Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of measuring discrete locations around a perimeter of a pool, the method comprising positioning a laser measurement device at a reference point; aiming the laser measurement device at a discrete location of interest; determining the geometrical position and location of the discrete location of interest relative to the reference point; and storing the geometrical position and location of the discrete location of interest in a database.

Abstract: A method of measuring the perimeter of a swimming pool has been developed. First, a laser measurement device with a rotary motor is placed on a tripod. Next, the device and tripod are located and leveled the laser measurement in an empty swimming pool and the scan sequence is initiated. The laser measurement device is calibrated and then begins collecting a data measurement of the distance from the side of the swimming pool to the laser measurement device. The laser measurement device is rotated laterally at a defined angle to a new position using the rotary motor and the process of collecting a new data measurement is repeated until the laser measurement device has rotated 360°.

Abstract: Semiconductor structures comprising a III-nitride (e.g., gallium nitride) material region and methods associated with such structures are provided. In some embodiments, the structures include an electrically conductive material (e.g., gold) separated from certain other region(s) of the structure (e.g., a silicon substrate) by a barrier material in order to limit, or prevent, undesirable reactions between the electrically conductive material and the other component(s) which can impair device performance. In certain embodiments, the electrically conductive material may be formed in a via. For example, the via can extend from a topside of the device to a backside so that the electrically conductive material connects a topside contact to a backside contact. The structures described herein may form the basis of a number of semiconductor devices including transistors (e.g., FET), Schottky diodes, light-emitting diodes and laser diodes, amongst others.

Abstract: Gallium nitride material transistors and methods associated with the same are provided. The transistors may be used in power applications by amplifying an input signal to produce an output signal having increased power. The transistors may be designed to transmit the majority of the output signal within a specific transmission channel (defined in terms of frequency), while minimizing transmission in adjacent channels. This ability gives the transistors excellent linearity which results in high signal quality and limits errors in transmitted data. The transistors may be designed to achieve low ACPR values (a measure of excellent linearity), while still operating at high drain efficiencies and/or high output powers. Such properties enable the transistors to be used in RF power applications including third generation (3G) power applications based on W-CDMA modulation.
