| 20100154543 | Microsystem, More Particularly a Microgyrometer, With at Least Two Mechanically Coupled Oscillating Masses - The microsystem achieved in a flat substrate and comprises two oscillating masses connected to the substrate by suspension springs. The oscillating masses are coupled by a rigid coupling bar so as to produce an anti-phase movement of said oscillating masses when excitation of the latter is performed in a predefined excitation direction. The coupling bar is connected to intermediate zones of the corresponding suspension springs arranged on opposite sides of the oscillating masses. The intermediate zones are arranged between a first end of the suspension springs fixed to the corresponding oscillating mass, and a second end of the suspension springs fixed to the substrate by a corresponding anchoring point. | 06-24-2010 |

| 20110129757 | FUEL CELL WITH MEMBRANE/ELECTRODE STACK PERPENDICULAR TO THE SUPPORT SUBSTRATE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING - A fuel cell includes at least one stack the main elements whereof are perpendicular to a support substrate. This stack is provided with an electrolytic membrane situated between a first and second electrode. The first and second electrodes each include a catalytic layer in contact with the electrolytic membrane. Each electrode includes an electrically conductive porous diffusion layer, and each stack is inserted between electrically conductive first and second support partitions perpendicular to the support substrate and constituting current collectors of the stack. The support partitions are electrically insulated from one another. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110220470 | Electromechanical Actuator with Interdigitated Electrodes - A micromachined electromechanical (MEMS) actuator including, for example, an electrostatically actuated electrical switch, is provided, including a first set of conducting plates forming part of the movable element of the switch, interdigitated with a set of conducting plates forming part of the substrate. The plates are, in principle, vertical relative to the surface of the substrate; they are in partial heightwise overlap and a control voltage applied between the two sets of plates exerts a vertical force acting so as to move the movable element closer to the substrate. The conducting plates of the movable element are connected to one another by conducting end crosspieces connecting the ends of these plates so as to surround, laterally, the stationary conducting plates. The distance separating one stationary plate end from the mobile crosspiece is the same at both ends so that the forces exerted in the elongation direction of the plates cancel out. This distance is preferably the same for all the plates. | 09-15-2011 |

| 20110142324 | METHOD OF RECONSTITUTING CELLULAR SPECTRA USEFUL FOR DETECTING CELLULAR DISORDERS - Embodiments of the present disclosure provides improved methods for determining the presence of abnormalities in exfoliated cells. In one embodiment, the present disclosure provides methods for reconstructing cellular spectrum of a cell sample by creating a spectral map of the cellular sample, generating a binary mask of the spectral map, removing edge artifacts from each cell, and co-adding spectral data of each pixel corresponding to the cell to reconstruct the spectrum of each cell. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20110248166 | TUNABLE LASER-BASED INFRARED IMAGING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE THEREOF - Methods, devices, and systems for imaging tissue and other samples or samples using infrared (IR) transmissions from coherent transmission sources, such as a wide range, tunable, quantum cascade laser (QCL) designed for the rapid collection of infrared microscopic data for medical diagnostics across a wide range of discrete spectral increments. The infrared transmissions are transmitted through, reflected from, and/or transreflected through a sample, and then magnified and/or focused prior to being detected by a detector. After detection, the sample related image data is used to assess the sample. Such methods, devices, and systems may be used to detect abnormalities in tissue, for example, before such abnormalities can be diagnosed using art cytopathological methods. The methods, devices and systems may also optionally include a visible light detection subsystem and/or a motion control subsystem to assist in control and processing of imaging. | 10-13-2011 |
