| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 6771012 | Apparatus for producing a flux of charge carriers Apparatus for producing a flux of charge carriers that may be used in many applications including imaging and lithography comprises an electron source which includes an emitter with a tip radius of about one nanometer and a closely configured extractor, together wit... | 08/03/2004 |
| 6753568 | Memory device A memory device includes a memory node (1) to which charge is written through a tunnel barrier configuration (2) from a control electrode (9). The stored charge effects the conductivity of a source/drain path (4) and data is read by monit... | 06/22/2004 |
| 6088604 | Superconductor-normal conductor junction device A superconductor-normal conductor junction device comprises first and second regions (1, 3) of normal material forming first and second junctions with a superconducting material (2), the Fermi level of the first region of normal material being so arranged... | 07/11/2000 |
| 5997958 | Method of depositing nanometer scale particles Nanometre scale particles (3) e.g. of Au are deposited on a Si substrate (2) with a SiO2 surface layer (1) provided with receptor sites (4) of a first electrical polarity by treatment with APTMS solution. The Au particles (3) have a surface cha... | 12/07/1999 |
| 5952692 | Memory device with improved charge storage barrier structure A memory device includes a memory node (1) to which charge is written through a tunnel barrier configuration (2) from a control electrode (9). The stored charge effects the conductivity of a source/drain path (4) and data is read by monitoring the conduct... | 09/14/1999 |
| 5677637 | Logic device using single electron coulomb blockade techniques A memory device includes a memory node (2) to which is connected a tunnel barrier configuration such that the node exhibits first and second quantized memory states for which the level of stored charge is limited by Coulomb Blockade and a surplus or short... | 10/14/1997 |
| 5191213 | Integrated circuit structure analysis The structure of a multilayered integrated circuit is determined by removing successive layers of the circuit. Following removal of each layer, the revealed surface is scanned by an electron beam. The intensity of backscattered or secondary electrons is d... | 03/02/1993 |
