  • Patent number: 12259226
    Abstract: The method for measuring the thickness of thin films uses diffraction of a polarized light beam through a thin film to indirectly measure its thickness. The thin film is prepared on an optically opaque substrate and the thin film and the optically opaque substrate are sandwiched between a pair of optically opaque walls, in a manner similar to a conventional single-slit diffract setup where the thin film serves as the slit. A polarized light beam with a wavelength ? is diffracted through the thin film such that a diffraction pattern is formed on a surface. A set of light intensities of the diffraction pattern formed on the surface is measured for multiple values of a diffraction angle ?. A thickness, d, of the thin film is then determined by fitting the measured set of light intensities to an equation for normalized intensity, Inor(?, d, ?), given by I n ? o ? r ( ? , d , ? ) = [ sin ? ( ? ? d ? ? ? ) ? ? d ? ? ? ] 2 .

  • Publication number: 20250090626
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel peptide for promoting the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts or inhibiting the proliferation and differentiation of preadipocytes, and use thereof. A novel peptide is designed on the basis of an amino acid site, from among parts of a myostatin (MSTN) protein, binding to a fibromodulin protein, and then: C2C12 cells, which are a mouse myoblast cell line, are treated with the peptide so that cell proliferation and differentiation, muscle regeneration and the like are observed, and it has been identified that the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts and the regeneration of muscles increase after the treatment with the designed peptide; and 3T3L1 cells, which are mouse preadipocytes, are treated with the peptide so that cell proliferation, fat differentiation, and the like are observed, and it has been identified that the proliferation of preadipocytes and fat differentiation decrease after the treatment with the peptide.

  • Publication number: 20240125728
    Abstract: A new class of sensing elements made of a protein pore fused to a programmable antibody-mimetic binder. This modular design expands the utility of nanopore sensors to numerous proteins while preserving their architecture, specificity, and sensitivity. The sensing elements were validated with protein analytes that drastically vary in size, charge, and structural complexity. These analytes produce unique electrical signatures that depend on their identity and quantity and the binder-analyte assembly at the nanopore tip.

  • Publication number: 20100321579
    Abstract: The present specification discloses a processing architecture that has multiple levels of parallelism and is highly configurable, yet optimized for media processing. At the highest level, the architecture is structured to enable each processor, which is dedicated to a specific media processing function, to operate substantially in parallel. In addition to processor-level parallelism, each processing unit can operate on multiple words in parallel, rather than just a single word per clock cycle. Moreover, at the instruction level, the control data memory, data memory, and function specific dath paths can be controlled all within the same clock cycle.
