Abstract: A patient lower extremity positioning system (10) that is configured to facilitate easier use of surgical instruments during open and arthroscopic procedures of the lower extremity, including, but not limited to the hip joint, acetabulum, femur, femoral neck and femoral shaft is disclosed. The patient lower extremity positioning system may include one or more perineal pads (12) configured to be supported adjacent to a patient torso support (14) such that the perineal pad (12) is positionable adjacent to a patient's perineum. The perineal pad (12) may be formed from a perineal pad body (18) coupled to a distal transition section (16) extending distally from the perineal pad body (18). The distal transition section (16) may have a distal tip (36) with a cross-sectional area (38) that is less than a cross-sectional area (40) of the perineal pad body (18), thereby enabling a surgeon to more easily position surgical instruments during surgery without the perineal pad conflicting with the surgical instruments.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a buffer layer (BU), a channel layer (CH), a barrier layer (BA), and a gate electrode (GE) over a substrate (S), the gate electrode being disposed in a first opening (OA2) with a gate insulating film (GI) in between, the first opening running down to the middle of the channel layer through the barrier layer. The concentration of two-dimensional electron gas in a first region (ASB) on either side of the first opening is controlled to be lower than the concentration of two-dimensional electron gas in a second region (AF) between an end of the first region and a source (SE) or drain (DE) electrode. The concentration of the two-dimensional electron gas in the first region is thus decreased, thereby the conduction band-raising effect of polarization charge is prevented from being reduced. This prevents a decrease in threshold potential, and thus improves normally-off operability.
