Low Pressure Drop Micro Preconcentrators with a Cobweb Tenax-TA Film

VTIP:10-086

We are disclosing the design of high performance low pressure drop micro preconcentrator chips for micro analytical instruments and a new deposition method which results in a cobweb structure of the adsorbent material, thereby significantly increasing the concentration efficiency without obstructing the gas flow.

Freeze-dry Deposition of Semi-crystalline Adsorbent Polymer for Chemical Micro Preconcentrators

VTIP:10-050

We are disclosing a new method to coat micro pillars with the adsorbent polymer resulting in the formation of grass-like nanowires, significant increase in the µPC concentration factor, and the enhanced durability of the chip in retaining the adsorbed species.

Novel Quasi-Distributed Intrinsic Fabry-Perot Fiber Sensor

VTIP:04.102

This invention presents the principle, fabrication process and experimental results of a novel intrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (IFPI) fiber sensor targeted for quasi-distributed temperature, strain and pressure sensing applications. Compared with existing IFPI technologies, the invention has advantages in the following aspects: the fabrication process is significantly simplified and highly ...
