Patent EP-1235227-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KOZICKI MICHAEL N
IPC: G11C16/02
Filed: 1998-12-04
Abstract: A programmable sub-surface aggregating metallization structure (100) includes
an ion conductor (110) such as a chalcogenide glass which includes metal ions and
at least two electrodes (120, 130) disposed at opposing surfaces of the ion
conductor (110). Preferably, the ion conductor (110) includes a chalcogenide
material with Group IB or Group IIB metals. One of the two electrodes (120,130) is
preferably configured as a cathode and the other as an anode. When a voltage is
applied between the anode and cathode, a metal dendrite (140) grows from the
cathode through the ion conductor (110) toward the anode. The growth rate of the
dendrite (140) may be stopped by removing the voltage or the dendrite (140) may be
retracted back toward the cathode by reversing the voltage polarity at the anode and
cathode. When a voltage is applied for a sufficient length of time, a continuous metal
dendrite (140) grows through the ion conductor (110) and connects the electrodes
(120,130), thereby shorting the device. The continuous metal dendrite (140) then
can be broken by applying another voltage. The break in the metal dendrite (140) can
be reclosed by applying yet another voltage. Changes in the length of the dendrite
(140) or the presence of a break in the dendrite (140) affects the resistance,
capacitance, and impedance of the programmable sub-surface aggregating
metallization structure.

Abstract: Method and equipment for the thermal conditioning through free cooling of shelters for
electronic assemblies (in particular for cellular telephone system, in which an
inspection of the relative humidity degree in the conditioning air is made . A control
logic unit, based on temperature and relative humidity conditions inside the shelter (1)
to be conditioned, determines the selection of an external air flow to enter into the
shelter (1) in order to assure an effective cooling while maintaining the relative humidity
degree under a pre-set limit. Therefore, the invention enables to avoid the
disadvantage that the air relative humidity determines phenomena of electronic
assembly corrosion. At the same time, the invention enables to reach the advantages
typical of free cooling systems, which, as already known, show low power consumption
and are intrinsically free from short-term fluctuations.

Abstract: A refrigerating cycle of an air-conditioner includes: a compressor 4 for
compressing a refrigerant; an outdoor heat exchanger 8 disposed outdoors and
used as a condenser or an evaporator; indoor heat exchangers 2 disposed
indoors and performing an air-cooling/heating operation; expansion valves 10 and
12 installed between the outdoor heat exchanger 8 and the indoor heat exchanger
2 and changing a refrigerant to a low temperature and a low pressure state; and
an accumulator/receiver assembly 16 in which a receiver unit 30 for separating oil
contained in the refrigerant supplied to the evaporator and an accumulator unit 42
for supplying only a gas refrigerant to the compressor 4 are formed as one body
for a heat exchange. As the liquid refrigerant supplied to the evaporator is
overcooled and the gas refrigerant supplied to the compressor is overheated, even
if the refrigerant pipe is formed long, the compression lowering of the refrigerant
can be prevented and thus the compressor can be protected.

Abstract: A magnetic memory cell 10 having read-write conductor 19 that is wholly clad with a high magnetic permeability soft magnetic material for a pinned-on-the-fly soft ferromagnetic reference layer includes a 'ferromagnetic data layer 11, an intermediate layer 13 formed on the ferromagnetic data layer 11, and a soft ferromagnetic reference layer 17 having a non-pinned orientation of magnetization M1 formed on the intermediate layer 13. The soft ferromagnetic reference layer 17 includes a read-write conductor 19 and a ferromagnetic cladding 21 that completely surrounds the read-write conductor 19 to form a cladded read-write conductor. An externally supplied read current I<sub>R</sub> flowing through the read-write conductor 19 generates a read magnetic field H<sub>R</sub> that does not saturate the ferromagnetic cladding 21 and is substantially contained within the ferromagnetic cladding 21 and is operative to dynamically pin the orientation of magnetization M1 in a desired direction. During a write operation, a write current I<sub>W1</sub> flowing through the read-write conductor 19 generates a write magnetic field H<sub>W1</sub> that saturates the ferromagnetic cladding 21 and extends to the ferromagnetic data layer 11 to rotate the orientation of magnetization M2 of the ferromagnetic data layer 11. The ferromagnetic cladding 21 substantially reduces fringe magnetic fields that can corrupt the data stored in neighboring magnetic memory cells 10, the soft ferromagnetic reference layer 17 reduces the number and complexity of the of layers needed to form a prior pinned reference layer, and a magnitude of the read current I<sub>R</sub> sufficient to read or write a bit of data is reduced by the soft ferromagnetic
