Title: Nanoparticle transducer sensors and methods of use thereof
Inventor: CHIU DANIEL T
IPC: G01N21/64
Filed: 2022-07-07
Granted: 2023-07-13
Abstract: The present disclosure provides nanoparticle transducers and methods of use thereof 
for the detection of analyte concentrations in a fluid. Nanoparticle transducers can comprise a 
nanoparticle, such as a Pdot, coupled to an enzyme that catalyzes a reaction with the analyte.  
The nanoparticle transducers further comprise chromophores that emit fluorescence that 
varies as a function of the concentration of one of the elements of the reaction. The 
nanoparticle transducer thus changes fluorescence as the analyte concentration changes, 
transforming analyte concentration values into fluorescence intensities. The measurement of 
these intensities provides a measurement of the analyte concentration. The nanoparticle 
transducers are biocompatible, allowing for use in vivo, for the monitoring of analyte blood 
concentrations such as blood glucose concentrations.

Title: Gas-liquid separator assembly
Inventor: CLOUD ANDREW
IPC: B04C5/103
Filed: 2022-04-11
Granted: 2023-11-23
Abstract: A gas-liquid separator system that can effectively and efficiently separate liquid from a streaming mixture having a liquid portion and a gas potion. The gas-liquid separator may be used in supercritical fluid chromatography application where an analyte is separated from a carrier gas, such as carbon dioxide. A streaming mixture is dispensed into a separation chamber formed by a spindle shaft configured inside of a shroud cavity. The shroud cavity has a plurality of concave channels along the inner surface and extend down to an outlet end. The concave channels create pressure variations that promote the liquid portion to condense onto the inner surface of the shroud and flow down to the exhaust port. A spherical collection portion is configured on the outlet of the shroud and the condensed liquid flows thereover and down along a cone portion and off the cone tip.

Each purification system by the photocatalyst can be formed as a system in which the photocatalyst is irradiated with ultraviolet rays so as to decompose a gaseous harmful component. The semiconductor housing space can be formed as a stocker and/or a carrier box.

Granted: 2002-02-25
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make internal stress low and to form a highly precise pattern by using an X-ray absorber containing tungsten, nitrogen and oxygen and having an amorphous structure. SOLUTION: An X-ray absorbing film is formed on a silicon substrate by using a target of tungsten to which 1 wt.% of titanium is added, and by discharging at pressure of 10.3 mTorr and with DC discharge power of 0.5 kW. The film is annealed at 390 deg.C for 1 hour. In such an X-ray absorber, the internal stress can be reduced because of the contained tungsten, nitrogen and oxygen. Pattern size precision can be improved because the structure is not a columnar crystal structure, but is an amorphous structure. As a result, an X-ray absorber having low internal stress and suitable for forming a highly precise pattern can be obtained.
