20110143464 | Methods and Apparatus for Control of Hydrothermal Nanowire Synthesis - In exemplary implementations of this invention, hydrothermal synthesis of zinc oxide nanowires is morphologically controlled. Metal complex ions are used to suppress growth in a face-selective manner, by electrostatic crystal growth inhibition. This permits the aspect ratio (height/diameter) of the nanowires to be dynamically tuned over a wide range, from needle-like nanowires that are efficient field emitters to flattened nanowires with a platelet-like shape. The nanowire synthesis is all inorganic and occurs at low temperatures (e.g., <=60° C.). The growth inhibition may be predictively modeled, using speciation plots and treating non-zinc complex ions as ligands. Microfluidic channels may be used for the synthesis, with different solutions flowing down different channels, permitting nanowires with different properties to be synthesized in parallel. This invention may be used to produce field emission devices and nanowire-embedded AC electroluminescent devices, and for in-situ fabrication of spatially complex integrated devices in a polymeric microfluidic system. | 06-16-2011 |

20150101979 | STABILIZED NANOFIBERS, METHODS FOR PRODUCING, AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF - A surface treatment method is described herein where a stabilizing (e.g., crosslinking agent) is pre-mixed into a fluid stock comprising a processable polymer. The stock is processed to form products (e.g., nanofibers or films), followed by exposing the products to a stabilizing (e.g., crosslinking catalyst, such as acid vapors), which results in stabilization (e.g., polymer cross-linking on the surface of the product). In some embodiments, the morphology of the product is not changed upon crosslinking. Moreover in some instances, this method does not need strong acids and is performed with weak acids such as acetic acid which reduces environmental pollution. In addition to water soluble polymers (e.g., PVA), this method is applicable to proteins such as soy protein, and combinations of polymers and proteins in various embodiments. | 04-16-2015 |

20120159564 | APPLYING ACTIVITY ACTIONS TO FREQUENT ACTIVITIES - Activities of users of a service often involve one or more resources, such as uploading or downloading files in a file system of an FTP server. The activities of the users may be tracked and recorded in an activity log in order to identify frequently performed activities involving particular resources, and for such frequently performed activities, one or more activity actions may be performed. For example, malicious users may upload or utilize an equivalent set of assets stored in several accounts. The frequency of these undesirable activities may be identified, and an activity action may be automatically applied to the users (e.g., banning accounts), resources (e.g., deleting assets), and/or activities (e.g., blocking access to the resources). Conversely, desirable activities involving particular resources may be similarly detected, and the activity action applied to such desirable activities may involve reporting the desirable activity to an administrator of the service. | 06-21-2012 |
