  • Automated video-microscopic imaging and data acquisition system for colloid deposition measurements
    Patent number: 6836559
    Abstract: A video microscopic visualization system and image processing and data extraction and processing method for in situ detailed quantification of the deposition of sub-micrometer particles onto an arbitrary surface and determination of their concentration across the bulk suspension. The extracted data includes (a) surface concentration and flux of deposited, attached and detached colloids, (b) surface concentration and flux of arriving and departing colloids, (c) distribution of colloids in the bulk suspension in the direction perpendicular to the deposition surface, and (d) spatial and temporal distributions of deposited colloids.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 9, 2001
    Date of Patent: December 28, 2004
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Amr I. Abdel-Fattah, Paul W. Reimus
