Abstract: A method for reducing the range in resistivities of semiconductor crystalline sheets produced in a multi-lane growth furnace. A furnace for growing crystalline sheets is provided that includes a crucible with a material introduction region and a crystal growth region including a plurality of crystal sheet growth lanes. The crucible is configured to produce a generally one directional flow of material from the material introduction region toward the crystal sheet growth lane farthest from the material introduction region. Silicon doped with both a p-type dopant and an n-type dopant in greater than trace amounts is introduced into the material introduction region. The doped silicon forms a molten substance in the crucible called a melt. Crystalline sheets are formed from the melt at each growth lane in the crystal growth region. Co-doping the silicon feedstock can reduce the variation in resistivities among the crystalline sheets formed in each lane.

Abstract: There is provided a metered dose inhaler port for a ventilated patient where the port has a critical distance (as defined herein) sufficient to allow a metered dose inhaler to discharge into the port when the metered dose inhaler has a dose counter attached to it. The port must also have a stiffness sufficient to avoid bending upon insertion of the metered dose inhaler stem. The disclosure discusses an elongation of the metered dose inhaler actuator port to allow for use with metered dose inhaler canisters with and without dose counters. This solution maintains the original drug path length and so minimizes changes that might change the drug dispersal characteristics of the port and require governmental approval or re-education of medical personnel.
