| Application No. | Application Title | Issue Date |
| 20100059122 | Controlling Fluid Through an Array Of Fluid Flow Paths A method of controlling fluid through a layer of a soft compressible (e.g., gel) material including an array of fluid flow paths. The fluid flow paths are normally open, allowing fluid flow. An electric field is applied in regions where fluid flow is undesirable. The el... | 03/11/2010 |
| 20080153016 | Method of forming a reconfigurable relief surface using microvalves A structure and method of using a reusable master printing plate is described. In one embodiment, the method uses an electric field to control a series of microvalves. The microvalves control a fluid flow that raises or lowers selected regions on a flexible printing sur... | 06/26/2008 |
| 20080149183 | Novel microvalve An improved microvalve is described. The microvalve is formed such that the walls of the microvalve are formed from a gel material. Typically, the microvalve includes open flow paths, often holes, through a gel layer. An electric field is applied in regions where fluid ... | 06/26/2008 |
| 20070158016 | Replaceable Parylene Membranes For Nanocalorimeter A measurement operation, such as a calorimetry measurement, is performed using a measurement array and a replaceable passivation membrane (e.g., a parylene membrane). The passivation membrane is used to cover the measurement array to provide temporary electrical and che... | 07/12/2007 |
