摘要:
A fractionating apparatus is used for fractionating sample into micro-structures different in size, and includes a fractionating unit formed with a fractionating passage; the fractionating passage is defined in a groove formed in a substrate of the fractionating unit, and pillar patches are formed in the groove at intervals wider than the gap among the pillar patches; while the sample is migrated through the fractionating passage, small-sized DNA molecules are trapped in the pillar patches, and large-sized DNA molecules are smoothly migrated through the wide intervals; this results in that the large-sized DNA molecules reaches the end of the fractionating passage faster than the small-sized DNA molecules without clogging.
摘要:
After a sample is previously separated into plural components in a channel formed in a microchip (353), the channel is irradiated along a separation direction with a laser beam from a laser oscillator (361) to sequentially ionize each fraction separated in the channel. The ionized fraction is detected by a mass spectrometry unit (363) and analyzed by an analytical result analyzing unit (371). The analytical result is stored in a memory (369) while associated with position information in a driver control unit (367) and information on laser beam irradiation condition in a laser control unit (373), and the analytical result is imaged by an imaging unit (375). The imaged analytical result is displayed on a display (377).

摘要:
A separation apparatus (100) has a separation channel (112), a partition wall (301a) and a partition wall (301b), wherein each of the partition wall (301a) and the partition wall (301b) has a capture portion (300) formed thereon. Molecules having a size acceptable by the capture portions (300) provided on the partition wall (301a) and the partition wall (301b) are captured by the capture portion (300) and reduced in the travel speed through the separation channel (112), and this makes it possible to precisely separate the sample depending on the molecular size.

摘要:
A switching element has an ion conductor capable of conducting metal ions for use in an electrochemical reaction therein, a first electrode and a second electrode which are disposed in contact with said ion conductor and spaced a predetermined distance from each other, and a third electrode disposed in contact with the ion conductor. When a voltage for causing the switching element to transit to an on state is applied to the third electrode, metal is precipitated between the first electrode and the second electrode by metal ions, electrically interconnecting the first electrode and the second electrode. When a voltage for causing the switching element to transit to an off state is applied to the third electrode, the precipitated metal is dissolved to electrically disconnect the first electrode and the second electrode from each other.

The switching device can be provided in which the on state, or the off state can be arbitrarily set by the threshold voltage applied between the ion supplying layer (17) and the counter electrode layer (15), which is non-volatile, and the resistance of which in the on state is low. The switching device of the present invention is also simple and fine in structure, and hence makes it possible to provide smaller switching devices than are currently available. Further, using the switching device of the present invention as the switching device of an FPGA (30) makes it possible to provide re-programmable and fast operation FPGA (30). Using the switching device of the present invention as a memory cell of a memory device makes it possible to provide a non-volatile memory device with high programming and reading speed.
