Abstract: The present disclosure relates to automated systems, devices, and methods of sewing a target device such as a prosthetic implant device. The systems and methods include forming a stitch on the target device, adjusting a thread coupled to a needle used to form the stitch so that the thread is clear of (e.g., does not interfere with) a path of the needle, and applying a targeted tension to the thread to tension the stitch on the target device. The suturing process can also include providing different targeted tensions during formation of the stitch. The suturing process can also include providing different targeted tensions at different stages of the formation of the stitch to aid in forming the stitch, to clear the needle path of the thread, and/or to hold the stitch in place in preparation for the next stitch.

Abstract: A preclean process may be omitted from a eutectic bonding sequence. To remove oxide from one or more surfaces of a device wafer of a micro-electromechanical-system (MEMS) structure, a duration of an acid-based etch process in the eutectic bonding sequence may be increased relative to the duration of the acid-based etch process when the preclean process is performed. The increased duration of the acid-based etch process enables the acid-based etch process to remove the oxide from the one or more surfaces of the device wafer without the use of a preceding preclean process. This reduces the complexity and cycle time of the eutectic bonding sequence, reduces the risk of stiction between suspended mechanical components of the MEMS structure, and/or reduces the likelihood that the MEMS structure may be rendered defective or inoperable during manufacturing, which increases process yield.

Abstract: A titanium sulfide (TiS) nanomaterial and a composite material thereof for wave absorption are disclosed. The TiS nanomaterial is in a form of dispersed micro-particles which are bulks formed by stacking two-dimensional nano-sheets. The TiS nanomaterial is a bulk formed by stacking two-dimensional nano-sheets, thereby having a laminated structure that improves the wave absorption effect. In addition, experimental results demonstrate that the TiS nanomaterial with a dose of 40 wt% has the most excellent wave absorption performance, with a minimum reflection loss up to -47.4 dB, an effective absorption bandwidth of 5.9 GHz and an absorption peak frequency of 6.8 GHz, which are superior to those of existing two-dimensional bulk materials. One of reasons for the excellent wave absorption performance of the TiS nanomaterial may be because the laminated micro-morphology of TiS results in the electromagnetic wave refraction loss.
