Abstract:
A mono-diameter wellbore casing. The mono-diameter wellbore casing is formed by plastically deforming and radially expanding a first tubular member within a wellbore. A second tubular member is then plastically deformed and radially expanded in overlapping relation to the first tubular member. The second tubular member and the overlapping portion of the first tubular member are then radially expanded again.

Abstract:
A method and system is described wherein an information signals is gated at a frequency that is a sub-harmonic of the frequency of the desired output signal. In the modulation embodiments, the information signal is modulated as part of the up-conversion process. In a first modulation embodiment, one information signal is phase modulated onto the carrier signal as part of the up-conversion process. In a second modulation embodiment, two information signals are multiplied, and, as part of the up-conversion process, one signal is phase modulated onto the carrier and the other signal is amplitude modulated onto the carrier. In a third modulation embodiment, one information signal is phase modulated onto the “I” phase of the carrier signal as part of the up-conversion process and a second information signal is phase modulated onto the “Q” phase of the carrier as part of the up-conversion process. In a fourth modulation embodiment, four information signals are phase and amplitude modulated onto the “I” and “Q” phases of the carrier as part of the up-conversion process. There are at least two implementations of each of the aforementioned embodiments.
Abstract:
Resist developers can attack some advanced dielectric materials such as silsesquioxane materials which can be used as an insulator between a surface of an integrated circuit chip and wiring layers formed on the surface of the dielectric material. By performing a resist stripping or etching process in which a reactant material is supplied externally or liberated from the dielectric material, an extremely thin surface protective covering of an intermediate material may be formed which is impervious to resist developers or any of a plurality of other materials which may damage the flowable oxide material. A dual Damascene process for forming robust connections and vias to the chip can thus be made compatible with advanced dielectrics having particularly low dielectric constants to minimize conductor capacitance and support fast signal propagation and noise immunity even where conductors are closely spaced to each other.

Abstract:
An apparatus for the concentration of suspended algae particles in an aqueous solution. The apparatus includes an electrolytic cell containing at least an anode and a cathode, and a filter. The electrolytic cell receives a solution containing suspended algae particles therein. A power supply is near the filter. A zone of depleted suspended algae particles is near the filter, formed under the influence of an applied electric field from the power supply.
