Patent EP-0905288-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HABUKA HITOSHI
IPC: C30B25/18
Filed: 1997-02-28
Abstract: A method for fabricating semiconductor single crystal
thin film by supplying a reducing gas onto the surface of
a semiconductor single crystal substrate to pretreat the
substrate for removing an oxide film from the surface of
the substrate, and then supplying a reaction gas onto the
surface of the substrate to perform vapor phase growth,
wherein the ratio P 2 /P 1 , wherein P 1  represents the
reaction vessel pressure in the step of pre-treatment and
P 2  represents the highest pressure of the reaction vessel
which reaches in a period between the completion of the
pre-treatment step and the start of vapor phase growth
step, is brought to at least 10. For example, when a
silicon single crystal thin film is grown on a silicon
single crystal substrate, P 1  is brought to 0.1 atm
(absolute pressure), while P 2  is brought to 1 atm
(absolute pressure). This enables the production of an
epitaxial layer grown on a substrate by vapor phase growth,
wherein the dopant concentration is abruptly changed in
the interface between the substrate and the thin film.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un sulfure de polyarylène (PAS), dont l'extrait obtenu avec du chlorure de méthylène ne représente pas une proportion pondérale supérieure à 0,7 %, dont la viscosité V6 à l'état fondu va de 20 à 15.000 poises et dont la teneur en groupes -SX est inférieure à 15 micromoles/g, 'X' représentant un atome de métal alcalin ou d'hydrogène. Le procédé de fabrication du PAS consiste à faire entrer un sulfure de métal alcalin en réaction avec un composé dihaloaromatique dans un solvant, en l'occurrence un amide organique, une partie de la phase gazeuse contenue dans un réacteur se condensant par refroidissement d'une partie de la phase gazeuse contenue dans le réacteur, restituant ainsi le liquide de condensation dans la phase liquide. Le procédé consiste ensuite à laver, avec un solvant organique puis avec de l'eau, le sulfure de polyarylène ainsi obtenu. L'invention concerne également une composition faite, (A) de 100 parts pondérales du PAS considéré, et (B) de 0,01 à 5,0 parts pondérales d'au moins l'un des composés silanes appartenant au groupe des composés méthacryloxysilane, des composés uréidosilane, et des composés époxy silane.

Abstract: CMOS bias circuit capable of operating at supply voltages equal to the sum of a threshold voltage Vt and a saturation voltage. A current proportional to the current of PMOS transistor P1 is forced to flow through a PMOS transistor P4 by means of a negative feedback loop (P2, N3, P5, P4). PMOS transistor P4 forms a current mirror with PMOS transistor P5, so the current of NMOS transistor N3 is proportional to that of PMOS transistor P1. Transistor N3 has a large W/L in order that its gate-source voltage is slightly higher than the threshold voltage Vt. The bias voltage VB is therefore the gate-source voltage of transistor P2 needed for a current of Vt/R, R being the resistance of resistor RS. A change in the supply voltage VDD will change the current through transistor P1 and thus also through transistor N3 and through resistor RS. The change in current through the resistor RS is provided by an increase in the current of transistor P2 owing to the channel-shortening effect in transistor P2. The net result is a bias voltage VB which remains constant with changing supply voltage VDD. A PMOS transistor P3 may be added to provide a slight amount of positive feedback for very low supply voltages to increase the current of transistor N3 and to maintain a constant bias voltage VB.

Abstract: A vertical axis and transversal flow nautical propulsor continuously self-orients the blades. The propulsor includes a plurality of blades rotatable about a vertical axis; a blade supporting plate for supporting the blades, wherein the blade supporting plate is rotatable about a vertical axis independent of rotation of the blades; a motor for rotating the blade supporting plate; a motor for each blade, for rotating the blade about its own vertical axis; and a rotatable shaft. The rotatable shaft is supported by a rotor body coupled with the blade supporting plate. A plurality of spindles are provided on the rotatable shaft, wherein the spindles are coaxial with one another and with the rotatable shaft. The number of spindles corresponds to the number of blades, and the spindles are rotatable independent of one another in such a way to allow independent rotation of the relevant blade. The rotatable shaft and the spindles each have an inner end within the rotor body and an outer end outside the rotor body. The inner and outer ends of each of the spindles includes first motion transfer equipment for transferring motion from the relevant electric motor to the relevant rotating blade, and the blade axis and the axis of the relevant electric motor include corresponding second motion transfer equipment for transferring motion to the first motion transfer equipment. An interface unit is provided between an operator and a propulsor electronic control unit, wherein the motors are controllable by the electronic control unit in such a way to adjust a position and an orientation of the relevant blade in order to obtain, for any operative situation, an optimal performance over an entire operative range of the propulsor.

Abstract: Un tissu laminé étirable transversalement, présentant des faces de type étoffe, a été fabriqué selon un procédé en deux étapes. Dans la première étape, un laminé non élastique a été fabriqué par extrusion continue d'une feuille élastomère entre deux plis constitués d'une feuille fibreuse, puis assemblage des plis par application d'une pression entre un ensemble de cylindres pinceurs à espace fermé. Deux bandes longitudinales ont été découpées dans le laminé. Les rouleaux de laminé non élastique ainsi fabriqués ont été amenés à un four, puis le laminé a été déroulé et étiré dans ledit four à une température élevée, pendant que la tension sur le voile était augmentée jusqu'à étranglement des bandes. Le laminé étranglé a été enroulé de façon à former un rouleau de tension. Une fois les échantillons déroulés, curieusement ils ne s'élargissaient pas, et ils présentaient une bonne élasticité transversale (élongation et retrait élastique). Le pouvoir respirant du laminé était supérieur à celui du laminé que l'on forme en utilisant un espace entre rouleaux ouvert.
