Abstract: The pressure relief valve (40) comprises a piston (46) movable between open and closed positions, and a sealing ring (54) disposed in an annular groove (46-3) formed in an external surface of the piston so as to prevent leakage of pressurized gas along the external surface of the piston and by a internal passage (46-4). At least an opening (46-5) places the internal passage in communication with the annular groove radially inside the sealing ring in sight of a plate against a wall that surrounds the piston in order to stabilize during extraction of gas from the cylinder.  An Independent claim is included for a gas tap for a pressurized or liquefied gas cylinder.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite amplifier ( 500 ) based on a main amplifier ( 510 ) and an auxiliary amplifier ( 520 ), and compensation for non-linear amplifier behavior by means of respective non-linear models ( 570, 575 ) of parasitic. In order to provide proper excitation of the non-linear models, a filter network ( 560 ) based on a linear model of the output network of the composite amplifier is provided. The linear filter network ( 550 ) basically determines ideal output node voltages, which are used as input to the respective non-linear models for generating appropriate compensation signals. The compensation signals are finally merged into the input signals of the respective sub-amplifiers ( 510, 520 ), thus effectively compensating for the effects of the non-linear parasitics.

Abstract: Methods for forming the lower electrode of a capacitor in a semiconductor circuit, and the capacitors formed by such methods are provided. The lower electrode is fabricated by forming a texturizing underlayer and then depositing a conductive material thereover. In one embodiment of a method of forming the lower electrode, the texturizing layer is formed by depositing a polymeric material comprising a hydrocarbon block and a silicon-containing block, over the insulative layer of a container, and then subsequently converting the polymeric film to relief or porous nanostructures by exposure to UV radiation and ozone, resulting in a textured porous or relief silicon oxycarbide film. A conductive material is then deposited over the texturizing layer resulting in a lower electrode have an upper roughened surface. In another embodiment of a method of forming the lower electrode, the texturizing underlayer is formed by depositing overlying first and second conductive metal layers and annealing the metal layers to form surface dislocations, preferably structured as a periodic network. A conductive metal is then deposited in gaseous phase, and agglomerates onto the surface dislocations of the texturizing layer, forming nanostructures in the form of island clusters. The capacitor is completed by depositing a dielectric layer over the formed lower electrode, and forming an upper capacitor electrode over the dielectric layer. The capacitors are particularly useful in fabricating DRAM cells.
