Abstract: In some examples, a computer-readable medium stores executable code which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to obtain a threshold pulse rate that is based on an average pulse rate of a gamma radiation detector tool and on a desired probability that the threshold pulse rate will not be exceeded by the gamma radiation detector tool. The code also causes the processor to identify instances of pulse from the gamma radiation detector tool that do not exceed the threshold pulse rate, and output an indication of the identified instances of pulses for use in a measurement-while-drilling application.

Because there is a correlation between the second-order fabric azimuth tensor and the dielectric constant tensor of the ice crystals inside the ice sheet, the present disclosure obtains the dielectric constant tensor of each reflection layer inside the ice sheet and its rotation angle from the polarimetric radar echo signal by the layer-by-layer recursive method, and then calculates to obtain the characteristic value of the second-order fabric orientation tensor and identifies its fabric type. After that, according to the correlation among the fabric, stress deformation and the ice flow to extract the information of ice flow direction and its spatial distribution characteristics.

Abstract: Methods of elemental imaging of a formation include acquiring spectral gamma ray measurement, acquiring a total gamma ray image, deriving structure information of the formation from the total gamma ray image, and applying the structure information to the spectral gamma ray measurement to form an elemental image. In the present methods, the structure information of the formation is derived from comparing the total gamma ray logs for each azimuthal sector to a derived total gamma ray log. The derived total gamma ray log is acquired from the total gamma ray image by summing over all azimuth bins or the spectral gamma ray measurement by summing over all energy bins.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a method for regenerating a semi-regenerated reforming catalyst. The method comprises adjusting the reaction temperature to 250-480° C., introducing a sulfur-containing naphtha into the reforming reactor, or stopping introducing a feedstock into the reforming reactor, and introducing a sulfur-containing hydrogen into a recycle gas, until the sulfur content in the catalyst is 0.32-0.8 mass %, then the catalyst is subject to coke-burning, oxychlorination and reduction. Alternatively, the method first subjects the spent catalyst to coke-burning followed by introducing sulfate ions thereinto; and then performing oxychlorination and reduction. Disclosed is still another method for regenerating a platinum-rhenium reforming catalyst, which comprises coke-burning the spent catalyst; introducing sulfur and chlorine in the catalyst by impregnation; and then drying, calcinating and reducing.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a short-gate tunneling field effect transistor having a non-uniformly doped vertical channel and a fabrication method thereof. The short-gate tunneling field effect transistor has a vertical channel and the channel region is doped in such a slowly-varied and non-uniform manner that a doping concentration in the channel region appears as a Gaussian distribution along a vertical direction and the doping concentration in the channel near the drain region is higher while the doping concentration in the channel near the source region is lower; and double control gates are formed at both sides of the vertical channel and the control gates form an L-shaped short-gate structure, so that a gate underlapped region is formed in the channel near the drain region, and a gate overlapped region is formed at the source region.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a tunneling field effect transistor having a three-side source and a fabrication method thereof, referring to field effect transistor logic devices and circuits in CMOS ultra large scale integrated circuits (ULSI). By means of the strong depletion effect of the three-side source, the transistor can equivalently achieve a steep doping concentration gradient for the source junction, significantly optimizing the sub-threshold slope of the TFET. Meanwhile, the turn-on current of the transistor is boosted. Furthermore, due to a region uncovered by the gate between the gate and the drain, the bipolar conduction effect of the transistor is effectively inhibited, and on the other hand, in the small-size transistor a parasitic tunneling current at the corner of the source junction is inhibited. The fabrication method is simple and can be accurately controlled.
