Abstract: Exemplary pressurization and coating systems, methods, and apparatuses are described herein. In certain embodiments, pressurization systems, methods, and apparatuses are used in conjunction with coating systems, methods, and apparatuses to control pressure about a substrate after a coating material is applied to a surface of the substrate. An exemplary system includes a die tool configured to apply a coating material to a substrate passing through the die tool and a pressurization apparatus attached to the die tool and forming a pressurization chamber. The pressurization apparatus is configured to receive the substrate from the die tool and control pressure about the substrate in the pressurization chamber. In certain embodiments, the die tool forms a coating chamber and is configured to apply the coating material on at least one surface of the substrate in the coating chamber. In other embodiments, the pressurization chamber further includes one or more sprayers which are configured to apply a coolant to one or more outer surfaces of the coated substrate.

Abstract: Technologies are generally provided for enhancing optical coupling between nanostructures, such as a nanowire, and an optical element, such as an optical fiber, for example in order to enable effective optical communication. A nanostructure may be automatically aligned with an optical fiber by suspending the nanowire within a fluid and causing the nanowire to align itself with a tip of the optical fiber also suspended within the fluid. Light may be directed through the optical fiber to induce an optical gradient in the fluid near the optical fiber tip. The optical gradient may attract the nanowire to the tip of the optical fiber, and may cause to align with the optical fiber. Post-alignment, the nanowire may be permanently coupled with the optical fiber to form a nanowire-optical fiber assembly to couple light between the optical fiber and a nanophotonic circuit integrated with the nanowire.

Abstract: Substrates such as fabrics are treated in an apparatus that includes a chemical transfer apparatus and a transport means which conducts the substrate past the chemical transfer apparatus. The chemical transfer apparatus applies a solid chemical treatment mixture to the substrate continuously as the substrate is transported past the chemical transfer apparatus. The chemical treatment mixture includes a monomer that is cured by free radical polymerization. The applied chemical treatment mixture is then cured on the substrate by free radical polymerization. This invention provides a dry alternative to conventional wet coating methods, and avoids many of the problems associated with wet coating methods.

Abstract: An intraocular shunt can be manufactured using a system that includes a liquid bath and a wire, which is moved through the bath. When moved through the bath, the wire is coated with a material, such as gelatin. For example, the liquid bath can have a top layer, including water, and a bottom layer, including gelatin. The coated wire passes through an aperture formed in a plate component of the system. The gelatin can be dried on the wire in a humidity-controlled space, thereby forming the shunt.
