Abstract: Disclosed herein are radio frequency (RF) front-end structures, as well as related methods and devices. In some embodiments, an RF front-end package may include an RF package substrate including an embedded passive circuit element. At least a portion of the embedded passive circuit element may be included in a metal layer of the RF package substrate. The RF package substrate may also include a ground plane in the metal layer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are integrated circuit (IC) structures that may be included in package substrates. For example, disclosed herein are passive components in package substrate, wherein the passive components include at least one non-circular via and at least one pad in contact with the at least one non-circular via, and the passive components include an inductor or a capacitor. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are antenna boards, antenna modules, and communication devices. For example, in some embodiments, an antenna board may include a plurality of antenna patches coupled to a dielectric material and a plurality of pedestals extending from a face of the dielectric material and at least partially embedded in the dielectric material.

Abstract: Compositions for forming a silicone elastomer and the silicone elastomers thereby which have improved characteristics and which can be used for medical devices are disclosed. The composition for forming a silicone elastomer can include (A) an organopolysiloxane having silicon-bonded alkenyl groups; (B) an organohydrogensiloxane having an average of two or more silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in the molecule; (C) an inorganic filler; and (D) a filler treatment agent which includes an alkenyl-containing group, e.g., an alkenyl-containing organosilane or organosilazane.

Abstract: A flooring product has multiple planar single piece substrate components, each with opposing straight longitudinal and lateral edges. A first lateral edge of a second of the substrate components abuts a first lateral edge of a first of the substrate components to form a common seam. The first and second of the substrate components are adjacent relative to a sequential array of multiple substrate components running parallel to the pair of longitudinal edges. The product has a pair of laminate component affixed to each side of each of the substrate components continuously over the sequential array thereof. The laminate components strengthen the product in relation to bearing a load applied to the second surface thereof and each of the common seams. The flooring product may be cut to lengths for accommodating overall lengths of recreational vehicles, trailers or manufactured housing units and thus reduces manufacturing costs associated therewith.

Abstract: A locking device for a component having at least one and preferably two threaded fasteners is provided. The device includes a first clamping section configured to be secured around a first threaded fastener, and a second clamping section at a spaced location from the first clamping section arranged to be secured around a further element relative to which the first fastener is rotational. The second element may be a second threaded fastener, or a fixed feature such as the body of a pipe coupling. A bridging element is also provided that connects the two clamping sections and prevents rotation of the first and second clamping sections relative to each other. The clamping sections are configured to surround, compress and/or deform against the circumferential surface of a part of the fastener, which may be a nut or a bolt head, such that the clamping section is rotationally fixed relative to the fastener.

Abstract: An adjustable mandibular repositioning appliance including first and second connecting members and a link arm which is pivotable about an axis wherein protrusive positioning of the mandible is provided by relative positioning of the link arm along aid axis, to kits and couplings for making a readily adjustable mandibular appliance, to a system for providing a readily adjustable mandibular repositioning appliance and methods of use.
