Abstract: A sample substrate (51, Fig. 4A) for use in a fluorescence imaging system (Fig. I) includes a rigid base with a specularly reflective surface, typically metal, on which is deposited a transparent coating layer (53). The coating layer has a thickness selected so that a particular fluorescence excitation wavelength, corresponding to a specified fluorescent constituent to besought in sample material, has an optical path from the top of the coating layer to the reflecting surface in the base of substantially an odd multiple of one-quarter wavelength, so that the standing wave of the fluorescence excitation wavelength of light incident of the substrate has an antinode (61) located at or near where sample material would be disposed on top of the coating layer. This maximizes fluorescence excitation of the sample on the reflective substrate. The transparent coating layer may be a dielectric material (e.g. silica) or may be a multilayer structure with a top layer of biologically active material for binding a specified sample constituent.

Abstract: A PCMCIA smart card reader with no protruding portion, with a stable mechanical design, allowing space for additional functions to be included in the PCMCIA card and that eases the insertion of a smart card. A thin support is formed between a thin upper section and a lower section of the PCMCIA smart card reader at an opening forming a smart card slot. The support is outside the smart card slot, but positioned within the PCMCIA slot and is preferably an integrated part of a PCMCIA card top cover. Since the support guides the smart card laterally at the opening of the smart card slot, only a small portion of the smart card has to be inserted into the PCMCIA card. The limited insertion of the smart card and the location, of contacts for interfacing with the smart card in the thin upper section of the smart card reader, creates space for other functions to be included in the PCMCIA card, for example, a modem. The smart card insertion is eased by a removable extension supporting. the smart card vertically during the insertion of the smart card. The removable extension may be a cable connection plug.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of regulating cycles of a burner in a forced air system. A control unit uses a sensor at an output of a heat exchanger (22) to make measurements of a temperature of air output from the heat exchanger (22). The control unit observes temperature measurements, after the burner (24) has turned on. It initializes a confirmation interval when two consecutive temperature measurements are the same. The invention interrupts firing of the burner (24) for an interrupt interval. The interrupt interval is insufficient to allow the heat exchanger (22) to cool below a temperature useful for heating below which the circulation fan would shut off.
