摘要:
A method and apparatus for identifying and distinguishing fluids and for recognizing contamination of a fluid, which method and apparatus utilizes spectrographic analysis of control samples of known fluids and then spectrographic analysis of unknown fluids to generate optical signatures, finger prints and/or profiles of data and processed data relating to the relative intensities of light at selected wavelengths; and then, through comparison of the various signatures, fingerprints and/or profiles, provides determinative information as to contamination or non-contamination of the unknown fluids; after which appropriate operation control is effected and/or exercised.

摘要:
An improved interconnection system and method is described, such as for connectors, socket assemblies and/or probe card systems. An exemplary system comprises a probe card interface assembly (PCIA) for establishing electrical connections to a semiconductor wafer mounted in a prober. The PCIA comprises a motherboard parallel to the semiconductor wafer having an upper surface and an opposing lower planar mounting surface, a reference plane defined by a least three points located between the lower surface of the motherboard and the wafer, at least one component located below the motherboard mounting surface, and a mechanism for adjusting the planarity of the reference plane with respect to the wafer. A probe chip having a plurality of spring probes extending there from is mountable and demountable from the PCIA, without the need for further planarity adjustment. The interconnection structures and methods preferably provide improved fabrication cycles.

An improved interconnection system is described, such as for electrical contactors and connectors, electronic device or module package assemblies, socket assemblies, and/or probe card assembly systems. An exemplary connector comprises a first connector structure comprising a contactor substrate having a contact surface and a bonding surface, and one or more electrically conductive micro-fabricated spring contacts extending from the probe surface, a second connector structure comprising at least one substrate and having a set of at least one electrically conductive contact pad located on a connector surface and corresponding to the set of spring contacts, and means for movably positioning and aligning the first connector structure and the second connector structure between at least a first position and a second position, such that in at least one position, at least one electrically conductive micro-fabricated spring contact is electrically connected to at least one electrically conductive contact pad.

摘要:
A microfluidic system for performing chemical reactions or biochemical, biological, or chemical assays utilizing a microfabricated device or “chip.” The system may include, among others, an integrated membrane fabricated from a chemically inert material whose permeability for gases, liquids, cells, and specific molecules, etc. can be selected for optimum results in a desired application.
摘要:
A method and device for forming large arrays of polymers on a substrate (401). According to a preferred aspect of the invention, the substrate is contacted by a channel block (407) having channels (409) therein. Selected reagents are delivered through the channels, the substrate is rotated by a rotating stage (403), and the process is repeated to form arrays of polymers on the substrate. The method may be combined with light-directed methodolgies.
