Abstract: A flow channel suitable for use with a peristaltic pump comprises: an upper wall having a bowed upward shape; a lower wall having one of a bowed downward shape and a flat shape; and one or more spacers between the upper wall and the lower wall disposed between lateral edges of the upper and lower walls, each spacer having a height. The upper wall, lower wall, and the one or more spacers define a lumen. When the upper wall is compressed toward the lower wall by compressing members, the one or more spacers limit vertical movement of the compressing members such that the lumen is maintained in an under-occluded condition. In some cases, the bowing of one of the upper and lower walls has a recurved shape.

Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to methods and apparatuses for generating ice. In one embodiment, a material is introduced to water, and the temperature of the combination of the water and the material is lowered until ice forms, the formed ice having a higher albedo than it would have had if the step of lowering the temperature had been carried out on the water without first carrying out the step of introducing the material. In one embodiment, the material is selected such that an aqueous solution of the material is alkaline. In another embodiment, a material is introduced to water, and the temperature of the combination of the water and the material is lowered until ice forms, the ice forming at a faster rate than the rate at which it would have formed if the material had not been introduced to the water.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a suspended structure including a layer of membrane material over a substrate. The suspended structure overlies a cavity in the substrate. The method starts by generating a sacrificial layer comprising a first material that can withstand temperatures typically encountered in subsequent conventional semiconductor processing steps. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bond between sacrificial layer and the underlying substrate must be capable of withstanding temperatures greater than the Si—Al eutectic point. A layer of membrane material is then deposited over the sacrificial layer. The membrane material comprises a second material different from the first material. An opening is introduced in the layer of membrane material thereby exposing the sacrificial layer. A first etchant is applied to the sacrificial layer through the opening until the sacrificial layer is removed leaving a portion of the cavity. The first etchant is chosen such that the first etchant removes the first material more rapidly than the second material. Finally, a second etchant is introduced into the cavity to expand the cavity. The second etchant is chosen such that the second etchant removes the substrate more rapidly than the second material. The first material is preferably PSG, thermal silicon dioxide, low temperature oxide, or tungsten.
