International Classification:

H01J 37244

US Classification:

25037006

Abstract:

A pass-through shutter mechanism enables the semiconductor crystal of an energy dispersive x-ray detector to extend beyond the shutter mechanism for analysis, adjacent to the sample, achieving optimum solid angle collection efficiency. The shutter mechanism provides optimum protection of the semiconductor detector crystal from high energy x-ray or secondary electron events produced in the chambers of electron microscopes, microprobes, x-ray spectrometers, etc.

National Aeronautics and Space Administration - Washington DC

International Classification:

H01L 3106

US Classification:

136261

Abstract:

A photovoltaic cell, such as a solar cell, is provided which has a higher output voltage than prior cells. The improved cell includes a substrate of doped silicon, a first layer of silicon disposed on the substrate and having opposite doping, and a second layer of silicon carbide disposed on the first layer. The silicon carbide preferably has the same type of doping as the first layer.

National Aeronautics and Space Administration - Washington DC

International Classification:

B23K 120
B05D 302

US Classification:

228124

Abstract:

A firmly adherent film 16 of bondable metal, such as silver, is applied to the surface 10 of glass or other substrate by decomposing a layer 14 of a solution of a thermally decomposable metallo-organic deposition (MOD) compound such as silver neodecanoate in xylene. The MOD compound thermally decomposes into metal and gaseous by-products. Sealing is accomplished by depositing a layer 18 of bonding metal, such as solder or a brazing alloy, on the metal film and then forming an assembly with another high melting point metal surface 20 such as a layer of Kovar. When the assembly is heated above the temperature of the solder, the solder flows, wets the adjacent surfaces and forms a hermetic seal between the metal film 14 and metal surface 20 when the assembly cools.

Appl. No.:

15/354925

Inventors:

Brian J. Gallagher - Los Angeles CA, US

International Classification:

C12M 1/00
C12M 1/06
A01G 33/00
B01F 13/00

Abstract:

A lateral circulator for generating agitation or circulation in a cultivation pond is disclosed. The circulator comprises at least a drive pulley and a secondary pulley, both oriented vertically and placed in the pond separated from one another along the length of the pond. The drive pulley is coupled to a motor, or to a drive train that is itself coupled to the motor. An endless belt is trained over the drive pulley and the secondary pulley. A plurality of cleats is provided along the exterior of the belt. The cleats are typically angled and serve to drive water as the belt rotates through the water. Typically, the belt would extend over much of the length of the cultivation pond, providing agitation and circulation over an extensive, continuous area of the cultivation pond.
