the second cell in the second microfluidic channel. The method further includes fusing the first cell and the second cell in the merging chamber by creating an electrical field in the merging chamber.
