  • NOVEL SEVERE FEVER WITH THROMBOCYTOPENIA SYNDROME VIRUS
    Publication number: 20210121557
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel genotype of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome viruses and use thereof as an immunogenic composition. The severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome viruses of the present invention are genetically different from conventional severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome viruses and are novel viruses taxonomically belonging to three sub-groups of genotype B. In view of the vaccine property that specific genotype viruses alone show only limited protective potential, the novel viruses of the present invention may be advantageously used as a vaccine having excellent cross-immunogenicity for SFTSV.

  • Systems and methods for fabrication of superconducting integrated circuits
    Patent number: 10991755
    Abstract: Various techniques and apparatus permit fabrication of superconductive circuits and structures, for instance Josephson junctions, which may, for example be useful in quantum computers. For instance, a low magnetic flux noise trilayer structure may be fabricated having a dielectric structure or layer interposed between two elements or layers capable of superconducting. A superconducting via may directly overlie a Josephson junction. A structure, for instance a Josephson junction, may be carried on a planarized dielectric layer. A fin may be employed to remove heat from the structure. A via capable of superconducting may have a width that is less than about 1 micrometer. The structure may be coupled to a resistor, for example by vias and/or a strap connector.
