20120027946 | DIRECT DEPOSIT AND REMOVAL OF NANOSCALE CONDUCTORS - A method and apparatus for depositing and removing nanoscale conductors. A magneto-optical trap ion source (MOTIS) creates a beam of focused metal ions that either deposit directly at low energy (<0.5 keV) or sputter material away at high energy (>2 keV). By scanning the beam, layers of material may be built up into a desired pattern. By employing a MOTIS as the source of ions for the beam, and then directing that beam through an appropriate ion-optical column, isotopically pure samples may be deposited into patterns with nanoscale feature sizes. The ability to quickly remove material, and deposit isotopically pure metals is desirable, for instance, during the circuit edit stage of integrated circuit manufacture. | 02-02-2012 |
20120145919 | CHARGED PARTICLE SOURCE FROM A PHOTOIONIZED COLD ATOM BEAM - A system for producing a charged particle beam from a photoionized cold atom beam. A vapor of neutral atoms is generated. From these atoms, an atom beam having axial and transverse velocity distributions controlled by the application of laser light is produced. The produced atom beam is spatially compressed along each transverse axis, thus reducing the cross-sectional area of the produced beam and reducing a velocity spread of the produced beam along directions transverse to the beam's direction of propagation. Laser light is directed onto at least a portion of the neutral atoms in the atom beam, thereby producing ions and electrons. An electric field is generated at the location of the produced ions and electrons, thereby producing a beam of ions traveling in a first direction and electrons traveling in substantially the opposite direction. A vacuum chamber contains the atom beam, the ion beam and the electron beam. | 06-14-2012 |

20120092112 | TOROID WITH CHANNELS AND CIRCUIT ELEMENT AND MODULAR JACK WITH SAME - A circuit element is provided for mounting in an electrical connector. The circuit element includes a one-piece toroidal core made of a sintered, ferrite material. The core has a central bore therein defining an inner surface, an outer surface and oppositely facing top and bottom surfaces, and a plurality of equally spaced apart longitudinal channels formed in one of the top, bottom, inner and outer surfaces. A plurality of wires are twisted together in a uniform, repeating pattern to define a group of twisted wires. The group of twisted wires extends through the central bore and is wrapped around the core to define a plurality of uniformly spaced longitudinal turns with a portion of each turn being positioned in one of the channels. | 04-19-2012 |
20130102203 | MODULAR JACK WITH ENHANCED PORT ISOLATION - An electrical connector includes a dielectric housing with a plurality of filtering modules therein. Each filtering module has a housing and a magnetics assembly including transformer cores with wires wrapped therearound. An array of pins extend from the module housing for connection to the wires. A plurality of tails extend from the module housing for interconnection to a circuit board upon which the connector may be mounted. An interconnection is provided between the pins and tails that may include filtering or other signal modifying circuitry. | 04-25-2013 |
