Abstract: An apparatus for matching the variable impedance of a load with the fixed impedance of a radio frequency (RF) power generator to provide maximum power transfer. The impedance matching network further allows an RF power generator to vary the frequency of the voltage applied to a load, e.g., a plasma chamber as may be utilized in semiconductor or flat panel plasma display manufacturing processes. The impedance matching network further utilizes fixed solid state components to adjust the impedance of the attached load to provide maximum power transfer between the generator and the load. A parallel switched capacitor network is controlled by an electrical switching means such as PIN diodes to turn fixed capacitors on or off. A means for varying the frequency of the applied voltage is used to match the impedance of the load with the impedance of the RF power generator within milliseconds.

Abstract: Disclosed is a solid (e.g., cream, such as semi-solid or soft solid) cosmetic composition containing an active cosmetic material (e.g., a deodorant active, an antiperspirant active, a sunscreen, an insect repellent and/or an anti-fungal agent), volatile (e.g., cyclomethicone) and linear chain (e.g., dimethicone and/or phenyl trimethicone) silicone materials, and at least one gelling agent. The at least one gelling agent includes hexanediol-behenyl beeswax, and is included in the composition in an amount sufficient to provide the solid composition. By incorporating the hexanediol-behenyl beeswax as a gelling agent, conventional gelling agents such as fatty alcohols and hydrogenated castor oil need not be incorporated in the composition. When an antiperspirant active material is incorporated in the solid composition containing hexanediol-behenyl beeswax as a gelling agent, a solid antiperspirant composition that is efficacious and leaves no visible (white) residue, can be achieved.

Abstract: A system is provided for processing articles in a warehousing or merchandising operation wherein information bearing electronically coded labels are attached to the articles to be processed. The system uses the principle of electromagnetic communication in which an interrogator containing a transmitter generates an electromagnetic signal which is transmitted to electronic labels containing label receiving antennas. The electronic labels are attached to articles as they are processed. Each label antenna receives a proportion of the transmitted energy and operates a reply generation circuit connected either to the label receiving antenna or a separate label reply antenna with the result that an information bearing electromagnetic reply signal is radiated by the label.
