Abstract: Silicon carbide structures are fabricated by fabricating a nitrided oxide layer on a layer of silicon carbide and annealing the nitrided oxide layer in an environment containing hydrogen. Such a fabrication of the nitrided oxide layer may be provided by forming the oxide layer in at least one of nitric oxide and nitrous oxide and/or annealing an oxide layer in at least one of nitric oxide and nitrous oxide. Alternatively, the nitrided oxide layer may be provided by fabricating an oxide layer and fabricating a nitride layer on the oxide layer so as to provide the nitrided oxide layer on which the nitride layer is fabricated. Furthermore, annealing the oxide layer may be provided as a separate step and/or substantially concurrently with another step such as fabricating the nitride layer or performing a contact anneal. The hydrogen environment may be pure hydrogen, hydrogen combined with other gases and/or result from a hydrogen precursor. Anneal temperatures of 400°C or greater are preferred.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for protecting a die (1) from damage due to material jams in the material stamping equipment, wherein the material is advanced through the die by press feed rollers (6) powered by a drive motor (5). The position error, of the rollers (6) is monitored by the resolver (11), and the torque, of the drive motor (5) is monitored by a strain gauge (10), during the advance of the material through the die. The monitored position error or torque of the motor (5) is compared to the expected position error or the expected torque. If the monitored position error or torque deviates by more than a tolerance value from the expected position error or torque then the material is moved backwards to a previous position, typically the position at which the material was last stamped. The operation of the material stamping equipment may be stopped after the material is moved back if desired.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate frequency hopping in a single carrier FDMA wireless environment by dynamically altering user offsets with time to obtain interference diversity. A channel tree can be utilized with nodes that are assigned values. User devices can be assigned to such nodes, a path between an assigned node and a root node in the channel tree can be evaluated, and a table lookup can be performed to determine an identity of a subcarrier set to assign to the user device assigned to a given node, as well as a number of subcarriers to be assigned to the user device. Additionally, node values can be dynamically varied during a communication event to alter path values and thus alter subcarrier set assignments.
