Abstract:
A composite material having high hardness comprises a carbon nitrogen compound, such as CN.sub.x where x is greater than 0.1 and up to 1.33, deposited on a metal or metal compound selected to promote deposition of substantially crystalline CN.sub.x. The carbon nitrogen compound is deposited on a crystal plane of the metal or metal compound sufficiently lattice-matched with a crystal plane of the carbon nitrogen compound that the carbon nitrogen compound is substantially crystalline. A plurality of layers of the compounds can be formed in alternating sequence to provide a multi-layered, superlattice coating having a coating hardness in the range of 45-55 GPa, which corresponds to the hardness of a BN coating and approaches that of a diamond coating.

Abstract:
The present application provides a method, a equipment and a system for producing a silicon-containing products by using a silicon sludge which is produced by a diamond wire cutting silicon material. The method of the present application mainly utilizes a high oxide layer on the surface of a silicon waste particle produced during diamond wire cutting. The characteristics are such that the surface oxide disproportionates with adjacent internal elemental silicon to form silicon monoxide to be removed in a vapor to achieve a physical chemical reaction with a metal, a halogen gas, a hydrogen halide gas or hydrogen to form a high value-added silicon-containing products. The process realizes the large-scale, high-efficiency, energy-saving, continuous and low-cost complete recycling of diamond-wire cutting silicon waste.
Abstract:
The present application provides a system and method for producing a silicon-containing product by using a silicon sludge, which is produced by a cutting silicon material with a diamond wire. The method utilizes a high oxide layer on the surface of a silicon waste particle produced during diamond wire cutting. The surface oxide undergoes a disproportionation reaction with adjacent internal elemental silicon to form silicon monoxide, which is removed in a vapor to achieve a physical chemical reaction with a metal, a halogen gas, a hydrogen halide gas or hydrogen to form silicon-containing products of higher added value. The process realizes the large-scale, high-efficiency, energy-saving, continuous and low-cost complete recycling of silicon waste produced by diamond wire cutting of silicon material.

Abstract:
The present invention provides devices for beating heart surgery. The device separates the valve and the surrounding area from the rest of the vascular system so the operation procedure can be carried out while the heart is beating during the entire course of the procedure. This is made possible through a temporary valve (170) and two coronary artery conducts (130, 140) incorporated in the balloon-catheter system. The system provides better view and ease of operation and thus, reduces surgery related complication and pains.
Abstract:
A tool for depositing multilayer coatings onto a substrate. In one configuration, the tool includes a includes an in-line organic material deposition station operating under at least one of a pressure or temperature controlled environment. In another, it further is of a hybrid design that incorporates both in-line and cluster tool features. In this latter configuration, at least one of the deposition stations is configured to deposit an inorganic layer, while at least one other deposition station is configured to deposit an organic layer. The tool is particularly well-suited to depositing multilayer coatings onto discrete substrates, as well as to encapsulating environmentally-sensitive devices placed on the flexible substrate.
