Abstract: A trenched base capacitive humidity sensor includes a plurality of trenches formed in a conductive layer, such as polysilicon or metal, on a substrate. The trenches are arranged parallel to the each other and partition the conductive layer into a plurality of trenched silicon electrodes. At least two trenched silicon electrodes are configured to form a capacitive humidity sensor. The trenches that define the trenched silicon electrodes can be filled partially (e.g., sidewall coverage) or completely with polyimide (Pl) or silicon nitride (SiN). A polyimide layer may also be provided on the conductive layer over the trenches and trenched electrodes. The trenches and the trenched silicon electrodes may have different widths to enable different sensor characteristics in the same structure.

Abstract: A device with an out-of-plane electrode includes a device layer positioned above a handle layer, a first electrode defined within the device layer, a cap layer having a first cap layer portion spaced apart from an upper surface of the device layer by a gap, and having an etch stop perimeter defining portion defining a lateral edge of the gap, and an out-of-plane electrode defined within the first cap layer portion by a spacer.

Abstract: A system and method for forming a sensor device with a buried first electrode includes providing a first silicon portion with an electrode layer and a second silicon portion with a device layer. The first silicon portion and the second silicon portion are adjoined along a common oxide layer formed on the electrode layer of the first silicon portion and the device layer of the second silicon portion. The resulting multi-silicon stack includes a buried lower electrode that is further defined by a buried oxide layer, a highly-doped ion implanted region, or a combination thereof. The multi-silicon stack has a plurality of silicon layers and silicon dioxide layers with electrically isolated regions in each layer allowing for both the lower electrode and an upper electrode. The multi-silicon stack further includes a spacer that enables the lower electrode to be accessible from a topside of the sensor device.

Abstract: A system includes a view screen with polarized output. A window capable of blocking the polarized output at least in part cloaks the view screen to frustrate viewing of the view screen through the window. In some cases, the window comprises an array of panels capable of blocking multiple polarizations. The array may disrupt multiple different polarized view screen outputs while maintaining transparency to unpolarized light. In some cases, the window capable of blocking polarized output may be paired with view screen cover that converts view screen output in an unblocked polarization to one of the one or more polarizations blocked by the window.

Abstract: A speaking valve assembly (2, 200) for fitting to the machine end (13) of a tracheostomy tube (1) has a one-way valve (23, 236) that allows inhalation but prevents exhalation. The assembly further includes a pressure relief arrangement that remains closed during normal respiration and vocalisation but opens when pressure in the assembly rises above a normal level. In one arrangement the pressure relief arrangement takes the form of a ball valve (30) with a ball (32) that is lifted away from an opening (31) by excess pressure but falls back to block the opening when pressure reduces. An alternative pressure arrangement has a slidable collar (226) that normally covers vent apertures (223) in a housing (220) of the assembly. When pressure in the assembly rises above a normal level the collar (226) is pushed out to expose the vent apertures (223) and allow air to escape.
