Patent number: 11996593Abstract: An electrochemical cell that oxidizes a solution provides a continuous and stable supply of an oxidizing ion solution to a fixture or vessel used for the purposes of decontaminating metal and metal alloys. The electrochemical cell includes an anode compartment that oxidizes the solution in nitric acid or methane sulfonic acid at a rate equal to or greater than a rate of reduction, or generates the oxidizing ions prior to use in a batch. The electrochemical cell is part of a larger system that facilitates online measurement system which measures the oxidizing ion solution and the dissolved PuO2, UO2, AmO2, other radionuclides, or other contaminates in real-time. Solution decontamination system removes the dissolved PuO2/UO2/AmO2, other radionuclides, or other contaminates from the oxidizing ion solution, real time acoustic monitoring of the thickness of the surface being contaminated, and automation of a delivery system facilitates flow between surface and electrochemical cell.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2021Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: TRIAD NATIONAL SECURITY, LLCInventors: Benjamin Karmiol, Sean Peter Walsh, David Anthony Tyler Rodriguez, Jared Tyler Stritzinger, Steven Douglas McKee, Kirk Weisbrod, Jeremy Jacob Monroe, Gabriel Andrade, Quinn McCulloch, Janelle Droessler, Alp Tugrul Findikoglu, Taeho Ju

Patent number: 7240726Abstract: A transportable, elevating operator cabin for use in connection with controlling coiled tubing injection equipment comprises a cabin including control elements; an elongated flexible element of fixed length, such as a belt or chain, extending under the cabin, between two, elevated points on adjacent structures located on opposite sides of the cabin; and a take-up mechanism for shortening the length of the flexible element between the two, elevated points. The take-up mechanism is mounted in a fixed position relative to the cabin so that operation of the take-up mechanism results in elevating of the cabin with respect to the adjacent structures. The cabin may be raised to a distance roughly equal to the height of the cabin while maintaining a compact design not much larger than the cabin itself that is suitable for transport, and the arrangement avoids mechanical complexity and costs associated with using other types of lifting mechanisms.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2004Date of Patent: July 10, 2007Assignee: Varco I/P, Inc.Inventors: Troy Cain, David McCulloch

Publication number: 20070091062Abstract: A method of manufacturing an active matrix display device involves manufacturing a first substrate arrangement comprising a rigid glass substrate and an overlying plastic substrate. Pixel circuits are formed over the plastic substrate. The rigid glass substrate (12) is only removed from the plastic substrate after the mounting of the active and passive plates of the display into display modules (10). This method enables substantially conventional substrate handling, processing and cell making to be employed, for example in standard AMLCD factories, with only minimal extra equipment needed. A more general manufacturing method is also disclosed for fabricating TFTs on a spin-on plastic layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2004Publication date: April 26, 2007Inventors: Ian French, David McCulloch

Publication number: 20050282316Abstract: A method of manufacturing an electronic device comprising a thin film transistor (42), comprises forming a hydrogen-containing layer (22) over a semiconductor layer (10; 20), irradiating the hydrogen-containing layer so as to hydrogenate the semiconductor layer, and then forming electrodes (24; 26, 28) over the semiconductor layer. A short diffusion length and direct path is provided for the hydrogen thus allowing rapid hydrogenation of the semiconductor layer using relatively few, high-fluence laser pulses. The supporting substrate (12) is not heated significantly making the method particularly useful for TFFs on polymer substrates. Crystallisation and hydrogenation of the semiconductor layer can be executed in the same irradiation step.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2003Publication date: December 22, 2005Inventors: Nigel Young, Soo Yoon, Ian French, David McCulloch
