Abstract: Electro-magnetic transducers are provided having a p-type IIB-VIA layer with N D /N A  less than or equal to 0.8 interfacing an n-type layer, the p-type layer being doped with a group VA element or oxygen by injection into a molecular beam epitaxy chamber of free-radicals of the dopant from an RF plasma free-radical source. These electro-magnetic transducers are particularly useful in light emitting diodes or diode lazers since in a blue light emitting diode they produce a dominant peak emission at 465nm.

Abstract: The apparatus enables access authorization to be assigned
solely to specific host devices. A control device (106)
comprises: an address registration unit (104), in which the
host address of each host device has been registered for
authorizing access, a command interpretation and execution
unit (102) which on receipt of a command from a host device
via a host device interface outputs the host address of the
host device based on the command, and an address
verification unit (103) for verifying the host address
output from a command interpretation and execution unit
(102) against the host address registered in the address
registration unit (104), as well as determining whether or
not the particular host device has access authorization.
The command interpretation and execution unit (102)
incorporates an authorization pending function, so that on
receipt of a command from a host device, the command is
interpreted and executed only after access is authorized by
the address verification unit (103).

Abstract: A regulated BICMOS output buffer (34) improves interfacing
to loads such as 3.3 volt integrated circuits. The output buffer
(34) provides a first voltage to a base of a pullup transistor (116)
in response to a difference between an input voltage and a
reference voltage. An emitter of the pullup transistor (116)
provides an output signal. A second transistor (102) having
characteristics matching those of the pullup transistor (116)
receives the first voltage at its base, and provides the input
voltage at its emitter. The output buffer (34) changes the first
voltage until the voltage at the base of the second transistor
(102) equals the reference voltage. Thus, signal reflections on
the output signal do not affect the performance of the output
buffer. Clamps (99, 120) coupled to the base and emitter of the
pullup transistor (116) provide soft clamping according to a
square law.

Abstract: Virtual dedicated access of telecommunication subscribers (12, 14 and 16) to an inter-exchange carrier (20) is provided by way of an intelligent local End Office switch (180) that routes calls either to the IXC or to a local End Office switch (18). The intelligent local End Office switch (180) advantageously serves to perform inter-exchange processing of calls, as required, for calls that originate with, or terminate at, a customer rather than automatically route calls to the IXC for such inter-exchange processing, as was previously required.

Abstract: To convert the multiple-bit-resolution intensity information for a colour component of a given pixel into the ink-on or ink-off command required to control a printer, the source values for different pixels are compared with thresholds in a "dither matrix" of different thresholds for different pixels, and a given pixel is printed if the source value exceeds the dither-matrix value for that pixel. Different dither matrices are employed for different colour components, with the result that lighter-colour areas have a smoother appearance than would result if a common dither matrix were employed for all colour components.

Abstract: A mirror assembly security system for a vehicle
includes an exterior mirror assembly (26) and a light
module removably positioned within the exterior mirror
housing. The light module is moisture impervious and
includes an enclosure, a light-emitting opening in the
enclosure, a light source (60) in the enclosure radiating
light through the light-emitting opening, and a cover for
the light-emitting opening adapted to direct the light
from the light source (60) to an area adjacent the
vehicle to create a security area. The light source (60)
may be supported by a pair of electrical contacts
provided on the inner surface of the enclosure. The
enclosure wall supporting the electrical contacts is
preferably flexible, in order to allow the light source
to be captured by the contacts. Attachment of the cover
adds rigidity to the enclosure to prevent further flexure
of the enclosure wall in order to firmly retain the light
source. The enclosure is preferably configured so that
the same unit can be installed in both left and right
handed exterior mirror assemblies even though the light
module generates a non-symmetrical light pattern. A
reflective surface (28) is provided in the enclosure
which cooperates with the cover to produce a generally
collimated light pattern.

Abstract: Encoded information is provided about how an image (51) is rendered.
When the image (51) is initially rendered, preselected colors are used. The
image (51) is re-rendered so that colors used to re-render the image (51)
encode information about how the image (51) was originally rendered. For
example, the colors for the re-rendered image (51) indicate for each part of
the image (51), the number of vertices included in that part of the image (51).
Alternatively, the colors for the re-rendered image (51) indicate for each part
of the image (51), which type of primitive within a graphics library (22) is
used to re-render the first part of the image (51), or the colors for the re-rendered
image (51) indicate for each part of the image (51), scheduling path

Abstract: A carbohydrate is added to sand, which has been used to make foundry moulds or cores, and which has been bonded using an alkaline resol phenol-formaldehyde resin, prior to reclamation of the sand by a thermal reclamation. The thermal reclamation may be done in other equipment, for example, a rotary thermal reclamation unit, but is preferably done in a fluidized bed reclamation unit. The carbohydrate is preferably water soluble and is added to the used sand as an aqueous solution. The carbohydrate may be for example a monosaccharide, such as glucose, mannose, galactose or fructose, or a disaccharide such as sucrose, maltose or lactose. The carbohydrate may also be a carbohydrate derivative such as a polyhydric alcohol (e.g., ethylene glycol, glycerol, pentaerythritol, xylitol, mannitol or sorbitol), a sugar acid (e.g., gluconic acid), or a polysaccharide derivative (e.g., a starch hydrolysate, i.e., a glucose syrup or a dextrin). The amount of carbohydrate used in the reclamation process is usually of the order of 0.25% to 5.0% by weight based on the weight of used sand.

Abstract: Transducer housing for mounting in a port in an engine combustion
chamber has a metal diaphragm exposed to the combustion gasses. The
pressure of the combustion gasses is transferred through an aluminum coupling
disc which deflects a simply supported beam member. The beam member is
formed of refractory material having epitaxially grown crystalline piezoresistors
formed on one surface of the beam member and connected in a bridge circuit
and is secured to a ceramic mounting disc. The aluminum coupling disc has a
relatively high coefficient of thermal expansion which maintains a preload on the
beam member for improved accuracy in spite of the low thermal expansion of the
ceramic mounting disc. In an alternate embodiment, an expansion ring made of
a material having a relatively high coefficient of thermal expansion is used to
support a mounting disc on which the beam member is supported. The high
expansion rate of the expansion ring maintains a preload between the beam
member and a cup diaphragm by compensating for the relatively low expansion
of the ceramic mounting disc.

Abstract: A mesa-structure avalanche photodiode in which a buffer region (130) in the
surface of the mesa structure (120) effectively eliminates the sharply-angled, heavily
doped part of the cap layer (110) that existed adjacent the lightly-doped n-type
multiplication layer (108) and p-type guard ring (140) before the buffer region was
formed. This reduces the electric field strength at the ends of the planar epitaxial P-N
junction (114) and prevents edge breakdown in this junction. The lateral extent
of the guard ring is defined by a window (162) formed in a masking layer (164)
prior to regrowth of the guard ring. This guard ring structure eliminates the
need to perform additional processing steps to define the lateral extent of the guard
ring and to passivate the periphery of the guard ring.

and a second processor (106) having a low power
consumption mode and a normal power mode, for effecting

thereof to the normal power mode when it is informed
from the first processor (105) that the added
