    摘要: An aerosol sample collector with an air flow path comprising: (i) at a first segment thereof, a particle charging device, and (i) at a second segment thereof, deflection plates configured to focus particles of a desired charge into a preselected cross-section of the air flow path. The air flow path also includes charged substrates arranged at an outflow portion of the air flow path to collect charged particles on a collection surface of the charged substrates; and an exit path for flowing particles not in the preselected cross-section of the air flow path away from the charged substrates. Related methods are also provided.

    摘要: An imaging device consistent with one of numerous embodiments has an opaque planar sheet with a plurality of pinholes defining a photon sieve in the sheet, wherein, the photon sieve comprises at least first and second regions. The first region exhibits a first focal length, a first field of view, a first transmissivity, a first resolution and a first wavelength, and the second region exhibiting a second focal length, a second field of view, a second transmissivity, a second resolution and a second wavelength. At least one of the first focal length, the first wavelength, the first transmissivity, the first resolution and the first field of view is different from the second focal length, the second wavelength, the second transmissivity, the second resolution and the second field of view. This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract.

    摘要: An apparatus for inducing movement of an electrolytic droplet includes: a housing having an internal volume filled with a liquid immiscible with an electrolytic droplet; a distribution plate positioned within the chamber having an aperture and dividing the housing into upper and lower chambers; a lower electrode positioned below the lower chamber and the aperture in the distribution plate and being separated from the lower chamber by an overlying hydrophobic insulative layer; an upper electrode located above the upper chamber and the aperture of the distribution plate and being separated from the upper chamber by an underlying hydrophobic insulative layer; and first, second and third voltage generators that are electrically connected to, respectively, the lower and upper electrodes and the distribution plate. The voltage generators are configured to apply electrical potentials to the lower and upper electrodes and the distribution plate, thereby inducing movement of the electrolytic droplet between the hydrophobic layers.
