Patent number: 11808695Abstract: A single ion imaging-based detection method and device are provided. After being reflected by an electromodulation singularity coupling differential imaging reaction unit, a probe beam from a total internal reflection ellipsometry imager converges on a CCD or CMOS detector, the acquired sensing surface image data is transmitted to a signal processing unit, the common mode noise is eliminated by performing spectral analysis on differential signals of a working sensing surface and a reference sensing surface, the peak intensity of a modulating signal is selected on the spectrum for wave filtering to obtain a real-time signal of interaction of single ions or charged molecules at a solid-liquid interface. Based on the singularity effect at a surface plasma resonance angle of an ellipsometry phase and a corresponding optical signal noise suppression scheme, the present application can achieve real-time observation of the adsorption of single ions or charged molecules at a solid surface.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2022Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: INSTITUTE OF MECHANICS, CHINESE ACADEMY OF SCIENCESInventors: Wei Liu, Yu Niu, Ziren Luo

Publication number: 20230154809Abstract: An implantable device and method of manufacture include a substantially hermetic polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE) enclosure with closely-spaced wires extending out of the enclosure. The implantable device includes a PCTFE first portion of an enclosure and a PCTFE second portion of the enclosure. The first and second portions are configured to mate with each other to form the enclosure. A plurality of insulated wires extend between the first and second portions of the enclosure. Each of the insulated wires are parallel to each other and separated by less than 150 micrometers (?m) from a neighboring wire. A thermal weld seam of PCTFE is disposed between the first portion of the enclosure and the second portion of the enclosure and conformally adheres around insulation of each wire such that the enclosure is sealed.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2021Publication date: May 18, 2023Applicant: Neuralink Corp.Inventors: John W.F.

Monolithic, biocompatible feedthrough for hermetically sealed electronics and methods of manufacture
Patent number: 11107703Abstract: Methods of manufacturing a biocompatible, hermetic feedthrough monolithically integrated with a biocompatible ribbon cable are described, as well as the resulting devices themselves. The hermetic feedthrough is created by placing glass over a mold of doped silicon or other material with a higher melting temperature than the glass and heating it to reflow the glass into the mold. The glass is then ground or otherwise removed to reveal a flat surface, and tiny pillars that were in the mold are isolated in the glass to form electrically conductive vias. The flat surface is used to cast a polymer and build up a ribbon cable, photolithographically or otherwise, that is monolithically attached to the vias.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2020Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: Neuralink Corp.Inventors: Vanessa M. Tolosa, Camilo A. Diaz-Botia, Supin Chen, Felix Deku, Yu Niu Huang, Mark J. Hettick, Zachary M. Tedoff -
