Reconfigurable beam reflectarray antenna for frequencies in the range of terahertz and millimeter waveThe reflectarray antenna consists of a flat array of phase-shifter cells (reflectarray) illuminated by a feeder, which produces an electronically reconfigurable collimated or shaped beam, where the cells (3b) consist of several stacked layers of conductive elements (4c, 4e, 4d, 4f) on a dielectric substrate (7c, 7d) alternated with layers of liquid crystal (5c, 5d) and a conductive plane (9). Applying bias voltages in the conducting elements, the dielectric constant of the liquid crystal varies producing a phase shift of the reflected field in each cell, allowing for a electronic beam scanning or reconfiguration. Including multiple layers of conductive elements and liquid crystal, improves the bandwidth and the performance of the beam scanning or reconfiguration. The antenna can be applied to observation satellites, communications and security systems.

Recycling of precious metals via an efficient process with no toxic byproductPlatinum group metals (PGM) are well-known precious metals that play an important role in many industrial applications as catalysts. Current methods for their recycling are not efficient, require extreme conditions, and involve toxic reagents or byproducts. Prof. Igor Lubomirsky and his team developed a method for efficient and environmentally benign recovery of precious materials that are currently discarded in large quantities from spent catalysts (automotive and industrial) from industrial processes (particularly in the electronic industry). The process is based on volatilization for selective extraction of precious and rare metals using benign metal salts rather than dangerous chlorine gas as a chlorinating agent. The new process requires relatively low temperatures and is free from hazardous waste, among its additional advantages over conventional methods. We believe that this efficient technology is key to increased reclaimed precious metals output, potentially reducing the demand for primary rare metals.

Regulatory compounds of synaptic transmission for the treatment of neurological diseasesThe CSIC and IRYCIS (Ramón y Cajal Institute for Health Research) have developed a group of compounds. These compounds have the ability to regulate the number of synapses that are formed between neurons, as well as the probability that neurotransmitters are released from these, because they have the capability of modulate the interactions that take place between the regulatory proteins NCS-1 and Ric8a that regulate these two independent processes. Due to these neuromodulatory properties, these compounds are useful for the treatment of neurological diseases as Alzheimer's disease, Huntington or Parkinson's diseases among others.

Removable system for continuous connection of square tube profilesThe removable system allows mounting on each profile separately, joining then in continuity with plates at the head of each of the flanges. The use of anti-buckling clamps prevents local buckling of the walls of the profiles, associated with tightening of flanges. Flanges have nerves to reduce stresses. The same flanges are valid for connecting different sized sections of square tube profiles.

Repair of Nerve Injuries by Schwann Cells Produced from Pluripotent Stem Cell LinesThere are many types of nerve injuries awaiting new advanced therapies. One example is entrapment neuropathy, a group of injuries caused mainly by compression of peripheral nerves, resulting in numbness, pain, sensory disturbance, and muscle weakness, which significantly impair patients’ daily lives. Carpal tunnel syndrome, the most common entrapment neuropathy, is reported with 1 - 5% incidence worldwide, but there is no treatment other than surgery, which is not effective in many cases. In addition, there are many traumas resulting in peripheral nerve rupture or spinal cord injury leading to irreversible limb loss or systemic dysfunction, respectively. There is no treatment for these nerve injuries except for surgery, which is often ineffective due to limited nerve regeneration. Cell therapies are under development, particularly for spinal cord injuries, with very limited success so far and/or in early phases. Schwann cells are a type of nerve system cells that play important roles in repair, regeneration, and growth of peripheral nerves. Although therapy using autologous Schwann cells for spinal cord injury has been reported, harvesting from one’s neural tissues poses challenges due to cell number limitation and damage to intact nerves. Thus, mass production of allogeneic Schwann cells is a better alternative, but it has been difficult to develop. SCAD is a spin-off from Kyoto University, which has successfully achieved the production of Schwann cells using pluripotent stem (PS) cells, including ES and iPS cell lines, and is now developing cell therapy for neuropathies and nerve injuries.

Reusable Gold Nanostars Substrates for Signal Amplification for DiagnosticsNumerous spectroscopic techniques utilize signal enhancement from surfaces of nanoparticles linked to analyte molecules. However, existing surface-enhanced spectroscopies (SES) are based on solution-based nanoparticles dispersion and are unsuitable for solid substrates. Dr. Shimanovich and her team (led by Dr. Solomonov) have developed a set of spiked gold nanostructures (also called “nanostars”, “nanoflowers”, “nanourchins”) embedded directly on solid-state substrates. These functionalized nanostar-substrates enable signal amplification in solid substrates and serve as highly sensitive transducers in various spectroscopies, including surface-enhanced Raman (SERS), surface-enhanced circular dichroism (SECD), localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), and surfaceenhanced fluorescence spectroscopy (SEFS) of molecules of biological, organic or inorganic origin.

Reversible Operation of Molecular Switches on Solid SurfacesMolecular photoswitches are light-responsive molecules with potential applications in a broad range of systems with on-demand functionalities. While molecular photoswitches have been extensively studied in solution, their immobilization to dry, planar surfaces generally renders them photochemically unresponsive. This invention presents a technique for modification of dry surfaces to render them amenable to molecular switch integration. Dry surfaces are coated with a transparent, nanoporous fiber network onto which molecular photoswitches are dispersed. Tested photoswitches demonstrated high-density loading, retained their activity, and proved stable over time. The proposed technique promises to expand the applicability of photoswitches in a broad array of functional materials including flexible substrates, as well as to enable dry surface integration of other molecular switches operating on signals other than light.
