  • Publication number: 20120234082
    Abstract: Systems and methods for supporting a liquid against a vacuum pressure in a chamber can enable analysis of the liquid surface using vacuum-based chemical analysis instruments. No electrical or fluid connections are required to pass through the chamber walls. The systems can include a reservoir, a pump, and a liquid flow path. The reservoir contains a liquid-phase sample. The pump drives flow of the sample from the reservoir, through the liquid flow path, and back to the reservoir. The flow of the sample is not substantially driven by a differential between pressures inside and outside of the liquid flow path. An aperture in the liquid flow path exposes a stable portion of the liquid-phase sample to the vacuum pressure within the chamber. The radius, or size, of the aperture is less than or equal to a critical value required to support a meniscus of the liquid-phase sample by surface tension.

  • Patent number: 8190936
    Abstract: The method for maximizing an unavailability interval includes the steps of initializing the starting frame number of each power saving class fi to 1 and adjusting fi to fi? when the least common multiple of m1, m2, . . . , mi?1 and mi is not relatively prime. The index i is an integer from 1 to t, mi is the sleep cycle of the ith power saving class, and fi? is an integer that maximizes common sleep windows of the i power saving classes. The common sleep windows of the t power saving classes are then set as the maximum unavailability interval of the wireless telecommunication device.

  • Publication number: 20120057410
    Abstract: Various aspects of a nonvolatile memory have an improved erase suspend procedure. A bias arrangement is applied to word lines of an erase sector undergoing an erase procedure interrupted by an erase suspend procedure. As a result, another operation performed during erase suspend, such as a read operation or program operation, has more accurate results due to decreased leakage current from any over-erased nonvolatile memory cells of the erase sector.
