摘要:
A prefabricated modular reinforced concrete building system includes panel assemblies for foundations, walls, decks, and roofs designed to be built out in a manufacturing facility, shipped to a job site, and filled with concrete. Panel assemblies incorporate a space frame to ensure structural integrity during shipping and during concrete fill. Space frames can include structural columns, rebar mats, spacers, straps, and skin panels. Panel assemblies may be manufactured to contain architectural interior/external finishes, windows/doors, and pre-installed utility distribution systems.
摘要:
A quantum interference device in the form of a variable lateral confinement resonant tunneling transistor having a quantum waveguide structure including a primary current transmission path defined by a region between source and drain electrodes and where there is a resonance region therebetween in which quantum interference of tunneling wave functions establish a resonance tunneling condition that extends beyond the primary current path. Upon the application of a voltage across the drain and source electrodes, a tunneling current can be made to flow. A gate electrode formed on the quantum well structure remote from the primary current transmission path includes a variable depletion region thereunder or an electrostatic pinch off region, the size of which is a function of the magnitude of the bias voltage applied thereto. The size of the depletion region or the pinch off region affects the dimensions of the resonance region and accordingly the current flow between the source and drain electrodes as a result of a change in the energy and momentum conditions for resonance tunneling.

A system that uses the computer more efficiently in computer generated image displays by allocating priority status to the area being viewed by the observer while progressively diminishing the resolution requirements of the displayed scene toward its perimeter. The video signal corresponds to the orientation of the observer's head which is ascertained by head and eye trackers, and provides a variable level of detail that tends to match the visual acuity of the human eye.

An apparatus and method for collection and containment of collected materials is provided. The apparatus can include a vacuum truck with at least one vacuum tank disposed thereon, the vacuum tank having a hollow interior region. A flexible bladder can be disposed within the hollow interior region of the vacuum tank. The bladder can be impermeable to and compatible with the collected material and capable of containing the material therewithin.
摘要:
A solid state electronic device exhibiting negative differential resistance is fabricated by depositing a thin layer of amorphous silicon on a single crystal substrate, doped N+. The amorphous silicon is simultaneously crystallized and oxidized in a dry N2 and O2 mixture. The result is a layer of amorphous SiO2 surrounding microclusters of crystalline silicon. A layer of polycrystalline silicon is deposited to a thickness of approximately 0.5 micron. Ohmic metal contacts are made to the top and bottom. These active layers are isolated by insulating SiO2. A bias voltage applied between the metal contacts results in negative differential resistance due to tunneling through resonant energy levels in microclusters.

By using a fluorescer on the viewing surface of a visual screen and illumting the screen with ultra-violet light, a bright display of the scene is achieved when the laser scan system is operated in the negative mode to quench the fluorescence at spots on the screen that correspond to darker areas in the scene.

A solid state electronic device exhibiting negative differential resistances fabricated by depositing a thin layer of amorphous silicon on a single crystal substrate, doped N.sup.+. The amorphous silicon is simultaneously crystallized and oxidized in a dry N.sub.2 and O.sub.2 mixture. The result is a layer of amorphous Sio.sub.2 surrounding microclusters of crystalline silicon. A layer of polycrystalline silicon is deposited to a thickness of approximately 0.5 micron. Ohmic metal contacts are made to the top and bottom. These active layers are isolated by insulating SiO.sub.2. A bias voltage applied between the metal contacts results in negative differential resistance due to tunneling through resonant energy levels in microclusters.
