Abstract: A base includes apertures and surface features for precisely aligning central processing units (CPUs) and jackets with each other. Applicator heads are used to exert contact force against respective jackets during adhesive bonding to the CPUs. Each jacket functions as a gripping or handling feature during subsequent positioning or transport of the corresponding CPU. Such CPUs can be inserted into servers or other entities by way of automated mechanisms or manual operations with reduced risk of damage, misalignment or other problems.

Abstract: A latching mechanism in a carrier tray is provided herein. The latching mechanism may include a sliding rack gear with gear teeth and a lever arm that includes a gear mechanism that engages with the gear teeth of the sliding rack gear. The latching mechanism may include a number of gears, where the gears may operatively couple the sliding rack gear with a first latching member and a second latching member. The first latching member may be disposed along a first end of a sliding rack. The second latching member may be disposed along a second end of the sliding rack. Movement of the lever arm to a closed position may actuate the sliding rack, thereby, simultaneously rotating the first and the second latching members. The simultaneous rotation of the latching members may supply a balanced force of pressure upon the carrier tray to alleviate the binding of connectors.

Abstract: Products, compositions, systems, and methods for modifying a target structure which mediates or is associated with a biological activity, including treatment of conditions, disorders, or diseases mediated by or associated with a target structure, such as a virus, cell, subcellular structure or extracellular structure. The methods may be performed in situ in a non-invasive manner by placing a nanoparticle having a metallic shell on at least a fraction of a surface in a vicinity of a target structure in a subject and applying an initiation energy to a subject thus producing an effect on or change to the target structure directly or via a modulation agent. The nanoparticle is configured, upon exposure to a first wavelength ?1, to generate a second wavelength ?2 of radiation having a higher energy than the first wavelength ?1.
