  • Process for creating lithographically-defined plasmonic structures with enhanced Q factors
    Patent number: 9233393
    Abstract: A method for plasmonic structure manufacture and for protecting a plasmonic nanostructure during annealing is provided. The method includes: lithographically forming a plasmonic nanostructure on a substrate; encapsulating the plasmonic nanostructure in high temperature resistant material; annealing the plasmonic nanostructure; and removing the high temperature resistant material to reveal the annealed plasmonic nanostructure.
    Type: Grant

  • METHOD OF EXTRACTING AND PURIFYING POLYHYDROXYALKANOATE BIOPLASTIC
    Publication number: 20110160427
    Abstract: Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) is an intracellular polymer that is biologically synthesized by microorganisms as carbon and energy reserve material. This biodegradable material has properties similar to petrochemical based thermoplastics. Currently methods of PHA extraction and purification from bacterial suspension use solvent or halogenated-based approaches which are costly and pose severe environmental damage. This invention describes a combined treatment of alkaline and homogenization for extracting and purifying PHA, with higher PHA purity and recovery.
