Apparatus and methods are described for treatment of morbid obesity using minimally invasive techniques. The apparatus includes a system of components that may be used separately or in combination for effectively reducing stomach volume, bypassing a portion of the stomach and / or small intestines, reducing nutrient absorption in the stomach and / or small intestines and / or depositing minimally or undigested food farther than normal into the intestines, thereby stimulating intestinal responses. The components described include a gastric sleeve device, an intestinal sleeve device, and a combined gastrointestinal sleeve device.

A light emitting diode (LED) device is provided. The LED device includes a device substrate, a first doped layer of a first conductivity type, a light emitting layer, a second doped layer of a second conductivity type, a transparent conductive oxide layer, a reflecting layer and two electrodes. The first doped layer is deposited on the device substrate, the light emitting layer is deposited on a portion of the first doped layer, and the second doped layer is deposited on the light emitting layer. The first and the second doped layers are comprised of III-V semiconductor material respectively. The transparent conductive oxide layer is deposited on the second doped layer, and the reflecting layer is deposited on the transparent conductive oxide layer. The two electrodes are deposited on the reflecting layer and the first doped layer respectively.

The invention relates to the technical field of soil heavy metal remediation, and specifically discloses a method for preparing an iron-based bio-char material, a prepared iron-based bio-char material, and a method for applying the iron-based bio-char material in treating soil heavy metal pollution. According to the material, biomass is adopted as a raw material; a high-temperature carbonization method is adopted; during the bio-char preparation process, an iron-containing compound is added, such that iron is doped according to a certain ratio, and the iron-based bio-char material with special structure and function is formed. The material has the advantages of simple preparation process, low production cost, and short production period. The obtained iron-based bio-char material has a unique effect in repairing arsenic-cadmium composite polluted soil. With the material, bio-availability of arsenic and cadmium in soil can be effectively reduced, arsenic and cadmium contents in agricultural products planted in the arsenic-cadmium composite polluted soil can be greatly reduced, and no toxic or side effect is caused on crops. The material is safe to apply, and can be used in a large scale in treatment of arsenic-cadmium composite polluted soil.
