Abstract: In a semiconductor fabrication technique, a first patterned layer (16) of nonmonocrystalline semiconductor material is created on a substructure (10, 12, and 14). An insulating layer (22) is thermally grown along the patterned layer in such a way that the upper edge of the remainder (16A) of the patterned layer forms an asperity (24). A blanket layer 26, preferably consisting of nonmonocyrstalline semiconductor material, is formed over the insulating layer. Using an etchant that attacks the blanket and patterned layers more than the insulating layer, a selective etch is performed to remove a section of the blanket layer. The etch is continued past the blanket layer to remove the underlying portion of the insulating layer located along the asperity and then, importantly, to remove the so exposed part of the asperity. The remainder (26A) of the blanket layer overlies the remainder (24A) of the asperity. The technique is particularly useful in manufacturing a floating-gate FET for an electrically erasable programmable device. The remainder of the asperity facilitates tunneling during erasure.

Abstract: Multi-element high energy particle detector modules (1) comprise a planar heavy metal carrier (3) of tungsten alloy with planar detector units (9) uniformly distributed over one planar surface (5). The detector units (9) are secured to the heavy metal carrier (3) by electrically conductive adhesive (29) so that the carrier serves as a common ground. The other surface (7) of each planar detector unit (9) is electrically connected to a feedthrough electrical terminal (13) extending through the carrier for front or rear readout. The feedthrough electrical terminals (13) comprise sockets (15) at one face of the carrier (3) and mating pins (19) projecting from the other face, so that any number of modules (1) may be plugged together to create a stack of modules (37) of any desired number of radiation lengths. The detector units (9) each comprise four, preferably rectangular, p-i-n diode chips (27) arranged around the associated feedthrough terminal (13) to form a square detector unit providing at least 90% detector element coverage of the carrier (3). Integral spacers (11) projecting from the carriers (3) extend at least partially along the boundaries between detector units (9) to space the p-i-n diode chips (27) from adjacent carriers in a stack. The spacers (11) along the perimeters of the modules are one-half the width of the interior spacers (11) so that when stacks of modules (37) are arranged side by side to form a large array (39) of any size or shape, distribution of the detector units (9) is uniform over the entire array.

Abstract: The polymerization of alpha-olefins in a gas phase involves the problem of agglomeration of the product into particles disadvantageous from the viewpoint of its handl­ing. In the present invention this problem has been solved by means of a new type of process for the homo- or copoly­merization of alpha-olefins. In the process the catalyst system is pretreated by contacting and reacting a transi­tion-metal compound which is solid or on a solid carrier with an organoaluminum compound, and possibly an electron donor, in a liquid medium, and by drying the thus formed reaction product to produce a solid catalyst system. The thus pretreated solid and active catalyst system is then fed together with an alpha-olefin in the gaseous state into a gas-phase reactor, and polymerization is carried out by contacting them with each other. By feeding a dry and ac­tive catalyst system into the gas-phase reactor, it is possible to avoid the agglomeration of the product which occurs in conventional processes in which an organoaluminum compound and possibly an electron donor are fed in a liquid medium into the reactor.

Abstract: The torque transmission device (7) comprises a rotational housing (13) to which a driving power from an engine is applied and a cylindrical shaft (14) which is drivingly connected to the rear axle. The housing (13) receives a clutch (17) for transmitting torque from the housing to the cylindrical shaft, a piston (16) located adjacent to the clutch (17) and a mechanism (15) having an input rotational shaft (31) and generating a pressure so as to actuate the clutch mechanism through the piston. The torque transmission device further comprises a mechanism (30) connected to the housing (13) and the cylindrical shaft (14) for amplifying a rotational speed difference therebetween in order to rotate the input rotational shaft (31) of the pressure generating mechanism (15) at an amplified speed. When the rotational speed difference occurs between the housing (13) and the cylindrical shaft (14), the speed difference is amplified by the amplifying mechanism (30) and then applied to the pressure generating mechanism (15). As a result, a large pressure is quickly generated and actuates the clutch (17) via the piston (16).

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of driving a solid-state imaging device for discharging optical charge stored in a channel area of a solid-state imaging device so as to adjust an exposure. In a solid-state imaging device having a horizontal-type overflow drain structure in which an overflow drain is formed at a channel stop for dividing a channel area, optical charge stored in the channel area is transferred in an opposite direction to a reading direction during a vertical scanning period and a potential barrier between the channel area and the overflow drain is extinguished during the period of transfer of the optical charge, thereby discharging the optical charge. The optical charge stored again in the channel area is transferred in the reading direction within a blanking period during the vertical scanning period. In a method of driving a solid-­state imaging device having a vertical-type overflow drain structure in which a channel area is formed by being divided in a diffusion area formed on a semiconductor substrate, optical charge stored in the channel area is transferred in an opposite direction to a reading direction during a vertical scanning period and a potential barrier between the channel area and the semiconductor substrate is extinguished during the period of transfer of the optical charge, thereby discharging the optical charge. The optical charge stored   again in the channel area is transferred in the reading direction within a blanking period during the vertical scanning period. An exposure of the solid-state imaging device is adjusted by means of a discharge timing.

Abstract: The device contains a sensing member (F) which extends over the weaving width and round which the warp yarns (2) are partially looped and which has sensors (S1 to Sn), arranged next to one another, for measuring the tension of the warp yarns (2) bearing against the respective sensor (S1 to Sn). An evaluation of the measured tension is carried out for each sensor (S1 to Sn). To detect warp-yarn breaks, the signal of each sensor (S1 to Sn) is analysed for the occurrence of an abrupt decrease and each such decrease is interpreted as a break of a warp yearn bearing against the respective sensor. There is therefore no need for the conventional warp catcher lamellae, and moreover the run-off of the warp yarns can be controlled. <IMAGE>
