Abstract: A process for the continuous dyeing of plastic films, such as polyethylene terephthalate, is characterized by passing the film through a dye bath comprised of dye stuffs dissolved, suspended or dispersed in a liquid carrier comprised at least in part of a polymer, preferably a polyol, having at least one free hydroxyl group and a molecular weight within the range of from about 200 to about 600. The hydrogen bonding provided by the hydroxyl group, together with the high molecular weight and high boiling point of the polyol, mitigate against migration of the dye stuff out of the film, i.e., fading of the film, and impart long lasting color fastness to the film. Rapid diffusion of the dye bath into the film is enhanced by thermal and ultrasonic energization of the bath.

Abstract: Ramping voltage circuits are described for augmenting or supplying a higher power-up
slope upon initial power-up or a wake-up transition from a period of dormancy to a semiconductor
memory device. Such ramping voltage circuits are responsive to a power-up signal,
and are capable of increasing by at least two orders of magnitude the power-up slope,
thereby enabling far quicker device turn-on. In one embodiment, a level shifter is used to
ramp up the power-on voltage. In another embodiment, the internal voltage line is effectively
shorted to an external voltage line via a power-up turned-on PMOS or depletion-type NMOS
transistor.

Abstract: A compensator for optical transmission systems exploits gain tilt inherent in optical
amplifiers. The amount of SRS induced spectral power gradient is determined, and
the amplifier gain is changed to cause a compensating gain gradient in the optical
amplifier to compensate for the SRS induced spectral power gradient. Fewer
components are needed, and so it can be less expensive. It can be implemented as
a simple software upgrade to existing systems. Many such compensators can be
distributed through the system, without requiring a large inventory of individually
specified filters. More accurate compensation can be achieved by making it
dependent on the distribution of wavelengths within a band.

Abstract: An ultrasound therapy system (120) and method is provided that provides directional, focused ultrasound ( R ) to localized regions of tissue within body joints (104), such as spinal joints. An ultrasound emitter or transducer (130) is delivered to a location within the body associated with the joint and heats the target region (108) of tissue associated with the joint from the location. Such locations for ultrasound transducer placement may include for example in or around the intervertebral discs (101), or the bony structures such as vertebral bodies or posterior vertebral elements such as facet joints. Various modes of operation provide for selective, controlled heating at different temperature ranges to provide different intended results in the target tissue (108), which ranges are significantly effected by pre-stressed tissues such as in-vivo intervertebral discs. In particular, treatments above 70 degrees C, and in particular 75 degrees C, are used for structural remodeling, whereas lower temperatures achieves other responses without appreciable remodeling.

Abstract: The invention is a novel sputter target and deposition method for multi-element thin film phosphors for thick film dielectric electroluminescent displays in which the deposited phosphors provide a high luminance and colors required for TV applications. The method comprises sputtering a single composite target in a low pressure sputtering atmosphere that comprises gases containing reactive species and non-reactive species. The composite target comprising a matrix phase and an inclusion phase, or two matrix phases, wherein one of the phases comprises one or more metallic elements that contribute to the composition of the phosphor and the other of the phases comprises the remaining elements that contribute to the composition of the phosphor. In the method the pressure of the reactive species within the sputtering atmosphere is varied to control the sputtering rate of the matrix and inclusion phases of the composite target to cause the ratio of the elements in the two phases to deposit in a desired ratio as a phosphor film on the substrate.
