    摘要: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for the mixing of two microfluidic channels wherein several wells are oriented diagonally across the width of a mixing channel. The device effectively mixes the confluent streams with electrokinetic flow, and to a lesser degree, with pressure driven flow. The device and method may be further adapted to split a pair of confluent streams into two or more streams of equal or non-equal concentrations of reactants. Further, under electrokinetic flow, the surfaces of said wells may be specially coated so that the differing electroosmotic mobility between the surfaces of the wells and the surfaces of the channel may increase the mixing efficiency. The device and method are applicable to the steady state mixing as well as the dynamic application of mixing a plug of reagent with a confluent stream.

    摘要: Novel systems and methods for remotely detecting at least one constituent of a gas via infrared detection are provided. A system includes at least one extended source of broadband infrared radiation and a spectrally sensitive receiver positioned remotely from the source. The source and the receiver are oriented such that a surface of the source is in the field of view of the receiver. The source includes a heating component thermally coupled to the surface, and the heating component is configured to heat the surface to a temperature above ambient temperature. The receiver is operable to collect spectral infrared absorption data representative of a gas present between the source and the receiver. The invention advantageously overcomes significant difficulties associated with active infrared detection techniques known in the art, and provides an infrared detection technique with a much greater sensitivity than passive infrared detection techniques known in the art.

    摘要: Process-dependent characteristics of a continuous time circuit, e.g., particular the sensitivity of the corner frequency of a continuous time filter to variations in absolute capacitance, is obviated by modifying a resistance-based transconductance tuning circuit, so that the tuning resistor is replaced with a switched capacitor circuit. The effect of this switched sampled data resistor replacement is such that, if each of the resistor-simulating switched capacitor of the transconductance stage and one or more load capacitors of the filter is established in the same processing sequence, what would otherwise be process-sensitive terms in the corner frequency-establishing ratio (g.sub.m /C) effectively cancel each other, so that the corner frequency fhi becomes proportional to a readily controlled frequency parameter for the sampled data resistor.
