The Examiner argues that the definition of a "cell state voltage" proposed by Appellants was not present in the Specification and constitutes new matter. Ans. 2 (citing App. Br. 4--5). We disagree for two reasons. First, we find the Specification, quoted above, provides an express definition of "cell state voltage." Spec. ¶ 9. Second, although the Specification does not mention word lines or bit lines, Appellants contend "[t]his conventional memory cell operation is well understood by one of ordinary skill in view of applicant[s'] specification, particularly in view of paragraph [9]." App. Br. 6. We find this contention persuasive. See Matsunaga ¶¶ 48, 49; Kochar ¶ 23; Sevugapandian, 3:15-38; see also Okajima v. Bourdeau, 261 F.3d 1350, 1355 (Fed. Cir. 2001) ("the level of skill in the art is a prism or lens through which a judge, jury, or the Board views the prior art and the claimed invention" (emphasis added)).
