Abstract: Modified ribosomes that were selected using a dipeptidyl-puromycin aminonucleoside are used to mediate site-specific incorporation of one or more peptides and peptidomimetics into protein in a cell free translation system. In addition, new fluorescent dipeptidomimetics have been synthesized and incorporated into proteins, as well as modified proteins containing one or more non-naturally occurring dipeptides.

Abstract: A photovoltaic photodetector includes a substrate, a graphene layer, and a dielectric layer positioned between the substrate and the graphene layer. One or more first antenna electrodes includes a first metal in direct contact with the graphene layer. One or more second antenna electrodes includes a second metal in direct contact with the graphene layer. The first and second metals have different work functions. A drain electrode is electrically coupled to the one or more first antenna electrodes, and a source electrode is electrically coupled to the one or more second antenna electrodes. The photovoltaic photodetector can be configured to be operable over a wavelength region of 2 ?m to 24 ?m and has a response time of 10 ns or less.

Abstract: Tridentate cyclometalated complexes with rigid six-membered coordination rings of General Formula I having tunable emission wavelengths in the visible range. These emitters are suitable for full color displays and lighting applications.

Abstract: The wear status of a micro-endmill tool may be inferred by monitoring the chip production rate of the tool in operation. Chips may be extracted from a work area, captured on an adhesive surface, imaged, and counted to determine the chip production rate. When the rate of chip production falls, the feed rate of the micro-endmill may be modified to a level suitable for the current state of tool wear. In this manner, costly and inconvenient work stoppages to evaluate the wear status of a tool are eliminated.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates generally to apparatus comprising conductive polymers and more particularly to tag and tag devices comprising a redox-active polymer film, and method of using and manufacturing the same. In one aspect, an apparatus includes a substrate and a conductive structure formed on the substrate which includes a layer of redox-active polymer film having mobile ions and electrons. The conductive structure further includes a first terminal and a second terminal configured to receive an electrical signal therebetween, where the layer of redox-active polymer is configured to conduct an electrical current generated by the mobile ions and the electrons in response to the electrical signal. The apparatus additionally includes a detection circuit operatively coupled to the conductive structure and configured to detect the electrical current flowing through the conductive structure.

Abstract: An electrode for a charge storage device and a method for forming the electrode. The electrode comprises an electrode body having an essentially continuous phase of an active material, an essentially continuous phase of an electroconductive material, and an essentially continuous phase of void space. The active material is oxidized by applying a potential to the electrode body in the charge storage device so as to transform the active material to an oxide species thereof. The resulting oxide species of the active material has a higher active surface area than the active material prior to the oxidizing.
