In photoinitiated cationic ring-opening polymerization, the polymerizable substrate is subjected to irradiation with light for a brief period during which the photopolymerization must proceed essentially to completion. Consequently, only monomers that undergo very high rates of polymerization may be employed. Certain epoxide monomers display high reactivity in photoinitiated…
Data communication over wireless channels has become increasingly common, but wireless channels may be lossy such that data is often lost during transmission. This invention is directed to devices and methods for transmitting or receiving data packets in a data block in a communication network with a transport protocol. A loss toleranct TCP protocol is used in which a maximum…
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) utilizes electrodes placed on the surface of a body to determine the complex conductivity distribution within the body. When using a voltage source in EIT, it is necessary to know both the applied voltage and the resulting current with high precision, which cannot be achieved with current systems. This invention is directed to a voltage…
For many decades, dry processing techniques, such as physical vapor deposition (PVD), have played a dominant role in integrated circuit metallization processes. During microelectronic device fabrication, films are often deposited on non-planar surfaces. The surface topography that wafers exhibit at various steps in the fabrication process arise from patterned features related…
Silicon Carbide (SiC) has long been recognized as the choice for high voltage, high temperature, and high power applications. To achieve optimum design in SiC power devices, a varying charge in the lateral direction should be introduced. To f orm a junction termination extension (JTE) in SiC, different implant doses into multiple spaced zones can be used to create a non-…
This invention is directed to a method and apparatus for growing a multi-component single crystal boules that provides high quality and growth rate by growing the crystal from a multi-component melt, such as a ternary, quaternary or higher order melt. In the past, only binary compounds such as GaAs) could be commercially produced by directional solidification from melts, while…
This invention is directed to a high-throughput process for screening proteins for kinetic stability.Kinetically stable proteins are trapped in one conformation and have a high barrier to unfolding, so they are resistant to aggregation and degradation and have a longer half-life.The ability to quickly and easily identify kinetically stable proteins would have a myriad of…
There are two basic classes of adhesives in widespread current use. The first class is pressure sensitive adhesives, such as are employed in adhesive tapes. The second class is reactive adhesives, used primarily for structural purposes. A long-standing problem with these types of adhesives is that they are unable of obtaining both a long working life and a rapid cure time.…
Interest and research activity in the photoinitiated cationic crosslinking polymerizations of multifunctional epoxide and oxetanes monomers have increased rapidly as this technology has found broad use in many industrial applications. However, while the synthesis of current epoxy-functional siloxanes yields monomers that undergo efficient cationic ring-opening…
While there have been rapid advances in microscale device fabrication, microfluidics, and lab-on-a-chip technology, there is still a need to immobilize biomolecules (especially proteins) on a microfluidics apparatus, while maintaining high biological activity and electroosmotic flow (EOF) capability. This invention relates to the discovery that certain polymers containing both…
