Abstract:
A system for depositing a composite polymer dielectric film on a substrate is disclosed, wherein the composite polymer dielectric film includes a low dielectric constant polymer layer disposed between a first silane-containing layer and a second silane-containing layer. The system includes a process module having a processing chamber and a monomer delivery system configured to admit a gas-phase monomer into the processing chamber for deposition of the low dielectric constant polymer layer, a post-treatment module for annealing the composite polymer dielectric film, and a silane delivery system configured to admit a vapor flow containing a silane precursor into at least one of the process module and the post-treatment module for the formation of the first silane-containing layer and the silane-containing layer.

Abstract:
Cobalt thin films were prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The precursor cobalt(II) acetylacetonate [Co(C5H7O2)2] was used to selectively deposit films onto iridium substrates using hydrogen reduction. Cobalt growth was observed on SiO2, silicon, fluorinated silica glass (FSG), and tantalum when silane was used as a reducing agent.

Abstract:
A process for producing petroleum from subterranean formations is disclosed wherein production from the formation is obtained by driving a fluid from an injection well to a production well. The process involves injecting into the formation via the injection well asphaltenes as sacrificial agents to inhibit the deposition of chemical recovery agents such as surfactant on the reservoir matrix. Normally the process would be carried out by first injecting the asphaltenes into the formation through the injection well and following them with a chemical recovery agent. The chemical recovery agent would then be followed by a drive fluid such as water to push the materials to the production well.
Abstract:
A wireless communication system includes a processor that receives a downlink control information (DCI) associated with a transmission channel used for transmitting a RF signal and a control channel element index associated with the DCI. The processor determines a scrambling code based on the control channel element index for the DCI, scrambles the DCI using the scrambling code, generates a scrambled DCI, and modulates the scrambled. DCI to generate a modulated symbol. The processor uses look-up tables to determine a resource element group (REG) based on the control channel element index, map the modulated symbol to the REG, and generate a transmission frame.
Abstract:
A user friendly, safe and efficient continuous flow irrigation endoscope having only a single housing sheath without an inner sheath. The exclusion of the inner sheath increases the effective lumen of the endoscope. A long hollow cylindrical tube, capable of performing a to and fro and rotary motion, is placed inside the housing sheath to function as an endoscopic instrument, but also to serve as a conduit for evacuating waste fluid and detached tissue pieces present inside a tissue cavity. A single inflow port located at the proximal end of the single housing sheath allows the irrigation fluid to enter the tissue cavity via the lumen of the said housing sheath. The invented endoscope system has a single inflow port, a single outflow port, without an inner sheath so that all waste fluid and tissue debris present inside cavity are evacuated via the same single outflow port. No type of feedback mechanism, such as mechanical or electrical feedback mechanism, is incorporated in the endoscope to facilitate the removal of detached tissue pieces or waste fluid.

Abstract:
A continuous flow irrigation endoscope and a continuous flow irrigation fluid management system, both designed to be compatible to each other and to function as a single system. The endoscope and the fluid management system are synergistic to each other such that both enhance the efficiency of each other. The invented system allows a body tissue cavity to be distended by continuous flow irrigation so that detached tissue pieces and waste fluid present inside a body tissue cavity are continuously automatically evacuated from the tissue cavity without causing the cavity to collapse at any stage and without the need of withdrawing the endoscope of a part of the endoscope from the tissue cavity. No type of feedback mechanism, such as mechanical or electrical, or valve or valve like systems, are incorporated in the endoscope to influence or facilitate the removal of detached tissue pieces or waste fluid in any manner.
