Patent number: 7687787Abstract: A method to provide a dopant profile adjustment solution in plasma doping systems for meeting both concentration and junction depth requirements. Bias ramping and bias ramp rate adjusting may be performed to achieve a desired dopant profile so that surface peak dopant profiles and retrograde dopant profiles are realized. The method may include an amorphization step in one embodiment.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2008Date of Patent: March 30, 2010Assignee: Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates, Inc.Inventors: Ludovic Godet, George D. Papasouliotis, Ziwei Fang, Richard Appel, Vincent Deno, Vikram Singh, Harold M. Persing

Patent number: 7569547Abstract: Small, polybasic peptides are disclosed that are effective as furin inhibitors, e.g. hexa- to nona-peptides having L-Arg or L-Lys in most positions. Removing the peptide terminating groups can improve inhibition of furin. High inhibition was seen in a series of non-amidated and non-acetylated polyarginines. The most potent inhibitor identified to date, nona-L-arginine, had a Ki against furin of 40 nM. Non-acetylated, poly-D-arginine-derived molecules are preferred furin inhibitors for therapeutic uses, such as inhibiting certain bacterial infections, viral infections, and cancers. Due to their relatively small size, these peptides should be non-immunogenic. These peptides are efficiently transported across cell membranes.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2006Date of Patent: August 4, 2009Assignees: Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College, Torrey Pines Institute for Molecular StudiesInventors: Iris Lindberg, Angus Cameron, Richard A. Houghten, Jon Richard Appel

Patent number: 7528389Abstract: A method and apparatus are directed to providing a dopant profile adjustment solution in plasma doping systems for meeting both concentration and junction depth requirements. Bias ramping and bias ramp rate adjusting may be performed to achieve a desired dopant profile so that shallow and abrupt junctions in vertical and lateral directions are realized that are critical to device scaling in plasma doping systems.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2006Date of Patent: May 5, 2009Assignee: Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates, Inc.Inventors: Ziwei Fang, Richard Appel, Vincent Deno, Vikram Singh, Harold M.

Patent number: 5628095Abstract: A jewelry clasp has a first and a second clasp member connected to one another for closing the clasp. At least the first clasp member has a spring-weighed element for achieving a fixation of a closed position of the clasp. The first clasp member has a first end portion with a first end face and further has a first receiving opening extending transverse to the longitudinal extension of the first clasp member. The second clasp member has a second end portion with a second end face and further has a second receiving opening extending transverse to a longitudinal extension of the second clasp member. The first receiving opening is oriented oppositely to the second receiving opening. The first and the second end portions are insertable into one another such that in a closed position of the clasp the spring-weighed element is forced against the second end face of the second clasp member.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 1995Date of Patent: May 13, 1997Assignee: Galileo Vision AGInventors: Richard Appel, Eginhard Wichelhaus
