Abstract
A method and apparatus for generating high-order harmonics in a solid-state medium comprising integrated semiconductor devices and electronics. The high-order harmonics interact with and are modified by the internal electric field associated with the operation of the integrated semiconductor devices and electronics. Measurement of the high-order harmonics after modification by the internal electric fields amounts to high resolution (temporal and spatial) dynamic imaging of the internal electric fields associated with the integrated semiconductor devices and electronics.

Abstract
A method and apparatus is disclosed for generating tunable attosecond-scale radiation pulses, with a frequency in range of ultraviolet to soft-X-ray, from a solid-state medium. The invention utilizes an intense laser pulse to drive a high harmonic generation (HHG) process in a solid state medium and a weak secondary field to control the HHG process. The weak secondary field has a frequency equal to the second harmonic of the intense laser pulse. The spatial, temporal and spectral properties of the HHG process and the emitted harmonic beam are tuned by adjusting the relative delay between the two fields and the intensity of the weak secondary field.

Patent number: 9,162,991
Country: United States
Abstract
The inventors have discovered a series of novel trans-cinnamoyl derivatives that are potent inhibitors of guinea pig liver transglutaminase (TGase). The inhibitors can be sorted into two subclasses: substituted cinnamoylbenzotriazolyl amides and 3-(substituted cinnamoyl)pyridines, also known as azachalcones. Both subclasses displayed reversible inhibition of TGase and were competitive with acyl donor TGase substrates at IC₅₀ values of less than 20 μM. Furthermore, the inventors developed a Huisgen [3+2] cycloaddition to form novel 4-cinnamoyl-triazole analogues of the present invention.

Abstract
Apparatus and techniques are presented such as can be used for electro-optic modulation and detection or other applications. For example, an optical metal grating is disposed on a thin metal film to couple light from broadside to the metal film as surface plasmon-polariton waves; below the metal film is located a thin insulating layer and a doped semiconductor region forming a metal-insulator- semiconductor structure. The device can be configured to operate as a reflection or transmission modulator, or as a photodetector, for example. Modulating the voltage applied to the metal-insulator-semiconductor structure modulates the carrier concentration in the semiconductor near the insulating layer, which modulates the refractive index of the semiconductor in this region, thus modulating the coupling efficiency to the surface plasmon-polaritons, thus modulating the reflectance and transmittance of the device. Modulated incident light produces a modulated photocurrent under bias which may be detected using electronics.

Abstract
Methods of detecting an aldehyde-containing compound in a subject or in a sample from a subject are described herein, comprising administering an aldehyde-binding compound of Formula I to the subject, or combining such a compound with the sample; and detecting the product of the compound of Formula I and the aldehyde-containing compound. Detection of the product may involve imaging, such as MRI, CEST-MRI or positron emission tomography (PET) imaging; or may involve fluorescence or an electrochemical detection method. Biologically relevant aldehydes detected according to the described method can be used to monitor conditions such as brain injury, neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.
