摘要:
A high-power and high-gain ultra-short gate HEMT device has exceptional gain and an exceptionally high breakdown voltage provided by an increased width asymmetric recess for the gate electrode, by a composite channel layer including a thin indium arsenide layer embedded in the indium gallium arsenide channel layer and by double doping through the use of an additional silicon doping spike. The improved transistor has an exceptional 14 dB gain at 110 GHz and exhibits an exceptionally high 3.5-4 V breakdown voltage, thus to provide high gain, high-power and ultra-high frequency in an ultra-short gate device.

摘要:
A method for fabricating ultra-short T-gates on heterojunction field effect transistors (HFETs) comprising the steps of (a) providing a coating of three layers of resists, with polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) with high molecular weight on the bottom, polydimethylglutarimide (PMGI) in the middle, and PMMA with low molecular weight on the top; (b) in a first exposure, exposing and developing the layers with a dose of a developer that is high enough to allow the developer to break the top PMMA but low to avoid contributing significantly to the overall dose received in the bottom PMMA layer; and (c) in a second exposure, using an exposure and developing process to define 0.03-0.05 um openings in the bottom PMMA layer.

A robot fork calibration method and system is provided. At least three non-linear arranged lower sensors are provided on a bottom surface of the fork to detect distances to a fixed detection point. The fixed detection point and a horizontal plane of the detection point define a reference coordinate system. Spatial coordinates of the lower sensors in the reference coordinate system are calculated and a plane equation as well as a tilted angle of the fork are obtained according to the spatial coordinates. Therefore, the height of the fork can be calibrated according to the Z axis coordinates of the lower sensors and the levelness of the fork can be calibrated according to the tilted angle.

Oxygen toxicity is one of the major risk factors in the development of the chronic lung disease or bronchopulmonary dysplasia in premature infants. Using proteomic analysis, we discovered mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (mtALDH or ALDH2) was down-regulated in neonatal rat lung after hyperoxic exposure. To study the role of mtALDH in hyperoxic lung injury, we overexpressed mtALDH in human lung epithelial cells (A549) and found that mtALDH significantly reduced hyperoxia-induced cell death. Compared to control cells (Neo-A549), the necrotic cell death in mtALDH overexpressing cells (mtALDH-A549) decreased from 25.3% to 6.5%, 50.5% to 9.1% and 52.4% to 15.06% after 24-, 48- and 72-hour hyperoxic exposure, respectively. The levels of intracellular and mitochondria-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mtALDH-A549 cells after hyperoxic exposure were significantly lowered compared to Neo-A549 cells. mtALDH overexpression significantly stimulated extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation under normoxic and hyperoxic conditions. Inhibition of ERK phosphorylation partially eliminated the protective effect of mtALDH in hyperoxia-induced cell death, suggesting ERK activation by mtALDH conferred cellular resistance to hyperoxia. mtALDH overexpression augmented Akt phosphorylation and maintained the total Akt level in mtALDH-A549 cells under normoxic and hyperoxic conditions. Inhibition of PI3K activation by LY294002 in mtALDH-A549 cells significantly increased necrotic cell death after hyperoxic exposure, indicating that PI3K/Akt activation by mtALDH played an important role in cell survival after hyperoxia. Taken together, these data demonstrate that mtALDH overexpression attenuates hyperoxia-induced cell death in lung epithelial cells through reduction of ROS, activation of ERK/MAPK and PI3K/Akt cell survival signaling pathways.

The present invention concerns a submerged entry nozzle for use in the continuous casting of liquid metal. The nozzle comprises a central bore and a plurality of pairs of discharge outlets. The cross-sectional area of the central bore decreases between pairs of discharge outlets, such that ratio of height to width of any outlet is one or less.

A planar 2×2 switch is provided for controllably coupling first and second input channels to first and second output channels. The switch includes a first reflector that is movable between a first position and a second position. When the first reflector is in its second position, it reflects light from the first input channel to the second output channel and reflects light from the second input channel to the first output channel. When the first reflection is in its first position, it does not affect the optical beams in the switch. Instead, these beams are reflected by a second reflector which has two reflective surfaces. The second reflector reflects light from the first input channel to the first output channel and reflects light from the second input channel to the second output channel. Switches having a larger number of input and output channels are also provided.
摘要:
Molten metal is fed to a caster in a continuous casting operation through a distributor that divides the molten metal into four streams flowing in circulating patterns from the central axis of the caster. Each stream sweeps first along the longer side wall of the caster toward the corner, then back along the shorter side wall toward the center line. The result is a higher degree of fragmentation of metal crystals as they form, and a better distribution of the fragments across the caster cross section, as well as a more even temperature distribution.
