    Abstract: A frame shuttered CMOS image sensor with simultaneous array readout. An array of CMOS pixels are printed on a silicon substrate. Within each pixel is a light sensitive region comprising a photo sensitive diode for converting photons into electrical charge and at least three transistors to permit reading of reset electrical charges and collected electrical charges and for re-setting the photosensitive diode. The sensor includes an array of signal and re-set readout capacitors located on the substrate but outside of the pixel array. Metal conductors printed in said substrate connect each pixel in said pixel array with a signal capacitor and a re-set capacitor in array of signal and re-set readout capacitors. Transistor switches printed in said substrate but outside of said pixel array are used to isolate the signal and re-set capacitors from each other and from the pixels. Control circuitry is provided for re-setting simultaneously each of the pixels in the pixel array, for collecting simultaneously re-set signals from each pixel on to one of the reset capacitors in the array of readout capacitors and for collecting simultaneously integrated pixel signals from each pixel on to one of the signal capacitors in the array of readout capacitors. Readout circuitry is provided for reading charges collected on the array of signal and re-set capacitors.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a double helix coupled vane forward wave crossed-field amplifier utilizing backwall cooling and vane channel cooling in the RF slow wave circuit. Backwall channel cooling is provided for the majority of the anode vanes. Additional cooling is provided exclusively for the output vanes via individual coolant carrying passages in each output vane. The coolant carrying passages are machined into each standard double helix coupled output vane to create a vane channel in the shape of a "U". A tube formed in a corresponding U-shape is inserted and brazed to the machined vane. The vane assembly is then attached to the anode body of which the backwall has holes formed to accept the tubes from each vane. Divided backwall coolant channels are brazed to the outside of the anode, thereby placing in fluid communication the coolant channels to the tubes. Accordingly, coolant is cycled from a first backwall channel, through the output vanes and through the majority of the circumference of the anode via a second backwall channel, and back into the first backwall channel through a conduit and the vanes of the anode are thus preferentially cooled.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for identification of activating ions by collisions is described. The method uses a plurality of linear ion taps and a plurality of sources of ions and a mass measuring device. A first source is operated to dispense first ions into first trap, where the ions may be kinetically cooled. A second source is operated to dispense second ions into the first trap, where the first and the second ions are stored. Ions in the first trap are ejected so as to enter a second trap, where the ions are stored prior to mass spectrometry. The apparatus may use quadrupole rods to form the ion traps, and the voltage and pressure differences between the first and second traps are controllable values.

    Abstract: A lateral field emission device and method of fabricating the device which maximizes gate control of the cathode emitter electric field strength is disclosed. Gate control increases when the position of the gate edge is optimized with respect to the position of the emitter tip. Maximum control is achieved if the gate extends a distance beyond the emitter in the direction of the anode. Preferably, the displacement of the gate edge from the emitter tip is one half the cathode tip-anode distance for optimum control. The high gain device of the present invention provides improved transconductance.
