Us Patents

  • Anchored Strand Displacement Amplification On An Electronically Addressable Microchip

    view source
  • US Patent:
    6531302, Mar 11, 2003
  • Filed:
    Apr 12, 1999
  • Appl. No.:
    09/290000
  • Inventors:
    Michael I. Nerenberg - La Jolla CA
    Carl F. Edman - San Diego CA
    Lorelei P. Westin - La Mesa CA
    Lana L. Feng - Del Mar CA
    Geoffrey C. Landis - Carlsbad CA
    Ronald G. Sosnowski - Coronado CA
  • Assignee:
    Nanogen/Becton Dickinson Partnership - San Diego CA
  • International Classification:
    C12Q 168
  • US Classification:
    435 912, 435 6, 536 243
  • Abstract:
    Methods and compositions of matter are provided for the strand displacement amplification of target nucleic acids of interest using primer pair sets that are anchored to electronically addressable capture sites on a microarray. The primer pair sets may be individually bound to the capture sites or may comprise a unique branched primer pair moiety. The anchored primers allow for the simultaneous multiplex capture, amplification and detection of a target nucleic acid derived from any sample source.
  • Charging Of Devices By Microwave Power Beaming

    view source
  • US Patent:
    6967462, Nov 22, 2005
  • Filed:
    Jun 5, 2003
  • Appl. No.:
    10/455139
  • Inventors:
    Geoffrey A. Landis - Berea OH, US
  • Assignee:
    NASA Glenn Research Center - Cleveland OH
  • International Classification:
    H01M010/46
  • US Classification:
    320101, 320109, 322 2 R
  • Abstract:
    A system for providing wireless, charging power and/or primary power to electronic/electrical devices is described whereby microwave energy is employed. Microwave energy is focused by a power transmitter comprising one or more adaptively-phased microwave array emitters onto a device to be charged. Rectennas within the device to be charged receive and rectify the microwave energy and use it for battery charging and/or for primary power. A locator signal generated by the device to be charged is analyzed by the system to determine the location of the device to be charged relative to the microwave array emitters, permitting the microwave energy to be directly specifically towards the device to be charged. Backscatter detectors respond to backscatter energy reflected off of any obstacle between the device to be charged and the microwave array emitters. Power to any obstructed microwave array emitter is reduced until the obstruction is removed.
  • Mems Closed Chamber Heat Engine And Electric Generator

  • US Patent:
    6978611, Dec 27, 2005
  • Filed:
    Sep 16, 2003
  • Appl. No.:
    10/453251
  • Inventors:
    Geoffrey A. Landis - Berea OH, US
  • Assignee:
    The United States of America as represented by the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration - Washington DC
  • International Classification:
    F01B029/00
  • US Classification:
    60513, 60512, 60515, 60508
  • Abstract:
    A heat engine, preferably combined with an electric generator, and advantageously implemented using micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) technologies as an array of one or more individual heat engine/generators. The heat engine is based on a closed chamber containing a motive medium, preferably a gas; means for alternately enabling and disabling transfer of thermal energy from a heat source to the motive medium; and at least one movable side of the chamber that moves in response to thermally-induced expansion and contraction of the motive medium, thereby converting thermal energy to oscillating movement. The electrical generator is combined with the heat engine to utilize movement of the movable side to convert mechanical work to electrical energy, preferably using electrostatic interaction in a generator capacitor. Preferably at least one heat transfer side of the chamber is placed alternately into and out of contact with the heat source by a motion capacitor, thereby alternately enabling and disabling conductive transfer of heat to the motive medium.

  • US Patent:
    7148417, Dec 12, 2006
  • Filed:
    Mar 31, 2003
  • Appl. No.:
    10/403714
  • Inventors:
    Geoffrey A. Landis - Berea OH, US
  • Assignee:
    The United States of America as represented by the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration - Washington DC
  • International Classification:
    H01L 31/0304
  • US Classification:
    136262, 136261
  • Abstract:
    A two-junction solar cell has a bottom solar cell junction of crystalline silicon, and a top solar cell junction of gallium phosphide. A three (or more) junction solar cell has bottom solar cell junctions of silicon, and a top solar cell junction of gallium phosphide. The resulting solar cells exhibit improved extended temperature operation.

    H01L 31/042
    H01L 31/00
  • US Classification:
    136244, 136252
  • Abstract:
    A method for protecting the photovoltaic cells in a photovoltaic (PV) array from reverse bias damage by utilizing a rechargeable battery for bypassing current from a shaded photovoltaic cell or group of cells, avoiding the need for a bypass diode. Further, the method mitigates the voltage degradation of a PV array caused by shaded cells.

  • Abstract:
    The present invention provides an implantable solid polymer delivery composition that can be formulated to release a bioactive agent to an interior body site at a controlled rate over an extended period of time by adjusting the various components of the composition. The controlled delivery of the composition avoids an initial drug spike, resulting in a smooth delivery profile over time. Polymer layers in the composition can be porous and are both biodegradable in water and body enzymes and biocompatible. Methods of making the implantable solid polymer compositions and methods of delivering a bioactive agent at a controlled rate to an interior body site are also provided.
