Patent EP-0732732-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NGAN KENNY KING-TAI
IPC: C23C14/02
Filed: 1996-03-06
Abstract: A method of precleaning a silicon wafer to remove a layer of native silicon oxide thereon comprising adding a mixture of argon and oxygen to a plasma etch chamber (100) including a wafer (117) to be cleaned mounted on a cathode (119) in said chamber (100), while maintaining the pressure in the chamber (100) below about 0.4 Pa (3 millitorr). The oxygen is added to react with silicon atoms in the plasma but not with silicon atoms of the single crystal silicon wafer. The presence of oxygen in the plasma at low pressure ensures steady plasma generation and uniform etching across the wafer (117).

Abstract: A moving picture coding and/or decoding system includes a encoder (10) for coding input image data, a divider (14) for dividing a code string supplied from the encoder (10), into a plurality of code strings, a reorder (15) for arranging at least one of the plurality of code strings in the forward direction from the head to the end, and at least one of the other code strings in the backward direction from the head to the end. A variable-length coding system includes a code-word table for storing a plurality of code words so that the code words correspond to source symbols, and an encoder for selecting a code word corresponding to the source symbol inputted from the code-word table and for outputting the selected code word as coding data. The plurality of code words can be decoded in either of the forward and backward directions. The plurality of code words are configured so that the pause between codes can be detected by a predetermined weight of the code word (in the case of a binary code, the number of "1" or "0" in the code word).

Abstract: The invention relates to a transmission-reception system. A transponder receiver unit contained in the key bow of an ignition key has a power circuit that receivers, rectifies and smoothes the carrier wave signal transmitted together with a time reference signal and an enquiry signal from the transmission-reception ECU of a motor vehicle. A microcomputer in the transponder becomes active when the output voltage of the power circuit reaches a predetermined level or higher. When activated, the microcomputer measures the time length of the received reference time signal using the clock signal generated by an oscillation circuit, and calculates a ratio, as a correction coefficient, between the measured time length and a stored reference time value. The microcomputer decodes the enquiry signal while correcting the time information included in the time series pulse signal forming the enquiry signal, using the correction coefficient.

Abstract: In a projection type video display device according to the present invention comprising light writing type spacial light modulator, disturbances brought about by resetting pulse and appeared in projected picture as black belt or beat are prevented by causing the resetting pulse, which is to withdraw electric charges produced by incomming writing light and accumulated in spacial light modulator, to occur within a vertical blanking period synchronized with vertical synchronous signal. 
     Further, by changing the pulse width and the voltage of resetting pulse in accordance with vertical synchronous frequency, pictures of a certain fixed brightness are made available against various vertical synchronous frequencies; and even with a high vertical synchronous frequency, projected pictures are never annoyed by such disturbance that is caused by a resetting pulse dislocated out of the vertical blanking period. 
     Further, by controlling the adjustments of writing voltage to be applied to spacial light modulator during writing period and resetting voltage to be applied to spacial light modulator during resetting period, the spread in characteristics of spacial light modulator is compensated to provide a certain fixed contrast and γ characteristic. Furthermore, in a video display device for full-color display, as writing voltage and resetting voltage can be established independently corresponding to respective three RGB primary colors video outputs of any desired color temperature are obtainable by adjusting the balance of light emission among the three RGB colors.

Abstract: A coding and decoding apparatus is constructed so that the coding side transmits coded data together with identifying information for identifying the device of decoding the coded data, and the decoding side is capable of storing a number of decoding schemes so as to perform decoding based on one of the previously stored schemes. The apparatus further has devices for storing the received tools and tool-correspondent information which numerically represents the capacities of the tools so that it can make a comparison between the decoding capacity and the processing capacities of the tools to determine the possibility of the operations of the received tools. Further, a set of the tools are hierarchized so that the coded data produced by the n-ranked tool can be decoded by the (n+1)-ranked tool. Alternatively, the tools are defined in a hierarchical manner so that the decoding tools installed in the decoding apparatus will be able to assure the minimum quality and the requested decoding process can be performed by the received decoding tool. Further, the identification code of the decoding scheme used can be transmitted as required so that the decoding scheme can be expanded by transmitting the differential information from the basic decoding scheme.

Abstract: Le système décrit permet à l'utilisateur d'un téléphone mobile (11) d'utiliser les services d'un réseau intelligent (IN) spécifique de son réseau domestique, indépendamment du fait que le réseau (12, 13, 14) auquel il est connecté à ce moment peut assurer ou non le service en question. Quand l'utilisateur fait une tentative d'appel vers l'extérieur (étape 1), la signalisation associée est transmise par un canal de signalisation. Le centre mobile de commutation (MSC) (13) reconnaît l'identité du client (codée électriquement dans les signaux d'établissement d'appel) et il accède aux données concernant l'utilisateur, qui sont enregistrées dans un registre (14). Les données dans le registre (14) concernant l'utilisateur (11) comprennent un marquage l'identifiant comme un client du IN, ce qui provoque l'arrêt du processus d'appel par le MSC (13) et l'envoi d'un signal (2) ou protocole, au point de commande des services SCP (15) dans le réseau local de l'utilisateur. Le SCP (15) active à ce moment le profil des services de l'utilisateur et, décide sur la base de ce profil, de la nécessité de recevoir une information additionnelle de l'utilisateur (11), par exemple son numéro d'identification personnel (PIN) ou une autre information. Ayant identifié l'information nécessaire, le SCP envoie un message (3) au poste mobile, par exemple en demandant un code d'autorisation, qui est retournée au MS (11) par le centre de commutation MSC (13) et au poste de base BSS (12) en utilisant un protocole de signalisation. L'utilisateur, ayant reçu le message (3) répond pour que le poste mobile (11) envoie un second signal (4) par le réseau hôte vers le SCP (15). Le SCP (15) agit sur le message reçu et retourne une réponse (5) au MSC (13). Le MSC (13) va utiliser cette information, par exemple pour établir un appel, en prévoyant un canal audio complet si nécessaire (6). Ce système permet à des données d'être transmises directement entre le SCP (15) et l'utilisateur (11), alors que le réseau hôte n'a pas besoin d'être compatible avec les protocoles de signalisation, sauf pour ce qui concerne les étapes initiales et finales (1, 5). En outre, comme on utilise des canaux de signalisation, les canaux audio, ayant une largeur de bande plus importante, ne sont utilisés, seulement si et quand le processus d'appel est terminé.
