Abstract:
Processes for forming an electronic device include forming a first radiation region, a second radiation region spaced apart from the first radiation region, and an insulating region. The insulating region can have a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The first radiation region can lie immediately adjacent to the first side, and the second radiation region can lie immediately adjacent to the second side. Within the insulating region, no other radiation region may lie between the first and second radiation regions, and the insulating region can include an insulating layer that includes a plurality of openings. A process for forming the electronic device can include patterning an insulating layer.

A method of fabricating metal oxide TFTs on transparent substrates includes the steps of positioning an opaque gate metal area on the front surface of the substrate, depositing transparent gate dielectric and transparent metal oxide semiconductor layers overlying the gate metal and a surrounding area, depositing transparent passivation material on the semiconductor material, depositing photoresist on the passivation material, exposing and developing the photoresist to remove exposed portions, etching the passivation material to leave a passivation area defining a channel area, depositing transparent conductive material over the passivation area, depositing photoresist over the conductive material, exposing and developing the photoresist to remove unexposed portions, and etching the conductive material to leave source and drain areas on opposed sides of the channel area.

Abstract:
A method and system for determining analyzing an inventory purchasing opportunity with respect to inventory health. A method may include receiving an offer to purchase units of an inventory item via a purchasing channel for a purchase price per unit; determining a rate of sales demand of the item; and determining a breakeven holding time of existing units of the item, where a cost of holding a unit until the breakeven holding time equals, within an equality threshold, a difference between a sales channel value and the offer purchase price. The method may additionally include determining a healthy inventory level of the item that exceeds a target inventory level by a function of the sales demand rate and the breakeven holding time, and, if a current inventory level of the item exceeds the healthy level, declining to purchase units of said inventory item for the purchase price.
Abstract:
An organic electronic device includes electronic components within an array. In one embodiment, the organic electronic device includes a substrate and a first conductive member overlying the substrate and lying at least partly within the array. The first conductive member is at least part of a first power transmission line. The organic electronic device further includes a second conductive member overlying the substrate and lying at least partly within the array. The second conductive member is at least part of a first electrode and is electrically connected to the first conductive member. In another embodiment, an organic active layer has at least a portion lying between the first and second conductive members. In yet another embodiment, a process for using an organic electronic device including an array of radiation-emitting components allows radiation to be emitted from the array at an intensity of at least 1100 cd/m2.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method of producing polypeptides, including insulinotropic GLP-1 (7-36) polypeptide and/or GLP-1 analogs, by ligating genes in a tandem way. Also disclosed are the recombinant polypeptides produced by such a method. Using the method of this invention, 1 to 32 copies of GLP-1 (7-36) and/or GLP-1 analog genes may be expressed in tandem and the desired polypeptide can be obtained after cleavage of a fusion protein and further processes of separation and purification thus making possible the production of recombinant polypeptides, including recombinant GLP-1 (7-36) and/or GLP-1 analogs on a large scale, at a significantly reduced production cost.
Abstract:
A method and system for determining inventory health with respect to a disposition channel. A method may include specifying a target inventory level of an inventory item; determining a rate of sales demand of the item; and determining a breakeven holding time of units of the item in excess of the target level, where a cost of holding a unit until the breakeven holding time equals, within an equality threshold, a difference between a sales channel value and a disposition channel value for the item. The method may additionally include determining a healthy inventory level of the item that exceeds the target inventory level by the product of the sales demand rate and the breakeven holding time, and, if a current inventory level of the item exceeds the healthy level, disposing of excess units of the item via the disposition channel.
Abstract:
An optical resonator is provided, and methods for making the same, as well as devices and sub-assemblies including the same. For example, such an electronic device (FIG. 4) may include a first electronic component (172) designed to be photoactive to radiation having a first wavelength and a second electronic component (174) designed to be photoactive to radiation having a second wavelength. The device may also include a cavity that defines an optical resonator having a cavity length such that the optical resonator resonates in successive resonant modes that locate at the first and second wavelengths.
