Systems and methods for management of a distributed ledger including prescription information are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a processor and a logical data structure to configure a device according to an electronic prescription defining an action for a patient, the electronic prescription organized as record(s) in a distributed ledger and processible by the device to apply the action to the patient. The electronic prescription is to cause the device to at least: configure the device to apply the action to the patient; validate the action for the patient using the distributed ledger; and propagate a record of the action to the distributed ledger.

A circuit includes a flexible circuit having an optical waveguide embedded therein, a first device attached to the flexible circuit and configured to convert a first electrical signal to an optical signal, the first device positioned to emit the optical signal to an input end of the optical waveguide, and a second device attached to the flexible circuit and configured to convert the optical signal into a second electrical signal, the second device positioned to receive the optical signal from an output end of the optical waveguide.

Optical link circuit and method of making same

In one aspect of the present invention, a method is provided. The method includes disposing a substantially amorphous cadmium tin oxide layer on a support; and thermally processing the substantially amorphous cadmium tin oxide layer in an atmosphere substantially free of cadmium from an external source to form a transparent layer, wherein the transparent layer has an electrical resistivity less than about 2&#xd7;10Ohm-cm. Method of making a photovoltaic device is also provided.

A stand-off sensor assembly is provided. The sensor assembly includes a plurality of electron state definers for generating resonant tunneling current in response to the electric field, wherein the electron state definers include at least one variable characteristic such that a change in the variable characteristic affects the tunneling current, and a monitor for monitoring a change in the tunneling current exiting an electron state definer based on a change in the variable characteristic of the tunneling device.

Devices and methods for electric field sensing

An optical pressure sensor interrogation system is provided. The system includes a light source for providing an optical signal to an optical pressure sensor and an optical coupler for receiving a reflected signal from the optical pressure sensor. The optical coupler splits the reflected signal and provides a first portion of the reflected signal to a first optical detector. The system further includes a filter for receiving a second portion of the reflected signal and providing a filtered signal to a second optical detector and a processing circuitry configured to obtain pressure based on a division or a subtraction of light intensities of the first and the second optical detector output signals. The processing circuitry is further configured to provide a feedback signal to the light source to control a wavelength of the optical signal.

Self-calibrated interrogation system for optical sensors

A high-temperature pressure sensor is provided. The sensor includes a quartz substrate with a cavity etched on one side. A reflective coating is deposited on at least a portion of the cavity. The sensor further includes a ferrule section coupled to the quartz substrate with the cavity therebetween. The cavity exists in a vacuum, and cavity gap is formed between the reflective metal coating and a surface of the ferrule. The sensor also includes an optical fiber enclosed by the ferrule section and extending from the cavity gap to an opposing end of the ferrule section and a metal casing surrounding the ferrule section and the quartz substrate with an opening for said optical fiber extending therefrom. The pressure applied to the quartz substrate changes the dimensions of the cavity gap and a reflected signal from the reflective coating is processed as a pressure.
