摘要:
A touch sensor method and device are described that allow one or more simultaneous touches to be sensed and mapped to Cartesian coordinates. The device utilizes closely spaced multiple conducting strips to provide digital location of a touch position according to the position strip and analog location along the length of the strip. When the strips are energized individually and in coordinated ways, multiple touches are individually sensed and their positions are reported.
摘要:
Fluorescence modification, meaning either fluorescence enhancement or fluorescence diminishment, is obtained in a transparent layer structure comprised of a substrate, a dielectric layer and a fluorophore-labeled biomolecule layer. A metal particle layer is positioned in the layer structure a distance of 200-500 nm from the fluorophore-labeled biomolecule layer. Separation distances between 200 and 500 nanometers can be used to enhance or diminish fluorescence. All of the layers may be made transparent so that microscopic viewing of the fluorescence is possible from either side of the layer structure.
摘要:
A surface wave chemical detector comprising at least one surface wave substrate, each of said substrates having a surface wave and at least one measurable surface wave parameter; means for exposing said surface wave substrate to an unknown sample of at least one chemical to be analyzed, said substrate adsorbing said at least one chemical to be sensed if present in said sample; a source of radiation for radiating said surface wave substrate with different wavelengths of said radiation, said surface wave parameter being changed by said adsorbing; and means for recording signals representative of said surface wave parameter of each of said surface wave substrates responsive to said radiation of said different wavelengths, measurable changes of said parameter due to adsorbing said chemical defining a unique signature of a detected chemical.
