Patent number: 8910379Abstract: Methods of fabricating coated components using multiple types of fillers are provided. One method comprises forming one or more grooves in an outer surface of a substrate. Each groove has a base and extends at least partially along the outer surface of the substrate. The method further includes disposing a sacrificial filler within the groove(s), disposing a permanent filler over the sacrificial filler, disposing a coating over at least a portion of the substrate and over the permanent filler, and removing the first sacrificial filler from the groove(s), to define one or more channels for cooling the component. A component with a permanent filler is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2013Date of Patent: December 16, 2014Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Raul Basilio Rebak, Renee Bushey Rohling, Scott Andrew Weaver, Ronald Scott Bunker, Don Mark Lipkin, Lawrence Bernard Kool

Patent number: 8528208Abstract: Methods of fabricating coated components using multiple types of fillers are provided. One method comprises forming one or more grooves in an outer surface of a substrate. Each groove has a base and extends at least partially along the outer surface. A sacrificial filler is deposited within the groove, a second filler is deposited over the sacrificial filler, and a coating is disposed over at least a portion of the outer surface and over the second filler. The method further includes removing the sacrificial filler and at least partially removing the second filler from the groove(s), to define one or more channels for cooling the component.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2011Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Raul Basilio Rebak, Ronald Scott Bunker, Lawrence Bernard Kool, Don Mark Lipkin, John Brian McDermott, Ann Melinda Ritter, Renee Bushey Rohling

Patent number: 7902736Abstract: The present invention relates to gated nanorod field emission devices, wherein such devices have relatively small emitter tip-to-gate distances, thereby providing a relatively high emitter tip density and low turn on voltage. Such methods employ a combination of traditional device processing techniques (lithography, etching, etc.) with electrochemical deposition of nanorods. These methods are relatively simple, cost-effective, and efficient; and they provide field emission devices that are suitable for use in x-ray imaging applications, lighting applications, flat panel field emission display (FED) applications, etc.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2008Date of Patent: March 8, 2011Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Heather Diane Hudspeth, Ji Ung Lee, Reed Roeder Corderman, Anping Zhang, Renee Bushey Rohling, Lauraine Denault, Joleyn Eileen Balch
