  • Three dimensional memory
    Patent number: 11949022
    Abstract: A method to fabricate a three dimensional memory structure may include creating a stack of layers including a conductive source layer, a first insulating layer, a select gate source layer, and a second insulating layer, and an array stack. A hole through the stack of layers may then be created using the conductive source layer as a stop-etch layer. The source material may have an etch rate no faster than 33% as fast as an etch rate of the insulating material for the etch process used to create the hole. A pillar of semiconductor material may then fill the hole, so that the pillar of semiconductor material is in electrical contact with the conductive source layer.

  • Wearable Hydraulic System And Shock Absorbing Device For Reducing Forces Due To Impact
    Publication number: 20240049828
    Abstract: A novel liquid-based system and shock absorber for reducing the forces experienced during high-energy impacts is provided. Individual shock absorbing devices can be used in parallel or in series to create a tunable network that is based on the specific energy absorption requirements for each application. Each shock absorbing device consists of a flexible, primary fluid-filled reservoir that, when impacted, ejects the liquid at high pressure through an array of orifices into a secondary flexible, low-pressure collection reservoir, where it is temporarily stored before the liquid returns to the primary reservoir where the device is ready for the next impact. Optionally, the shock absorbing device may be a single-use device, where the liquid ejects from but does not return to the reservoir.

  • POWER CONTROLLER COMMUNICATION LATENCY MITIGATION
    Publication number: 20220365580
    Abstract: In controlling power in a portable computing device (“PCD”), a power supply input to a PCD subsystem may be modulated with a modulation signal when an over-current condition is detected. Detection of the modulation signal may indicate to a processing core of the subsystem to reduce its processing load. Compensation for the modulation signal in the power supply input may be applied so that the processing core is essentially unaffected by the modulation signal.

  • Quadruple butterfly coil
    Patent number: 10792508
    Abstract: Provided herein are embodiments of a Quadruple Butterfly Coil (QBC) configuration having enhanced focality for stimulation of specific areas of a brain for therapeutic treatment. Finite element simulations were conducted for the QBC, the QBC with a single shield, and the QBC with a double shield. The stimulation profiles for these coil configurations were assessed with 50 anatomically realistic MRI derived head models. The coils were positioned on the vertex and the scalp over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to stimulate the brain. Computer modeling of the coils was performed to determine volume of stimulation, maximum electric field, location of maximum electric field, and area of stimulation across all 50 head models for both coils.
