Abstract: A process is disclosed for removing non-alkali metals from an acidic silicate solution or suspension, the process comprising subjecting the solution or suspension to an electrochemical process in the presence of a strong acid and an oxidising agent such that non-alkali metals present form water-soluble salts, and ion-exchanging the solution. The acidic silicate solution or suspension may be generated by ion-exchanging an aqueous alkali silicate solution to remove alkali metals. The invention therefore enables a silicic acid aqueous solution having a low content of metal impurities, for example 1 ppm or less, to be prepared from an alkali metal silicate of low purity.

Abstract: A control circuit for a windshield wiper motor is disclosed in which the wiper motor is made automatically responsive to the presence of moisture droplets on the windshield causing the wiper blades to sweep back and forth at a rate dependent upon the level of precipitation encountered. By using a set of sample-and-hold circuits, bandpass filtering and a differential amplifier under microprocessor control, disturbances to the system due to changes in ambient light are linearly rejected and the system becomes immune to such disturbances. The system utilizes an intentional-retrigger algorithm enabling the system to detect water droplets that miss the sensor yet fall within the area of the windshield which is swept by the wiper blades. The system automatically adapts to windshields of differing transmittance and is not falsely set into action by electromagnetic disturbances.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de fabrication de dispositifs à semi-conducteur, qui consiste, lorsque les valeurs limites de voilement des tranches et de densité des défauts internes dans le procédé de fabrication ont été déterminées dans certaine plage pour une tranche de silicium monocristalline d'un substrat en fonction des conditions de rendement du dispositif et de ses capacités d'effet getter, à appliquer un traitement de préchauffage destiné à produire le noyau de précipitation de l'oxygène à une tranche présentant une concentration d'oxygène initiale capable de satisfaire en même temps les plages ainsi déterminées pendant une période de traitement thermique, en satisfaisant simultanément la plage comprise entre les valeurs limites supérieure et inférieure de la concentration d'oxygène initiale et la plage de densité des défauts internes déterminée. Ce procédé permet de sélectionner efficacement les combinaisons des conditions mentionnées ci-dessus pour assurer la densité BMD nécessaire pour que le voilement de la tranche soit réduit au minimum et il permet en outre de conférer à la tranche les capacités d'effet getter désirées en un temps court sans utiliser l'expérimentation systématique.
