Patent EP-1016135-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ISMAIL M SALLEH
IPC: H01L21/768
Filed: 1998-07-16
Abstract: A semiconductor device (400) has a flexible structure bonded to a semiconductor substructure to form a cavity. The flexible structure is bonded over a conducting feed-through without the feed-through interfering with a hermetic seal formed by bonding. One embodiment (400) of the device includes depressions (418) that contain edges of a diffused feed-through (410) so that imperfections at the edge (420) of the diffusion (408) do not interfere with bonding. The flexible structure is bonded to elevated areas (404, 406) thus hiding the imperfections. Another embodiment has either a surface or buried well in a semiconductor structure and extending from an active region in the cavity to a point outside the perimeter of the flexible structure. The well provides a conductive feed-through structure without creating imperfections that would interfere with the bonding that seals the cavity.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif (10) de revascularisation transmyocardique. Cet appareil (10) comporte une aiguille d'incision (20) et un bloc d'électrocautère. L'aiguille d'incision (20) sert à créer à l'intérieur du coeur du patient une incision définissant un canal. Le bloc d'électrocautère est fonctionnellement associé à l'aiguille d'incision (20) de façon à effectuer un transfert d'énergie thermique vers la surface intérieure du canal. Ce chauffage a pour objet de réduire les saignements se produisant sur cette surface intérieure et d'empêcher le canal de se fermer. De préférence, le transfert d'énergie thermique évite l'épicarde de façon à conserver, après retrait de l'aiguille d'incision cylindrique (20) du tissu traité, une languette ou une fermeture de canal permettant de réduire les saignements en provenance du canal.

Abstract: There are provided an ocular optical system simulating
method and a simulating apparatus which enable simulation of
how things can be seen, together with fluctuation, deformation,
blur, etc., occurring when a lens system such as a progressive
addition lens is worn. A rotation-based retinal image,
defined as an image obtained by turning an eye-ball with
respect to all object points within a field of vision and by
connecting images caught at the fovea, is made. The image is
made by first creating an original image having a specific
angular field of vision and entering the eye having a specific
rotation center point. Then, a deformed original image having
deformation occurring when the original image is seen through
the lens system is created by using ray tracing. A PSF on the
retina of an eye-model from light from the object points of
the original image in an optical system composed of the lens
system and a spectacle model is determined. Next, the
deformed original image and the PSF of each pixel of the
original image are convoluted. The obtained rotation-based
retinal image is edited further to result in a motion picture
image of the rotation-based retinal image. The PSF is found
by selecting sampling points on an object and the PSF other
than those at the sampling points is found by using
approximation methods including spline interpolation.
