Abstract: A blower according to a present embodiment includes a blower unit that has a housing on which a slit is formed to extend vertically, and a support unit that has a support pillar inserted through the slit and pivotally coupled with the blower unit to be swingable vertically. And, by forming a distance between a lower end of the slit and the support pillar in a horizontally directed state in which an airflow direction of the blower unit is in line with a horizontal direction, it is configured to make the blower unit swingable such that the airflow direction of the blower unit is directed toward a lower side below the horizontal direction.
Abstract: In a skeleton frame of a storage box, a boundary frame, front columns, and rear columns are integrally formed. Therefore, the ease of assembly of the storage box can be improved. In addition, gouged portions that are depressed inward in a width direction from an outermost shape in the width direction of the boundary frame are formed in both side portions in the width direction of the boundary frame. When the skeleton frames are nested, the front columns of the skeleton frame on a lower side are disposed in the gouged portions of the skeleton frame on an upper side. Accordingly, even in the skeleton frame where the rear columns and the front columns are integrally formed with the boundary frame, the skeleton frames can be nested in a vertically stacked state.
Abstract: The disclosed flow cytometer includes a wavelength division multiplexer (WDM). The WDM includes an extended light source providing light that forms an object, a collimating optical element that captures light from the extended light source and projects a magnified image of the object as a first light beam, and a first focusing optical element configured to focus the first light beam to a size smaller than the object of the extended light source to a first semiconductor detector. The disclosed flow cytometer further includes a composite microscope objective to direct light emitted by a particle in a flow channel in a viewing zone of the composite microscope to the extended light source, a fluidic system and a peristaltic pump configured to supply liquid sheath and liquid sample to the flow channel, and a laser diode system to illuminate the particle in the flow channel.

Abstract: A storage box is configured to include a rectangular parallelepiped box-shaped case main body that is opened to a front side and an upper side, a top plate that is assembled to an upper end part of the case main body, and a rectangular frame-shaped frame member is assembled to the front end part of the case main body and the front end part of the top plate. As a result, the rigidity of the front end part of the storage box can be increased by the frame member. In addition, the opening-closing panel is rotatably assembled to the frame member. The opening-closing panel is disposed at the rotation position by being rotated from the closed position to the front side, and by sliding from the rotation position to the rear side the rail portion of the case main body is slid, and then, is disposed at the housing position.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods of fabricating short-wave infrared detector arrays including readout and absorption wafers connected by a recrystallized a-Si layer. The absorber wafer includes a SWIR conversion layer with a Ge1-xSnx alloy composition. Process steps realize the readout wafer and a portion of the absorption wafer, including bonding the readout wafer and a first portion of the absorption wafer. The a-Si intermediate layer linking the readout wafer and the first portion of the absorption wafer the a-Si intermediate layer is recrystallized by applying heat by a light source. The method assures a temperature profile between the light entrance surface and the CMOS electronic layer of the readout wafer maintaining readout layer temperature <350° C. during recrystallization. After the recrystallization process step the absorption wafer is completed by depositing the SWIR conversion layer. Also disclosed is a SWIR detector array realized by the method and SWIR detector array applications.
