Appl. No.:

11/471915

Inventors:

Michael Sherman - Brooklyn NY, US
Steven Halperin - New York NY, US
Paul Robinson - New York NY, US

Assignee:

Lehman Brothers Inc. - New York NY

International Classification:

G06Q 40/00

US Classification:

705035000

Abstract:

In one aspect, the invention comprises a method comprising issuing perpetual preferred securities that provide non-cumulative dividends with a fixed liquidation preference; wherein valuation of the securities upon redemption or conversion is based on market value of a specified number of common shares, and wherein the securities are operable to receive treasury stock method accounting. In various embodiments: (1) the securities receive C or D Basket treatment from Moody's; (2) the securities receive treasury stock method accounting because, upon conversion or redemption, common shares are issued only with respect to the valuation of the securities in excess of the fixed liquidation preference; and (3) upon conversion or redemption the number of common shares is equal to (A×B−C)/B, where A=a conversion rate, B=price per share of the common shares, and C=the fixed liquidation preference.

US Classification:

70503600R

Abstract:

In one aspect, the invention comprises a security that: (a) is tax deductible; (b) receives equity credit of 40-75% from Moody's and S&P; and (c) qualifies for net share settled accounting. In another aspect, the invention comprises a method comprising: (a) structuring a convertible security to be tax deductible; (b) structuring the convertible security to receive equity credit of 40-75% from Moody's and S&P; (c) structuring the convertible security to qualify for net share settled accounting; and (d) issuing the security.

International Classification:

H01L 21205
H01L 21302
C01B 3302

US Classification:

148175

Abstract:

Epitaxial layers of silicon, having thicknesses of at least about 25. mu. m, are grown on the (100) or (111) planar surfaces of silicon substrates by the vapor deposition of silicon from the reaction of dichlorosilane and hydrogen gas in a reactor furnace. Good epitaxial layers of silicon of substantially uniform thicknesses are formed on the substrates when the growth rate of the epitaxial layer is between about 5 and 20. mu. m/minute in the reactor furnace, and the latter is heated to a temperature of between about 1050. degree. and 1200. degree. C.

International Classification:

H01L 3106

US Classification:

136 89TF

Abstract:

A body of semiconductor material having a first surface and a second surface spaced from the first surface includes a first layer along the first surface, a second layer along the second surface, a third layer between and contiguous to the first and second layers. The third layer is of a conductivity type opposite that of the first and second layers so as to form first and second P-N junctions respectively therebetween. The thickness of the third layer is at least twice the minority carrier diffusion length of the semiconductor material, so that carriers generated within the third layer have a high probability of being collected by one of the P-N junctions. The body includes means for electrically connecting the first and second P-N junctions and means for transferring the carriers collected at the first P-N junction to a portion of the first surface.
