Title: Composite of a dispersed gel in an adhesive matrix and method for preparing same.
Inventor: ASMUS ROBERT A
IPC: A61L15/16
Filed: 1990-12-13
Abstract: A composite of a gel of swollen hydrocolloid dispersed in a pressure sensitive adhesive matrix is provided. The gel has a natural or synthetically derived hydrocolloid swollen with a non-volatile swelling agent, such that the gel may have a shear modulus of less than 6.2 x 10<6> dynes/cm<2>. The gel-adhesive composite has continued skin adhesion whether applied to or existing in dry or moist skin conditions. The gel contributes a high moisture vapor transmission rate to attempt to maintain dry skin conditions while the adhesive maintains skin adhesion. The gel-adhesive composite may be used in a variety of tape, dressing, bandage, drape, or other skin contacting usage and may optionally include antimicrobial agents to treat the skin while adhesion continues.

Title: EXTRACELLULAR SEGMENTS OF HUMAN -g(e) IMMUNOGLOBULIN ANCHORING PEPTIDES AND ANTIBODIES SPECIFIC THEREFOR.
Inventor: CHANG TSE WEN
IPC: C07K16/00
Filed: 1991-01-23
Abstract: Antigenic epitopes associated with the extracellular segment of the domain which anchors immunoglobulins to the B cell membrane are disclosed. For IgE, the epitopes are present on IgE-bearing B cells but not basophils or the secreted, soluble form of IgE. The epitope can be exploited for therapy and diagnosis. For example, antibodies or immunotoxins specific for the epitopes associated with the anchor domain of IgE can be used to selectiveley destroy or down-regulate IgE-bearing lymphocytes, thus blocking IgE-mediated allergic reactions. Three different isoformes of the C-terminal segment of the human  epsilon  chain resulting from alternative mRNA splicings in the membrane exon region are disclosed, one of which is secreted and not membrane-bound.

Title: Dispositif et procede de fabrication d'une structure stratifiee courbee
Inventor: SUSKA ALEX
IPC: B27M3/12
Filed: 1991-10-15
Abstract: L'invention décrit un dispositif (20) et un procédé servant à courber et à comprimer des structures stratifiées (64) en incurvations bi- ou tridimensionnelles. Le dispositif comprend une paire d'éléments de serrage rotatifs et éloignés l'un de l'autre (40) servant à serrer lesdites structures stratifiées (64) à des emplacements espacés. Au moins un des éléments de serrage (40) est mobile vers l'autre élément de serrage. La contre-rotation des éléments de serrage (40) courbe les structures stratifiées (64) retenues par lesdits éléments de serrage. La force de serrage d'au moins un des éléments de serrage (40) peut se réguler, de façon à pouvoir courber les structures stratifiées tout en autorisant un déplacement coulissant réciproque desdites structures stratifiées dans au moins un élément de serrage. Les structures stratifiées sont courbées en fonction d'un rayon supérieur au rayon souhaité. A ce niveau, la pression de serrage est augmentée, afin d'empêcher le déplacement coulissant réciproque, de façon que, lorsqu'on continue à courber les structures stratifiées, les couches extérieures sont comprimées contre les couches intérieures selon une force répartie de façon sensiblement égale le long de la section courbée desdites structures. Le dispositif s'adapte en fonction de la fabrication de formes et de dimensions différentes d'incurvations bi- ou tridimensionnelles.

Filed: 1992-03-27
Abstract: A process is described for forming planar tungsten-filled contacts to a silicon substrate (10) in contact openings (24) through an insulating layer (20) which provides for the formation of titanium silicide (32) in and on the silicon surface at the bottom of the contact openings (24) to provide low resistance silicide interconnections between the silicon substrate (10) and the tungsten (40). A titanium nitride layer (34,36,38) is formed over the titanium silicide (34) and on the surfaces of the insulation layer, including the top surface of the insulation layer (20) and the sidewall surfaces of the contact openings (24) through the insulating layer (20). This titanium nitride layer provides a nucleation layer which permits a good bond to form from the tungsten through the titanium nitride and titanium silicide in the contact openings to the silicon substrate; and from the tungsten through the titanium nitride layer to the insulator material such as silicon dioxide (SO₂), resulting in the formation of low resistance and low defect density contacts.

IPC: H01L21/302
Filed: 1992-06-02
Abstract: A dry etching method using no organic resist mask without involving an increase in the number of necessary processes or wafer surface steps. Conventionally, a nitrogen based compound film (6) is formed as a thin anti-reflection film on a gate electrode or aluminum (Al) metallization layer. The nitrogen based compound film (6) thus formed can be used as an etching mask for the material layer by using etching gas capable of forming sulfur (S) in a plasma when dissociated by electric discharges. For instance, a W polycide film (5) masked by a TiON anti-reflection film patterned into a predetermined shape can be etched by S₂F₂ / H₂ mixed gas. In this case, a nitrogen (N) dangling bond formed on the surface of the TiON anti-reflection film (6) combines with sulfur supplied by S₂F₂ to form a polythiazyl (SN) x  coating, which provides the resulting TiON anti-reflection film pattern (6) with a sufficient etching resistance to act as an etching mask. This etching process emits no carbon to the etching system, thus improving selectivity for a SiO₂ based material layer. The TiON anti-reflection film pattern (6) can also be used as an etching mask for an aluminum metallization layer with a view to reducing after-corrosion.

IPC: H01L27/10
Filed: 1992-08-20
Abstract: A technique for producing self-aligned contact openings is especially useful when the openings are to be made between conductive structures having relatively small separation. Formation of an oxide layer under particular process conditions results in a thicker layer of oxide on top of the conductive structures, and a thinner oxide layer along the sidewalls and in the bottom of the spacing between them. Deposition of such a differential thickness oxide layer can be followed by an unmasked-anisotropic etch in order to clear the oxide from the space between the conductive structures, without removing all of the oxide layer over the conductive structure. Such a technique can be utilized in integrated circuits such as DRAMs, with the word lines allowing for the formation of semi-self-aligned bit lines. The combination of word lines and bit lines can provide for a fully self-aligned contact opening for DRAM cell capacitors.

Abstract: A quick disconnect fluid coupling (34) for a liquid-cooled, preprogrammed card (10) for an aircraft communication or navigation system, the coupling being made up of male and female coupling elements (30,32) which are closed to flow in the free or uncoupled state and which are open to flow when coupled. The male coupling element (30) has an integral pressure relief feature which operates in two phases. In a first phase the male coupling element remains closed to fluid flow, but accommodates an increase in fluid pressure by movement of an annular valve sleeve within in outer annular member to increase the fluid volume within the annular member. In a second phase an end of a valve member of the male coupling element is biased away from sealing engagement with an end of the annular valve sleeve by fluid pressure, against the biasing effect of a return spring which is trapped between the annular valve sleeve and a perforate annular retainer that is affixed to an opposed end of the valve member, to permit fluid to be dumped from the coupling element.
