Abstract: A method and an apparatus for controlling a wavelength of an optical module, and a storage medium. The method comprises: determining an initial temperature compensation curve corresponding to a transmitter optical subassembly TOSA in an optical module (S101); obtaining a first control voltage to be applied to a TEC according to a current ambient temperature and the initial temperature compensation curve; and controlling the TOSA to emit a first light wave based on the first control voltage, whose wavelength is a first wavelength (S102); when the first wavelength does not meet a setting range, adjusting the control voltage applied to the TEC until the control voltage applied to the TEC reaches a second control voltage, the second control voltage being capable of controlling the TOSA to emit a second light wave at the current ambient temperature, whose wavelength is a second wavelength meeting the setting range; and updating the initial temperature compensation curve based on the second control voltage (S103).

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method to synthesize composite nanoparticle structures combining the functions of individual nanoparticle components, such as quantum dots, gold nanoparticles and iron oxide nanoparticles. This novel technology solves some of the major problems of the commonly used synthesis methods such as poorly-controlled ratios between different components in a composite nanoparticle. This platform technology has great potential in applying nanotechnology in biomedical detection and imaging, solar cells, as well as environmental monitoring.

Abstract: A system for one or more of detecting, isolating, identifying, transporting, and quantifying a target analyte in a fluid suspected of containing the target analyte. The system includes a magnetic nanocomposite having one or more selectively magnetic nanoparticles in a first nanocontainer, and a first binding moiety linked to the first nanocontainer and adapted to specifically bind the target analyte, and a luminescent nanocomposite having one or more selectively luminescent nanoparticles in a second nanocontainer, and a second binding moiety linked to the second nanocontainer and adapted to specifically bind the target analyte. The magnetic nanocomposite and the luminescent nanocomposite do not specifically bind to each other in the absence of the target analyte. The first and second binding moieties may be adapted to simultaneously bind the target analyte to form a magnetic luminescent nanoassembly.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for conditioning the air within an interior area, includes a fan, a first module receiving air from the fan and preferably a first liquid, and a second module receiving air from the first module and preferably including a second liquid. The modules are preferably stacked, whereby air enters the fan module on the bottom and is delivered to the environment from the second module at the top. The air flows from the fan along a pathway which prevents liquid from escaping from the modules other than as vapor entrained in the air. The first liquid is preferably an aqueous alkaline solution, and the second liquid preferably includes a disinfectant and/or a buffer to neutralize the alkaline before air is delivered to the environment. The modules may have an inner wall and an outer wall presenting a dead-air space therebetween.

Abstract: A cutlery support includes first and second upright standards, a blade support, a handle support, and a plurality of separators defining an open area therebetween. Cutlery such as knives are placed on the cutlery support to engage the blade support and the handle support with the blade lying within the open area. The blade support is preferably configured with a blade stopper and cutting edge support, each of which engage the blade at only one point. Smaller pieces of cutlery, such as shears and small knives, may be carried by a cutlery receiver with their blades in an upright orientation lying within the open area. Additional knives having ferromagnetic blades may be held for temporary use by magnets in the upright standards. The standards, blade support, handle support and separators are preferably of a non-porous, transparent and corrosion-resistant material.

Abstract: An exhaust gas cooling and particulate scrubbing system for automobiles includes a first stage intercooler for initial, indirect cooling of the exhaust gas and a direct exhaust gas cooling and scrubbing device preferably positioned downstream in the exhaust system therefrom. The intercooler is designed to provide circulation of a liquid cooling medium by convection and has airflow ducts positioned within a surrounding jacket oriented to permit air to move therethrough during movement of the automobile. The a direct exhaust gas cooling and scrubbing device passes the exhaust gas through a liquid cooling medium whereby the exhaust gas is cooled in an effort to trap suspended particulates in the liquid cooling medium.
