Abstract:
In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a particle dispensing system is described. The particle dispensing system includes a port to receive a number of fluid cartridges. Each fluid cartridge is to hold an amount of fluid to be ejected. The particle dispensing system also includes an optical verification system to determine, following ejection, a count of a number of particles ejected during an ejection event. The particle dispensing system also includes a controller to selectively activate a number of fluid ejectors to eject the amount of fluid.

Abstract:
The present disclosure is drawn to a thermal inkjet printhead stack with an amorphous thin metal protective layer, comprising an insulated substrate, a resistor applied to the insulated substrate, a resistor passivation layer applied to the resistor, and an amorphous thin metal protective layer applied to the resistor passivation layer. The amorphous thin metal protective layer can comprise from 5 atomic % to 90 atomic % of a metalloid of carbon, silicon, or boron. The film can also include a first and second metal, each comprising from 5 atomic % to 90 atomic % of titanium, vanadium, chromium, cobalt, nickel, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, rhodium, palladium, hafnium, tantalum, tungsten, iridium, or platinum. The second metal is different than the first metal, and the metalloid, the first metal, and the second metal account for at least 70 atomic % of the amorphous thin metal protective layer.
Abstract:
In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a particle detection system is described. The particle detection system includes a microfluidic channel through which fluid is to flow. The fluid includes particles. The particle detection system also includes a sensing circuit to output a resonant frequency. The sensing circuit includes a pair of electrodes disposed within the microfluidic channel. Contents of a volume between the pair of electrodes changes a capacitance between the pair of electrodes. A change in the capacitance changes the resonant frequency output by the sensing circuit. The particle detection system also includes a controller to determine the contents of the volume based on the resonant frequency.
