Abstract: Embodiments of a display device including barrier layer coated quantum dots and a method of making the barrier layer coated quantum dots are described. Each of the barrier layer coated quantum dots includes a core-shell structure and a hydrophobic barrier layer disposed on the core-shell structure. The hydrophobic barrier layer is configured to provide a distance between the core-shell structure of one of the quantum dots with the core-shell structures of other quantum dots that are in substantial contact with the one of the quantum dots. The method for making the barrier layer coated quantum dots includes forming reverse micro-micelles using surfactants and incorporating quantum dots into the reverse micro-micelles. The method further includes individually coating the incorporated quantum dots with a barrier layer and isolating the barrier layer coated quantum dots with the surfactants of the reverse micro-micelles disposed on the barrier layer.

Abstract: A proppant container facilitates the transportation of wet sand for use in a hydraulic fracturing operation. The proppant container is part of an overall system that is used to move sand for use as proppant, and is fitted with a vibration system that facilitates the discharge of sand from the container.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for configuring beam pair links during random access. A User Equipment (UE) receives, in a first message of a Random Access Channel (RACH) procedure, a request from a Base Station (BS) to report information relating to a plurality of BS beams. The UE reports, in a second message of the RACH procedure, the information relating to one or more of the plurality of BS beams in response to the request. The UE receives configuration information including information relating to one or more beam pair links configured for communication between the UE and the BS based on the reported information.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating a profile page. A computer system identifies a group of potential profiles images from an image. The computer system identifies a group of features in the image. The computer system generates the profile page based on a potential profile image selected from the group of potential profile images and the group of features in the image. The computer system displays the profile page on a display system, enabling generating the profile page.

Abstract: Automatically identifying context-specific repeated transformations (such as repeated edit tasks) that are based on observation of the developer drafting or modifying code. As the developer modifies the code, the code passes through a series of states, one after the other. The computing system observes the series of states of the code. It is based on this observation that the computing system identifies repeated transformations of the code for potentially offering to continue performing the repeated transformations for the user. This alleviates the developer from having to manually perform the remainder of the repeated transformations.

Abstract: This invention is directed to benzenesulfonamide compounds, as stereoisomers, enantiomers, tautomers thereof or mixtures thereof; or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates or prodrugs thereof, for the treatment of diseases or conditions associated with voltage-gated sodium channels, such as epilepsy and/or epileptic seizure disorders.

Abstract: A solid propellant rocket motor may comprise a core-burning propellant grain extending along a longitudinal axis of the solid propellant rocket motor between an exhaust end of the solid propellant rocket motor and a forward end of the solid propellant rocket motor, a first burn inhibitor layer surrounding the core-burning propellant grain, an end-burning propellant grain surrounding the first burn inhibitor layer, a second burn inhibitor layer surrounding the end-burning propellant grain, and an aperture at least partially defined by the first burn inhibitor layer. The end-burning propellant grain is ignited by the core-burning propellant grain via the aperture.

Abstract: A sensor for a separable connector comprises a plug body comprising an insulating resin, the plug body configured to be inserted into the separable connector to encase a high voltage conductor disposed in the separable connector. The sensor also includes one or more high voltage capacitors encased by the insulating resin and configured to be electrically coupled to the separable connector at a first end portion when the plug body is inserted and one or more low voltage capacitors electrically coupled in series to the one or more high voltage capacitors to form a capacitive voltage divider. The sensor also includes a low voltage connection configured to provide a low voltage signal corresponding to a high voltage signal present in the separable connector, the low voltage connection comprising a coaxial contact having a first metal contact and a second metal contact.

Abstract: A process of making a fuel product from a non-combustible high protein organic material such as a biological by-product or waste material. The moisture content of the high protein organic material is mechanically reduced and dried to reduce the moisture content to less than ten percent (10%). The high protein organic material is pulverized to a particle size of less than about 2 mm. The high protein organic waste material is fed into a combustion chamber and separated during combustion such as by spraying of the high protein organic waste material within the combustion chamber. Temperature and nitrogenous hydrocarbon combustion reactions within the combustion chamber are also controlled by injection of steam within the combustion chamber.

Abstract: An electronic device display may have a color filter layer and a thin film transistor layer. A layer of liquid crystal material may be interposed between the color filter layer and the thin film transistor layer. A layer of polarizer may be laminated onto the surface of the color filter layer. Laser trimming may ensure that the edges of the polarizer are even with the edges of the color filter layer. The thin film transistor layer may have an array of thin film transistors that control pixels of the liquid crystal material in the display. Driver circuitry may be used to control the array. The driver circuitry may be encapsulated in a planarized encapsulant on the thin film transistor layer or may be mounted to the underside of the color filter layer. Conductive structures may connect driver circuitry on the color filter layer to the thin film transistor layer.
