Abstract: A method for fabricating sub-lithographic sized line and space features is
disclosed. The method includes the use of conventional microelectronics processing
techniques such as photolithographic patterning and etching, polysilicon deposition,
polysilicon oxidation, polysilicon oxide etching, polysilicon wet and plasma etching, and
chemical mechanical planarization. Polysilicon line features 21 having a feature size that
is greater than or equal to a lithography limit λ are oxidized in a plasma that includes an
oxygen gas. The oxidation forms a sub-lithographic sized polysilicon core and an oxidized
polysilicon mantel  22  that includes portions along sidewall surfaces of the sub-lithographic
sized polysilicon core that also have a sub-lithographic feature size. After planarization
and a plasma etch that is selective to either the polysilicon or the oxidized polysilicon, a
plurality of sub-lithographic sized line  21  and space  20  patterns are formed. Those line
and space patterns  (21, 20)  can be used for an imprinting stamp for nano-imprint
lithography.

Title: Conception d'aeronef et aile interne d'aeronef
Inventor: CARR ROBERT JONATHAN
IPC: B64C39/06
Filed: 2003-01-14
Abstract: L'invention concerne un aéronef conçu avec trois ailes situées sur un des côtés du fuselage. L'aile avant forme un angle vers le bas et elle est pourvue de surface supérieure et inférieure incurvées. L'aile supérieure est située vers l'arrière de l'aéronef et au-dessus de l'aile avant. L'aile inférieure est située en dessous de l'aile supérieure et légèrement en avant. Ladite aile inférieure est également située à l'arrière de l'aéronef et en dessous de l'aile avant. Les extrémités extérieures des trois ailes viennent en contact au niveau d'un point donné. L'aile avant utilise l'effet coanda pour augmenter le flux d'air sur la surface supérieure de l'aile inférieure. L'aéronef selon l'invention peut être conçu suffisamment grand pour transporter des personnes et/ou des cargaisons, ou suffisamment petit pour être utilisé comme jouet. La conception d'aéronef selon l'invention peut intégrer tout type de moteur d'aéronef utilisé de nos jours. Un mode de réalisation de l'aéronef selon l'invention comporte deux turbines, couplées par l'intermédiaire d'un arbre à une source d'alimentation, et disposées sur un des côtés de l'extrémité avant du fuselage. Une partie de la poussée de chaque moteur est déviée et dirigée par une boîte de répartition disposée à l'intérieur du coanda, en direction des deux côtés du fuselage, de sorte qu'une quantité égale de poussée passe à travers le conduit et sur les ailes situées sur un des côtés du fuselage. Cela produit une portance égale sur le coanda et sur les deux ailes situées sur un des côtés du fuselage, au cas où un moteur serait défaillant.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de transport de lait (100) conçu pour un animal. Ce dispositif de transport de lait est destiné à être mis en oeuvre dans un système de traite comprenant un réservoir de stockage de lait (101) qui est accouplé à un élément de traite à fixer destiné à être fixé sur l'animal à traire, par l'intermédiaire d'un conduit de lait principal (103, 105). Un élément d'échantillonnage (109, 111) extrait le lait qui est recueilli dans un réservoir à échantillons (115, 117). Le réservoir à échantillons (115, 117) est relié à un élément d'analyse (129) par l'intermédiaire d'un conduit d'analyse (123, 125). Lorsque le lait s'écoule du réservoir à échantillons vers l'élément d'analyse (129), il exerce une action nettoyante. Cet écoulement s'effectue initialement à une vitesse élevée puis à une vitesse réduite. Plusieurs conduits d'analyse (123, 125) sont reliés à l'élément d'analyse (129), qui comprend une unité de sélection (127) servant à faire passer le lait d'un des conduits d'analyse (123, 125) dans l'élément d'analyse (129). Le dispositif selon l'invention est autonettoyant et permet de réduire le risque de contamination du lait entre deux opérations de traite successives, à savoir entre deux traites de deux animaux différents.
