Abstract: New techniques are presented for detection methods employed in the control, automation and operation of scale Model railroad layouts that permit new types of capabilities to be incorporated into the railroad. The invention allows reliable detection of transponder devices on a model railroad layout using conveniently low values of transponder current pulses. Processing of the detected current pulse timing and direction characteristics and then comparing these with the expected or reference current direction for the layout section allows us to reject echo pulses caused by common impedances in the layout wiring. This method overcomes the pulse echoes that have caused the failure of previous attempts to reduce this technology to practice. Allowing additional acknowledgment pulses synchronized to any transponder address sent can further enhance Transponding technology. This provides extra communication capabilities that are not limited by the rate or timing of addresses sent to any particular transponder device.

Abstract: A method and device for producing an X-ray pixel detector, for X-ray photons, the detector presenting high efficiency combined with high resolution for obtaining a high image quality detector while at the same time minimizing the X-ray dose used. The application is particularly important whenever the X-ray photon absorption distance is much longer than the required pixel size. The arrangement presents a structure based on light-guiding of secondarily produced photons within a scintillating pixel detector in conjuction with, a CCD or a CMOS pixel detector. The structure presents a matrix (8) having deep pores (10) fabricated by high-aspect ratio silicon etching techniques producing very thin walls and with a pore spacing less or equal to the size of a pixel (2) of the image detector used. The pore matrix is subsequently filled by melting a scintillating material into the pores such that, in each pore, a single scintillating block is formed. The silicon matrix (8) may further utilize a reflective layer to increase light guiding down to the image detector chip.

Abstract: Methods for integrating an authored DVD system and a WWW web browser are described. Universal Resource Locator (URL) information corresponding to sites accessible by the browser is stored in fields within the DVD data. When a user actuates a DVD element that has a corresponding URL, the web browser displays information from that site. When the user actuates an HTML menu or other browser-implemented feature, the DVD system accesses a portion of the DVD data specified in the menu. This arrangement provides for two-way communication, i.e., HTML in the browser is able to control DVD content and vice-versa. Having the WWW information embedded in the DVD brings a number of benefits, the foremost of which is the ability to write a one size fits all template web page that can interrogate the DVD for URL information and present WWW content corresponding to the URL synchronized with the DVD information.

Abstract: A building panel has a reinforcing mesh embedded in a concrete slab formed by pressing. The reinforcing mesh is formed of wire rods each of which has at least one flat face. The rods are welded together with the flat faces of the rods abutting one another so that contact between the wire rods occurs over an area. Wire mesh of this kind has considerably enhanced weld shear strength. The panels are formed by pressing so that the concrete mix becomes dense and generally homogeneous. The high structural strength of such panels makes them ideal for use in constructing block and beam foundations and for use in walls, ceilings and flooring.

Abstract: A method for curing low k dielectric materials uses very short, relatively high temperature cycles instead of the conventionally used (lower temperature/longer time) thermal cycles. A substrate, such as a semiconductor wafer, coated with a layer of coating material is heated to an elevated temperature at a heating rate of greater than about 20° C. per second. Once the coating material has been converted to a low dielectric constant material with desired properties, the coated substrate is cooled. Alternatively, spike heating raises and promptly lowers the temperature of the coated substrate to effect curing in one or a series of spike heating steps. The method allows for a thinner refractory barrier metal layer thickness to prevent copper diffusion, and uses shorter curing times resulting in higher throughput.
