Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100021641SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISTRIBUTING A FLUIDIC MASS - Disclosed herein is a system for distributing a fluidic mass. The system includes, a receptacle, receptive of the fluidic mass to be distributed, an opening, fluidically connected to the receptacle, a surface in operable communication with the opening and receptive of a distribution of the fluidic mass from the receptacle such that a rate of the distribution of the fluidic mass is determined by a speed of the surface relative to the opening, and a substratum. The substratum is positioned below the surface and movable relative to the surface, and movement of the substratum relative to the surface controls a thickness of a base layer of the fluidic mass formed on the substratum.01-28-2010

20110188209Processes for Enhanced 3D Integration and Structures Generated Using the Same - An enhanced 3D integration structure comprises a logic microprocessor chip bonded to a collection of vertically stacked memory slices and an optional set of outer vertical slices comprising optoelectronic devices. Such a device enables both high memory content in close proximity to the logic circuits and a high bandwidth for logic to memory communication. Additionally, the provision of optoelectronic devices in the outer slices of the vertical slice stack enables high bandwidth direct communication between logic processor chips on adjacent enhanced 3D modules mounted next to each other or on adjacent packaging substrates. A method to fabricate such structures comprises using a template assembly which enables wafer format processing of vertical slice stacks.08-04-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110300906Multi-Function Cell Phone Charger Apparatus - The multi-function cell phone charger apparatus provides convenience and security for a cell phone and cell phones that was not previously provided, in that cell phone information is automatically backed up when the cell phone is linked with the apparatus for charging. The apparatus may provide backup partially through the removably contained SIM (subscription identity module) and the removably contained media card. Importantly, the removability of the SIM and media card from the apparatus allow for a user to transfer the cards from a first phone to another phone and thereby have identical phone functions and stored information within any given phone. Further, there is no limit to the number of SIM and media cards that can be used and therefore no limit to the number of cell phones or other electronic devices with which the information stored on cards can be shared.12-08-2011

20090287604DESKTOP ALERT WITH INTERACTIVE BONA FIDE DISPUTE INITIATION THROUGH CHAT SESSION FACILITATED BY DESKTOP APPLICATION - A consumer installs a desktop application on a computer which renders a user interface on the computer's desktop. Upon installation, the desktop application is registered to receive offers and alerts. Each alert includes data for a transaction on an account conducted with a merchant where the account was issued by an issuer to an account holder to conduct transactions on the account with merchants. A received alert is rendered on the desktop. If the consumer, upon review of the rendered alert, deems the corresponding transaction to be fraudulent, the consumer can operate the user interface to activate a live chat with a web service, and use the live chat to send information sufficient to initiate a bona fide dispute of the transaction. The offers are rendered on the user interface as advertisement and are selectable to initiate a transaction on the account.11-19-2009
