Abstract: A heterodimer particle is provided which comprises a first component particle comprising magnetite and a second component particle comprising silver. The second component particle may have a structure and a particle size selected to generate two-photon fluorescence emission. The heterodimer particle may be irradiated with light of a wavelength selected to induce two-photon fluorescence emission, which is then detected. Tetramethylammonium hydroxide may be bonded to the surface of the first component and glutathione may be bonded to the surface of the second component. The heterodimer particle may be formed by preparing a magnetite particle and growing a silver particle on the magnetite particle, in the presence of 1,2-dodecanediol as a reducing agent.

Abstract: A device housing includes a main body and a hook portion. The main body defines a connecting hole. The hook portion is formed on an end of the main body. A width of the connecting hole gradually decreases from a first end to a second end, along a direction towards the hook portion. When the molten material flowing through the connecting hole cools, a plastic engaging portion is formed in the connecting hole to securely engage the fastener.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for aggregating flow records representing network flow. Specifically, flow records may be organized according to whether they are request records, response records associated with the request records, or flow records associated with neither category. A request record may represent a network flow to a particular device of a particular network flow type, for example, network flow to a standard port. The request records and flow records are then aggregated.
