Abstract: Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a printing system comprising one or more print heads each comprising a writing energy source. The one or more print heads can be constructed to form text and/or image elements by changing the physical and/or chemical properties of a media or by jetting of ink drops to on a media. The media and ink drops can comprise graphene or graphene derivatives.

Abstract: Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a method, which can comprise isolating a single molecule of a solid organic compound via a microencapsulation process. The single molecule can be adapted for use in at least one of a drug, pharmaceutical application, microelectronic device, bioengineering application, biomedical product, agricultural product, or agricultural medicine. The microencapsulation process can comprise (1) adsorbing the single molecule on a template; and (2) dividing the template into species using electrostatic charge generating molecules.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program products for controlling gain in a scintillation detector. Calibration count rates, each representing an integral count rate above a different threshold, are obtained from a photomultiplier tube. Photomultiplier tube gain is adjusted if a result from evaluating a relationship of calibration count rates varies from an expected result based on integral count rate versus threshold for a reference peak in the energy spectrum of the radiation source. An additional, different relationship may also be evaluated and an additional gain adjustment performed when a result indicates that the calibration count rates are not from the reference peak. A same radiation source may be used for collecting test counts and calibration counts.

Abstract: Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a graphene hybrid composite (GHC). The GHC can be formed between specific nano carbon materials and graphene generated via pyrolysis of solid carbon sources. A Raman spectrum of the GHC can show a major 2D band at approximately 2650 cm?1, a minor D and G band at approximately 1350 cm?1 and approximately 1575 cm?1, and an intensity ratio of 2D band over D band and G band greater than 1.
