Abstract: A system for search result visualisation is disclosed. The system includes a display page configured to display the search result corresponding to a search request received from a user. The display page includes a designated display window including a display area configured to display a portion of a document from a source document, wherein the source document is corresponding to the search result. The designated display window also includes a graphical control element located adjacent to the display area in the designated display window, wherein the graphical control element is configured to control movement of the portion of the document in the display area to display a predefined preceding portion or a predefined succeeding portion of the source document.

Abstract: A fuel cell is disclosed with a self-regulated oxygen supply used in conjunction with a self-pumping fuel supply (e.g., a self-pumping anode). The cathode side of the fuel cell includes a gas diffusion electrode interposed between the fuel chamber and the oxidant chamber (e.g., H2O2), the gas diffusion electrode having a catalyst layer formed thereon. An oxygen gas capturing substrate is disposed in the oxidant chamber and is spaced apart from the gas diffusion electrode. The gas capturing substrate has first and second sides containing a plurality of holes extending there between. The first side of the substrate faces the oxidant and the second side faces the gas diffusion electrode. The substrate contains a catalyst on the second side of the substrate or within an inner surface of the holes.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a computer implemented method of facilitating evaluation of visual appeal of a combination of two or more objects. The method may include presenting a user-interface to enable a user to perform a first identification of one or more first objects and a second identification of one or more second objects. Further, the method may include retrieving one or more first images of the one or more first objects based on the first identification. Additionally, the method may include retrieving one or more second images of the one or more second objects based on the second identification. Furthermore, the method may include creating a combination image based on each of the one or more first images and the one or more second images. The combination image may represent a virtual combination of each of the one or more first objects and the one or more second objects.

Abstract: Systems and methods for forming an encapsulated device include a substantially hermetic seal which seals a device in an environment between two substrates. The substantially hermetic seal is formed by an alloy of two metal layers, one having a lower melting temperature than the other. The metal layers may be deposited two substrates, along with a raised feature formed under at least one of the metal layers. The two metals may form an alloy of a predefined stoichiometry in at least two locations on either side of the midpoint of the raised feature. The formation of the alloy may be improved by the use of an organic wetting layer adjacent to the lower melting temperature metal. Design guidelines are set forth for reducing or eliminating the leakage of molten metal into the areas adjacent to the bondlines.

Abstract: A method for forming through substrate vias (TSVs) in a non-conducting, glass substrate is disclosed. The method involves patterning a silicon template substrate with a plurality of lands and spaces, bonding a slab or wafer of glass to the template substrate, and melting the glass so that it flows into the spaces formed in the template substrate. The template substrate may then be removed to leave a plurality of TSVs in the glass slab or wafer.

Abstract: An electrostatically driven high-speed micro droplet switch includes a substrate having an upper surface containing one or more signal electrodes that are selectively connected via a droplet. The switch includes at least one actuation electrode disposed beneath the upper surface of the substrate, the at least one actuation electrode operatively coupled to drive circuitry. The switch includes a frame disposed on or above the upper surface of the substrate that is configured to hold the droplet in substantially the same location during operation of the switch. In one aspect, the frame is configured to absorb variations in the volume of the droplet placed on the switch, leaving the active meniscus not affected by the variation in volume.
