A method of manufacturing a NAND flash memory device includes providing the semiconductor substrate and forming the oxide film in the semiconductor substrate at each of the first side and the second side of the gate of the source select transistor. Thus the user can carry the notebook computer with the cosmetic set together as one single item instead of carrying two separate items. In other embodiments, the system may also have more than two detectors arrays andor more than one source array.

An exemplary CMOS image sensor comprises a plurality of pixels arranged in an array. A docking cradle or external adapter can receive the electronic device and cover. The first light receiving surface receives light that is emitted from the LED light source in a direction slanted with respect to the light emitting surface, and takes a concave surface configured such that a distance of the first light receiving surface to the light emitting surface increases from one end to the other end of the lens. Thus, any smart card is effectively transformed via the use of the MSB into an ordinary magnetic finance card and is admissible for use by any conventional magnetic card reader.

The present invention provides a novel compound having few side effects such as bradycardia and the like and having superior peripheral blood lymphocyte-decreasing effect. These systems may be used to, for example, produce useful quantities of electric or mechanical energy, heat or cool an external substance or propel an object in a controllable direction. One of the kinds of fibers in each group is shaped so as to appear like a blade of grass. The windings are incidentally, essentially electrically isolated to each other.

The method is particularly useful for RAID groups of hard disks. The mobile terminal effectively receives the MBMS service by receiving second bearer information based on the first bearer information received through a downlink control channel. The magnetically coupled inductance coils and the capacitors constitute a coupling filter. M is an integer greater than one.

A check valve in particular for medical applications has a first hose connecting casing and a second hose connecting casing and a membrane disk configured between the two hose connecting casings. The stub is coupled to the coaxial through-section, wherein the stub inner conductor is conductively coupled to the through inner conductor at the first end of the stub, and the stub outer conductor is conductively coupled to the through outer conductor at the first end of the stub. The ground psyllium husk used in this invention is exceptionally effective at facilitating intestinal functions and increasing feces volume. The shaft of the electric motor extends through the bore of the flywheel assembly such that the taper of the shaft and the bore center the flywheel-pulley assembly on the shaft and create a self-holding taper arrangement. An instrument is programmed to use the predetermined criteria to dynamically control the rate of injection of the lift gas into the well.
