Abstract

The radiation-induced conductivity of polymeric dielectrics with low electronic mobility is reduced by doping with electron donor or electron acceptor compounds at a level of 10.sup.15 to 10.sup.21 molecules of dopant/cm.sup.3. Polyesters, polyolefins, perfluoropolyolefins, vinyl polymers, vinylidene polymers, polycarbonates, polysulfones and polyimides can benefit from such a treatment. Usable dopants include 2,4,7-trinitro-9-fluorenone, tetracyanethylene, 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane, m-dinitrobenzene, 2-isopropylcarbazole, and triphenylamine.

Composite polymeric film and method for its use in installing a very thin polymeric film in a device

Patent Duchane, David V [Los Alamos, NM]; Barthell, Barry L [Tesuque, NM]

A composite polymeric film and a method for its use in forming and installing a very thin (<10 .mu.m) polymeric film are disclosed. The composite film consists of a thin film layer and a backing layer. The backing layer is soluble in a solvent in which the thin film layer is not soluble. In accordance with the method, the composite film is installed in a device in the same position in which it is sought to finally emplace the thin film. The backing layer is then selectively dissolved in the solvent to leave the insoluble thin film layer as anmore » « less

Radiation-hardened transistor and integrated circuit

Patent Ma, Kwok K [Albuquerque, NM]

A composite transistor is disclosed for use in radiation hardening a CMOS IC formed on an SOI or bulk semiconductor substrate. The composite transistor has a circuit transistor and a blocking transistor connected in series with a common gate connection. A body terminal of the blocking transistor is connected only to a source terminal thereof, and to no other connection point. The blocking transistor acts to prevent a single-event transient (SET) occurring in the circuit transistor from being coupled outside the composite transistor. Similarly, when a SET occurs in the blocking transistor, the circuit transistor prevents the SET from beingmore » « less

Biaxially oriented film on flexible polymeric substrate

Patent Finkikoglu, Alp T [Los Alamos, NM]; Matias, Vladimir [Santa Fe, NM]

A flexible polymer-based template having a biaxially oriented film grown on the surface of a polymeric substrate. The template having the biaxially oriented film can be used for further epitaxial growth of films of interest for applications such as photovoltaic cells, light emitting diodes, and the like. Methods of forming such a flexible template and providing the polymeric substrate with a biaxially oriented film deposited thereon are also described.

Ionic cross-linked polymeric films for gas separation

Patent Nulwala, Hunaid B.; Luebke, David; Zhou, Xu

Provided herein are compositions, CO2-permeable/selective membranes and related methods of making and using the membranes. Ionically cross-linked poly(ether)-based membranes were prepared for applications relating to CO2. These films were studied for their thermal curing behavior using DSC. The resulting free-standing membranes have Tgs near −64° C., TdS up to 230° C., and Young's modulus up to 4.2 MPa. These membranes showed CO2 permeabilities of 84-110 Barrer and CO2/N2 selectivity of 20-40.

Method for providing mirror surfaces with protective strippable polymeric film

Patent Edwards, Charlene C [Powell, TN]; Day, Jack R [Oak Ridge, TN]

This invention is a method for forming a protective, strippable, elastomeric film on a highly reflective surface. The method is especially well suited for protecting diamond-machined metallic mirrors, which are susceptible not only to abrasion and mechanical damage but also to contamination and corrosion by various fluids. In a typical use of the invention, a diamond-machined copper mirror surface is coated uniformly with a solution comprising a completely polymerized and completely cured thermoplastic urethane elastomer dissolved in tetrahydrofuran. The applied coating is evaporated to dryness, forming a tough, adherent, impermeable, and transparent film which encapsulates dust and other particulates onmore » « less
