Patent number: 12182810Abstract: A customer interfacing with a credential manager may be enabled to request and obtain securely from the credential manager additional details related to a service transaction previously effected between the customer and a service provider using a customer transaction credential managed by the credential manager. To obtain such a detailed customer receipt for presentation to a customer, the credential manager may provide an authenticatable customer receipt request to the service provider that may include certain information indicative of an active session between the credential manager and an authenticated customer and/or certain information indicative of a trusted relationship between the credential manager and service provider. When a request is authenticated, the service provider may provide a detailed customer receipt to the credential manager in a format that may be presented to the customer but that may not be used by the credential manager to easily access details conveyed by the receipt.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2022Date of Patent: December 31, 2024Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Chunlai Ma, Eric J. Gray, Fei Gao, David L. Neumann, Xinyu Zhao

Publication number: 20020003006Abstract: The present invention is directed to an alloy for a high-performance rare earth permanent magnet. This alloy has a metallographic structure of approximately two phases that comprises a Nd2Fe14B phase (1) consisting of hard magnetic crystal grains and an &agr;-Fe phase (2) consisting of soft magnetic crystal grains. The metallographic structure has an ultra-thin film (3) that contains a large amount of nonmagnetic metallic elements that have an atomic radius of between the atomic radius of Fe and the atomic radius of Nd at each of the crystal grain boundaries between the phases (1, 2) and that will not form solid solutions with either Fe or Nd. The nonmagnetic metallic elements consist of one or two or more elements selected from among Nb, Zr, Ta and Hf, the thickness of each ultra-thin film is 10 to 20 angstroms, and the sizes of the crystal grains in each of the phases (1, 2) are in the range 5 to 100 nm, preferably 10 to 40 nm.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2001Publication date: January 10, 2002Inventors: Mutsuo Nishimoto, Tohru Kuwahara, Ken Kurabayashi, Atsushi Mikoshiba, Jiang Zhongliang, Changping Yang, Xiuyun Chen, Chunlai Ma, Jing Zhu
