  • Patent number: 11957805
    Abstract: Methods of manufacturing a light-activated powder are provided which provide solid-state generation and release of chlorine dioxide without detectable amounts of any toxic by-products such as chlorine gas, chlorites, or chlorates. The powder need not be exposed to moisture, relative humidity, or an acid before or during exposure of the powder to visible light to generate the gas. The powder can also be prepared under conditions that minimize or prevent decomposition or oxidation of sodium chlorite or premature light activation of the powder during the manufacturing process to maximize its activity.

  • Publication number: 20230287439
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods for integrating a gene of interest into a chromosome of a host cell. In some embodiments, the methods include introducing into a host cell a first plasmid comprising a transposase coding sequence and a donor sequence, which includes a selectable marker coding sequence flanked by a first and a second lox site and is itself flanked by inverted repeats recognized by the transposase. Following transposase-mediated chromosomal integration of the donor sequence into the host cell, a second plasmid is introduced, which comprises the gene of interest and a second selectable marker coding sequence, both flanked by a first and a second lox site. The gene of interest is chromosomally integrated into the host cell by recombinase-mediated cassette exchange (RMCE) between the donor sequence and the second plasmid via Cre-lox recombination. Further provided herein are host cells, vectors, and methods of producing a product related thereto.

  • Patent number: 10877231
    Abstract: The present disclosure is drawn to wirebonding for optical engines having side-mounted optoelectronic components. An integrated circuit is mounted on a first surface of a substrate block, and an optoelectronic component is positioned on a second surface of the substrate block and is oriented to emit light in a direction parallel to a plane defined by the first surface. A wirebond is drawn between the integrated circuit and a base substrate on which the substrate block is mounted. A optoelectronic component is then contacted with the wirebond, and a portion of the wirebond between the optoelectronic component and the base substrate is removed.

  • Patent number: 10367107
    Abstract: A photovoltaic device, particularly a solar cell, comprises an interface between a layer of Group III-V material and a layer of Group IV material with a thin silicon diffusion barrier provided at or near the interface. The silicon barrier controls the diffusion of Group V atoms into the Group IV material, which is doped n-type thereby. The n-type doped region can provide the p-n junction of a solar cell in the Group IV material with superior solar cell properties. It can also provide a tunnel diode in contact with a p-type region of the III-V material, which tunnel diode is also useful in solar cells.
