Abstract: A MEMS actuator is provided that produces significant forces and displacements while consuming a reasonable amount of power. The MEMS actuator includes a microelectronic substrate, spaced apart supports on the substrate and a metallic arched beam extending between the spaced apart supports. The MEMS actuator also includes a heater for heating the arched beam to cause further arching of the beam. In order to effectively transfer heat from the heater to the metallic arched beam, the metallic arched beam extends over and is spaced, albeit slightly, from the heater. As such, the MEMS actuator effectively converts the heat generated by the heater into mechanical motion of the metallic arched beam. A family of other MEMS devices, such as relays, switching arrays and valves, are also provided that include one or more MEMS actuators in order to take advantage of its efficient operating characteristics. In addition, a method of fabricating a MEMS actuator is further provided.

Abstract: A writing instrument (10) having an elongated barrel (12) comprised of an outer portion and an inner portion (22), rotatable relative one to the other. The point or writing tip (30) is fixed to the barrel inner portion (22), disposed at an angle to, and may be offset from, the centerline of the barrel outer portion. The barrel inner portion is caused to rotate and move axially relative to the barrel outer portion by pressure on the writing instrument or weights (34, 35, 36) attached to the barrel inner portion to bring the point into desired alignment during the writing process. Further pressure on the point or writing tip causes the barrel inner portion to move to a rearwardmost position at which rotation of the point or writing tip is impeded by a gripping structure (144, 214).

Abstract: A semi-submersible structure is adapted to carry consumable solid or liquid material such as mud, and removable equipment, for example drilling tubulars. Both consumables and removable equipment are removed from the structure during use, thereby reducing the structure's total mass. The structure is provided with pontoon means (4, 8) containing a first set of compartments (66, 68, 70, 72, 84, 86, 88) for consumable material and ballast control means for introducing ballast into the first set of compartments to compensate for the removal of consumable material. The structure also includes dedicated ballast tanks (40, 42, 56, 106, 108), but the arrangement is such that, if the first set of compartments is empty, and no consumable material or removable equipment is being carried by the structure, the filling of the ballast tanks with ballast will not cause the structure to be submerged to an extent sufficient to achieve a semi-submerged condition (the structure therefore still being over-buoyant), whereas said condition would be achieved if the first set of compartments (66, 68, 70, 72, 84, 86, 88) were also at least partially filled. The structure thus includes 'dual purpose' compartments which can accept either consumable materials or ballast, thereby increasing the effective deck load of the structure.

material with an aqueous-based bath of a sensing component, or precursor thereof,
under conditions effective to covalently attach the sensing component, or precursor
thereof, to the water-swellable ion-permeable matrix material, wherein the aqueous-based
bath comprises water and an organic solvent in an amount effective to
solubilize the sensing component, or precursor thereof; contacting the water-swellable
ion-permeable matrix material having covalently attached sensing
component, or precursor thereof, with an aqueous solution having a pH of at least
about 10 and an ionic strength of at least about that of a 5% aqueous sodium
chloride solution to form a sensing element; and covering the sensing element with
an opaque overcoat material. Also provided is a method of making a precursor to a
preferred sensing component, i.e., acetoxypyrenetris(sulfonyl)chloride, which is
made using a thionyl chloride method. If the sensing component is attached to the
matrix material using amine groups, any unreacted amine groups can be capped by
contacting them with a solution comprising an acetylating agent, an organic amine,
and an ethereal solvent.

Abstract: A method of forming a patterned conductive
multilayer arrangement on a semiconductor substrate is
provided which prevents photoresist poisoning by reactive
nitrogenous substances from a silicon oxynitride layer
forming a dielectric antireflective coating (DARC) for an
overlying photoresist layer. The substrate has a first
level conductive layer (22'), e.g., of a metal, disposed in a
region (21') thereon, and is coated in turn with a dielectric
insulation layer (23'), e.g., of silicon dioxide, which
overlies the first level conductive layer region (22'), a
dielectric antireflective coating (DARC) silicon
oxynitride layer (41), an essentially reactive nitrogenous
substance-free dielectric spacer layer (42), e.g., of spin-on
glass (SOG), and a photoresist layer (25'). The dielectric
spacer layer (42) prevents reactive nitrogenous substance
transport therethrough from the DARC silicon oxynitride
layer (41) to the photoresist layer (25'), thereby preventing
poisoning of the photoresist layer (25'). The photoresist
layer is exposed and developed to uncover pattern
portions of the dielectric spacer layer (42). The uncovered
portions of the dielectric spacer layer (42) and corresponding
portions of the DARC silicon oxynitride layer (41) are removed
together, and then corresponding portions of the
insulation layer (23'), e.g., by a pair of tandem etching
steps, to expose portions of the first level conductive
layer (22') for subsequent metallization.

Abstract: A material is disclosed which is suitable for making a flexographic
printing plate and comprises in the order given a base, a
photopolymer layer, a barrier layer wherein the main component is a
polymer different from gelatin, and an ink receiving layer wherein
the main component is gelatin. An image having a high optical
density can be printed on the ink receiving layer by image-wise
jetting a water-based ink because the gelatin in the ink receiving
layer has excellent ink receptivity and because the barrier layer
reduces diffusion of monomers from the photopolymer layer to the ink
receiving layer. The image present in or on the ink receiving layer
can then be used as a photomask for the subsequent flood exposure of
the photopolymer layer. After processing, a flexographic printing
plate is obtained.

Abstract: A catcher (2), having an immunological epitope, is fixed to a detection zone of a spreading
layer (1). A marker (3), capable of easy detection, has an immunological epitope. The marker (3)
and bispecific antibodies (4,5) are soluble so that they can move on the spreading layer (1). The
bispecific antibodies (4,5) include a first bispecific antibody (4), having specificity for the
detectable material in the fluid sample and the marker (3), and a second bispecific antibody (5),
having specificity for the detectable material (6) in the fluid sample and the catcher (2). Pore
sizes and particle diameters are set so that the reaction product in which the marking
elements and the particles are bonded are caught at a catching section. The concentration
of the marking elements and the particles are increased to improve detection sensitivity.
The result is an inexpensive and simple detection apparatus being highly-sensitive for the
immunological detection of a detectable material, without wasting valuable antibodies.
