    摘要: A reconfigurable data acquisition card including at least one field programmable gate array (FPGA) and a configurable bus switch coupled with the FPGA. The bus switch forms at least first and second ports used by the FPGA, the bus switch being adaptable for insertion into a connection having a number of lanes at least equal to a combined number of lanes in the first and second ports. The data acquisition card further includes multiple optical transmitters and optical receivers. Each optical transmitter and optical receiver is coupled with a corresponding transceiver in the FPGA via at least one optical fiber having multiple communication links. Timing circuitry in the data acquisition card is coupled with clock generation and distribution circuitry in the FPGA and is configured to distribute clock and timing signals to detector front-ends with fixed latency and to synchronize input/output links with a system clock generated by the FPGA.

    摘要: Methods for etching nanostructures in a substrate include depositing a patterned block copolymer on the substrate, the patterned block copolymer including first and second polymer block domains, applying a precursor to the patterned block copolymer to generate an infiltrated block copolymer, the precursor infiltrating into the first polymer block domain and generating a material in the first polymer block domain, applying a removal agent to the infiltrated block copolymer to generate a patterned material, the removal agent removing the first and second polymer block domains from the substrate, and etching the substrate, the patterned material on the substrate masking the substrate to pattern the etching. The etching may be performed under conditions to produce nanostructures in the substrate.
