Abstract: Methods of the disclosure include a BN ALD process at low temperatures using a reactive nitrogen precursor, such as thermal N2H4, and a boron containing precursor, which allows for the deposition of ultra thin (less than 5 nm) films with precise thickness and composition control. Methods are self-limiting and provide saturating atomic layer deposition (ALD) of a boron nitride (BN) layer on various semiconductors and metallic substrates.

Abstract: A suture anchor device and method for attaching soft tissue to bone includes an anchor body and a suture locking wedge movably disposed within the anchor body. The suture locking wedge includes lateral portions which engage slots or windows in the anchor body. Tension applied to one limb of a suture causes the suture locking wedge to translate and rotate to a position which compresses the suture, thereby locking the suture in the anchor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to photoresist compositions comprising a base resin such as a monomer capable of radical polymerization upon photoinitiation, and photoinitiator molecules such as a diketone, and multicolor photolithography methods. Photoresist compositions comprise photoinitiator molecules that are exposed to a first radiation source, thereby exciting the photoinitiator molecules from a ground state to a pre-activated state. The pre-activated state molecules are then exposed to a second radiation source in selected locations, thereby deactivating the pre-activated state molecules in the selected locations. Any remaining pre-activated state molecules are exposed to a third radiation source, exciting such remaining pre-activated state photoinitiator molecules to an activated state. Polymerization of the base resin is then initiated.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes a knotless suture anchoring system for anchoring a suture with respect to a body cavity, including a bone anchor body with at least one rigid anchoring structure to secure the anchor body within the body cavity. The anchor body has a longitudinal bore and cross-pin extending across the bore. A retention member is coupled to the anchor body with a break notch therebetween, which may selectively fracture to separate the body from the retention member. Additionally there is a suture cutout on the retention member and a relief feature positioned along the break notch and approximately diametrically opposed from the suture cutout, the relief feature acting to alter the force dissipation along the break notch during the separation of the retention member from the anchor body.

Abstract: A suture anchor device and method for attaching soft tissue to bone includes an anchor body and a suture locking wedge movably disposed within the anchor body. Tension applied to one side of a suture causes the suture locking wedge to translate and rotate into a position which compresses the suture, thereby locking the suture in the anchor. A resilient or spring biasing member within the anchor device urges the suture locking wedge to compress the suture, facilitating suture locking.

Abstract: A suture anchor device and method for attaching soft tissue to bone includes an anchor body and a suture locking wedge movably disposed within the anchor body. Tension applied to one side of a suture causes the suture locking wedge to move in a translational and angular dimension to a position which compresses the suture, thereby locking the suture in the anchor. The anchor body includes tracks or slots which guide the suture locking wedge from the unlocked open configuration to the locked configuration.

Abstract: A suture anchor apparatus and method for anchoring a length of suture with respect to a target tissue has an anchor body with an anchoring structure for fixing the anchor body within the target tissue and a suture locking member. The moveable suture locking member is disposed at least partially within an anchor body lumen while a portion of the length of suture is looped around the suture locking member such that a first and second limb of suture exits the lumen. A suture locking member includes at least two elongate arms, and each arm has an extension dimension respectively, such that the first arm extension dimension is substantially greater than the second arm extension dimension.

Abstract: A system for electronic trading enables users to trade financial instruments by displaying information relating to financial instruments in a market-centered manner, tracking user selections of price and quantity of contracts for the financial instrument, and initiating placement of a user-specified order as the market changes. The system includes a user system that communicates market information to a user via a display. The display includes a price column for dynamically communicating market prices and an order area. The order area includes indicators that identify the prices in the price column representing the market, and order selection blocks that enable a user to identify a price and/or quantity for tracking or for placing an order. Once identified, the system tracks the price and quantity as the price changes with the market so that a user may command the system to initiate placement of an order for the identified price and quantity.

Abstract: Disclosed are products, such as door panels and doors, made using a thin-layer lignocellulose composite that includes a region of increased thickness to provide at least one raised surface, such that the surface comprises the appearance of wooden planking and/or wooden trim. The raised surface may be provided by a lignocellulose composite plant-on structure, and/or by cutting grooves in the surface of the thin-layer lignocellulose composite. The plant-on structures and/or grooves may be positioned so that a multi-paneled door has the appearance of single-panel door. Processes for forming such door panels and doors are also disclosed.

Abstract: A fire-retardant mattress that compartmentalizes bedding material between layers of fire-resistant material. The mattress includes an inner support compartment, a first layer of fire-resistant material adjacent to at least one side of the inner support compartment, at least one layer of cushioning material adjacent to the first layer of fire-resistant material, and a second layer of fire-resistant material adjacent to the at least one cushioning layer, the second layer of fire-resistant material distal to the first layer of fire-resistant material.

Abstract: A system and process for forming absorbent structures is disclosed. Also disclosed are absorbent structures suitable for incorporation into absorbent products, such as diapers, a training pant, adult incontinence products, feminine hygiene products, and the like. The absorbent structures include particularly shaped openings and a pair of opposing lateral flaps. When the lateral flaps are folded, the lateral flaps in conjunction with the openings form an absorbent structure having a high basis weight area in a desired location. The absorbent structures can be formed from a web having a uniform basis weight and may be formed without having to scarf the absorbent web as was required in many prior processes. In order to form the openings, masking members may be attached to a forming surface in an air forming process. The masking members are convertable for forming gender specific products if desired.
