Structured light quick scanning microscopic imaging method

ActiveCN103207449AReduced modulation speed dependenceReduced robustness requirementsMicroscopesModulation patternPhysics
The invention relates to a structured light quick scanning microscopic imaging method. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) controlling a spatial light modulator to generate a modulation pattern with single spatial frequency by a computer, and projecting the modulation pattern on a sample fracture; (2) under the condition that the phase of the modulation pattern is unchanged, driving a sample to move by an electric control movement platform, and synchronously triggering a line-scan digital camera to take a picture; (3) changing the phase of the modulation pattern, and scanning the same imaging region until different lighting phase images required by structured light imaging is acquired; and (4) moving a sample, and executing the steps (2) to (4) for the subsequent adjacent imaging region until the whole sample fracture is scanned. By performing phase change for one time before scanning motion is performed at each time, requirements of imaging on the speed and robustness of the modulator are reduced; and in single-time scanning motion, a complete image is acquired, and adjacent images are partially overlapped. Sample motion and camera exposure are synchronously performed, so that time is saved, and imaging speed is increased.

Then, a P+ region is formed to serve as an anode of the diode structure. An N+ region can be formed on the surface of the substrate to serve as a cathode of the diode structure. By changing the size of the opening in the N+ layer during fabrication, the breakdown voltage of the diode structure can be changed (tuned) to a desired value.

Transient voltage suppressor and method for manufacturing the same

Disclosed a transient voltage suppressor and a method for manufacturing the same. According to the transient voltage suppressor, an additional gate stack layer is introduced based on the prior transient voltage suppressor, and the diffusion isolation regions are reused as the conductive vias, so that, the gate stack layer, the first doped region, the conductive vias, and the second semiconductor layer constitute a MOS transistor being coupled in parallel to the Zener diode or the avalanche diode of the transient voltage suppressor. When the current of the I / O terminal is relatively large, the MOS transistor is turned on to share part of the current of the I / O terminal through the Zener diode or the avalanche diode, thereby protecting the Zener diode or the avalanche diode from being damaged due to excessive current. Thus, the robustness of the transient voltage suppressor is improved without increasing the manufacture cost.

A method and apparatus for enabling more efficient use of plural packet data control channels (PDCCHs) that are associated with a common block of one or more packet data channels in a cellular communication system capable of high-speed data communications. Mobile stations (MSs) within a coverage area of a base station (BS) are categorized in accordance with an expected ability to receive signal transmissions, by determining position, transmission path length, reported channel quality, required reverse transmit power, or otherwise. The plural PDCCHs are preferentially associated with different categories of MSs, and are transmitted at different levels of robustness. The most robust PDCCH reaches all served MSs, and another PDCCH is transmitted at a lower robustness for more efficient utilization. Power may be reduced, and / or data density increased, on a less robust PDCCH.

Image recognition apparatus with a plurality of classifiers

In an apparatus, an applying unit applies selected classifiers in sequence to an object image. A score calculating unit calculates, each time a classifier is applied to the object image, a summation of an output of an at least one classifier already applied to the object image to thereby obtain an acquisition score as the summation. The output of the at least one already applied classifier is weighed by a corresponding weight. A distribution calculating unit calculates, each time a classifier is applied to the object image, a predicted distribution of the acquisition score that would be obtained if at least one unapplied classifier in the classifiers, which has not yet been applied to the object image, were applied to the object image. A judging unit judges, based on the predicted distribution, whether to terminate an application of the at least one unapplied classifier to the object image.

Controlling o-glycosylation in lower eukaryotes

InactiveUS20140302556A1Compromising cell robustnessCompromising protein yieldMicroorganismsImmunoglobulinsMutated proteinMannosyltransferase
Lower eukaryote host cells in which expression of the endogenous protein mannosyltransferase 2 (PMT2) gene has been disrupted by introducing a nucleic acid molecule encoding a Pmt2p protein having a mutation in a conserved region of the protein. The mutation confers to the host cell resistance to PMT inhibitors, which are used to reduce the amount of O-glycosylation of recombinant proteins produced by the host cells but which also have the effect of reducing the robustness of the host cells during fermentation. When host cells that express the mutated PMT2 gene but not the endogenous Pmt2p are cultivated in the presence of a P MT inhibitor, the host cells display an increase in cellular robustness during fed-batch fermentation and express recombinant pro teins in high yield while the amounts O-glycosylation are similar to that produced under similar conditions by host cells that express only the endogenous P MT2 gene.
