Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'un dispositif semi-conducteur comportant une zone épitaxiale semi-conductrice (23, 42). Ce procédé comporte plusieurs opérations: dépôt d'une première couche de matière isolante (8), d'une première couche de silicium non monocristallin (9) et une seconde couche de matière isolante (10), dans cet ordre, sur la plaquette de silicium (1); création, par attaque chimique, d'une fenêtre (15, 38) à parois en forte pente (16, 39) au travers de la seconde couche de matière isolante et de la première couche de silicium non monocristallin; dépôt d'une couche protectrice (19, 40) sur les parois de la fenêtre; enlèvement par attaque chimique sélective de la première couche isolante à l'intérieur de la fenêtre et en dessous d'un bord (21, 41) de la première couche de silicium non monocristallin jouxtant la fenêtre jusqu'à découvrir, à l'intérieur de la fenêtre et en dessous du bord considéré, non seulement la première couche de silicium non monocristallin, mais aussi la surface de la plaquette; dépôt sélectif de matière semi-conductrice jusqu'à constituer la zone semi-conductrice épitaxiale sur la surface découverte de la plaquette, et à constituer, sur le bord découvert de la première couche de silicium non monocristallin, un bord de matière semi-conductrice polycrystalline (24, 43) raccordée à la zone semi-conductrice épitaxiale; dépôt d'une couche intercalaire isolante (26, 45) sur la couche protectrice de la paroi de la fenêtre; et dépôt d'une seconde couche de silicium non monocristallin (28, 47). La présence d'une couche supérieure (11) de matière sur laquelle la matière semi-conductrice non monocristalline peut croître pendant le dépôt sélectif de matière semi-conductrice, laquelle couche supérieure est déposée sur la seconde couche de matière isolante avant le dépôt sélectif de matière semi-conductrice, permet une meilleure surveillance du processus de dépôt sélectif.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de correction d'amplitude d'une pluralité de signaux optiques de différentes longueurs d'ondes, les signaux optiques étant injectés par une première extrémité d'une fibre optique. Le procédé consiste, avant de les envoyer dans la fibre optique (5), à amplifier les signaux jusqu'à un niveau selon lequel l'un au moins des signaux dépasse une valeur de seuil (TSBS) de stimulation Brillouin stimulée (SBS) caractéristique de la fibre, et ce, defaçon qu'une partie de l'énergie du signal dans la fibre se transfère en un signal de Stokes se propageant dans la fibre (5) dans un sens opposé au signaux optiques considérés. L'invention concerne également un correcteur d'amplitude destiné à une pluralité de signaux optiques de différentes longueurs d'ondes. Ce correcteur comporte une fibre optique (5) caractérisée, d'une part par une extrémité d'entrée (6) par laquelle les signaux sont injectés dans la fibre, et d'autre part par une extrémité de sortie (10) d'où les signaux peuvent être repris après correction. La fibre est affectée d'une valeur de seuil (TSBS) de stimulation Brillouin stimulée (SBS) caractéristique qui correspond, en extrémité de sortie (10) de la fibre, à une valeur d'amplitude maximale définie pour les signaux optiques.

Abstract: Mooring apparatus, and method of use thereof, for marine vessels, comprising a subsea anchor (12) such as a suction pile (14), and including a swivel (16) to which at least one mooring line (24) is connected, the other end of the mooring line being adapted for connection to the bow mooring apparatus of a marine vessel (22) such as a conventional tanker. The mooring line (24) includes a load cell for measuring tension applied to the line by reverse thrust of the vessel. Signals from the load cell are transmitted from the bow of the vessel to the bridge (40), enabling manual, automatic or semi-automatic control of the applied tension. In use, the mooring line is maintained under tension such that the vessel may weathervane around the swivel. The system may be employed as part of a subsea fluid product export system for offloading the product to a tanker moored using the system, employing a flexible riser (20) having its lower end connected to a subsea product source and its upper end connected to the fluid manifold of the tanker via a floating hose assembly (34). The system is also useful in other applications.

Abstract: The method involves using a robot (10) model with one or more parameters describing the theoretical spatial position of the robot depending on one or more control parameters. The parameters control the theoretical demanded spatial position of the robot, detecting the actual spatial position in operation using a sensor (K1,K2;50). Dynamic variations using the deviation of the detected actual position from the theoretical demanded position are detected, and the parameter(s) of the model are matched to compensate the dynamic variations. The theoretical spatial demanded position of the robot with the robot controller (100) is controlled according to the matched parameter(s). An Independent claim is also included for a robot controller.
