  • Patent number: 11973233
    Abstract: A catalyst structure includes: (1) a substrate; (2) a catalyst layer on the substrate; and (3) an adhesion layer disposed between the substrate and the catalyst layer. In some implementations, an average thickness of the adhesion layer is about 1 nm or less. In some implementations, a material of the catalyst layer at least partially extends into a region of the adhesion layer. In some implementations, the catalyst layer is characterized by a lattice strain imparted by the adhesion layer.

  • Publication number: 20240122712
    Abstract: Apparatus, for use at a valve of a heart of a subject, includes a first catheter, a second catheter, and a translation element. The translation element is connected to, and operatively joins, the distal ends of the first catheter and the second catheter. The translation element is operable to translate the distal ends laterally with respect to each other to transition the apparatus between (i) a first state in which the distal ends are held next to each other for transluminal advancement to the heart, and (ii) a second state in which the distal ends are spaced apart from each other for positioning at a first location on the annulus and a second location on the annulus, respectively. The apparatus is configured to, while in the second state, from the distal ends, anchor a first tissue anchor at the first location, and a second tissue anchor at the second location.

  • Patent number: 11762960
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for secure file distribution. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The code is executable by the processor to divide a file that is intended for a recipient into a plurality of portions. The code is executable by the processor to associate each of the plurality of portions with a different one of the recipient's electronic devices. The code is executable by the processor to assemble the plurality of portions of the file for the recipient in response to authenticating the recipient on each of the recipient's electronic devices that is associated with a portion of the plurality of portions of the file.
