Publication number: US20220089910A1
Application number: 17/543,642

Abstract:
A composition is provided that comprises a calcium carbonate slurry. The calcium carbonate slurry comprises a plurality of calcium carbonate particles suspended in a solution, where the solution comprises a dispersant and an anionic surfactant. The concentration of the calcium carbonate particles in the calcium carbonate slurry is equal to or less than about 2.0 wt. %.

Publication number: US20220088834A1
Application number: 17/541,089

Abstract:
An imprinting apparatus includes a silicon master having a plurality of nanofeatures defined therein. An anti-stick layer coats the silicon master, the anti-stick layer including a molecule having a cyclosiloxane with at least one silane functional group. A method includes forming a master template by: depositing a formulation on a silicon master including a plurality of nanofeatures defined therein, the formulation including a solvent and a molecule having a cyclosiloxane with at least one silane functional group; and curing the formulation, thereby forming an anti-stick layer on the silicon master, the anti-stick layer including the molecule. The method further includes depositing a silicon-based working stamp material on the anti-stick layer of the master template; curing the silicon-based working stamp material to form a working stamp including a negative replica of the plurality of nanofeatures; and releasing the working stamp from the master template.

Publication number: US20220067418A1
Application number: 17/522,864

Abstract:
The technology disclosed relates to equalizer-based intensity correction for base calling. In particular, the technology disclosed relates to accessing an image whose pixels depict intensity emissions from a target cluster and intensity emissions from additional adjacent clusters, selecting a lookup table that contains pixel coefficients that are configured to increase a signal-to-noise ratio, applying the pixel coefficients to intensity values of the pixels in the image to produce an output, and base calling the target cluster based on the output.
