Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing high-quality samples for e.g. TEM inspection. When thinning samples with e.g. a Focused Ion Beam apparatus (FIB), the sample often oxidizes when taken from the FIB due to the exposure to air. This results in low-quality samples, that may be unfit for further analysis. By forming a passivation layer, preferably a hydrogen passivation layer, on the sample  in situ , that is: before taking the sample from the FIB, high quality samples are obtained.

Abstract: A microwave direction of travel detector and method of detecting the direction of an intruder in a protected region. The microwave direction of travel detector transmits and receives, by a microwave transceiver a microwave signal directed toward a protected area. The microwave return signal is modulated by a moving target to produce a Doppler signal. The received Doppler signal is amplified by a chain of amplifiers having two or more amplifiers coupled to the microwave transceiver. A controller monitors the output of each chain of the amplifiers. The microwave sensor is configured for parallel sampling an amplified Doppler signal output from each amplifiers having a low signal output and each successive chain of the amplifiers a successively higher signal output. The controller determines if there is a direction of travel motion from the intruder and sends an alarm.

Abstract: A cartridge (20) for an electrohydrodynamic spraying device (10) and a spraying device (10) incorporating the cartridge (20), where the cartridge (20) includes a locking mechanism (150). The cartridge (20) is disposable, and can contain therapeutic or other fluid products. The fluid is delivered from the cartridge (20) by a shaft-mounted piston (50), while the locking mechanism (150) can be selectively engaged with the shaft (40) such that in the engaged position, the locking mechanism prevents the piston from advancing by inhibiting movement of the shaft. When the locking mechanism (150) is disengaged from the shaft (40), the shaft (40) and piston (50) are free to move, such as in response to a power source (12) in the spraying device (10). The selective engagement between the locking mechanism (150) and the shaft (40) during periods of inoperability of the spray device (10) prevents the buildup of fluid pressure in the cartridge (20) that otherwise could blurt out upon subsequent operation.
