20110303404Wear-Resistant Conformal Coating for Micro-Channel Structure - A conformal, multilayer micro-channel structure having a wear-resistant interior micro-channel surface coating of an ALD deposited conformal alumina (Al2O3) ceramic of about 1000 Å in thickness and a titanium nitride (TiN) of about 300 Å to about 1000 Å in thickness. The Al2O3/TiN multilayer structure is resistant to erosion and to electro-chemical corrosion as is found in prior art micro-channel coolers and structures.12-15-2011
20130206990Background Limited Focal Plane Array Assembly - The thermoelectric detector comprises an infrared absorber pixel structure supported by two electrically connected beams made of a thermoelectric material. One end of the thermoelectric beam connects to the infrared absorber pixel structure; the other end connects to the substrate. The detector comprises a microlens for collecting and focusing infrared radiation on the detector. Infrared radiation is incident on the infrared absorber pixel structure results in a temperature gradient along the length of the thermoelectric legs, and generating an electrical voltage proportional to the gradient. A low noise SIGe BiCMOS readout integrated circuit is coupled to the detector to provide a background limited detector having improved detectivity.08-15-2013
20140353774METHODS FOR STICTION REDUCTION IN MEMS SENSORS - A method of the invention includes reducing stiction of a MEMS device by providing a conductive path for electric charge collected on a bump stop formed on a substrate. The bump stop is formed by depositing and patterning a dielectric material on the substrate, and the conductive path is provided by a conductive layer deposited on the bump stop. The conductive layer can also be roughened to reduce stiction.12-04-2014

20080252310HYBRID PROBE FOR TESTING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES - A novel hybrid probe design is presented that comprises a torsion element and a bending element. These elements allow the probe to store the displacement energy as torsion or as bending. The novel hybrid probe comprises a probe base, a torsion element, a bending element, and a probe tip. The probe elastically deforms to absorb the displacement energy as the probe tip contacts the DUT contact pad. The bending element absorbs some of the displacement energy through bending. Because the torsion element and the bending element join at an angle, a portion of the displacement energy is transferred to the torsion element causing it to twist (torque). The torsion element can also bend to accommodate the storage of energy through torsion and bending. Also, adjusting the position of a pivot can be manipulated to alter the energy absorption characteristics of the probe. One or more additional angular elements may be added to change the energy absorption characteristics of the probe. And, the moment of inertia for the torsion and/or bending elements can by manipulated to achieve the desired probe characteristics.10-16-2008
20080252328PROBE FOR TESTING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES - A novel probe design is presented that increases a probe tolerance to stress fractures.

20160078597Method and System for Supplying Visually Encoded Image Data - A method for supplying visually encoded image data for displaying through a mobile end device includes supplying a datum. A device type of the end device is ascertained on the basis of a user identity which is assigned to a security element integrated into the end device. On the basis of the device type of the end device, the device properties of the end device are ascertained which influence a displaying of visually encoded image data on the end device. On the basis of the ascertained device properties, an image data representation information item is generated for generating visually encoded image data for the end device in device-specific fashion. Finally, the visually encoded image data are generated based on the image data representation information item in device-specific fashion for representing the datum on the end device.03-17-2016
