Abstract: A silicon-and germanium-based molecular sieve has a framework chemical composition as represented by the formula “SiO2.1/nGeO2”. The silicon/germanium molar ratio is 0.1n30. The molecular sieve has a unique X-ray diffraction pattern. It can be used in adsorptive separation, ion exchange, and catalytic conversion of organic compounds.

Abstract: An electroplating method for enhancing the performance of rolled-up passive components comprises providing an array of rolled-up passive components on a substrate, where each rolled-up passive component comprises a multilayer strip in a rolled configuration including multiple turns spaced apart by gaps. The multilayer strip comprises a conductive pattern layer on a strain-relieved layer, and a core of each rolled-up passive component is defined by a first of the multiple turns. A layer comprising a functional material is electroplated onto the conductive pattern layer of each rolled-up passive component, thereby at least partly filling the gaps and/or the core with the functional material.

Abstract: A rolled-up electromagnetic component for on-chip applications comprises: a multilayer sheet in a rolled configuration comprising at least one turn about a longitudinal axis; a core defined by a first turn of the rolled configuration; and a soft magnetic material disposed within the core, where the multilayer sheet comprises a conductive pattern layer on a strain-relieved layer. A method of making a rolled-up electromagnetic component for on-chip applications includes forming a rolled-up device comprising: a multilayer sheet in a rolled configuration having at least one turn about a longitudinal axis, where the multilayer sheet comprises a conductive pattern layer on a strain-relieved layer; and a core defined by a first turn of the rolled configuration. The method further includes introducing a soft magnetic material into the core.
