Abstract:
A method and apparatus for processing metal bearing gases involves generating a toroidal plasma in a plasma chamber. A metal bearing gas is introduced into the plasma chamber to react with the toroidal plasma. The interaction between the toroidal plasma and the metal bearing gas produces at least one of a metallic material, a metal oxide material or a metal nitride material.

An inflatable enclosure system comprises a plurality of modular inflatable wall structures, at least one entrance module, and fans connected to the inflatable wall structure of the inflatable enclosure.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for the synthesis of compounds of Formula I by sequentially aminating, first with a primary amine and then with a secondary amine, an intermediate compound of the structure of Formula E1, wherein R1 is a linear, branched, or cyclic alkyloxy functional group of the structure (—R2a—OH), R2a is a linear, branched or cyclic alkyl group, R2 is a linear, branched or cyclic alkyl group, and R3 is an alkylene-heterocycle, said process comprising forming intermediate compound of Formula E1 by reacting, in a refluxing reaction solvent selected from alcohols having 5 or less carbon atoms and mixtures of two or more thereof, a methanol solution of a salt of a 4-alkyl-3-amino-pyrazole compound of Formula C1, with a diamidization reagent selected from dimethylmalonate, monomethylmalonyl-chloride, and malonyl dichloride in the presence of a Lewis base having sufficient proton affinity to abstract a proton from the 1-position nitrogen on the pyrazole ring.
Abstract:
A system and method for selectively setting an optical navigation resolution utilizes a comparison of a comparison displacement value to a threshold value to set the optical navigation resolution to an effective resolution selected from a plurality of effective resolutions. The comparison displacement value is based on at least one of a first displacement value in a first direction and a second displacement value in a second direction, which were derived for estimating motion.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a multi-modular maze device comprising a plurality of maze modules interconnected using a plurality of adaptors to configure a plurality of interconnected pathways. The maze modules and the adaptors are removably engaged to each other using hook and loop fastening arrangements. The maze device is capable of being removably installed on a supporting surface (for example, floor), either outdoor or indoor.
Abstract:
A particle trap for a remote plasma source includes a body structure having an inlet for coupling to a chamber of a remote plasma source and an outlet for coupling to a process chamber inlet. The particle trap for a remote plasma source also includes a gas channel formed in the body structure and in fluid communication with the body structure inlet and the body structure outlet. The gas channel can define a path through the body structure that causes particles in a gas passing from a first portion of the channel to strike a wall that defines a second portion of the gas channel at an angle relative to a surface of the wall. A coolant member can be in thermal communication with the gas channel.
