55296335, Jun 25, 1996

Filed:

May 11, 1995

Appl. No.:

8/471308

Inventors:

Dan O. Enniss - Sandy UT
Matthew Simpson - Sudbury MA

Assignee:

Saint-Gobain/Norton Industrial Ceramics Corporation - Worcester MA

International Classification:

C23C 1600
C23C 1650

US Classification:

118723R

Abstract:

An apparatus for depositing a substance includes a rotating mandrel assembly with a mandrel having a deposition surface exposed to the vapor so that the substance is deposited on the deposition surface and having a base having a plurality of radiator fins extending therefrom. A plurality of receptor fins interleave with the radiator fins and provide heat exchange to the receptor fins to cool the mandrel during deposition of the substance on the deposition surface of the mandrel.

Saint-Gobain/Norton Industrial Ceramics Corporation - Worcester MA

International Classification:

C23C 1422

US Classification:

4272481

Abstract:

A method for depositing a substance includes the following steps: producing a vapor containing constituents of the substance; providing a rotating mandrel assembly that includes a mandrel, having a deposition surface exposed to the vapor so that the substance is deposited on the deposition surface, and a base having a plurality of radiator fins extending therefrom; interleaving a plurality of receptor fins with the radiator fins; and providing heat exchange to the receptor fins to cool the mandrel during deposition of the substance on the deposition surface of the mandrel.

Assignee:

Saint Gobain/Norton Industrial Ceramics Corp. - Worcester MA

International Classification:

B05D 306
C23C 1626

US Classification:

427577

Abstract:

A method is disclosed for depositing diamond film, including the following steps: providing an environment comprising hydrogen gas and a hydrocarbon gas; dissociating hydrogen gas of the environment by dielectric barrier discharge to obtain atomic hydrogen; and providing a deposition surface in the environment and implementing diamond deposition on the deposition surface from the hydrocarbon gas, assisted by the atomic hydrogen. In a preferred embodiment, the atomic hydrogen is transported by molecular diffusion from its dissociation site to the deposition surface.

Abstract:

Map data for generating a digital map of a geographic area is received, the digital map is generated using the received map data, and the digital map is displayed via a user interface. An interactive runway of photographic images corresponding to objects located within the geographic area is generated, the runway being an arrangement of the photographic images. Generating the runway may include rating each of the candidate photographic images corresponding to objects located within the within the geographic area using viewing signals related to at least one of the photographic image or an object depicted in the photographic image, and selecting, from among the candidate photographic images, the photographic images for inclusion in the interactive runway, using the rating. The interactive runway is displayed over the digital map.

Abstract:

Map data for generating a digital map of a geographic area is received, the digital map is generated using the received map data, and the digital map is displayed via a user interface. An interactive runway of photographic images corresponding to objects located within the geographic area is generated, the runway being a linear arrangement of the photographic images. Generating the runway includes rating each of the candidate photographic images corresponding to objects located within the within the geographic area using viewing signals related to at least one of the photographic image or an object depicted in the photographic image, and selecting, from among the candidate photographic images, the photographic images for inclusion in the interactive runway, using the rating. The interactive runway is displayed over the digital map.
