  • Publication number: 20240125816
    Abstract: A probe head with a cylindrical portion and an oblique truncated portion angled downward toward a high-powered electronic device under testing. The probe head has a proximal end comprising an oblique truncated cone portion angled relative to the longitudinal axis at an input angle and has an analog signal input. The probe head has a digital signal output provided on the distal end of the housing.

  • Patent number: 11939634
    Abstract: The invention provides methods for simultaneously amplifying multiple nucleic acid regions of interest in one reaction volume as well as methods for selecting a library of primers for use in such amplification methods. The invention also provides library of primers with desirable characteristics, such as minimal formation of amplified primer dimers or other non-target amplicons.

  • Publication number: 20240013084
    Abstract: A scalable point defect qubit control system may include a diamond waveguide array comprising one or more diamond waveguides and a microwave line disposed proximally to the diamond waveguide array. Each diamond waveguide in the diamond waveguide array may include one or more qubits encoded in point defect sites. The microwave line may be configured to receive a direct current (DC) signal configured to shift an energy level of each point defect qubit of the one or more point defect qubits based on a position of the point defect in the diamond waveguide array, and receive an alternating current (AC) signal configured to control a quantum state of a point defect qubit of the one or more point defect qubits, wherein one or more properties of the AC signal are based on the shift in the energy level induced by the DC signal.

  • Patent number: 5679926
    Abstract: A sensor assembly includes a sensor including a mating feature disposed thereon. The sensor assembly also includes a harness having a protective sleeve including a sleeve end. The sensor assembly further includes a sleeve retainer connected to the sleeve end. The sleeve retainer includes a plurality of inwardly projecting spring tabs adapted to snap-fittedly engage the mating feature on the sensor to connect the sleeve retainer and harness to the sensor. Upon axial movement of the sleeve retainer over the sensor, the spring tabs snap-fittedly engage the mating feature on the sensor and hold the protective sleeve in position relative the sensor.
