  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PURGING A BEARING AND BEARING HOUSING
    Publication number: 20130068253
    Abstract: A system and method for heating a purging fluid contained in a portable oil sump or reservoir, and pumping the hot purging fluid through a bearing housing in order to purge the bearing and bearing housing of accumulated hardened grease, sludge, and debris. The heated purging fluid can then be suctioned into the sump or reservoir, screened and filtered, and re-circulated through bearing housing to continue purging the bearing and bearing housing.

  • Electroluminescent device comprising porous silicon
    Publication number: 20020096688
    Abstract: An electroluminescent device (10) comprises a porous silicon region (22) adjacent a bulk silicon region (20), together with a top electrical contact (24) of transparent indium tin oxide and a bottom electrical contact (26) of aluminum. The device includes a heavily doped region (28) to provide an ohmic contact. The porous silicon region (22) is fabricated by anodizing through an ion-implanted surface layer of the bulk silicon. The silicon remains unannealed between the ion-implantation and anodization stages. The device (10) has a rectifying p-n junction within the porous silicon region (22).
