摘要:
A chemical vapor deposition method for forming an aluminum-silicon nitride layer upon a substrate uses an aluminum precursor, a silicon precursor and a nitrogen precursor under chemical vapor deposition conditions to deposit the aluminum-silicon nitride layer upon the substrate. The aluminum-silicon nitride layer has an index of refraction interposed between silicon nitride and aluminum nitride. The aluminum-silicon nitride layer also has a bandgap from about 4.5 to about 6 eV and a permittivity from about 6×10̂-11 to about 8×10̂-11 F/m. The aluminum-silicon nitride layer may be further thermally annealed to reduce a hydrogen content of the aluminum-silicon nitride layer.

A method for fabricating a semiconductor structure includes forming a semiconductor layer over a substrate and forming an aluminum-silicon nitride layer upon the semiconductor layer. When the semiconductor layer in particular comprises a III-V semiconductor material such as a group III nitride semiconductor material or a gallium nitride semiconductor material, the aluminum-silicon nitride material provides a superior passivation in comparison with a silicon nitride material.

A system and method for creating a buffer solution having a desired pH value is disclosed. The method uses two known buffer solutions, each with predetermined pH values, and determines a mathematical relationship which defines the amount of each known buffer solution needed to create the buffer solution with the desired pH. This method can then be used to create one or more denaturation graphs, which demonstrate the stability of a protein at a given pH level.

A system for automatically creating a denaturation curve is disclosed. In accordance with certain embodiments, a movement system including a unit having a plurality of cannulas is used. The cannulas are in fluid communication with a fluid system, which allows the cannulas to draw in and dispense fluid. A measurement system is included which draws fluid from a well into a detector to determine a characteristic of the fluid. A controller is used to control these systems and also to create a denaturation graph from the measured characteristics. In another embodiment, a plurality of formulations may be created using the system.

A system and method of use is provided for using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to determine the corrosion rates of coupled metals. Two dissimilar metals are coupled together and exposed to a saltwater electrolyte in an electrochemical cell. A variable frequency current is passed through the cell and collected at the coupled metals. The impedance and phase angle of the collected current data are plotted verses frequency. The plotted data are compared to and analogized to a known plot for physical electric circuits. When a matching plot and circuit are found, the corrosion rate data associated with the matched plot are used to determine the corrosion rates of the coupled metals.

A separation apparatus and method are employed using a separation channel for rotation about an axis. Such channel includes radially spaced apart inner and outer side wall portions and an end wall portion. An inlet conveys fluid into the channel. A barrier is located in the channel intermediate of the inner and outer side wall portions. A first flow path communicates between upstream and downstream sides of the barrier. A collection region may be located downstream of the barrier for communication with the first flow path. An outer side wall section of the channel may be positioned radially outward of an upstream section thereof. The barrier may join the outer side wall portion along a substantial portion of an axial length of the channel. First and second exit flow paths may allow communication with the channel either upstream or downstream of the barrier or both.

摘要:
A stabilizing element in a stabilized material particle structure, particularly an earthen embankment, wherein the material stabilizing elements that are inextensible (material with a higher modulus of elasticity than that of the surrounding particles) in composition nature but made more extensible because of its configuration. This extensibility gives the stabilizing elements the ability to mobilize more of the material shear resistance and adapt to current design standards under extensible type elements. The configuration also enhances the frictional engagement with the adjacent particles. The soil stabilizing elements are attached to facing elements and project into the compacted fill behind the facing. In some structures there may not be a facing element. Additionally, a material coating for metallic stabilizing elements that gives the elements improved corrosion protection, additional service life and/or expands the electrochemical environment in which they can be used.
