of non-single-crystalline semiconductors formed on the
substrate, and a surface material covering the
semiconductor junctions; wherein the semiconductor
junctions have respective absorption spectra different

rates different from each other, and a photo-current
generated by the semiconductor junction of the least
deterioration rate is larger than that by the
semiconductor junction of the greatest deterioration
rate in a state of absence of the surface material, and
wherein the surface material absorbs light in a range
corresponding to a part of the absorption spectrum of
the semiconductor junction of the least deterioration
rate, so that the photo-current generated by the
semiconductor junction of the least deterioration rate

Abstract: An imaging device comprises a semiconductor substrate including
an array of pixel cells. Each pixel cell comprising an individually
addressable pixel circuit for accumulating charge resulting from
radiation incident on a pixel detector. The pixel circuit and the
pixel detector can either be implemented on a single substrate, or on
two substrates bonded together. The charge storage device can be a
transistor, for example one of a pair of FETs connected as a cascode
amplification stage. An imaging plane can be made up of one imaging
device or a plurality of imaging devices tiled to form a mosaic. The
imaging devices may be configured as a slot for certain applications,
the slit or slot being scanned over the imaging plane. Control
electronics can include addressing logic for addressing individual
pixel circuits for reading accumulated charge from the pixel circuits.
Imaging optimisation can be achieved by determining maximum and minimum
charge values for pixels for display, assigning extreme grey scale or
colour values to the maximum and minimum charge values and allocating
grey scale or colour values to an individual pixel according to a
sliding scale between the extreme values. Scattered radiation can be
detected and discarded by comparing the detected pixel value to a
threshold value related to a minimum detected charge value expected for
directly incident radiation and discarding detected pixel values less
than said threshold value.

Abstract: A system and method for treatment of a feed material includes a
reactor chamber in a reactor vessel. The reactor vessel has a longitudinal
axis which is vertically oriented so that gravitational forces act generally in a
direction along the axis between a top and a bottom of the vessel. A feed
material is introduced by a nozzle into the reactor chamber as a jet stream
through the top end of the vessel. This jet stream causes back-mixing in the
reactor chamber, contributing to rapid initiation of reaction and general down
flow of material through the reactor chamber. The material in the reactor
chamber can be quenched to dissolve sticky solids in the effluent before the
effluent is discharged from the lower end of the vessel. Further, the reactor
vessel can include a plug flow section to carry out additional reaction of the
feed material.

Abstract: In a switch structure for circuit switching, part of the space switch functionality of a time-space (TS) switch core is broken out and arranged in groups of switch adapter boards, and the TS-switch core itself is divided into a matrix of smaller and independent TS-modules that are associated with the switch adapter boards. Each group of switch adapter boards is co-operating with a predetermined row of TS-modules in the matrix for input of data to the TS-modules in that row, and with a predetermined column of TS-modules in the matrix for output of data from the TS-modules of that column. In this way, it is possible to implement the switch structure into a number of subracks with a reasonable number of interconnections between different subracks, thus obtaining a truly modular TS-switch structure.

Abstract: A pair of memory cells for use in a DRAM are formed
in a monocrystalline bulk portion of a silicon wafer by
first forming a pair of vertical trenches spaced apart by
a bulk portion of the wafer. After a dielectric layer is
formed over the walls of each trench, the trenches are
each filled with polycrystalline silicon. By a pair of
recess forming and recess filling steps there is formed
at the top of each trench a silicon region that was grown
epitaxially with the intermediate bulk portion. Each
epitaxial region is made to serve as the body of a
separate transistor having its drain in the lower
polysilicon fill of a trench, and its source in the
monocrystalline bulk intermediate between the two
epitaxial regions. The lower polysilicon fill of each
trench is also made to serve as the storage node of the
capacitor of each cell, with the bulk serving as the
other plate of the capacitor.

Abstract: A rivet setting tool (12) is provided with a cycle control whereby a pressure switch (250,252)
or pressure transducer enables the electronic logic controller (34) to monitor tool hydraulic
pressure. When the pressure reaches a predetermined threshold and subsequently
drops below a second threshold valve the controller deduces that a rivet has been set
and removes pressure from the tool (12) so that the tool (12) can be immediately reset, thus
reducing the tools cycle time. Upon determining that a rivet (R) has been set, a mandrel
collection window is set. The controller (34) monitors whether a mandrel (M) is returned to
the mandrel collection system (47) prior to the expiration of the timed window, and if not,
the controller (34) provides a fault signal to the operator. Multiple windows are utilized so
that more than one mandrel (M) can be in the return tube (49) at one time without delaying
operation of rivet setting system (10). The pressure sensors (250,252) can also be utilized to confirm
that a rivet (R) has been loaded into the rivet setting tool (12) without the use of a rivet sensor.
