摘要： An apparatus includes a plurality of islands each carrying multiple cantilevers. The apparatus also includes a fluidic network having a plurality of channels separating the islands. The channels are configured to provide fluid to the islands, and the fluid at least partially fills spaces between the cantilevers and the islands. Heat from the islands vaporizes the fluid filling the spaces between the cantilevers and the islands to transfer the heat away from the islands while driving the cantilevers into oscillation. The apparatus may also include a casing configured to surround the islands and the fluidic network to create a vapor chamber, where the vapor chamber is configured to retain the vaporized fluid. The islands and the fluidic network could be formed in a single substrate, or the islands could be separate and attached together by a binder located within the channels of the fluidic network.

摘要： The present invention is an improvement to the method of growing silicon films on a substrate by bringing the substrate in contact with molten silicon. The improved growth technique may be classified as an asymmetric mode of growth of silicon on the substrate and is characterized by the substrate being maintained at a higher temperature than the solidification of silicon in the area of the substrate where the silicon layer growth is taking place, that is in the area of the liquid-solid interface. The higher temperature of the substrate causes the liquid-solid interface to be tilted to be nearly parallel to the substrate surface but inclined at a reentrant angle, so that the leading edge of the crystallization front is away from the substrate. This provides several advantages including increased growth speed, a nonhomogeneous doping of the silicon layer, that is an impurity concentration gradient and results in a high-low junction at the back surface and gives the back surface field effect.

摘要： A method includes acquiring a chemical sample and modulating the chemical sample at a frequency greater than a drift frequency of a sensor. The method also includes determining at least one of a presence and a concentration of the analyte within the modulated chemical sample using the sensor. Modulating the chemical sample could include alternately absorbing at least some of the analyte into a sorbent material and releasing at least some of the analyte from the sorbent material. Modulating the chemical sample could also include heating the sorbent material, absorbing part of the analyte into the sorbent material, and passing a remaining portion of the analyte into the sensor. Modulating the chemical sample could further include stopping the heating of the sorbent material, releasing the part of the analyte from the sorbent material, and passing the sample with the released part of the analyte into the sensor.

摘要： A sensor device for detecting vibration, including a laser light, a first optical fiber for transmitting the laser light, an oscillator to receive the transmitted laser light and reflect the light as a frequency modulated light; a second optical fiber to transmit the frequency modulated light; and a frequency modulated discriminator for receiving the frequency modulated light from the second optical fiber and producing a signal responsive of vibration of the oscillator. In a preferred embodiment, the frequency modulated discriminator further includes a frequency meter for determining the average number of cycles per unit time to provide a second signal responsive of the temperature of the oscillator. The optical fibers may be a pair of different fibers positioned for transmitting the laser light and the frequency modulated light respectively, or the same fiber positioned for transmitting both the laser light and the frequency modulated light.
