摘要:
A device and method for manipulating a direction of motion of current carriers are presented. The device comprises a structure containing a two-dimensional gas of current carriers configured to define at least one region of inhomogeneity which is characterized by a substantially varying value of at least one parameter from the following: a spin-orbit coupling constant, density of the spin carriers, and a mobility of the gas. The device may be configured and operable to perform spin manipulation of a flux of the spin carrying current carriers to provide at least one of the following types of deviation of said spin-carrying current carriers: spin dependent refraction, spin dependent reflection and spin dependent diffraction on desired deviation angles of a direction of motion of the spin-carrying current carriers being incident on said at least one region of inhomogeneity. The device may also be configured and operable to allow emission of the current carriers from a diffusive region at one side of the region of inhomogeneity to a ballistic region at the opposite side of the region of inhomogeneity to provide the current carriers propagation in multiple directions in the ballistic region with a wide angular range of these directions.

The invention discloses a knockout mouse that is homozygous for a RUNX3 null allele, as a novel model for chronic inflammatory disease. The present invention provides methods of diagnosing and assessing predisposition to chronic inflammatory diseases. The present invention further provides methods for testing agents for effectiveness in treating and/or preventing diseases associated with chronic inflammatory or autoimmune conditions.
摘要:
A method for processing images includes identifying empiric model elements (EMEs) in an original high resolution photo-realistic image, where each EME includes a straight central segment, a color profile, and a control area; and geometrically modeling the EMEs in vectorized forms to achieve a generally full visual quality for a representation of said image.
