IPC: H01L21/02
Filed: 2003-04-17
Abstract: There is a need for adjustable capacitors for use in LC or RC matching networks in micro-circuits. This has been achieved by forming a set of individual capacitors that share a common bottom electrode (26). The areas of the top electrodes of these individual capacitors are chosen to be in an integral ratio to one another so that they can be combined to produce any capacitance within a range of unit values. For example, if four capacitors whose areas are in the ratio of 5:2:1:1, are provided, then any capacitance in a range of from 1 to 9 can be generated, depending on how the top electrodes (16) are connected. Such connections can be hard-wired within the final wiring level to provide a factory adjustable capacitor or they can be connected through field programmable devices to produce a field programmable capacitor. A process for manufacturing the device is also described.

Abstract: A release substrate is releasably placed across a layer of adhesive that has been
coated onto the base of an orthodontic appliance such as an orthodontic bracket. The
release substrate enhances separation from the adhesive coated on the appliance such that
the shape of the adhesive is essentially undisturbed and preferably substantially all of the
adhesive remains on the base of the appliance when the substrate is detached from the
adhesive. The release substrate is particularly suitable for use with adhesives that have a
relatively low viscosity, adhesives that are more tacky and/or adhesives that have less
cohesive strength than adhesives conventionally used with precoated orthodontic
appliances.

Abstract: A boot (2) incorporating techniques for making the process of tightening and
loosening the laces of a boot more convenient for the wearer is disclosed. The boot
may be provided with at least two independent lacing zones (20,22), the tensions of which are
separately adjustable by the wearer. The zones may be secured by pulling on two
laces (14,16), each of which tightens one of the two independent lacing zones. This

wearer with the "feel" as though he or she is tightening a conventional single lacing
zone boot. The laces may be simultaneously, yet independently secured by a lace
lock (38,64) at the upper and/or forward region of the boot. Slack may be created to facilitate
loosening of the boot and easy removal of a foot from the boot by unhooking the lace
from the lace guide without a corresponding distance of lace traveling through the
lace lock. A release strap (120), graspable by the wearer, facilitates unhooking the lace.
