Abstract: This specification discloses methods of enhancing the stability and performance of Eu2+ doped narrow band red emitting phosphors. In one embodiment the resulting phosphor compositions are characterized by crystallizing in ordered structure variants of the UCr4C4 crystal structure type and having a composition of AE1?xLi3?2yAl1+y?zSizO4?4y?zN4y+z:Eux (AE=Ca, Sr, Ba, or a combination thereof, 0<x<0.04, 0?y<1, 0<z<0.05, y+z?1). It is believed that the formal substitution (Al,O)+ by (Si,N)+ reduces the concentration of unwanted Eu3+ and thus enhances properties of the phosphor such as stability and conversion efficiency.

Abstract: Disclosed is a dunnage apparatus, including a converting station and a deflector. The converting station converts a line of high-density supply material into low-density dunnage and ejects the dunnage at an exit in an exit trajectory along a path. The deflector is repositionable with respect to the exit between a first position, in which the deflector is interposed in the path to deflect the path of the dunnage from the exit trajectory to a first deflected trajectory, and a second position. The deflector is retained in each position during the ejection of the dunnage.
Abstract: Disclosed herein a stitch-bonded fabric comprising at least one fibrous web layer having a plurality of the fibers with a first length of more than about 25 mm, oriented substantially in a cross-direction (XD) of the stitch-bonded fabric wherein a density of the at least one fibrous web layer is less than about 0.12 g/cm3. The at least one fibrous web layer is stitch-bonded with yarns following a pattern of linear stitches along a machine direction (MD) spaced from about 1.4 mm to about 4.0 mm along XD, and repeating with a spacing front about 0.8 mm to about 2.5 mm in MD, wherein the plurality of fibers having said first length are captured by multiple stitches. A density of fibers and yarn enclosed within the stitches is above about 0.10 g/cm3 and below about 5.0 g/cm3 and the linear stiches are depressed below exposed the wales between the linear stitches along MD. The stitch-bonded yarns can be heat set to stabilize the stitch-bonded fabric.
Abstract: Systems, methods, articles of manufacture, and computer-readable media. A server may receive a phone call and generate a uniform resource locator (URL) comprising a session identifier for an account. The server may transmit the URL to a client device. The server may receive, from a web browser, a request comprising the URL. The server may determine that the session identifier in the URL of the request matches the session identifier for the account, and transmit, to the web browser, a web page at the URL. The server may receive, from the web browser, a cryptogram read by the web page via a card reader of the client device and decrypt the cryptogram. The server may authenticate the identity of the caller for the call based on decrypting the cryptogram and the session identifier of the URL matching the session identifier of the account.
Abstract: A wireless device receives configuration parameters of: one or more first cells in a first frequency band; and one or more second cells in a second frequency band. A physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) signal in the first frequency band is transmitted via the one or more first cells. The wireless device determines, independent of transmissions of the PUSCH signals in the first frequency band, whether to transmit or to drop a configured transmission of at least one sounding reference signal (SRS) via the one or more second cells of the second frequency band. The configured transmission of the at least one SRS overlaps with the PUSCH signal. Based on the determination: the at least one SRS are transmitted via a second cell of the one or more second cells; or the at least one SRS is dropped.
Abstract: An ionic redox transistor comprises a solid channel, a solid reservoir layer, and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the channel and the reservoir layer. The channel exhibits a substantially linear current-voltage relationship in a first range of voltages, and a nonlinear current-voltage relationship in a second range of voltages that is greater than the first range of voltages. One or both of the substantially linear current-voltage relationship or the nonlinear current-voltage relationship of the channel is varied by changing the concentration of ions such as oxygen vacancies in the channel. Ion or vacancy transport between the channel and the reservoir layer across the electrolyte layer occurs in response to applying a voltage between the channel and the reservoir layer. Subject to the first range of voltages, the channel can function as a synapse device. Subject to the second range of voltages, the channel can function as a neuron device.

Abstract: The Cannabis cultivar ‘POI’ can be briefly characterized by massive purple, white, green, and yellow streaking resin-coated flowers. With massive flower clusters and very short internodal space, this cultivar is able to produce very high yields for both flower and hash production.
Abstract: A new and distinct Petunia plant named ‘WGPESMVYEL’, characterized by its upright to outwardly spreading and mounding to eventually trailing and decumbent plant habit; vigorous growth habit and rapid growth rate; freely branching habit; dense and bushy plant form; early and freely flowering habit; single-type flowers that are bright yellowish green in color with darker yellowish green-colored throats and venation; and excellent container and garden performance.
