  • Catalysts for electrochemical COreduction and associated methods
    Patent number: 11173477
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrocatalyst for reduction of CO2 to produce multi-carbon compounds, comprising a multi-metal material comprising a primary metal being copper and at least one enhancer metal selected from germanium, gallium, tin, silicon, silver, gold, zinc and aluminium. The invention also relates to a process for electrochemical production of a multi-carbon compound from CO2 using such an electrocatalyst.
    Type: Grant

  • Systems and methods to remove shadowgraphic flow projections in OCT angiography
    Patent number: 10231619
    Abstract: Methods and systems for suppressing shadowgraphic flow projection artifacts in OCT angiography images of a sample are disclosed. In one example approach, normalized OCT angiography data is analyzed at the level of individual A-scans to classify signals as either flow or projection artifact. This classification information is then used to suppress projection artifacts in the three dimensional OCT angiography dataset.
