  • Publication number: 20240136180
    Abstract: A method for growing nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) on Ga2O3 to provide thermal management in Ga2O3-based devices. A protective SiNx interlayer is deposited on the Ga2O3 before growth of the NCD layer to protect the Ga2O3 from damage caused during growth of the NCD layer. The presence of the NCD provides thermal management and enables improved performance of the Ga2O3-based device.

  • Patent number: 11944011
    Abstract: Thermoelectric (TE) nanocomposite material that includes at least one component consisting of nanocrystals. A TE nanocomposite material in accordance with the present invention can include, but is not limited to, multiple nanocrystalline structures, nanocrystal networks or partial networks, or multi-component materials, with some components forming connected interpenetrating networks including nanocrystalline networks. The TE nanocomposite material can be in the form of a bulk solid having semiconductor nanocrystallites that form an electrically conductive network within the material.

  • Patent number: 6262064
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition, and method of use, of an actahydrobenzo[f]quinoline-based compound represented by the following structural formula: In this formula, R1 is —OH or —OCH3 and R2 is —H, —OH or —OCH3. In addition, R3 is a C1 to C2 saturated or unsaturated, alkyl group. Furthermore, R4 is an aryl group, wherein examples of suitable aryl groups, as defined herein, include phenyl and thienyl groups. The method of this invention relates to the use of the claimed composition to treat psychotic disorders, to treat Parkinson's disease, or to sedate a mammal by administering an effective amount of a claimed composition.

  • Patent number: 6218367
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel, water soluble, carbohydrate derivatives of paclitaxel, methods of treatment and pharmaceutical compositions that utilize or comprise one or more of such compounds. The compounds of the invention are modified at the 2′ or 7 position of paclitaxel and have the general formula [paclitaxel]-[link]1−2-[sugar]. These compounds show improved biological activity toward many cancer cell lines as compared to paclitaxel. Additionally, the conjugates are made from natural non-toxic materials which, when released, will be adsorbed as part of the body components.
