Patent number: 9539788Abstract: Methods of fabricating complex three-dimensional structures on patterned substrates and related compositions are provided. The methods involve depositing on the substrate a block copolymer material that is “mismatched” to the substrate pattern, and then ordering the material to form a complex three-dimensional structure. According to various embodiments, the copolymer material mismatches the substrate pattern in that the symmetry and/or length scale of its bulk morphology differs from that of the pattern. When ordered, a balance between the physics that determines the bulk block copolymer morphology and the physics that determines the substrate surface interfacial interactions results in a thermodynamically stable complex three-dimensional film that varies in a direction perpendicular to the substrate and has a morphology that differs from its bulk morphology.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2013Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: Wisconsin Alumni Research FoundationInventors: Paul Franklin Nealey, Mark Petar Stoykovich, Konstantinos C. Daoulas, Marcus Muller, Juan J. De Pablo, SangMin Park

Patent number: 8930306Abstract: A system and method for data deduplication is presented. Data received from one or more computing systems is deduplicated, and the results of the deduplication process stored in a reference table. A representative subset of the reference table is shared among a plurality of systems that utilize the data deduplication repository. This representative subset of the reference table can be used by the computing systems to deduplicate data locally before it is sent to the repository for storage. Likewise, it can be used to allow deduplicated data to be returned from the repository to the computing systems. In some cases, the representative subset can be a proper subset wherein a portion of the referenced table is identified shared among the computing systems to reduce bandwidth requirements for reference-table synchronization.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2009Date of Patent: January 6, 2015Assignee: CommVault Systems, Inc.Inventors: David Ngo, Marcus Muller
