20090090846 | Imaging system with low noise pixel array column buffer - An imaging system includes a row and column array of active pixels, each having an associated pitch. In response to respective control signals, each pixel outputs a reset level which includes noise components, or a signal level which includes signal and noise components. Multiple column buffers, each having a pitch equal to or less than that of a pixel, convey the outputs of respective pixel columns to a bus line. Each buffer comprises ‘odd’ and ‘even’ S&H/CDS circuits, which process the pixel outputs of odd and even rows, respectively. Each S&H/CDS circuit subtracts pixel reset level from signal level to produce an output in which correlated noise is suppressed. Each column buffer includes a buffer amplifier which conveys the output to the bus line. A gain amplifier separate from the column buffers is coupled to the bus line such that it amplifies the outputs of a multiple column buffers. | 04-09-2009 |

20120125904 | WELDING NOZZLE - An exemplary welding nozzle has a smooth, highly polished bore of circular cross-section. The bore has a forward portion of generally flared, gradually curving shape, joined with a narrowing inner portion along a gradual curve. Hence a concentrated surface flow of shielding gas may be directed out the nozzle's mouth to reliably provide a flared shielding envelope having reinforced boundaries. The inner portion tapers inwardly at a constant angle for a length sufficient to dampen flow disturbances. Hence an inner core of shielding gas of high ionization potential may be directed in laminar flow out the nozzle's mouth for concentration immediately about the exposed electrode to stabilize the electric arc at the electrode tip. The diverging gas flows enable significantly reduced gas consumption while reliably maintaining weld quality, a reduced rate of spatter buildup within the nozzle, and increased versatility of welding tip operation in both automated and manual environments. | 05-24-2012 |

20130284604 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ELECTROPLATING SEMICONDUCTOR WAFER WHEN CONTROLLING CATIONS IN ELECTROLYTE - Apparatus and methods for electroplating metal onto substrates are disclosed. The electroplating apparatus comprise an electroplating cell and at least one oxidization device. The electroplating cell comprises a cathode chamber and an anode chamber separated by a porous barrier that allows metal cations to pass through but prevents organic particles from crossing. The oxidation device (ODD) is configured to oxidize cations of the metal to be electroplated onto the substrate, which cations are present in the anolyte during electroplating. In some embodiments, the ODD is implemented as a carbon anode that removes Cu(I) from the anolyte electrochemically. In other embodiments, the ODD is implemented as an oxygenation device (OGD) or an impressed current cathodic protection anode (ICCP anode), both of which increase oxygen concentration in anolyte solutions. Methods for efficient electroplating are also disclosed. | 10-31-2013 |

20090215477 | INTELLIGENT MULTIPLE DEVICE FILE SHARING IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM - Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate communication between a plurality of devices identified by mobile infospheres. The devices can be associated with a mobile infosphere based on ownership, for example, where the mobile infospheres are identified by a mobile phone number. A registry server can store information regarding devices in each mobile infosphere, and communication between the devices within a mobile infosphere or devices in other mobile infospheres can be facilitated by providing stored access parameters. In addition, data transferred among the devices can be transcoded to meet capabilities of disparate devices with respect to memory, bandwidth, available codes, etc. Moreover, a file system can aggregate shared files and folders from a plurality of mobile infosphere devices to provide seamless access to available accessible content. | 08-27-2009 |

20150144880 | NON-PLANAR GATE ALL-AROUND DEVICE AND METHOD OF FABRICATION THEREOF - A non-planar gate all-around device and method of fabrication thereby are described. In one embodiment, the device includes a substrate having a top surface with a first lattice constant. Embedded epi source and drain regions are formed on the top surface of the substrate. The embedded epi source and drain regions have a second lattice constant that is different from the first lattice constant. Channel nanowires having a third lattice are formed between and are coupled to the embedded epi source and drain regions. In an embodiment, the second lattice constant and the third lattice constant are different from the first lattice constant. The channel nanowires include a bottom-most channel nanowire and a bottom gate isolation is formed on the top surface of the substrate under the bottom-most channel nanowire. A gate dielectric layer is formed on and all-around each channel nanowire. A gate electrode is formed on the gate dielectric layer and surrounding each channel nanowire. | 05-28-2015 |
