Electroosmotic (EO) pumps (also known as electrokinetic pumps) generate fluid flow and pressure in a compact system with no moving parts. They can be combined with microchannel heat exchangers to provide cooling for microelectronics. Researchers in Dr.
A method for determining a composition of an object using a spectral x-ray system is provided. X-ray photons of at least two different energies are transmitted through the object. The energy of each detected x-ray photon using a detector in the x-ray system is estimated.
A method for providing an adiabatic RF pulse that is an inversion or refocusing pulse for a RF pulse sequence is provided. A linear phase frequency profile (F.sub.lp(.omega.)) is determined for the adiabatic RF pulse.
Unlike traditional anti-malware products that enforce one narrow definition of security, this flexible, policy-based Android application management platform enables customized enterprise-specific security, privacy, and compliance policy enforcement.
Prof. Jim Collman at Stanford and Dr. Paul Herrmann at Loma Linda Medical School have developed compositions and methods to inhibit platelet and platelet-driven clotting activity by a novel pathway.
A composition of matter comprising an amphiphilic star polymer, the star polymer comprising a crosslinked microgel core and 6 or more independent polymer arms covalently linked to the core, the 6 or more arms each comprising a hydrophilic polymer chain segment and a hydrophobi
Researchers in Prof. Mark Kay's laboratory have developed a robust vector that combines the ease of plasmid preparation with the stable expression achieved by minicircle vectors.
A doped superfluorescent fiber source (SFS) has an enhanced mean wavelength stability. A method stabilizes the mean wavelength of a SFS. The method includes providing an SFS including a doped fiber.
A photonic-bandgap fiber includes a photonic crystal lattice with a material having a first refractive index and a pattern of regions formed therein. Each of the regions has a second refractive index lower than the first refractive index.
A method estimates a nonlinearity profile of a material. The method includes providing a magnitude of a transform of a measured nonlinearity profile measured from the material.
An optical fiber includes a cladding with a material having a first refractive index and a pattern of regions formed therein. Each of the regions has a second refractive index lower than the first refractive index.
