Abstract: Disclosed is an integrated miniaturized biochemical sensor
(50) which can be used to make critical angle measurements
resulting from the differences in refractive index between the
sensor's housing (55) and a given sample (40) . In one
embodiment, the sensor includes a device platform (111) over
which an encapsulating and light transmissive housing (115) is
formed to enclose the various sensor components including a
light source (105), and a photodetector (107),a signal
processing unit (95) and a temperature sensor (95). In another
embodiment the housing (115) has a reflective mirrored surface
(119) which focuses the light (117) from the light source (105)
onto a sensing surface (121) which is in interact with the
sample (40) of interest. Light incident from the sensing
surface (121) is directed at the photodetector (107,159) which
may be an array or single cell. A temperature sensor (95) may
also be included and coupled to the platform(111).

Abstract: A plurality of first layers made of AlGaN mixed crystal each having a
thickness of the order of 1 to 100 nm and a plurality of second layers of p-type
GaN with Mg each having a thickness of the order of 1 to 100 nm are
alternately stacked. Since each of the first and second layers is thin, the
stacked layers as a whole have properties of p-type AlGaN mixed crystal
although the first layers do not include Mg and the second layers do not
include Al. An Al source and a Mg source are temporally separated to be
introduced in a stacking process. A reaction between the Al source and Mg
source which may interfere desirable crystal growth is thereby prevented.
Crystals of good quality are thus grown and electrical conductivity is thereby
improved.

Abstract: An apparatus for changing bandwidth loading by a
bandwidth change amount in a communications interface
having elastic and non-elastic call connections where the
elastic and non-elastic call connections have associated
current cell rates and equivalent cell rates respectively.
The apparatus includes a processor programmed to
determine whether the bandwidth change amount is negative
or positive. When the bandwidth change amount is negative
the processor reduces the current cell rate of each
elastic connection and releases at least some non-elastic
connections such that the current cell rate of each
elastic connection is reduced and the non-elastic
connections are released until the total of the current
cell rates of the elastic connections and the equivalent
cell rates of the non-elastic connections have been
reduced by at least the bandwidth change amount. When the
bandwidth change amount is positive, the processor
increase the current cell rate of each elastic connection
and restores non-elastic connections.

Abstract: An optoacoustic modulator contains first and second optoacoustic
media, to which first and second piezoelectric vibrators are attached
respectively. Herein, both of the first and second optoacoustic media are
designed in same measurements, wherein they are arranged in series along
an optical axis of a light signal in such a way that crystal orientation of the
first optoacoustic media differs from crystal orientation of the second
optoacoustic media with an angle of inclination of 90°. In addition, the
first piezoelectric vibrator is attached to a first surface of the first
optoacoustic media which is placed in parallel with the optical axis of the
light signal, while the second piezoelectric vibrator is attached to a second
surface of the second optoacoustic media which is placed in parallel with the
optical axis of the light signal, wherein the first surface is directed
perpendicular to the second surface. The light signal, corresponding to
incoming light incident on the optoacoustic modulator, is input to the first
optoacoustic media. Then, the light signal transmitted through the first
optoacoustic media is input to the second optoacoustic media, from which a
desired output corresponding to outgoing light is output. The first and
second piezoelectric vibrators are controlled by modulation signals, which
are independently adjusted to cancel polarization mode dispersions of the
optoacoustic media. In addition, it is possible to improve ripple
characteristic of loss-wavelength dependency characteristic of the
optoacoustic media, while it is possible to reduce an amount of crosstalk
that occurs at a high-speed modulation mode.

Abstract: An air conditioning system 100 may include a compressor 101 having a driving

may release high pressure refrigerant from the compressor discharge port 120 into the

include a selector 181, a first refrigerant releasing means 183 and a second refrigerant
releasing means 185. The selector 181 connects the discharge port 120 and the driving
chamber 110 by both the first and second refrigerant releasing means 183, 185 when
discharge pressure of the refrigerant has reached a predetermined high-pressure
state during
operation of the heating circuit 152. When the discharge pressure of the refrigerant results
an abnormal high pressure state during the operation of the heating circuit 152, the high
pressure refrigerant is released from the discharge port 120 into the driving chamber 110 not
only by a single refrigerant releasing means 185 but by double refrigerant releasing means
183, 185. Therefore, the high pressure refrigerant can be swiftly released into the driving
chamber 110 to increase the pressure in the driving chamber 110 and the necessary time for
reducing the compressor discharge pressure can be minimized. Thus, the abnormal high
discharge pressure can be quickly alleviated.

Abstract: A digital image processing apparatus is provided with means for offering, for

     If a number of files thus protected are selected and processed either together or in

file whether the code applicable for the preceding file is also valid for the new file. If so,
the apparatus releases the file immediately, whereas otherwise it asks for a code again.
