Compositionally modulated composite materials and methods for making the same

A light-weight composite material with enhanced structural characteristics includes, in one embodiment, a compositionally modulated nanolaminate coating electrically deposited into an open, accessible void structure of a porous substrate. As a result of including a nanolaminate within the void structure, the composite can include a greater amount of nanolaminate material per unit volume than can be achieved by depositing a nanolaminate material solely on a two-dimensional surface. In addition, the nanolaminate material as well as other material electrodeposited to form the composite is compositionally modulated so that discontinuities between layers are minimized and potentially eliminated. The light-weight but structurally enhanced composite material can be used in a number of different applications including, but not limited to, ballistic applications (e.g., armor panels or tank panels), automotive protection applications (e.g., car door panels, racing shells) and sporting equipment applications (e.g., golf club shafts and tennis racket frames).

Tear film osmometry

Osmolarity measurement of a sample fluid, such as tear film, is achieved by depositing an aliquot-sized sample on a sample receiving substrate. The sample fluid is placed on a sample region of the substrate. Energy is imparted to the sample fluid and energy properties of the fluid can be detected to produce a sample fluid reading that indicates osmolarity of the sample fluid. An aliquot-sized volume can comprise, for example, a volume of no more than 20 microliters (μL). The aliquot-sized sample volume can be quickly and easily obtained, even from dry eye sufferers. The imparted energy can comprise electrical, optical or thermal energy. In the case of electrical energy, the energy property of the sample fluid can comprise electrical conductivity. In the case of optical energy, the energy property can comprise fluorescence. In the case of thermal energy, the measured property can be the freezing point of the sample fluid. The substrate can be packaged into a chip, such as by using semiconductor fabrication techniques. An ex vivo osmolarity sensor system that uses the chip can detect energy from the sample region and can provide an accurate osmolarity measurement without user intervention.

Disclosed is a semiconductor device including plural types of semiconductor elements having structures that have respective thicknesses suitable for their uses formed in the same process. A semiconductor device (100) includes a TFT (40) and a photodiode (50). A gate electrode (110) of the TFT (40) and a light-shielding layer (60) of the photodiode (50) are formed in the same process. However, because the film thickness of the gate electrode (110) is small, the breakage of an island-shaped silicon layer (120), which will be the channel layer, at the edge of the gate electrode (110) can be prevented. Also, because the film thickness of the light-shielding layer (60) is large, the light entering through a surface of a glass substrate (101) on the side opposite from the surface on which the TFT is formed can be reliably blocked by the light-shielding layer (60). Consequently, the detection sensitivity of the photodiode (50) can be increased.
