20110018136 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FORMING ELECTONIC DEVICES - A method of forming at least one electronic device on a substrate comprising creating a depository and an attached capillary; providing a liquid containing particles in the range 1 nanometer to 1 millimeter for deposit into the depository; the liquid flowing into the at least one capillary by capillary action; evaporating the liquid such that the particles form an agglomerate beginning at the end of the at least one capillary with a substantially uniform distribution of the particles within the agglomerate; whereby the agglomerate is used to form a part of the at least one electronic device. An microelectronic integrated circuit device comprising a substrate; a depository coupled to said substrate formed by at least one wall, a capillary channel coupled to said depository adapted to be filled with liquid comprising nanoparticles by capillary action, whereby as the liquid evaporates, an agglomerate forms in the capillary channel having a substantially uniform distribution of the particles. | 01-27-2011 |
20140321032 | Electrically Insulating Elements And Electrically Conductive Elements Formed From Elements Having Different Oxidation Behaviors - Embodiments of the present invention are directed to electrical devices and methods for fabricating electrical devices using an oxidation process. According to one embodiment, a method of forming an electrical device using an oxidation process includes forming a metallic element which is to become an electrically insulating or resistive element in an electrical device; forming an electrically conductive element connected to the metallic element, wherein the metallic element and the electrically conductive element have different oxidation behavior when subjected to the oxidation process; and subjecting the elements forming the electrically insulating or resistive element and the electrically conductive element to the oxidation process. | 10-30-2014 |

20140050711 | PRODUCTION OF RED BLOOD CELLS AND PLATELETS FROM STEM CELLS - This disclosure provides methods of making a megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitor cell (MEP), comprising differentiating a stem cell into a MEP in culture in the presence of an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonist. In some embodiments the stem cell is a pluripotent stem cell. In some embodiments the MEP co-expresses CD41 and CD235. In some embodiments the number of MEPs produced in the culture increases exponentially. Methods of making a red blood cell (RBC) by culturing a MEP in the presence of an AhR agonist are also provided. Methods of making a megakaryocyte and/or a platelet, comprising culturing a MEP in the presence of an AhR modulator are also provided. In some embodiments the AhR modulator is an AhR antagonist. This disclosure also provides compositions comprising at least 1 million MEPs per ml and compositions in which at least 50% of the cells are MEPs. | 02-20-2014 |

20080248452 | Method and apparatus for demonstrating hydrocephalus treatment - Method and apparatus for demonstrating hydrocephalus shunt implantation includes a fabricated body including a fill, a shell covering the fill and including respective torso, head, and valve openings formed in the shell, a simulated torso including the torso opening, and a simulated head including the head and valve openings. An implant includes an abdominal tube attached to the body within the torso opening and a ventricular tube attached to the body within the head opening. An insertion tube is selectively insertable and useable to thread each of the abdominal and ventricular tubes beneath the shell from the respective torso and head openings to the valve opening, for example, along a pocket of the body formed therebetween. The implant can further include a simulated valve connectible to respective free ends of the abdominal and ventricular tubes. The simulated valve can be passable into the body via the valve opening, and a flap can close the valve opening over the simulated valve. | 10-09-2008 |
