Methods for fabricating a printhead are described. In one embodiment, a method includes forming on a substrate using a single fabrication technique multiple resistors, some of the resistors to be used as heater resistors configured to eject fluid and some of the resistors to be used as storage resistors that store data, annealing the heater resistors, and intentionally not annealing at least one of the storage resistors, wherein the annealed storage resistors have a first state representing a first digital value and the unannealed storage resistors have a second state representing a second digital value, such that the values associated with the storage resistors can be read by an appropriate detection circuit.

An MRI system and method for acquiring motion-compensated MR image data of an object. The MRI system includes an MRI device for generating a uniform magnetic field through the object, magnetic field gradients for imaging a portion of the object and an RF excitation field for evoking NMR response signals from the object; a computer for controlling the operation of the MRI system; a motion compensation module for generating a plurality of navigator waveforms for evoking a corresponding plurality of navigator echoes from the portion of the object while the object is being imaged, and processing the plurality of navigator echoes by determining a subset of similar navigator echoes and removing rigid-body translation from the NMR response signals associated with the subset of similar navigator echoes; and, interface circuitry for generating the magnetic gradient, RF and navigator waveforms and sampling the NMR response signals and the plurality of navigator echoes.

A reusable, disposable, or confectionery drinking straw includes a bulbous end portion having a plurality of apertures. The bulbous straw end portion is integral to the straw or it may be removably attached to the straw. The drinking straw device may include or be in the form of a bracelet. The bracelet portion is either integral to the straw or removably attached to the straw.
摘要:
A fluid ejection device having storage and methods of forming and using such fluid ejection devices are described. In one embodiment, a substrate comprises multiple heater resistors supported thereby, and configured for ejecting fluid onto a medium. One storage structure is supported by the substrate and configured to store data.

A high-resolution printer includes a printhead having optimized features including 3 to 20 micron diameter orifices spaced apart from adjacent orifices by a distance of between about 15 and 75 microns. The orifice plate is electroformed and plated to a thickness ranging from about 6 to 19 microns. A barrier layer secures the orifice plate to a printhead substrate.

A lithographic process for semiconductor device fabrication is disclosed. In the process a patterned mask having a multilayer film formed on a substrate is illuminated by extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation and the radiation reflected from the pattern mask is directed onto a layer of energy sensitive material formed on a substrate. The image of the pattern on the mask is thus introduced into the energy sensitive material. The image is then developed and transferred into the underlying substrate. The multilayer film is inspected for defects by applying a layer of energy-sensitive film (called the inspection film) in proximity to the multilayer film and exposing the energy-sensitive material to EUV radiation. The thickness of the multilayer film is such that a portion of the EUV radiation is transmitted through the inspection film, reflected from the multilayer film and back into the inspection film. The exposed inspection film is then developed, and the developed inspection film is inspected to determine if it indicates the presence of defects in the underlying multilayer film.

A reusable or confectionery drinking straw includes a second end portion mouthpiece having a single aperture or multiple apertures, the sensation of the liquid flowing through the aperture(s) capable of being modified by the user. The mouthpiece of the straw device is integral to the straw or it may be removably attached to the straw. The drinking straw device may be edible, partially edible, or inedible. The drinking straw device may be in the form of a bracelet, which may be edible, partially edible, or inedible.

A method, apparatus, and system are directed toward managing cluster membership through a discovery process that enables selection of a master for the cluster. If a node on a network is the first to initiate the discovery process, it assumes the master role. Where two or more nodes enter the discovery process at the same time, or where a cluster is disjointed, views of the potential members to the cluster are shared among the nodes. Each node coalesces and sorts the views. The master may then be determined from the sorted views. In one embodiment, the master is that node in the results having a highest unique identifier. The identified master sends an assertion of its role to the other nodes. If no assertion is received, or multiple assertions are received, updated views are again shared and sorted. In one embodiment, the nodes may be within a peer-to-peer network.
