20130218478 | Method And System Of Identifying A Sample By Analysing A Mass Spectrum By The Use Of A Bayesian Inference Technique - A method of and apparatus for identifying and/or characterising a sample that may incorporate two or more isomeric or isobaric compounds such as hydroxylated metabolites. The method involves modelling an ensemble of possible structures for each of two or more known isomeric or isobaric compounds, calculating a theoretical collision cross-section for each modelled structure, averaging the calculated values for each known compound to provide a theoretical collision cross-section value for each known compound. A travelling wave ion mobility cell is used to measuring a collision cross-section value for the sample compound and the measured value is then compared with the theoretical values to identify which of the two or more known compounds the sample compound most closely resembles. | 08-22-2013 |

20120210750 | Localized heating techniques incorporating tunable infrared element(s) for vacuum insulating glass units, and/or apparatuses for same - Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to edge sealing techniques for vacuum insulating glass (VIG) units. More particularly, certain example embodiments relate to techniques for providing localized heating to edge seals of units, and/or unitized ovens for accomplishing the same. In certain example embodiments, infrared (IR) heating elements are controllable to emit IR radiation at a peak wavelength in the near infrared (NIR) and/or short wave infrared (SWIR) band(s), and the peak wavelength may be varied by adjusting the voltage applied to the IR heating elements. The peak wavelength may be selected so as to preferentially heat the frit material used to form a VIG edge seal while reducing the amount of heat provided to substrates of the VIG unit. In certain example embodiments, the substrates of the VIG unit do not reach a temperature of 325 degrees C. for more than 1 minute. | 08-23-2012 |

The mirror is located so as to redirect the laser beam onto the pump-out tube to thereby seal it. For instance, a substantially horizontal laser beam emitted from a laser source located outside the oven enters into the oven through one or more windows and is reflected by a mirror towards the pump-out tube to be sealed. The repositioning of the laser source advantageously can change its effective focal length and/or the location of the laser beam, e.g., because of the fixed location of the mirror. | 06-20-2013 |
