Patent number: 9596536Abstract: The present application describes bone conduction microphone (BCM) systems and applications thereof. An example apparatus includes: (a) an enclosing structure having a cavity therein, wherein a first portion of the enclosing structure is formed by an elastic material, and wherein the elastic material is moveable to transfer vibration from an exterior source to gas within the cavity; and (b) a microphone coupled to the enclosing structure and located within the gas-filled cavity, wherein gas in the cavity separates the microphone from the first portion of the enclosing structure, such that the vibration transferred from the exterior source to the gas in the cavity is detectable by the microphone.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2015Date of Patent: March 14, 2017Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Farhad Farzbod, Michael Kai Morishita, Jianchun Dong, Richard Daniel Herr

Patent number: 6946736Abstract: Provided is a process for lithographically patterning a material on a substrate comprising the steps of (a) depositing a radiation sensitive material on the substrate by chemical vapor deposition; (b) selectively exposing the radiation sensitive material to radiation to form a pattern; and (c) developing the pattern using a supercritical fluid (SCF) as a developer. Also disclosed is a microstructure formed by the foregoing process. Also disclosed is a process for lithographically patterning a material on a substrate wherein after steps (a) and (b) above, the pattern is developed using a dry plasma etch. Also disclosed is a microstructure comprising a substrate; and a patterned dielectric layer, wherein the patterned dielectric layer comprises at least one two-dimensional feature having a dimensional tolerance more precise than 7%.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2002Date of Patent: September 20, 2005Assignees: Semiconductor Research Corporation, Cornell Research Foundation, Inc., Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyInventors: Karen K. Gleason, Christopher Ober, Daniel Herr

Publication number: 20050062036Abstract: Supermolecular structures and devices made from same. Semiconductor materials and devices are manufactured and provided which use controlled, discrete distribution of and positioning of single impurity atoms or molecules within a host matrix to take advantage of single charge effects. Single-dopant pn junctions and single-dopant bipolar cells are created. Each bipolar cell can function as a bistable device or an oscillator, depending on operating temperature. The cells can be used alone or in an array to make useful devices by adding an insulating substrate and contact electrodes.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2003Publication date: March 24, 2005Inventors: Daniel Herr, Victor Zhirnov
