Abstract: An electrostatic chuck (4) for holding a workpiece (2) in a low pressure environment. The chuck (4) comprises a dielectric substrate (8) fabricated of a material that does not contain polar molecules that are free to move in response to the application of an electric field (V). This avoids the problem of the workpiece (2) sticking to the chuck (4) after the energizing voltage (V) has been removed. In an environment in which high temperatures are employed, the dielectric (8) is coupled to a metallic heat conductor (23) via a plurality of metallic pins (22) that couple heat and are free to flex in response to motion caused by differentials in thermal expansion coefficients between the metal (23) and the dielectric (8). The chuck (4) is preferably fabricated from two substantially planar dielectric members (30,33) sandwiched around a brazing compound (11,13) which become electrically conductive electrodes (11,13) after the assembly is heated and then cooled.

Abstract: A retainer type connector can prevent a flexible locking piece from being broken and enhance properties of a housing and a retainer satisfactorily. In this retainer type connector, when retainers (43a) are inserted into retainer-mounting holes (41c) in a base body (41), lock arms (41e1, 41e2) employed as flexible locking pieces, which are provided on inner peripheral wall of the retainer-mounting holes (41c) to be protected from foreign substances, are readily deflected to engage with protrusions (43b1, 43b2) of the retainers (43a) employed as fixed locking pieces, thereby preventing the lock arms from being broken even if coupling and detaching operations are repeated. The base body (41) as a housing and the retainer can be made of a suitable resilient resin material and a suitable hard resin material, respectively.

Abstract: A desired portion of an image represented by compressed data can be extracted by expanding the compressed data in an expanding circuit (27) and outputting the data from the circuit (27) in accordance with clock pulses. Such clock pulses, or data transfers or addresses associated therewith, are counted so as to determine the position of the data. The determined position of the data is compared to the desired portion so as to determine whether the data is within the desired portion. If the data is determined to be within the desired portion, such data is stored in an image memory (31). As a result, such extraction may be performed without utilizing an additional memory for temporarily storing the expanded data.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method to treat non-woven sheet or web materials in order to achieve a fluid transfer capacity in one direction of the material different from the fluid transfer capacity in a crossing direction. The method involves a flexographic printing procedure for coating the material zone-wise with wetting or hydrophobizing agents. The printed nonwoven materials contain elongated, continuous hydrophilic stripes with elongated, continuous hydrophobic stripes between the hydrophilic stripes. The hydrophilic stripes transport fluid in the elongated direction, while the hydrophobic stripes prevent fluid transport to the cross direction. The nonwoven materials according to the invention can be used eg. as sublayers or transport layers in disposable, hygienic absorbent articles.

Abstract: The method provides determination of the rotor position for a rotation or linear motor e.g. a stepper motor, a synchronous motor or the like. The motor has at least two stator windings (6,60) and a rotor with imprinted poles. In a control cycle the actual value of the rotor position e.g. is angle of rotation or its displacement relative to a set target value is determined. The exciting current to achieve the target position of the rotor is then varied in dependence on the inductivity of the stator winding. A periodic measuring current is superimposed on the exciting current of the controlled stator winding (6,60). The measuring current has a greater frequency than the running frequency of the motor and it does not influence the excitation of the stator winding. The blind voltage drop across the stator winding due to the measuring current is measured and is used to determine the inductivity.

Abstract: A method for producing nucleoside-5'-phosphate ester
involves phosphorylating nucleoside biochemically. 
     Nucleoside-5'-phosphate ester is produced by
allowing an acid phosphatase, especially an acid
phosphatase having an increased affinity for a nucleoside
and/or an increased temperature stability, to act at pH
3.0 to 5.5 on a nucleoside and a phosphate group donor.
The phosphate group donor may be selected from
polyphosphoric acid or a salt thereof, phenylphosphoric
acid or a salt thereof, and carbamyl phosphate or a salt
thereof. The resulting nucleoside-5'-phosphate ester may
subsequently be collected. As an alternative to using
isolated acid phosphatase to catalyse the reaction, a
microorganism transformed with a gene encoding a protein
having acid phosphatase activity may be employed.

Abstract: In an optical communication system and an optical
transmitting device employed therein, there are two LDs
coupled to an optical transmission circuit within a
branch station. One of the LDs generates a transmission
optical signal with a wavelength λi, and the other
generates an adjustment optical signal with a wavelength
λx. These two optical signals with wavelengths λi and λx
are integrated in an optical coupler so as to be
transmitted to a branching device where ADM is carried
out, after passing through an optical amplifier where the
output level is controlled to be fixed. Therefore, by
adjusting with an adjuster the output level of the LD
generating the adjustment optical signal, the level of
the adjustment optical signal is adjusted, which makes it
possible to alter the level of a transmission signal with
the wavelength λi within the output from the optical
amplifier.
