A multi-layer cover for an electronic device having one or more of a sensor panel, a proximity sensor, an ambient light sensor, and a display device can include an outer hardcoat, a structural layer, an IR transmissive ink layer, a mask layer, and a backside hardcoat. The backside hardcoat can reduce cover warpage, enable full surface lamination of the cover to the sensor panel, prevent bubbles from forming in transparent windows in the cover, enable a wider range of functional inks to be applied in various layering orders to allow certain types of light to pass through while blocking others, and hide the sensors to provide a seamless, uncluttered visual appearance.

The invention relates to an inflation device (1) for inflating an expansible surgical implant (2), wherein said implant (2) is to be positioned inside the body of a human or an animal and is capable of changing, by supplying a filling fluid, from a deflated configuration to an inflated configuration in which it assumes a predetermined volume, said inflation device (1) being characterised in that it comprises a cartridge (3) adapted to be connected with the implant (2) for inflating the same, said cartridge (3) containing a predetermined amount of inflating fluid that does not exceed the amount of inflating fluid to be contained in the implant (2) for the latter to reach its predetermined volume, and in that it comprises an inflation end piece (4) including a means for adjusting the flow (5) of the filling fluid fed into the implant (2). The invention can be used in devices for inflating surgical implants.

A human or animal implant device including a first, inner sealed silicone sheet sac, a second, intermediate sealed silicone sheet sac completely surrounding the first, inner sac, and a third, outer sealed silicone sheet sac completely surrounding the second sac. Each sac has a coating of beeswax on inner and outer walls thereof, and the first, inner sac is filled with a substantially sterile liquid material, preferably of viscosity at least 15 cp. The second, intermediate sac and the third, outer sac are filled with aqueous saline solution.

A method of forming a via in a low-k dielectric material and without the attendant via poisoning problem, or a dual damascene structure formed in the same dielectric and without the same problem are disclosed. The vertical walls of the via opening are first lined with a low-k protection layer and then covered with a barrier layer in order to prevent outgassing from the low-k dielectric material when copper is deposited into the via opening. In the case of a dual damascene structure, it is sufficient that the hole opening underlying the trench opening is first lined with the low-k protection layer. The resulting via or dual damascene structure is free of poisoned metal and, therefore, more reliable.

An occupant protection device that is provided in a door on the side of a vehicle, including an inflator that has an end portion at which a fluid delivery port is formed and delivers a fluid during a vehicle collision, and an expanding body that expands by the fluid fed by the inflator to cover the inside surface of a window provided in the door, with the end portion of the inflator being directly inserted in the expanding body, and the inflator being provided on the side of the door to be mounted to the vehicle body in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

A lithographic apparatus having a positioning device that facilitates the maintenance of a conditioned environment, is presented. Embodiments of the invention include a combination of a first drive unit and a second drive unit for positioning an object table in a lithographic apparatus. The first drive unit has a first part connected to the object table and a second part connected to a first part of the second drive unit. First and second part of the first drive unit are separated from each other by a wall. Maintaining a conditioned environment surrounding the object is thereby facilitated.

The present invention discloses one kind of sealing device for 6x10<-8> Pa aultra high vacuum circular planar magnetically controlled sputtering target. The sealing device includes one water cooling cavity with soft iron and magnetic steel, one water cooling cavity sealing flange with metal O-ring, one water inlet pipe and one water outlet pipe welded to the water cooling cavity sealing flange, one target supporting seat with one electrode insulating layer and two groups of O-rings, one installing flange welded to the target supporting seat and other parts. The present invention can ensure vacuum degree as high as 6x10<-8> Pa.

A structural, informative and/or decorative balloon display is comprised of a plurality of connected, inflatable chambers formed by a plurality of die applications to a plurality of layers of film. The largest die application produces a set of seals that encompasses an area smaller than the area encompassed by all such sets of seals. In one preferred embodiment connected chambers have and maintain fluid communication. In another preferred embodiment, connected, inflatable chambers have no fluid communication but have a beginning and an end. In other preferred embodiments fluid communication is terminated after inflation. Other embodiments take advantage of variations of numbers of layers, configurations of layers, and treatment of surfaces to create special balloon forms.

A method of preparing components for use in a vacuum chamber of a lithographic apparatus is disclosed. The method includes coating the component with a non-metallic material. The method may further include treating the coating so as to harden the coating. Preferably, the coating material is a hydrogen silsesquioxane (HSQ), which may be applied via spraying, brushing, or spinning and can be treated by heating or by irradiation with an electron beam. The resulting components strongly reduce outgassing of water and hydrocarbons when subjected to a vacuum environment.

The quality of painted surfaces of polymer composites is improved by first forming an electroless metal coating on the molded surface of the composite and then electroplating a coating of zinc or zinc alloy on the metallized composite surface. The “galvanized” composite surface provides a good base for electrostatic deposition of either liquid or powder paint and the zinc surface prevents the formation of defects in the painted surface during heating of the composite to dry or cure the paint film.
