摘要:
Communication of information between the inside and the outside of an electrically conducting enclosure is performed through the use of a frequency selective surface on the electrically conducting enclosure, which permits passage of electromagnetic waves at particular frequencies, but prohibits waves of other frequencies from penetration. Thus, one or more objects contained within the electrically conducting enclosure, which include radio frequency tags attached to the objects containing information about the objects, may be monitored or interrogated by the transmission of an electromagnetic wave at the permitted frequency through the frequency selective surface. With such a system, control and inventory of enclosed objects may be performed while the EMI shielding function of the electrically conducting enclosure is maintained.

An apparatus and method for forming a patterned graphene layer on a substrate. One such method includes forming at least one patterned structure of a carbide-forming metal or metal-containing alloy on a substrate, applying a layer of graphene on top of the at least one patterned structure of a carbide-forming metal or metal-containing alloy on the substrate, heating the layer of graphene on top of the at least one patterned structure of a carbide-forming metal or metal-containing alloy in an environment to remove graphene regions proximate to the at least one patterned structure of a carbide-forming metal or metal-containing alloy, and removing the at least one patterned structure of a carbide-forming metal or metal-containing alloy to produce a patterned graphene layer on the substrate, wherein the patterned graphene layer on the substrate provides carrier mobility for electronic devices.

A nanodevice includes a reservoir filled with conductive fluid and a membrane separating the reservoir. A nanopore is formed through the membrane having electrode layers separated by insulating layers. A certain electrode layer has a first type of organic coating and a pair of electrode layers has a second type. The first type of organic coating forms a motion control transient bond to a molecule in the nanopore for motion control, and the second type forms first and second transient bonds to different bonding sites of a base of the molecule. When a voltage is applied to the pair of electrode layers a tunneling current is generated by the base in the nanopore, and the tunneling current travels via the first and second transient bonds formed to be measured as a current signature for distinguishing the base. The motion control transient bond is stronger than first and second transient bonds.
摘要:
A process comprises combining a Ce (IV) salt with a carbon material comprising CNT or graphene wherein the Ce (IV) salt is selected from a Ce (IV) ammonium salt of a nitrogen oxide acid and is dissolved in a solvent comprising water. The process is conducted under conditions to substantially oxidize the carbon material to produce an oxidized material that is substantially non-conducting. After the oxidation, the Ce (IV) is substantially removed from the oxidized material. This produces a product made by the process. An article of manufacture comprises the product on a substrate. The oxidized material can be formed as a pattern on the substrate. In another embodiment the substrate comprises an electronic device with the oxidized material patterning non-conductive areas separate from conductive areas of the non-oxidized carbon material, where the conductive areas are operatively associated with the device.

摘要:
A technique for nanodevice is provided. A reservoir is filled with an ionic fluid. A membrane separates the reservoir, and the membrane includes electrode layers separated by insulating layers in which the electrode layers have an organic coating. A nanopore is formed through the membrane, and the organic coating on the electrode layers forms transient bonds to a base of a molecule in the nanopore. When a first voltage is applied to the electrode layers a tunneling current is generated by the base in the nanopore, and the tunneling current travels through the transient bonds formed to the base to be measured as a current signature for distinguishing the base.
