  • Publication number: 20240121020
    Abstract: Devices, systems and processes for identifying and detecting an interfering signal are described. A process may include conducting a scan of one or more frequency bands to obtain at least one scan result and determining therefrom if a response condition has been detected. If so detected, a first frequency band corresponding to the detected response condition may be identified and a response condition action to be performed determined. If no response condition action is to be performed, scanning continues. If a response condition is to be performed two or more available sensors are identified and a first sensor is selected. A scan plan is developed and then initiated by the first sensor. Data from the first sensor is received and analyzed to identify a second frequency band indicative of an interfering signal. Based on at least the scan data, a location for a signal interference source (SIS) may be estimated.

  • Publication number: 20210265678
    Abstract: A method for supercritical fluid extraction of metal from a source, the method comprising: providing a reactor chamber; providing a source comprising a target metal; optionally, providing a chelating agent; providing a solvent; adding the source comprising the target metal, the chelating agent and the solvent into the reactor chamber; adjusting the temperature and pressure in the reactor chamber so that the solvent is heated and compressed above its critical temperature and pressure; optionally, providing mechanical agitation to the reactor chamber; recovering a chelate comprising the target metal.

  • Publication number: 20160013243
    Abstract: A multilayer structure for use in a photosensor. The multilayer structure includes a substrate, a thin film transistor comprising a metal oxide semiconductor channel and a photosensing element comprising amorphous silicon. The thin film transistor is electrically connected to the photosensing element, and the thin film transistor and photosensing element are on the substrate and separated by a hydrogen barrier structure.
