    摘要: Non-volatile field effect devices and circuits using same. A non-volatile field effect device includes a source, drain and gate with a field-modulatable channel between the source and drain. Each of the source, drain, and gate have a corresponding terminal. An electromechanically-deflectable, nanotube switching element is electrically positioned between one of the source, drain and gate and its corresponding terminal. The others of the source, drain and gate are directly connected to their corresponding terminals. The nanotube switching element is electromechanically-deflectable in response to electrical stimulation at two control terminals to create one of a non-volatile open and non-volatile closed electrical communication state between the one of the source, drain and gate and its corresponding terminal.

    摘要: A MEMS device comprising a flexible membrane that is free to move in response to pressure differences generated by sound waves. A first electrode mechanically coupled to the flexible membrane, and together form a first capacitive plate. A second electrode mechanically coupled to a generally rigid structural layer or back-plate, which together form a second capacitive plate. A back-volume is provided below the membrane. A first cavity located directly below the membrane. Interposed between the first and second electrodes is a second cavity. A plurality of bleed holes connect the first cavity and the second cavity. Acoustic holes are arranged in the back-plate so as to allow free movement of air molecules, such that the sound waves can enter the second cavity. The first and second cavities in association with the back-volume allow the membrane to move in response to the sound waves entering via the acoustic holes in the back-plate.
