Title: Ultrasonic imaging by radial scan of trapezoidal sector
IPC: G10K11/34
Filed: 1991-07-18
Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system is provided for scanning with a linear transducer array and displaying an image area which is truncated with respect to a conventional triangular image sector to take the form of a trapezoid. Uniformity of image resolution and ease of signal processing enhancement is provided by transmitting adjacent ultrasonic beams at equal angular increments over the sector area. The ultrasonic beams transmitted are focused around predetermined transmit focal points and the transmit aperture employed for each transmission is determined by a transducer sensitivity criterion applied to the focal point. Means are provided for delaying signal components received from the beam directions so that the sum of the components will form a coherent echo signal. Means are provided for dynamically focusing received signal components by dynamically focusing received signal components by dynamically varying the sampling frequencies of laterally disposed signal components, and the receive aperture is dynamically varied in correspondence with the number of array elements which satisfy a sensitivity criterion at different depths of field. <IMAGE>

computer or by an application program.
Patent EP-0582538-A3 (EP)
IPC: H01L21/027
Filed: 1993-07-30
Abstract: Disclosed is a method of recovering a cyclic alkylene carbonate, such as propylene carbonate, from an effluent stream of a process in which the cyclic alkylene carbonate removes an organic photoresist material from a substrate. The effluent is a cyclic alkylene carbonate effluent, e.g., a propylene carbonate effluent, of the carbonate, water, and polymeric solids. In the recovery process the cyclic alkylene carbonate effluent is fed to a heat exchanger or evaporator (11), and separated into (i) water and volatiles, and (ii) cyclic carbonate. This lowers the concentration of water in the cyclic alkylene carbonate to a level that is low enough to substantially avoid hydrolysis of cyclic alkylene carbonate to the corresponding glycol. The dewatered cyclic alkylene carbonate is evaporated in an evaporator (41) to separate the cyclic alkylene carbonate from high boiling materials and polymeric solids. The dewatered cyclic alkylene carbonate is separated into (i) a cyclic alkylene carbonate fraction, and (ii) a photoresist solids fraction. The photoresist materials fractions contains photoresist material in the alkylene carbonate. The cyclic alkylene carbonate fraction is further separated in a fractionation colomn (71) into a higher vapor pressure alkylene glycol fraction, and a lower vapor pressure alkylene carbonate fraction. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0703718-A3 (EP)
Inventor: LINCOLN BRADFORT C
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1995-08-31
Abstract: A header and a payload in a cell are separated for
transfer between a cell interface and a host memory. The
header is transferred to a control memory. For transfer to
the host memory, the control memory initially provides a host-memory
region address and the region length. The payload is
recorded in such region. The control memory also provides a
second host-memory region address, and length, when the
payload length exceeds the payload length in the first address
region. For transfer from the host memory to the cell
interface, the control memory provides a host memory region
address and the header combines the header and the payload and
passes the combination to the cell interface. Cells from
different sources (i.e. terminals) are scheduled at table
positions dependent upon their individual transfer rates. The
cells at the scheduled positions are normally transferred in
time slots corresponding to such positions. When more than
one (1) cell is scheduled at the same position, one (1) cell
is transferred on a preset priority basis to the corresponding
time slot. The other cells are delayed for transfer
subsequently in idle time slots (i.e. no cell normally
scheduled) in the same or other priorities. The cell delays
for each source are accumulated to a maximum preset value.
When the cell delays accumulated for a source exceed the
normal time spacing between cells from that source, a cell the
source transfers a cell in an idle time slot prior to the
normally scheduled time slot to compensate for such delay.

Title: Apparatus and method for cleaning photomasks
Inventor: MAURER WILHELM
IPC: G03F1/82
Filed: 1995-12-19
Abstract: An apparatus and associated method for removing microscopic particle contaminants from an object such as a photomask or a semiconductor wafer. The apparatus utilizes an inspection device to identify the position of any particle contaminants on the target object. Once the positions of the various particle contaminants has been identified, a probe is dispatched to the position of one of the particle contaminants. The probe removes the particle contaminant from the target object and moves to a cleaning compartment, wherein the particle contaminant is removed from the probe. The probe is then moved to the next subsequent particle contaminant until all the contaminants are removed from the target object. By removing particle contaminants one-by-one from the target object, the manufacturing yield of zero defect products is greatly increased. <IMAGE>

Title: Process for obtaining polyolefins with broad bimodal or multimodal molecular weight distributions
Inventor: MICHIELS VEGA WILFRIED
IPC: C08F4/6192
Filed: 1995-12-20
Abstract: The process is characterised by the use of catalyst systems consisting of a single metallocene catalyst activated with mixtures of at least 2 co-catalysts. The co-catalysts are aluminium alkyls, aluminoxanes or boron compounds. Different active centres are produced in the catalyst through the use of these mixed co-catalyst systems, each having different rates of initiation and completion of the polymerisation reaction, which give rise to polyolefins with different molecular weights, resulting in products with broad bimodal or multimodal molecular weight distributions and the incorporation of co-monomer can be controlled by appropriate selection of the metallocene and use of combinations of different types of co-catalysts, as well as by varying the reactor pressure, the reaction temperature and the molar ratios between the various components of the catalyst system. A broad bimodal or multimodal molecular weight distribution can be achieved in both the presence and absence of hydrogen during the polymerisation reaction. Likewise broad bimodal and multimodal molecular weight distributions can be obtained in polymers by varying the order in which the components of the catalyst system are added. This process may also be used with both homogeneous and heterogenous metallocene catalysts. <IMAGE>

Filed: 1996-11-06
Abstract: Um bei Datenübertragungen zwischen einem Mobilfunknetz und einem
Telekommunikationsnetz die Datensignale an die in diesen Netzen
verwendeten Protokolle und Schrittgeschwindigkeiten anzupassen,
werden Anpassungsmittel, sogenannte "Inter Working Functions"
eingesetzt, die entweder in jeder Mobilfunkstelle des
Mobilfunknetzes implementiert werden, oder die in einer
Netzanpassungszentrale implementiert werden, die mit mehreren
Mobilfunkvermittlungsstellen verbunden ist. 
     Zum einfachen Aufbau eines Mobilfunknetzes wird eine
Netzanpassungszentrale (CIWF) vorgeschlagenm, die verschiedene
Adaptionsmittel (IWF1, ... IWFn) enthält zur Anpassung von
Datenübertragungen zwischen den mehreren
Mobilfunkvermittlungsstellen (MSC) und verschiedenen
Datenübertragungsknoten (MOD, PH, PAD, ISDN) eines
Telekommunikationsnetzes (PSTN) und die ein gesteuertes Koppelfeld

den Mobilfunkvermittlungsstellen verbindet. 
     Dadurch wird zentral im Mobilfunknetz eine Einrichtung
bereitgestellt, bei der jede der Mobilfunkvermittlungsstellen
Zugriff auf jede der verschiedenen Adaptionsmittel hat. Es müssen
somit nicht alle Adaptionsmittel mehrfach installiert werden,
sondern nur soviele, wie es bei einer mittleren Auslastung der
verfügbaren Datendienste erforderlich ist.
