  • Publication number: 20230398732
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes materials, methods, and systems for three-dimensional printing. In one example, a three-dimensional printing kit can include a fusing agent and a microbe-inhibiting agent. The fusing agent can include water and an electromagnetic radiation absorber. The electromagnetic radiation absorber can absorb radiation and convert the radiation energy to heat. The microbe-inhibiting agent can include a liquid vehicle and a metal bis(dithiolene) complex. The disclosure also describes methods of three-dimensional printing that utilize a metal-containing microbe-inhibiting material, which can be a metal bis(dithiolene) complex or other materials.

  • Patent number: 11280740
    Abstract: A luminescence-enhancement system can include a luminescence-enhancement sensor having a substrate and a group of nanofingers with individual nanofingers that can be flexible and include a support end attached to the substrate, a distal tip positioned distally with respect to the substrate, and a middle portion between the support end and the distal tip. A coating of a metal or metal alloy can be applied to the substrate and the distal tip that is conductively continuous. The middle portion can be devoid of the coating or the coating at the middle portion is conductively discontinuous. A liquid ejector can be present and can include a jetting nozzle to eject a liquid droplet having a volume of 2 pL to 10 ?L. The group of nanofingers and the jetting nozzle can be positionable relative to one another for the droplet to be deposited on the group of nanofingers.

  • Publication number: 20220026361
    Abstract: In an example method, an ordered array of microdots including an analyte printed on a surface of a surface-enhanced substrate of an analysis chip is probed with an excitation beam of electromagnetic radiation. Emitted radiation is detected from a number of microdots of the ordered array of microdots. Calibration data is generated for the analysis chip with respect to the analyte based on a detected shift in the emitted radiation as compared to the excitation beam.

  • Patent number: 10983061
    Abstract: A surface enhanced luminescence analyte nano pillar stage may include a substrate, an array of closable pillars extending from the substrate and a fluid supply connected to the array of pillars. The fluid supply is to at least partially replenish fluid amongst the pillars of the array that has evaporated to maintain a level of the fluid amongst the pillars of the array below tops of the pillars.
