Abstract: A process for fabricating vertical CMOS devices, featuring variable channel
lengths, has been developed. Channel region openings are defined in composite
insulator stacks, with the channel length of specific devices determined by the
thickness of the composite insulator stack. Selective removal of specific
components of the composite insulator stack, in a specific region, allows the depth
of the channel openings to be varied. A subsequent epitaxial silicon growth
procedure fills the variable depth channel openings, providing the variable length,
channel regions for the vertical CMOS devices.

Abstract: Materials and methods are provided for producing preform materials for impact-resistant composite materials suitable for liquid molding. An interlayer (6; 12) comprising a spunbonded, spunlaced, or mesh fabric is introduced between non-crimped layers of unidirectional reinforcing fibers (2; 14) to produce a preform for use in liquid-molding processes to produce composite materials. Interlayer material (6; 12) remains as a separate phase from matrix resin after infusion, and curing of the preform provides increased impact resistance by increasing the amount of energy required to propagate localized fractures due to impact. Constructions having the interlayer materials melt-bonded to the reinforcing fibers (2; 14) demonstrate improved mechanical performance through improved fiber alignment compared to other fabrication and preforming methods.

measured. The difference dZ between bulk fluid and interfacial impedance is
computed from the current difference. The rate of change ΔdZ of the impedance
difference is determined over a time interval and a physiochemical parameter (X)
determined when ΔdZ is positive from lubricant with known amounts of
constituents selected from the group consisting of (a) Phosphorus, Oxygen and
Carbon (P-O-C); (b) Phosphorous and double bond Sulphur (P = S); (c)
Zincdialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP); and (d) the Total Base Number TBN by
measuring CaCO 3  (CO3), from a table of the selected parameter X versus dZ in
a first region of the table and determining RUL from a table of RUL versus
parameter X (X 1 ). The value of the selected parameter X when ΔdZ is negative
is determined from a second region of the table of X versus dZ. The rate of
change Ψ of X over a time interval is determined and RUL determined from a
known value of X EOL  for the end of the lubricant life.

Abstract: Security can be provide for lottery tickets having data printed thereon in a bar code or other machine readable media by covering only a portion of the bar code with a scratch-off material. Removing the scratch-off material, or in some cases only a portion of the scratch-off material, can permit machine validation of the lottery tickets. For bar codes having a specified level of redundancy, it is desirable to cover at least enough of the bar code so as to prevent the machine reading of ticket validation data encoded in the bar code. Also, a lottery ticket can include a bar code printed on the ticket having both inventory and validation data along with a bar code printed on the front of the ticket including the validation data. All or part of the bar code printed on the front of the ticket can be covered by a scratch-off material. <IMAGE>

Abstract: When a brushless motor is rotated at low speeds (the answer of a step S12 is YES), the brushless motor is driven by exciting a first phase coil, a second phase coil and a third phase coil bya sine wave PWM system having a phase difference of 120° from each other to perform a torque control. Since the crest value of the sine wave is controlled in response to torque greatly fluctuated by a load, an out-of-phase phenomenon which is apt to occur at low rotational speeds can be previously prevented. When the brushless motor is rotated at high speeds (the answer of the step S12 is N0), the brushless motor is driven by a square wave PWM system based on a three-phase 120° conduction type. Since the out-of-phase phenomenon is apt to occur as a frequency is increased when the brushless motor is driven by the sine wave PWM system, the control system is switched to a square wave PWM system to prevent the out-of-phase phenomenon. Therefore, the brushless motor can be driven smoothly without much pulsating torque over the full range of revolutions from a low speed (zero revolution) to high speeds (several tens of thousands of revolutions/min).
