Abstract: A multi-beam electron gun (60) for a color cathode ray tube (CRT) includes a plurality of vertically spaced, horizontal inline beams, where each inline array of beams provides the three primary colors and adjacent inline beam arrays simultaneously trace adjacent horizontal scan lines (72a, 72b), where each inline array of beams provides three primary colors and adjacent inline beam arrays simultaneously trace adjacent horizontal scan lines (83a, 83b) on the color CRT's display screen (61). Each inline array of beams is modulated in accordance with that portion of the video image which they form allowing adjacent, vertically spaced inline arrays to write different video image information on the screen in simultaneously forming adjacent portions of the color video image. Simultaneously providing color video image information on more than one horizontal scan line allows for a reduction in horizontal scan frequency and associated magnetic deflection yoke operating criteria, and also increases beam dwell time on the screen's phosphor elements allowing for a reduction in individual beam current without sacrificing video image brightness while improving video image resolution.

IPC: H01J37/28

Abstract: Improved scanning methods for use in a scanning particle beam microscop reduce the effects of surface charge accumulation, increasing linearity and precision. More particularly, signal distortion is reduced by scanning across an object along a line in a first direction to produce a first signal, scanning across the object along the identical line in an opposite, anti-parallel, direction to produce a second signal, and combining the first and second signals. This technique is referred to as scan reversal. Baseline drift is substantially canceled out of the resulting signal. According to another technique imaging of a general circular high-aspect-ratio structure is enhanced by identifying approximately the center of the structure, electrostatically scanning a particle beam along a multiplicity of radii of the structure, detecting particles emitted from the surface of the structure being examined to generate a detection signal, and using the detection signal to form an enhanced image of the generally circular high-aspect-ratio structure. This technique is referred to as radial scanning. According to a further technique, the effects of surface charging are reduced by identifying features of an object in a low magnification image and scanning a particle beam across the object discontinuously, only in portions of an image field containing the features of interest. The "background" of the image field is therefore not charged, improving imaging of the features of interest. This technique is referred to as structured scanning.

Pour le brochage de métaux adhérant à l'outil tels que l'acier inoxydable, chaque outil de coupe (22) présente un angle antérieur, un angle postérieur et une élévation, qui sont suffisamment grands pour empêcher le durcissement thermique de la surface du trou. Une bague (22c) est prévue entre la face antérieure et la surface en palier (22a, 22b) de chaque dent de coupe (22), et sa largeur est sélectionnée de façon à empêcher la formation de traces d'outil axiales et annulaires. Des encoches en V (30) ayant un grand angle radial et un petit angle postérieur sont formées sur le plateau (22b) de chaque dent de coupe (22) pour casser les copeaux et empêcher l'obstruction. L'outil (10) comprend en outre un tourillon postérieur (24) qui possède une pluralité de dents de lissage (26) dont le diamètre est plus grand que le diamètre fini du trou. Il est possible de prévoir un jeu d'outils de brochage plus ou moins fins; lorsque l'outil fin est usé au-delà des tolérances, il subit un traitement qui le transforme en outil rugueux. Un liquide de lubrification et de refroidisement contenant de la poudre de disulfure de molybdène dispersée dans une suspension liquide est appliqué sur l'outil (10) pendant le brochage.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for the poration and fusion of cells using high-power radiofrequency electrical pulses. The electrodes of the apparatus can be hand held or part of integrated equipment with special containers for cells. The electrodes, which are positioned equidistant from each other, are attached to a high power function generator. The power function generator can apply a continuous AC electrical field and/or a high-power pulsed radiofrequency electrical field across the electrodes. The alternating electrical field induces cell congregation by the process of dielectrophoresis. The high-power pulsed radiofrequency electrical field porates or fuses the cells. The method has the ability to porate or fuse biological cells with a very high efficiency. The method can be used to fuse or porate a variety of cells including animal cells, human cells, plant cells, protoplasts, erythrocyte ghosts, liposomes, vesicles, bacteria and yeasts. The method has the unique ability to porate or fuse cells in very small or very large numbers. During the poration or fusions, a variety of chemical agents including DNA, RNA, antibodies, proteins, drugs, molecular probes, hormones, growth factors, enzymes, organic chemicals and inorganic chemicals can be introduced into these cells. The method can also be used to produce new biological species to make hybridoma cells which produce animal or human monoclonal antibodies and to insert therapeutic genes into human cells which can be transplanted back into the human body to cure genetic diseases.

The handle halves (2a,2b) are pivoted away from each other in the switch on direction against a spring torque forcing them together, by a larger torque of the switch device latch acting in the off direction. This pivotal movement releases or activates a locking element (6). On each operation of the handle (2) in the switch off direction in the unlocked condition, the locking element (6) is locked or inactivated.
