Abstract: On the first side substrate of an electro-optical device, a first maintenance capacitance is formed by a first capacitance electrode, a first dielectric layer, and a second capacitance electrode overlapped with each other on a bottom and an inner walls of a first recess section formed in an inter-layer insulation film. The inter-layer insulation film needs to be thick and thus an inter-layer insulation film needs to be thin. A first capacitance line is formed on a surface of the inter-layer insulation film on the side of a pixel electrode. Thus, the first capacitance line shields a section between a gate electrode and the second capacitance electrode to which a drain potential is applied.

Abstract: A gearbox includes a planetary gearset, an input shaft coupled to a sun gear of the planetary gearset, and an output shaft coupled to planet gears of the planetary gearset via a carrier. A constant torsion spring is coupled to a ring gear of the planetary gearset.

Abstract: A device configured to emulate image mapping in a correlithm object processing system comprises a memory and one or more processors. The memory stores a correlithm object mapping table configured with multiple source image elements and multiple corresponding target correlithm objects. The processors receive an input image element comprising an n-pixel array of binary values and determine n-dimensional distances between the input image element and each of the source image elements. The processors then identify a source image element with the closest determined n-dimensional distance. The processors determine whether a deviation between the input image element and the identified source image element is within a predetermined tolerance. The processors identify a target correlithm object corresponding to the identified source image and determine a perturbation to be applied to the identified target correlithm object based on the determined deviation.

Abstract: The self-locking guillotine door assembly includes a door, a locking mechanism attached to the door, and a cable attached to the locking mechanism. Pulling the cable releases the locking mechanism and lifts the locking mechanism and door. Pushing up on the bottom of the door locks the locking mechanism and resists lifting the door. The locking mechanism can include a post, a vertical slide with a slot, connector bars and cams such that when the cable is pulled, the cable lifts the vertical slide to lift proximal ends of the connector bars, which pivots the cams to release the locking mechanism. When the enclosure door is pushed up from the bottom, the locking mechanism pivots the cams towards the top of the enclosure door to lock the locking mechanism and resist lifting of the enclosure door.

Abstract: In a semiconductor device, a boundary area is between an IGBT region and a diode region. In other words, the boundary region is at a position adjacent to the diode region. The boundary region has a lower ratio of formation of a high-concentration P-type layer than the IGBT region. Accordingly, during recovery, hole injection from the IGBT region to the diode region can be inhibited. The reduced ratio of formation of the high-concentration P-type layer in the boundary region also reduces the amount of hole injection from the high-concentration P-type layer of the boundary region. Thus, it inhibits an increase in maximum reverse current during the recovery, and also decreases the carrier density on the cathode side to inhibit an increase in tail electrical current, so that the semiconductor device reduces switching loss and is highly resistant to recovery destruction.
