Publication number: 20200261871Abstract: A mixer for synthetic quartz includes a mixing barrel (1), a power transmission system (2), a mixing system (3), and multiple material receiving receptacles (4). The power transmission system is provided above the mixing tank. The mixing system is provided inside the mixing tank. The power transmission system is used to drive the mixing system to move. An opening is arranged at each of two ends of the material receiving receptacle. The multiple material receiving receptacles (4) are arranged at a top portion of the mixing tank, and end portions of two adjacent material receiving receptacles are spaced apart from each other without contact there between. A resin experiences low flow resistance in the material receiving receptacle, and thus can fall smoothly without accumulating in the material receiving receptacle. Moreover, the material receiving receptacle can be cleaned easily.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2020Publication date: August 20, 2020Inventors: Jianping QIU, Gao He, Qingguo Zhang

Publication number: 20030065268Abstract: Photon migration methods are employed to image absorbing objects embedded in a turbid medium such as tissue. For improved resolution, early arriving photons are detected to provide data with image reconstruction based on optical computed tomography (CT). The CT method is generalized to take into account the distributions of photon paths. A point spread function (PSF) is expressed in terms of the Green's function for the transport equation. This PSF provides weighting functions for use in a generalized series expansion method. Measurements of turbid medium with scattering and absorption properties included coaxial transmission scans collected in two projections. Blurring associated with multiple scattering was removed and high-resolution images can be obtained.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 4, 2001Publication date: April 3, 2003Applicant: Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyInventors: Kun Chen, Lev T.
