In one example, a board suitable for use in water sports includes a body that includes an upper surface and a lower surface. The board also includes a retractable fin connected to the body and configured to assume extended and retracted positions. In the extended position, a substantial portion of the retractable fin extends below the lower surface of the body, and in the retracted position, a substantial portion of the retractable fin resides within a recess at least partly defined by the body.

Systems and methods are described herein for dynamic random access memory (DRAM) devices. In one aspect, a plurality of DRAM cells forms a stacked structure. Individual DRAM cells may include a substantially planar capacitive element formed of two substantially planar electrodes separated by an insulating layer. Individual DRAM cells may also include a transistor in communication with and substantially planar to the capacitive element, and a word line, which activates the access gate of the transistor when a voltage is applied to the access gate, formed proximate to and substantially parallel with the capacitive element. Individual DRAM cells may share at least one data line, oriented in a vertical direction relative to the stacked structure, that is in communication with capacitive elements through the access gate of individual DRAM cells and is operable to store and access charge stored in individual capacitive elements of individual DRAM cells.

Systems and methods are described herein for electron-beam lithography. In some aspects, a photo electron emitter and channel array assembly (PEECAA) may include a photo-electron emitting cathode having a uniform planar surface and an array of beam channels proximate to the cathode. In some cases, at least one of the cathode or the array of beam channels is removable from the PEECAA. The array of beam channels may include a grid of apertures, a plurality of beam channels, and a shared lens array including a plurality of lenses proximate to an exit of the plurality of beam channels. Individual apertures of the grid of apertures align with individual beam channels to allow electrons from the cathode to pass through the array of beam channels and the shared lens array to form a pixelated pattern, such that, upon exposure to the target, the pixelated pattern is permanently formed on the target.

One or more pellicles protect a cathode, the pellicles comprised of a thin layer of material that allows electrons to pass while preventing contamination of the cathode from elements originating beyond the pellicle or contamination of an outside apparatus from elements originating on or near the cathode. The pellicle can be supported by an insulator, the insulator in turn supported by a deflecting layer. The pellicle can be maintained at a positive voltage relative to the cathode, such that a voltage gradient is created between the cathode and the pellicle that accelerates electrons emitted by the cathode away from the cathode. The pellicle is located at an appropriate distance from the cathode to allow electron transmission matching the energy of the electrons at that distance.
摘要:
An article including a pest-combating composition applied to or incorporated in such article, wherein the pest-combating composition includes capsicum and/or a cruciferous agent selected from among mustard and horseradish, as active ingredients of the composition. The active ingredients may be micro-encapsulated or otherwise formulated for application to the manufactured article for subsequent pest-combating activity. The pest-combating compositions are active in the dry state, and are useful in application to containers for storage and transport of foodstuffs, as well as in other applications in which an article having the pest-combating composition applied thereto would otherwise be susceptible to degradation, destruction or other adverse effect from pest species, e.g., insects and rodents.

A technique for reducing a prototype database for use with handwriting recognizers. The prototype database is divided into multiple spaces and the effect on the error rate for removing each prototype is identified. All prototypes that contribute to the error rate are removed. If further prototype database reduction is desired, the technique identifies and removes one or more prototypes that have the least adverse effect on the error rate across all spaces. The technique continues removing prototypes in this manner until a desired prototype database size has been achieved.

A chorded zither including a self-supporting metal frame with separate and structurally independent sound board panels that can be easily interchanged and affixed to said frame to create different looking and sounding instrument configurations with the same basic instrument, including sound chambers that are deeper and greater in volume than those of the prior art.

An adjustable height seat for a wheelchair has a seat supported on a telescoping support. The seat rises and lowers in response to repositioning of the user's body weight on the seat. A spring normally urges the seat towards an elevated condition. The seat is depressed when the user's body assumes a relatively reclined position to overcome upward urging of the spring. Conversely, the seat rises when the user's body weight is partially rested on a ground surface allowing the spring to lift the seated user's remaining body weight. The telescoping support is frictionally arrested in a generally upright or forward leaning position of the seated user. The adjustable height seat can be installed in a wheelchair frame either permanently or interchangeably with a conventional wheelchair seat.

A gearbox assembly includes a housing which contains a differential gear set and a two-speed reduction gear set. A spider drives differential pinion gears nested between outer pinion gears. A first and a second clutch that can be engaged “on the fly” achieve the two-speed functionality of the gearbox assembly. Another gearbox assembly includes an on-demand locking differential with a differential clutch located between differential axle side gears to selectively lock the differential axle side gears together and thereby lock the axle shafts.
