摘要:
An intervertebral implant for insertion between adjacent vertebral bodies is provided. The intervertebral implant can include a first component. The first component can have a first articulating surface, which can be generally convex. The intervertebral implant can include a second component, which can be generally in the shape of a toroid. The second component can have a second articulating surface. The second articulating surface can be generally concave and articulable with the first articulating surface for retaining motion between the first and second vertebra. The second articulating surface can have a larger radius of curvature than the first articulating surface such that a portion of the first articulating surface extends into an aperture defined by the generally toroid shape.

摘要:
Methods of fabricating solar cells and apparatuses for fabricating solar cells are described. In an example, a method of fabricating a solar cell includes treating a light-receiving surface of a substrate with a gaseous ozone (O3) process. Subsequently, the light-receiving surface of the substrate is texturized.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for facilitating trading two items (L,Q) from the group of items comprising commodities and financial instruments. At least two agents (2) want to trade the items (L,Q). There is a trading channel (3) between the two agents (2) allowing for the execution of trades. There are flow (trading) limits on the items being traded. A central computer (1) is coupled to the two agents (2). Said computer (1) is adapted to convey to each agent (2) current tradable bid and offered prices and sizes subject to the agent's (2) trading limits.
摘要:
A method of fabricating a solar cell can include forming a first dopant region over a silicon substrate and an oxide region over the first dopant region. In an embodiment, the oxide region can protect the first dopant region from a first etching process. In an embodiment, a second dopant region can be formed over the silicon substrate, where a mask can be formed to protect a first portion of the second dopant region from the first etching process. In an embodiment, the first etching process can be performed to expose portions of the silicon substrate and/or a silicon region. A second etching process can be performed to form a trench region to separate a first and second doped region of the solar cell. A third etching process can be performed to remove contaminants from the solar cell and remove any remaining portions of the oxide region.
摘要:
A method of processing a silicon substrate can include etching the silicon substrate with a first etchant having a first concentration and etching with a second etchant having a second concentration. In an embodiment, the second concentration of the second etchant can be greater than the first concentration of the first etchant. In one embodiment, the first etchant can be a different type of etchant than the second etchant. In an embodiment, the first and second etchant can be the same type of etchant. In some embodiments the silicon substrate can be cleaned with a first cleaning solution to remove contaminants from the silicon substrate prior to etching with the first etchant. In an embodiment, the silicon substrate can be cleaned with a second cleaning solution after etching the silicon substrate with a second etchant.
摘要:
A method and system for Computer Aided Detection (CAD) of abnormalities in X-ray images in which the features and/or criteria used in the CAD analysis are displayed as coded descriptors on the digital image of the X-ray to provide an indication to a user of the basis underlying the identification of a particular abnormality therefore increasing the reliability of a diagnosis established by the user.
