Journal ArticleDOI
Frequency response of solid-state impact ionization multipliers
Joshua L. Beutler,Carleton S. Clauss,Michael S. Johnson,Aaron R. Hawkins,M. D. Jack,George R. Chapman,Ken Kosai +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a study of the frequency response of solid-state impact ionization multipliers (SIMs) is presented that emphasizes the role of resistive and capacitive elements of the device to establish response limitations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical trapping assisted detection rate enhancement of single molecules on a nanopore optofluidic chip
M. Rahman,M. Harrington,M. A. Stott,Yucheng Li,Mohammad Julker Neyen Sampad,T. D. Yuzvinsky,Aaron R. Hawkins,Holger Schmidt +7 more
TL;DR: This work uses optical trapping to deliver molecular targets to the vicinity of a nanopore for high-throughput single molecule analysis on an optofluidic chip and increases DNA detection rates over 80× to enable detection at attomolar concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
RFID Threshold Accelerometer
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a shock sensor that combines a latching accelerometer with a radio frequency identification (RFID) chip, which changes states when threshold acceleration is met and can be relayed wirelessly to an electronic reader via the RFID chip.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation and measurement of image charge detection with printed-circuit-board detector and differential amplifier.
Jace Rozsa,Yixin Song,Devon Webb,Naomi Debaene,Austin Kerr,Elaura Gustafson,Tabitha Caldwell,Halle V. Murray,Daniel E. Austin,Shiuh-hua Wood Chiang,Aaron R. Hawkins +10 more
TL;DR: A novel and thorough simulation technique is presented to understand image charge generated from charged particles on a printed-circuit-board detector and a custom differential amplifier is described to exploit the near-differential input to improve the signal-to-noise-ratio of the measured image charge.
Patent
Multiplex fluorescent particle detection using spatially distributed excitation
Holger Schmidt,Aaron R. Hawkins +1 more
TL;DR: A chip-scale optical approach to performing multi-target detection is based on molecular biosensing using fiber-optic based fluorescence or light scattering detection in liquid-core waveguides.
