Patent CA-2436759-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GAGNON YVES
IPC: H01L21/477
Filed: 2003-08-08
Abstract: A method is provided for tuning (i.e. modifying, changing) the impedance of semiconductor components or devices using a focused heating source. The method may be exploited for finely tuning the impedance of semiconductor components or devices, by modifying the dopant profile of a region of low dopant concentration (i.e. increasing the dopant concentration) by diffusion of dopants from adjacent regions of higher dopant concentration through the melting action of a focused heating source, for example a laser. The present invention is in particular directed to the use of lasers in relation to circuits for the creation of conductive links and pathways where none existed before. The present invention more particularly relates to a means wherein impedance modification (i.e. trimming or tuning) may advantageously be carried out as a function of the location of one or more conductive bridge(s) along the length of a gap region.

Title: Electronic information burying method and extracting method, electronic information burying apparatus and extracting apparatus, and programs therefor
Inventor: KANAI SATOSHI
IPC: G01C11/00
Filed: 2001-12-12
Abstract: When digital watermark data is buried in point group data obtained by three-dimensional measurement, an x-y plane area where the point group data is defined is divided into pre-defined small areas to create point groups contained in the small areas, and the x- and y-coordinate values are so offset for every point group that the center of gravity of the point groups may be the origin, thereby converting the values into offset point group. Each offset point group is subjected to discrete Fourier transform to determine a Fourier coefficient series, and the Fourier coefficient series is changed according to the digital watermark data into watermarked Fourier coefficient series. The watermarked Fourier coefficient series is subjected to inverse discrete Fourier transform to create watermarked complex series, to determine an optimum watermark burying strength satisfying the tolerance of the coordinate errors caused by the burying, of the watermarked complex series. On the basis of the optimum burying strength, the Fourier coefficient series is changed again into a watermarked Fourier coefficient series. The watermarked Fourier coefficient series are inversely offset into watermarked point group data.
