In the early 19th century the Scotsman Charles Macintosh developed a process for making waterproof fabric by putting a layer of rubber between two layers of cloth.
His chips, the size of a half-dollar or smaller, are made with two layers of rubber, relying on a technique similar to injection molding used to make toys.
To enable this material to store electrical energy, two layers of woven fibres are made into a sandwich, separated by a thin layer of a glass-based insulating material.

MLPs allow the investor to avoid the two layers of taxation by passing their tax liabilities (and benefits) through to their limited partners (shareholders), which leads to a level of tax complexity most small investors are unaccustomed to.

The result was interesting, Unlike pork, the wild boar ribs had two distinct layers, sort of like pork belly, with a layer of meat and a layer of fat almost perfectly split horizontally.
As a result, the makers have developed a generation of cells whose silicon layers are only a micron or two deep, as opposed to the usual thickness of 200-300 microns.
Due to the way the covers are formed (two different color layers, for the likes of the lime-green and orange options) they've come out in very vivid hues.

For instance, the ultra-thin layers of graphene (a two-dimensional form of graphite) are formed by injecting liquid solutions containing carbon and silicon into an extremely hot, ionised gas (plasma) of argon.
Better still, due to the way the covers are formed (two different color layers, for the likes of the lime-green and orange options) they've come out in very vivid hues -- the soft-finish cyan shell is this editor's personal favorite.

For such a particle, it is possible to work out its velocity (from the time taken to pass between the two layers) and its trajectory (from the relative positions of the elements triggered in each sensor layer).
By carefully tailoring the semiconductor layers, the researchers can make lasers that shine in two bands of infra-red light to which the atmosphere is highly transparent allowing the light to travel a long way.
That there are not could be explained by the fact that the accumulation of sediment in most rocks is so slow that the two layers are, in effect, superimposed.
