20090097031MICRO-CAVITY GAS AND VAPOR SENSORS AND DETECTION METHODS - Micro-cavity gas or vapor sensors and gas or vapor detection methods. Optical energy is introduced into a resonant micro-cavity having a deformable coating such as a polymer. The coating swells or expands when it is exposed to or absorbs a gas or vapor, thereby changing the resonant wavelength of optical energy circulating within the micro-cavity/coating. Expansion or swelling of the coating may be reversible such that it contracts when gas or vapor diffuses from the coating. The coating deformation and/or a change of one or more optical properties of the optical energy circulating within the micro-cavity are used to detect the presence of the gas or vapor or molecules or particulates thereof.04-16-2009
20090214755CLICK CHEMISTRY SURFACE FUNCTIONALIZATION FOR RESONANT MICRO-CAVITY SENSORS - Micro-cavity resonant sensors have outer surfaces that are functionalized using click chemistry, e.g., involving a cycloaddition reaction of an alkyne functional group and an azide functional group. A first polymer linking element binds to an outer surface of the micro-cavity and has an azide functional group, which bonds to an alkyne functional group of a second polymer linking element as a result of a cycloaddition reaction. A functionalization element such as an antibody, antigen or protein for sensing a target molecule is bound to the second linking element.08-27-2009

20100027943EXPANDED BEAM FIBER OPTIC CONNECTION SYSTEM - An expanded beam fiber optic connection system is disclosed which overcomes the problems associated with known expanded beam fiber optic connection systems. In particular, the expanded beam fiber optic connection system in accordance with the present invention includes a pair of mating fiber optic connectors. Each fiber optic connector includes a connector body and fiber optic termini. In accordance with an important aspect of the invention, the fiber optic termini utilize expanded beam technology and are configured with virtually the same form factor as existing physical contact fiber optic termini. The configuration of the expanded beam termini provides several benefits. First, existing physical contact fiber optic connection systems can be updated in the field by simply replacing the existing physical contact fiber optic termini with the new expanded beam fiber optic termini in accordance with the present invention and re-using the existing connector body, thus significantly reducing cost of upgrading existing physical contact type fiber optic connection systems. Secondly, since the same connector bodies are used for both the physical contact termini and the expanded beam termini, the number of components for the two types of fiber optic connection systems is reduced, thus reducing manufacturing costs.02-04-2010

20110001322SELF-CHARGING ELECTRICAL CAR - An energy recovery system for a vehicle comprises an arm mounted between a chassis of a vehicle and an axle of the vehicle. The arm is configured to pivot with respect to the chassis and the axle when the chassis is vertically displaced with respect to the axle. A one-way ratchet assembly couples the arm to an output shaft and is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position. A torsion spring is coupled to the output shaft such that when the output shaft is rotated in a first direction, the torsion spring is tightened. An electromechanical assembly is configured to move the ratchet assembly from the engaged position to the disengaged position when the torsion spring reaches a pre-determined tightness, so that when the ratchet assembly is in the disengaged position, the torsion spring loosens and induces rotation of the output shaft in the second direction. A generator is coupled to the output shaft.01-06-2011
