Title: Element a surface electroluminescente et dispositif electroluminescent de type a autobalayage
Inventor: KUSUDA YUKIHISA
IPC: H01L33/38
Filed: 1996-09-24
Abstract: L'invention concerne un élément à surface électroluminescente présentant un rendement d'émission lumineuse extérieure amélioré et un dispositif électroluminescent à autobalayage comprenant cet élément à surface électroluminescente. Pour améliorer le rendement de l'émission lumineuse extérieure, on décale le centre électroluminescent vers une zone non recouverte d'un couche de protection contre la lumière. Pour y parvenir, on dispose une couche isolante sur la partie de l'électrode au-dessus de laquelle se trouve une couche de protection contre la lumière, dans la partie au contact de la couche semiconductrice sous-jacente, pour empêcher le courant injecté de s'écouler depuis cette partie d'électrode. Pour intensifier l'émission lumineuse, on allonge la périphérie de l'électrode. Avec une électrode d'une surface donnée, plus cette périphérie est longue, plus l'émission lumineuse est intense car le courant injecté depuis l'électrode est réparti uniformément sur toute la surface, ce qui uniformise l'émission de lumière. Quand l'élément à surface électroluminescente est un thyristor à structure PNPN, il convient de prévoir une construction telle qu'elle empêche qu'une partie du courant injecté s'écoule vers l'électrode de commande, ce qui améliore le rendement de l'émission lumineuse extérieure. Le dispositif électroluminescent à autobalayage se fabrique avec ce type d'élément à surface électroluminescente.

Abstract: A process for purifying exhaust gas from a gasoline engine of the fuel-direct-injection type purifies exhaust gas that varies, in response to changes in the air-fuel ratio, between the first exhaust-gas state featured by an air-fuel ratio in the vicinity of the stoichiometrical air-fuel ratio and the second exhaust-gas state that forms a more oxidizing, low-temperature atmosphere and that is featured by an air-fuel ratio greater than the stoichiometrical air-fuel ratio, by using an exhaust-gas purifying catalyst (12) that contains at least one kind of noble metals, such as platinum, and transition metals. With the above-mentioned process, exhaust gas, which is discharged from a gasoline engine of the fuel-direct-injection type (1) that allows the air-fuel ratio to change between the stoichiometrical air-fuel ratio and air-fuel ratios within the lean burn mode, is purified by using the single purifying-use catalyst; therefore, it is possible to simplify the purifying operation for exhaust gas whose compositions and temperature vary widely due to frequent changes in the air-fuel ratio.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne une prise d'eau (10) comprenant un conduit (12) qui se trouve en communication avec une source de fluide par une extrémité, et avec l'air libre par l'autre extrémité. Une cartouche à clapet (100) placée dans le conduit (12) comprend un corps (104) de cartouche possédant un orifice de refoulement (108), ainsi qu'un clapet (42) monté dans le corps (104) de la cartouche. Le clapet (42) peut passer d'une position ouverte, où il est traversé par le débit de fluide qui s'écoule vers l'air libre selon une première direction, à une position fermée où le débit du fluide est bloqué. Une tige d'actionnement (102) est connectée au clapet (42) et dépasse du corps (104) de la cartouche afin de pouvoir faire passer ledit clapet (42) en position ouverte ou fermée. La tige d'actionnement possède un orifice casse-vide (122) espacé de l'orifice de refoulement (108) le long de l'axe. Un clapet anti-retour (124) situé dans le passage du fluide entre l'orifice casse-vide (122) et l'orifice de refoulement (108), permet de bloquer l'écoulement du fluide à travers la cartouche à clapet (100) dans une direction opposée à la première, tout en permettant au fluide de s'écouler vers l'air libre. Ce clapet anti-retour comprend un élément d'étanchéité (126) permettant de fermer hermétiquement l'orifice de refoulement (108) et entrant en interaction avec un élément piston (128) qui va fermer hermétiquement l'orifice casse-vide (122), l'élément piston (128) effectuant un mouvement de va et vient par rapport à l'élément d'étanchéité (126). L'élément piston (128) et l'élément d'étanchéité (126) vont simultanément fermer de manière étanche l'orifice casse-vide (122) et l'orifice de refoulement (108) lorsque ledit élément piston se trouve en position d'extension par rapport à l'élément d'étanchéité.

Abstract: To mitigate the adverse effects of the load imbalance phenomenon prevalent in spread spectrum, multi-carrier wireless communication systems, the system beneficially employs the use of handoff as a means for balancing the call traffic (commonly referred to as 'load') among a plurality of carriers within the communication system. The multi-carrier wireless communication system monitors (214) a plurality of metrics corresponding to the loading of each of the plurality of carriers in the communication system and, based upon the metrics, will handoff (220) call traffic to and between the plurality of carriers, thereby mitigating the adverse effects associated with the load imbalance, in accordance with the invention.

Abstract: A base station generates a mobile station identifier
indicating the mobile station to which data are to be sent and
the first slot having a data signal when it has a data signal
having a length which can be sent through one slot of a TDMA
radio channel. The base station generates the first slot and a
continuous slot containing at least a portion of the data signal
when it has a data signal having a length which cannot be sent
through one signal slot. The base station sends the first slot
through a starting slot in a fixed position for each mobile
station on the TDMA radio channel, and the continuous slot
through the next slot of the starting slot. The mobile slot
receives the starting slot but stops the reception unless the
starting slot is the first slot. The mobile station identifies the
mobile station identifier, when the starting slot is the first slot,
but stops the reception if the mobile station identifier does not
specify the mobile station but another mobile station, and
receives the continuous slot if the identifier specifies the
mobile station.

Processeur de commande de test (100) et carte de test (101) pour l'essai en séries de circuits intégrés (00, 01, 10, 11, 20,....). Des cellules de la colonne de test sont sélectionnées au moyen d'une partie des adresses qui identifie une rangée dans la matrice principale du dispositif. Un test est exécuté pour déterminer une caractéristique du dispositif, test dont les résultats sont mis en correspondance avec la partie de l'adresse qui identifie une rangée de la matrice. On obtient ainsi une adresse code caractéristique du dispositif qui indique les résultats du test. L'accès à la colonne de test est validé et un bit est écrit en réponse à l'adresse code caractéristique dans une cellule mémoire de la colonne de test. Pendant la fabrication, la colonne de test est lue pour classer le dispositif selon la caractéristique. De cette manière, il est possible de stocker sous forme de tables de consultation des quantités importantes de données sur les caractéristiques du dispositif sans qu'il faille faire appel à de gros volumes de mémoire de ce dernier, ainsi que de réduire considérablement les besoins en mémoires du système de test.
