Patent number: 7504127Abstract: An electrically conductive elastic composite yarn comprises an elastic member that is surrounded by at least one conductive covering filament(s). The elastic member has a predetermined relaxed unit length L and a predetermined drafted length of (N×L), where N is a number preferably in the range from about 1.0 to about 8.0. The conductive covering filament has a length that is greater than the drafted length of the elastic member such that substantially all of an elongating stress imposed on the composite yarn is carried by the elastic member. The elastic composite yarn may further include an optional stress-bearing member surrounding the elastic member and the conductive covering filament. The length of the stress-bearing member is less than the length of the conductive covering filament and greater than, or equal to, the drafted length (N×L) of the elastic member, such that a portion of the elongating stress imposed on the composite yarn is carried by the stress-bearing member.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2006Date of Patent: March 17, 2009Assignee: Textronics Inc.Inventors: Eleni Karayianni, Omero Consoli, George W.

Publication number: 20090035516Abstract: Disclosed are an organometallic precursor that may be used in manufacturing a semiconductor device, a thin film having the same, a metal wiring including the thin film, a method of forming a thin film and a method of manufacturing a metal wiring. An organometallic precursor including a central metal, a borohydride ligand and an amine ligand for reducing a polarity of the organometallic precursor may be provided onto a substrate, and may be thermally decomposed to form a thin film on the substrate. The organometallic precursor having a reduced polarity may be provided to a chamber with a constant flow rate, and thus stability and/or efficiency of a semiconductor manufacturing process may be improved.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 31, 2008Publication date: February 5, 2009Inventors: Youn-Joung Cho, Jung-Ho Lee, Jun-Hyun Cho, Seung-Min Ryu, Kyoo-Chul Cho, Jung-Sik Choi

Patent number: 7470554Abstract: A method of forming a stacking structure by forming an electroconductive layer precursor pattern by an electroconductive paste made of a resin component, electroconductive fine particles, and glass fine particles, forming a dielectric layer precursor pattern by a dielectric paste made of a resin component and glass fine particles, and simultaneously baking both of those patterns, wherein they are held for a predetermined time while keeping a baking temperature which is equal to or higher than a decomposing temperature of the resin component and is equal to or lower than a baking start temperature of the glass fine particles and, thereafter, their baking is completed at the baking temperature which is equal to or higher than the baking start temperature of the glass fine particles and is lower than its softening point. Thus, the occurrence of a void and a pin hole in an insulative layer can be prevented in the stacking structure after the baking.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2005Date of Patent: December 30, 2008Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Toru Sugeno

Publication number: 20080317947Abstract: At least one via comprising a bottom and side walls is formed in a layer of insulating material separating two layers of metallic material. A catalyst layer is then deposited. Then an inhibiting layer is formed by directional deposition on the walls of the via and on the insulating material layer, leaving only the part of the catalyst layer that is located in the bottom of the via free. Nanotubes are then formed in said via and electrically connect the two layers of metallic material.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 17, 2008Publication date: December 25, 2008Applicant: COMMISSARIAT A L'ENERGIE ATOMIQUEInventor: Jean-Christophe Coiffic
