Patent number: 11935782Abstract: A method of forming a structure comprises forming a pattern of elongate features extending vertically from a base structure. Conductive material is formed on the elongate features. After completing the forming of the pattern of elongate features, the elongate features, the conductive material, or both is (are) exposed to at least one surface treatment gas. The at least one surface treatment gas comprises at least one species formulated to diminish attractive or cohesive forces at a surface of the conductive material. Apparatus and additional methods are also described.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Gurtej S. Sandhu, Marko Milojevic, John A. Smythe, Timothy A. Quick, Sumeet C. Pandey

Publication number: 20240074771Abstract: Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, engaging an interventional device of a catheter system with clot material in a blood vessel and withdrawing the interventional device and the portion of the clot material through a guide catheter. In some embodiments, the catheter system can include an attachment/valve member coupled to a proximal portion of the guide catheter, and the method can include unsealing the attachment/valve member to facilitate withdrawing the interventional device through the attachment/valve member without significant retention of clot material within the attachment/valve member. The method can further include resealing and aspirating the guide catheter before advancing another interventional device to the clot material to again engage and remove clot material from the blood vessel.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Richard Quick, Benjamin Edward Merritt, John Coleman Thress, Paul Lubock, Thomas M.

Patent number: 11918243Abstract: Systems and methods for removal of thrombus from a blood vessel in a body of a patient are disclosed herein. The method can include: providing a thrombus extraction device including a proximal self-expanding member formed of a unitary fenestrated structure, a distal substantially cylindrical portion formed of a net-like filament mesh structure, and an inner shaft member connected to a distal end of the net-like filament mesh structure; advancing a catheter constraining the thrombus extraction device through a vascular thrombus, deploying the thrombus extraction; retracting the thrombus extraction device to separate a portion of the thrombus from the vessel wall and to capture the portion of the thrombus within the net-like filament mesh structure; and withdrawing the thrombus extraction device from the body to remove thrombus from the patient.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Inari Medical, Inc.Inventors: Phil Marchand, John C. Thress, Jacob F. Louw, Brian J. Cox, Richard Quick

Publication number: 20070140621Abstract: A conductive, compliant, deformable boot for a fiber optic or other cable assembly is described, which both provides traditional cable strain relief functions and extends over the body of the connector to form an electrically conductive shield over the cable receptacle aperture when the cable assembly is plugged into the aperture. The boot deforms slightly upon insertion of the cable assembly and compresses against a mating component to form a shield against electrostatic discharge which can accumulate on the cable or card and also to shield against electromagnetic emissions entering or leaving the circuit card package. The boot also shields against emissions when two cable assemblies are mated together by deforming slightly upon mating and then returning to its original state when the assemblies are disconnected.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2005Publication date: June 21, 2007Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Casimer DeCusatis, John Quick

Patent number: 5551414Abstract: A direct vent gas baseboard heater has field installable concentric air intake tube and exhaust pipe. The intake pipe and exhaust tube can be cut separately from the remainder of the heater, improving the efficiency of installation. They can also be transported aligned with the remainder of the heater, reducing packaging size. The manufacturer can provide a single size of tube and pipe for a variety of installation situations. The tube connects to a base cabinet through a key hole configuration of tabs and cuts, and is twisted until the tabs meet stops in the base cabinet. An extrusion in an air box in the base cabinet is brought against a gasket on a flange of the tube, fixing the tube and sealing it with the air box. The exhaust tube has a threaded end and is threaded into an exhaust outlet in the air box, sealing it to a heat exchanger. A vent seal kit creates a seal assembly having a resiliently deformable ring seal extending into a wall sleeve with straps.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 1995Date of Patent: September 3, 1996Assignee: Hunter Energy and Technologies, Inc.Inventor: John Quick
