Title: Deployable mandrel for downhole measurements
Inventor: FERGUSON STUART E
IPC: E21B47/12
Filed: 2004-03-08
Abstract: The disclosed apparatus comprises a phase fraction meter and a compliant mandrel deployable within a production pipe, and may further comprise a flow velocity meter. The mandrel allows the determination of the phase fraction for a fluid comprising three phases by providing an additional cross sectional compliance within the conduit, thereby allowing the density of the fluid to be determined. The mandrel also provides a specified blockage through the flow velocity meter, thereby increasing flow velocity through the meter. This allows flow rate measurements in conditions under which flow velocity in the under-restricted cross-sectional area of the pipe would normally be very low. Further, the mandrel can provide a specified restriction in the pipe, i.e., a venturi.  By measuring the differential pressure across the venturi and utilizing the measured fluid velocity from the flow velocity meter, the density of the fluid mixture can be calculated.  This calculated density can be used in conjunction with other measurements to determine phase fractions or to double check or to calibrate the phase fraction meter.  The mandrel can be deployed without removing the meter from the conduit, allowing for easy adaptation to changing flow parameters and fluid compositions.

Title: Micro-optic device and method of manufacturing same
Inventor: HAMADA YOSHIHIKO
IPC: B81B3/00
Filed: 2004-09-15
Abstract: A micro-optic device including a complicate structure and a movable mirror is made to be manufactured in a reduced length of time. A silicon substrate 42 and a single crystal silicon device layer 43 with an intermediate layer 41 of silicon dioxide interposed therebetween defines a substrate 31 on which a layer 44 of mask material is formed (Fig. 14A) and is patterned to form a mask 45 having the same pattern as the configuration of the intended optical device as viewed in plan view. A surface which is to be constructed as a mirror surface is chosen to be (100) plane of the silicon crystal. Using the mask 45, the device layer 43 is vertically etched by a reactive ion dry etching until the intermediate layer 41 is exposed (Fig.  14C).    Subsequently, using KOH solution, a wet etching which is anisotropic to the crystallographic orientation is performed with an etching rate which is on the order of 0.1 µm/min for a time interval on the order of ten minutes is performed to convert the sidewall surface of the mirror 4 into a smooth crystallographic surface (100). Subsequently, the intermediate layer 41 is selectively subject to a wet etching to remove the intermediate layer 41 only in an area located below the movable part of the optical device (Fig. 14D).
