Abstract: A method and apparatus for surface plasmon resonance imaging are provided for imaging the surface plasmon resonance signals caused by the interaction of biomolecules. In particular, the method and apparatus can image the slightly spectral change in a surface plasmon resonance mode by comparing the light intensities of two bands in the frequency domain of the surface plasmon.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for abstracting a source of sensor data by translating data sink processor communications from a hardware-independent format to a hardware-dependent format and by translating data source portion communications from a hardware-dependent format to a hardware-independent format.

Abstract: A curved diffraction grating includes a substrate and a metal layer. The substrate is a two-dimensional curved plate structure and has a first surface, a second surface and a plurality of microstructures. The first surface is disposed opposite to the second surface, and the microstructures are disposed on the second surface. Each of the microstructures is a saw-tooth structure and has a clear blazed angle. The metal layer is disposed on the microstructures and has a plurality of diffraction structures corresponding to the microstructures. A spectrometer containing the curved diffraction grating and a manufacturing method of the curved diffraction grating are also disclosed.

Abstract: A car mount includes a base assembly having a supporting surface and a first gear structure. A main body includes a cover and is disposed on the supporting surface. The cover has a peripheral part, wherein the cover retreats inwardly from the peripheral part along a direction opposite to the base assembly to form a recession space. A rotor includes an axle body and a second gear structure. The axle body is accommodated in the recession space. A part of the axle body protrudes through the cover. The second gear structure is formed on a surface of the rotor facing the supporting surface. A first ring housing is rotatably disposed on the main body and connects the axle body. The first ring housing is capable of operating in a lock mode and an unlock mode for driving the rotor approaching to or departing from the supporting surface.

Abstract: A system and method for producing label-free micro-array biochip based on the surface plasmon resonance in metallic nano-slit arrays, wherein the micro-array biochip of the does not utilize fluorescent labeling. Without the fluorescence labeling, the label-free micro-array substantially reduces the sample cost and can detect bio-molecular interactions in their native forms.
