Abstract: The invention provides a very efficient and reliable method for electrically connecting the electrodes of an electronic device, e.g., IC chips (1), and the electrodes of, for example, a glass-made cir­cuit board substrate (3) with good repairability. Thus, the electrodes of the IC chip are first coated each with an electroconductive ther­mally meltable adhesive resinous composition (2) to form a resinous bump, the IC chip is mounted on the substrate with the adhesive-­coated electrodes contacting with the respective electrodes of the substrate, and remelting and then solidifying the resinous bumps so that the electrodes are bonded and electrically connected togeth­er. As compared with the conventional methods in which an elec­troconductive thermosetting resinous composition is used for the bumps on the electrodes, the electrical connection can be obtained with a smaller thermal effect and good replaceability of the IC chip found unacceptable with an acceptable one.

Abstract: Depending on the length of the optical waveguide and on other factors, a signal coupled into the optical waveguide from a laser transmitter is attenuated by the time it emerges at the other end of the optical waveguide. The received signal can be satisfactorily evaluated only if the reception power is neither too low nor too high. By means of the proposed circuit arrangement, both the transmitter and the receiver are always operated within an optimum range, whereby manual adjustments may in certain circumstances even be dispensed with completely. For this purpose, an optical power meter and an evaluation device are disposed at the receiving end and output signals of this evaluation device are fed via a backward channel to the laser transmitter. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus for and a method of addressing data storage elements (16) employs an ionizable gas to address the storage elements for storing data in and reading data out of them. The storage elements are defined by the overlapping areas of multiple column electrodes (18) extending in a common direction on a first substrate (48) and multiple channels (20) extending in a common direction on a second substrate (54). A layer of dielectric material (46) separates the first and the second substrates, which are positioned face-to-face and spaced-apart with the direction of the channels transverse to that of the column electrodes. Each of the channels is filled with an ionizable gas and includes a reference potential electrode and a row electrode electrically isolated from each other. The column electrodes receive data drive signals, and the row electrodes and reference potential electrodes receive data strobe signals. The addressing apparatus is configured so that for each storage element the ionizable gas functions as an electrical switch that changes between a conducting or plasma state and a nonconducting or de-ionized state in response to an applied data strobe signal. The ionizable gas functions to either store data in or read data out of the storage element. If the storage element includes a layer (44) of material having electro-optic properties and receives incident image-carrying light, the ionizable gas functions to select and store image data across the layer and thereby provide a display system having gray scale luminance.

Abstract: High side lobes shown in a hologram efficiency curve are suppressed by reducing the effective sensi­tivity of a holographic recording medium (11) by a plurality of film layers of gelatin (16, 18, 20) such that there is a continuous increase in sensitivity toward the center of the layers. This makes the recording medium more spectrally selective and increases the "see-through" characteristic. A holo­graphic fringe pattern with a normally uniform modulation recorded in such holographic medium layers will produce a hologram having a modulation in refractive index which is virtually zero at the surfaces and which increases toward the center of the medium. The layers in the recording medium can have varying degrees of photosensitivity. However, when combined, the layers provide an overall sensitivity which can be depicted as a generally sinusoidal curve. The generally smooth transition in sensitivity from one layer to the next is largely achieved by the mixing of layers at their interfaces.
