Disclosed is an optical member for use in liquid crystal displays, which can correct the light path and can minimize the loss of light, so that light in a wider angular range can be collected forwards. Some of the disclosed adamantane-based glass resists have a tripodal structure and other disclosed adamantane-based glass resists include one or more cholic groups. The strength of the stent at a center section or at either end can be varied by increasing the mass of the struts forming each cylindrical element in that center section or end section relative to the lower mass struts in the remaining sections of the stent. The interconnect bus may also enable silicon solutions for high speed USB that do not require a PLL, since the clock may be provided by the transmission source and may thus not need to be recovered from the serial data stream. The semiconductor wafer disposed inside the chamber is illuminated with radiation sufficient to create a plurality of electron-hole pairs near the surface of the wafer and to desorb ions and molecules adsorbed on the surface of the wafer.
