Abstract: With respect to a coherent optical receiving apparatus, a polarization multiplexing light signal, whereupon a first signal is placed upon a first polarized wave light and a second signal is placed upon a second polarized wave light, is polarization divided upon the transmitting side thereof, and the first signal and the second signal cannot be received in correspondence with the transmitting side. Accordingly, disclosed is a coherent optical receiving apparatus, comprising a coherent light receiving unit that detects coherent light, and a signal processing unit that carries out signal processing that is set with control coefficients. The coherent light receiving unit receives a first polarized light that is modulated with a first transmitted signal and outputs a first detected signal, and simultaneously receives the first polarized light with a second polarized light that is modulated with a second transmitted signal, and outputs a second detected signal. The signal processing unit establishes a first control coefficient on the basis of the first detected signal, and establishes a second control coefficient on the basis of the first control coefficient and the second detected signal, and employs the second control coefficient to output a first received signal corresponding to the first transmitted signal, and a second received signal corresponding to the second transmitted signal.

Abstract: There is described a decodable indicia reading terminal which in one embodiment can capture and process a certain (e.g., a first) and a subsequent (e.g., a second) frame of image data, wherein the certain and the subsequent frames have different imaging attributes. In one embodiment the attributes between certain and subsequent frames are differentiated in that the certain frame represents light incident on pixels of a first image sensor and the subsequent frame of image data represents light incident on pixels of a second image sensor spaced apart from the first image sensor. Additionally, or in the alternative, the attributes between certain and subsequent frames can be differentiated in that the first frame represents light incident on an image sensor under a first illumination profile and the subsequent frame represents light incident on pixels of an image sensor under a second illumination profile. In one embodiment imaging attributes of a frame subject to decoding are maintained constant for each frame subject to processing during a time that a trigger signal remains active. In one embodiment the certain and subsequent frames can be processed to yield partial decoding results and the partial decoding results can be combined to form a complete decoding result.

Abstract: Process for the synthesis of nanoparticles comprising oxidation sensitive metals, in particular copper comprising the following steps: 
- Preparation and nucleation of citrate-capped Metal-hydroxide nanoparticles, 
- reduction of the intermediate citrate-capped Metal-hydroxide nanoparticles to Metal 0  by reduction via NaBH 4   
 
Cu 0  nanoparticles with narrow size distribution are obtained by NaBH 4 -induced reduction of C u Cl 2 ·2H 2 O in diethylene glycol. The course of the reaction essentially involves an intermediate formation of Cu(OH) 2  nanoparticles as well as the presence of citrate to control the nucleation of almost monodisperse and non-agglomerated Cu 0  nanoparticles. The citrate-capped Cu 0  nanoparticles of the invention are surprisingly stable against air oxidation. Via simple solvent evaporation, porous Cu 0  thin-films are prepared on glass substrates that exhibit bulk-like sheet resistances of 0.23 - 0.42 Ω □  after vacuum sintering at 250 °C (bulk-Cu sheet under similar conditions with: 0.3 Ω □ ). With these features the as-prepared, citrate-capped Cu 0  nanoparticles become highly relevant to electronic devices in particular thin-film electronics, thin-film sensors and high-power batteries.

IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2011-07-25
Abstract: The inventors of the present invetion developed a two-step method for the post-synthetic enzymatic incorporation of chemical modifications or rather functionalization of RNA oligonucleotides for their labelling. In a first step, the RNA oligonucleotide is tailed by the incorporation of a convertible azido-modified (N 3 -modified) nucleotide at the 3'-terminus in an enzymatic reaction with a nucleotidyl transferase, e.g., the enzyme poly(A) polymerase (PAP) and an N 3 -modified nucleoside triphosphate (N 3 -modified NTP). In a second step, the functionalization is accomplished with an azide-reactive group, e.g., via a copper-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between the incorporated N 3 -modified nucleotide and a functional group containing a terminal alkyne moiety (copper-catalyzed click reaction), via a strain-promoted [3 + 2] dipolar cycloaddition between the incorporated N 3 -modified nucleotide and a functional group containing a cyclooctyne moiety (strain-promoted click reaction), or via an azide-phosphine conjugation between the incorporated N 3 -modified nucleotide and a functional group containing a phosphine moiety (Staudinger ligation). To achieve internal chemical modifications or rather functionalization of RNA oligonucleotides, an additional step can be introduced between the first and the second step, in which a second RNA oligonucleotide is enzymatically attached to the N 3 -modified nucleotide at the 3'-terminus of the first step, thus converting the 3'-terminal N 3 -modified nucleotide into an internal N 3 -modified nucleotide that can be further converted in one of the aforementioned reactions.
