Surgical system having means for stopping vacuum pump

An apparatus comprises a movable member, first and second rigid members positioned on opposite sides of the movable member, a first suspension assembly connected between a base and the first and second rigid members, a second suspension assembly connected between the first and second rigid members and the movable member, first and second actuators coupled to the first and second rigid members along a first central axis, and third and fourth actuators coupled to the movable member along a second central axis.

Actuator assembly providing two-dimensional movement of a moveable element in a data storage device

An apparatus comprises a storage medium, a head substrate, wherein the storage medium and the head substrate are separated by a gap, a plurality of electrodes separated from each other, and a support structure positioned in the gap for supporting some of the electrodes. An apparatus comprising a storage medium, a head substrate, wherein the storage medium and the head substrate are separated by a gap, a plurality of posts positioned in the gap, a layer of low friction material positioned on one end of each of the posts, is also described.

Elevated electrodes for probe position sensing

A flow measurement deviceis provided that includes an electrode terminal chamberwith an inletin communication with a flow channelfor receiving fluid and viscoelastic material aspirated from a surgical site, and an outletthat tapers into a flow channel. The outlethas a taper angle that is sufficient to smooth flow and cause viscoelastic material entering the electrode terminal chamberto flow substantially within a center portion of the chamber and through the outlet. The electrode terminal chamberfurther includes first and second electrode terminalsanddisposed on generally opposite sides of the electrode terminal chamberin a spaced-apart manner. The first and second electrode terminalsandare positioned a distance from the center of the chamberthat is sufficient to substantially avoid contact between the terminals and viscoelastic materials flowing through the chamber

Recessed electrodes for sensing flow in ophthalmic surgical system

An apparatus includes a moveable arm for positioning an optical transducer adjacent to a storage medium, a light source, and an elliptical or ellipsoid shaped mirror mounted for reflecting light from the light source to the optical transducer. The elliptical mirror can be positioned on an ellipse, the moveable arm can pivot about an axis passing through a first focus of the ellipse, and the light source can direct light from a point on a second axis passing through a second focus of the ellipse to the elliptical minor. The light source can include a fixed laser and a moveable mirror mounted to pivot about the second axis or a moveable laser mounted to pivot about the second axis. A method performed by the apparatus is also provided.

Optical system for data storage devices

An air bubble separator is provided for ophthalmic surgical systems, which includes a housinghaving a diagonally-oriented flow channeland a vertically-oriented flow channeladjoining the diagonally oriented channel. The diagonally-oriented flow channelhas a downstream portiondisposed downstream of the vertically-oriented flow channel, and an upstream portiondisposed upstream of the vertically-oriented flow channel. The downstream portionof the diagonally-oriented flow channelhas a cross-sectional areathat is greater than that of the upstream portion. The downstream portion's cross-sectional areais greater than the upstream portion's cross-sectional areaby an amount or percentage that is sufficient to slow fluid flow through the diagonally-oriented flow channel, so as to cause air within the fluid to rise and flow into the vertically-oriented flow channel

Epitaxial ferroelectric and magnetic recording structures having graded lattice matching layers are disclosed. A single crystal material such as Si may be used as a substrate material upon which the graded lattice matching layers are deposited. The lattice matching layers may comprise metals and metal alloys, or may comprise oxides doped with selected elements or deposited under different oxygen pressures. A recording layer, such as ferroelectric lead zirconium titanate or a magnetic Fe/Pt multilayer structure, is deposited on the graded lattice matching layers.

Epitaxial ferroelectric and magnetic recording structures including graded lattice matching layers

An apparatus comprises a ferroelectric storage medium, and a transducer for reading data from the ferroelectric storage medium and for writing data to the ferroelectric storage medium, wherein the transducer includes a substrate and a probe coupled to the substrate, wherein the probe includes a conductive element and a bilayer structure causing the probe to bend toward the ferroelectric storage medium.

Ferroelectric probe storage apparatus

A ferroelectric transducer for use with a ferroelectric storage medium includes a read electrode. The read electrode emits a current when a polarity orientation of the read electrode is opposite a polarity orientation of a ferroelectric domain on the storage medium.

Transducers for ferroelectric storage medium

Method for dynamically allocating a cost to an e-mail that a first user of a transmission network such as the Internet network or an Intranet network who is a member of a group, wants to forward to a second user of the transmission network who is also a member of the group. The method comprising the steps of forwarding by the first user the e-mail to a market engine in charge of allocating a cost to the e-mail, determining by the market engine the cost of the e-mail based upon intrinsic and extrinsic criteria, submitting the cost of the e-mail to the first user for agreement, forwarding by the market engine the e-mail to the second user, and updating a credit account associated with the first user.
