摘要:
A horn connectable to an energy source to amplify ultrasound displacement is connected to a transmitter formed of material having relatively high mechanical Q for transmitting ultrasonic energy therethrough at a frequency f, the transmitter having a horn-shaped configuration of length that is a multiple of a half-wavelength .lambda./2, and preferably this horn-shaped configuration is comprised of multiple horn segments, each of a length substantially equal to a multiple of .lambda./2, where .lambda.=c/f (c is the speed of sound in the high Q material). The transmitter has a proximal end of cross-sectional diameter D.sub.1 connected to the horn and a distal end of cross-sectional diameter D.sub.2, where D.sub.1 >D.sub.2. Ultrasonic energy transmitted through the transmitter drives a tip which is coupled to the transmitter by means of a flexible connector.
摘要:
A power converter and a method for improving the output power of the power converter. The method includes independently selecting different gate resistor characteristics for the upper switching element and the lower switching element in the switching modules of the power converter to improve switching performance of both the upper and the lower switching element across a wide range of operating conditions, such as different voltages, currents, and/or operating temperatures.
摘要:
Methods for multiplex amplification of a plurality of targets of distinct sequence from a complex mixture are disclosed. In one aspect targets are circularized using a single circularization probe that is complementary to two regions in the target that flank a region to be amplified. The targets may hybridize to the circularization probe so that 5′ or 3′ flaps are generated and methods for removing flaps and circularizing the resulting product are disclosed. In another aspect targets are hybridized to dU probes so that 5′ and 3′ flaps are generated. The flaps are cleaved using 5′ or 3′ flap endonucleases or 3′ to 5′ exonucleases. The target sequences are then ligated to common primers, the dU probes digested and the ligated targets amplified.
