  • Publication number: 20240133792
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for ghost cytometry (GC), which may be used to produce an image of an object without using a spatially resolving detector. This may be used to perform image-free ultrafast fluorescence “imaging” cytometry, based on, for example, a single pixel detector. Spatial information obtained from the motion of cells relative to a patterned optical structure may be compressively converted into signals that arrive sequentially at a single pixel detector. Combinatorial use of the temporal waveform with the intensity distribution of the random or pseudo-random pattern may permit computational reconstruction of cell morphology. Machine learning methods may be applied directly to the compressed waveforms without image reconstruction to enable efficient image-free morphology-based cytometry.

  • Publication number: 20240130083
    Abstract: A vapor chamber in which an enclosed space is formed, and a working fluid is sealed in this space, the enclosed space including: a plurality of condensate flow paths through which a fluid that is the working fluid in a condensing state flows; and vapor flow paths through which a vapor that is the working fluid in a vaporizing state flows, wherein each of projecting parts with which each of the vapor flow paths is provided has a projecting amount varying in an extending direction of the vapor flow paths; a pitch for opening parts that allow the vapor flow paths and the condensate flow paths to communicate varies in the extending direction of the vapor flow paths; or wall parts that separate the flow paths each have a given relationship with a transverse cross section of a given flow path.
