Patent number: 9293302Abstract: A method and device for processing a gas by forming microwave plasmas of the gas. The gas that is to be processed is set in a two or three co-axial vortex flow inside the device and exposed to a microwave field to form the plasma in the inner co-axial vortex flow, which subsequently is expelled as a plasma afterglow through an outlet of the device.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2014Date of Patent: March 22, 2016Assignee: GasPlas ASInventors: Philip John Risby, Dale Pennington

Patent number: 8230451Abstract: A compliance interface is disclosed that takes in queries from applications which may want to know if they are compliant with associated polices stored on a computing system. The interface can then interpret these queries and provide notifications and instructions to the applications. Notifications may give notice of how a policy may impact an application, and instructions may tell an application how to behave in order to stay compliant with the policies. In one aspect, the interface exposes policies set forth by parents. Via a management control panel, parents can set or alter various policies, stored in a settings store, to protect children from contact with undesirable content. The interface interprets these policies to ensure that applications, such as those provided by third party vendors, are compliant with the wishes set forth in the parents' policies.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2010Date of Patent: July 24, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Aaron Culbreth, Keumars A. Ahdieh, II, Peter M. Wiest, Roderick M. Toll, Roger H. Wynn, Stan Dale Pennington, Timothy Arthur Gill

Patent number: 5186621Abstract: A modified quartz element having plasma and auxiliary gas ports, a upper chimney mount, a unique chimney holder and injection tube mount, and a compression plug is disclosed. The chimney holder and injection tube mount includes a specially machined groove so that a unique, double O-ring seal between the mount and the quartz element may be developed. The injection tube mount also includes a specially designed bore for receiving two O-rings so that the injector tube is supported in and sealed with the mount only through the use of resilient O-rings.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 1991Date of Patent: February 16, 1993Assignee: The Texas A & M University SystemInventor: H.
