A method and apparatus hermetically sealing a fiber array block is described. In one embodiment, a fiber array plate is fabricated and an array of tapered holes formed therein. An adhering metal layer, such as a titanium, nickel and gold multilayer, is deposited upon the fiber array plate. A solder preform is positioned on the fiber array plate so that the array of holes in the solder preform corresponds to the array of holes in the array plate. Fibers having an adhering metal layer deposited thereon, are then inserted through the fiber array plate. The tapered holes make the fiber insertion process easier. The fiber array plate is then heated such that the solder preform melts causing the solder to fill any gaps between the fiber array plates and the fiber. When the solder cools a hermetic seal is formed while the fibers remain accurately positioned.

Flavonoid compounds may be prepared that are selective for certain cell organelles, and may be used as biological imaging agents. Organelles that may be imaged with flavonoid compounds include mitochondria and lysosomes. Advantageously, the flavonoids show specificity to certain organelles and may exhibit a florescence “turn-on” mechanism, where the flavonoids that have target an organelle exhibit a florescence response when excited.

Semiconductor devices are provided including an active layer, a gate structure, a spacer, and a source/drain layer. The active layer is on the substrate and includes germanium. The active layer includes a first region having a first germanium concentration, and a second region on both sides of the first region. The second region has a top surface getting higher from a first portion of the second region adjacent to the first region toward a second portion of the second region far from the first region, and has a second germanium concentration less than the first germanium concentration. The gate structure is formed on the first region of the active layer. The spacer is formed on the second region of the active layer, and contacts a sidewall of the gate structure. The source/drain layer is adjacent to the second region of the active layer.

A vehicle shading apparatus may include a first front shading control unit, a first rear shading control unit, a second top shading control unit, and a second rear shading control unit. In one embodiment, one end of the first top shading control unit is connected to the second top shading control unit. One end of the first rear shading control unit and a horizontal supporting unit are connected to the second rear shading control unit. The second top shading control unit and second rear shading control unit both include a shading cloth extending along the body of the vehicle. The present invention is advantageous because it has an automatic shading cloth expand/restore control unit and high-strength supporting unit. It is portable, easy to install and has the shading all around the vehicle to effectively block the sunlight.

Methods, compositions and articles of manufacture involving soluble conjugated polymers are provided. The conjugated polymers have a sufficient density of polar substituents to render them soluble in a polar medium, for example water and/or methanol. The conjugated polymer may desirably comprise monomers which alter its conductivity properties. In some embodiments, the inventors have provided cationic conjugated polymers (CCPs) comprising both solubilizing groups and conductive groups, resulting in conductive conjugated polymers soluble in polar media. The different solubility properties of these polymers allow their deposition in solution in multilayer formats with other conjugated polymers. Also provided are articles of manufacture comprising multiple layers of conjugated polymers having differing solubility characteristics. Embodiments of the invention are described further herein.
摘要:
Methods, compositions and articles of manufacture for assaying a sample for a target polynucleotide are provided. A sample suspected of containing the target polynucleotide is contacted with a polycationic multichromophore and a sensor PBP that can bind to the target polynucleotide. The sensor PBP comprises a signaling chromophore to absorb energy from the excited multichromophore and emit light in the presence of the target polynucleotide. The methods can be used in multiplex form. Kits comprising reagents for performing such methods are also provided.
摘要:
An exemplary electronic device is connected with an earphone. The earphone includes a first storage unit storing information as to functions of the earphone. The electronic device includes a second storage unit storing a function information table recording information as to user-controllable functions of the electronic device, function units corresponding to the user-controllable functions, an identifying module, and a control module. The identifying module retrieves the information as to functions stored in the first storage unit, and determines whether one or more of the controllable functions of the electronic device are controllable by the earphone. The control module activates all of the function units corresponding to the controllable functions of the electronic device which are controllable by the earphone, and controls one or more of the activated function units according to one or more control signals transmitted from the earphone to the electronic device. A related method is also provided.

The present invention provides various uses of VEGF binding peptides, including methods to treat disorders associated with abnormal angiogenesis. In addition, the invention provides VEGF peptides conjugated to antibodies alone and in conjunction with other anti-angiogenic molecules.
摘要:
This invention provides a method that allows selection of antibodies against cells (e.g., tumor cells) in situ using laser capture microdissection. By restricting antibody selection to binders of internalizing epitopes, a panel of phage antibodies was generated that targets clinically represented prostate cancer antigens.
