    摘要: A subsurface Zener diode is provided wherein a semiconductor has formed thereon spaced apart anode and cathode regions of opposite type conductivity, such regions having opposing surface portions, and disposed beneath a surface of such semiconductor a buried region of conductivity type the same as one of such regions, such buried region extending laterally through the spaced apart regions, one of the spaced apart regions having an opposing surface portion thereof formed with a portion which protrudes towards the opposing surface portion of the other one of the spaced apart regions. With such arrangement, an electric field produced between the spaced apart regions becomes concentrated at the protrusion with the result that Zener breakdown occurs repeatedly at the same point in the semiconductor thereby reducing long term drift. Also, a Kelvin buried Zener diode is provided by forming a second laterally spaced anode region with the cathode region disposed between the pair of anode regions. One of the pair of anodes provides the force anode and the other the sense anode. The buried region extends laterally through the pair of anodes and the cathode region. The cathode region is provided with the portion which protrudes towards the force anode of the pair of anode regions and such cathode is elongated along an axis which passes between the pair of force and sense anode regions. The elongated cathode thus improves isolation between the force and sense anodes.

With such arrangement, the level of current produced by each current source and its contribution to the total output current are independent of the digital word being coverted and the level of current contributing to the total current flow through the output bus is also independent of the digital word being converted. Further, the switching time of the switching transistors is also independent of the digital word being converted.

    摘要: Novel cationic amphiphiles are provided that facilitate transport of biologically active (therapeutic) molecules into cells. The amphiphiles contain lipophilic groups derived from steroids, from mono or dialkylamines, or from alkyl or acyl groups; and cationic groups, protonatable at physiological pH, derived from amines, alkylamines or polyalkylamines. There are provided also therapeutic compositions prepared typically by contacting a dispersion of one or more cationic amphiphiles with the therapeutic molecules. Therapeutic molecules that can be delivered into cells according to the practice of the invention include DNA, RNA, and polypeptides. Representative uses of the therapeutic compositions of the invention include providing gene therapy, and delivery of antisense polynucleotides or biologically active polypeptides to cells. With respect to therapeutic compositions for gene therapy, the DNA is provided typically in the form of a plasmid for complexing with the cationic amphiphile. Novel and highly effective plasmid constructs are also disclosed, including those that are particularly effective at providing gene therapy for clinical conditions complicated by inflammation. Additionally, targeting of organs for gene therapy by intravenous administration of therapeutic compositions is described.

    摘要: A turbofan engine fan blade made of composite material, and a method of making the fan, are taught. The fan blade essentially comprises an airfoil section having a root end and made of a plurality of bonded plies of composite material which are splayed and which are in a staggered condition at the root end; a two-piece platform section made of titanium or of aluminum, with one piece of the platform on each side of the airfoil section; and a steel outsert section which holds and secures the platform section to the airfoil section, with the outsert section having a triangular shaped cavity located at the root end of the airfoil section, between the splayed and staggered plies of the airfoil section. Among other advantages, the cavity eliminates the "insert plies" (or wedge) used in the prior art and the inherent disadvantages associated with such use.
