Abstract:
Various methods and systems are provided for facilitating the creation of a new and potentially thinner form of dielectric. Alternatively, for a given capacitance, a thicker layer can be created with lower risk of leakage. The present disclosure will enable the creation of physically smaller electronic components. Isotope-Modified Hafnium Dielectric is used to create a dielectric layer with a greater range of dielectric coefficients, which may enable the creation of smaller and/or more reliable electronic components.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel compounds having anti-cancer activity, methods of making these compounds, and their use for treating cancer and drug-resistant tumors, e.g. melanoma, metastatic melanoma, drug resistant melanoma, prostate cancer and drug resistant prostate cancer.
Abstract:
An optical waveguide having a cladding layer formed of high-purity glass, or a cladding layer formed of high-purity isotope-proportion modified glass, and with a core of high-purity isotope-proportion-modified glass with the index of refraction of the core glass greater than the index of refraction of the cladding glass, said high-purity isotope-proportion-modified core material having a Si-29-isotope proportion at most 4.447% Si-29 (atom/atom) of all silicon atoms in said core, or at least 4.90% of Si-29 (atom/atom) atoms in said core, or having a Ge-73 isotope proportion of at most 7.2% Ge-73 (atom/atom) of all germanium atoms in said core, or at least 8.18% of Ge-73 (atom/atom) of Germanium atoms in said core region.
Abstract:
An apparatus for measuring lung ventilation, comprising: a pressure device to measure volume of air flow; an aerosol-generating device that provides aerosol particles to be released at a determined point in a breathing cycle; a mouthpiece with a detector that measures the concentration of aerosol particles for a given volume during the breathing cycle; and a computing device configured to provide lung ventilation data as a function of time constants.
Abstract:
Indole derivatives and analog compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same are provided. Also provided are methods of using these compounds to inhibit tubulin polymerization in a cell associated with a proliferative disease or to treat a cancer.
Abstract:
A method of providing a rapid, broad spectrum bacterial control, and a rapid persistent antiviral control on a surface, and particularly a mammalian skin surface, is disclosed. In the method, a compound or composition capable of lowering skin pH to less than about 4 is applied to the skin, and preferably is allowed to remain on the skin.
Abstract:
A device and method for deterring animals from entering a predetermined area. The device and method for deterring animal behavior can greatly increase safety of the animals and increase the safety of the surroundings for humans by limiting personal contact, and by repelling unwanted animals away from an area under protection. In particular, the device and method deters or repels animals from an area under protection by using at least one of mechanical vibrations, sounds, lights and aromas.
