Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for microscopic examination of phytoplankton. The present disclosure solves the problem of decreased counting accuracy of perioptometry in a dry environment. The method is as follows: step 1, making an analyte into a glass slide, performing qualitative identification of the phytoplankton in the field of view; and step 2, drying the glass slide; after drying, counting the phytoplankton and full-slide rare algae on the glass slide microscopically. When the humidity of microscopy room is only 20%, the method of the present disclosure may count a sample accurately, which has a significant increase in counting accuracy compared with the existing perioptometry. The method of the present disclosure effectively solves the problem of failure to perform the perioptometry accurately due to dry ambient humidity.

Abstract: Described are CMOS-compatible protonic resistive devices (e.g., processing elements and/or memory elements). In embodiments, a protonic resistive memory can be formed from a proton-sensitive metal oxide channel where the concentration of protons intercalated inside the layer is controlled to modulate its conductivity. The protons can initially be supplied to the material stack by an implantation method. Irradiation techniques can be implemented to increase the concentration and conductivity of protons inside the materials. Some designs can put the active layer and reservoir in direct contact, creating an electrolyte-free device. Designs provide scalable solutions for full-scale Si-integration.
