Patent EP-1049174-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SEMPLE DEXTER ELSON
IPC: H01L21/336
Filed: 2000-04-13
Abstract: A power MOS device tat has increased channel width comprises a
semiconductor substrate and a doped upper layer of a first conduction type disposed on the
substrate. The upper layer comprises a plurality of doped well regions of a second, opposite
conduction type and a plurality of heavily doped source regions of the first conduction type
at an etched upper surface of the upper layer that comprises parallel corrugations disposed
transversely to the source regions. A gate that separates one source region from another
comprises an insulating layer and a conductive material. The corrugations provide an
increase in width of a channel underlying the gate and the well and source regions. In a
process for forming a power MOS device with increased channel width on a semiconductor
substrate having a doped upper layer of a first conduction type, a stripe mask is formed on
an upper surface of the upper layer, and the upper surface is selectively etched to form a
corrugated surface comprising a plurality of parallel corrugations. Following removal of the
stripe mask, an insulating layer is formed on the corrugated surface, and an overlying
conductive layer is formed on the insulating layer, the insulating and conductive layers
comprising a corrugated gate region disposed transversely to the parallel corrugations of the
upper surface. A dopant of a second, opposite conduction type is implanted to form a
doped well region in the upper layer, and a dopant of the first conduction type is implanted
into a portion of the corrugated surface adjacent to the gate, thereby forming a heavily
doped source region in the upper layer.

Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus having a refrigerant
circuit including a condenser (31), a pressure reducing device (32),
an evaporator (33), and a variable displacement compressor. The
air-conditioning apparatus has a torque detecting device (60) and
an external information detecting device. The torque
detecting device directly or indirectly detects the reaction
torque acting on the compressor, and the external
information detecting device detects various external
information other than the torque. The air-conditioning
apparatus further has a control device for determining a
target torque in accordance with the external information
provided by the external information detecting device. The
control device executes a feedback control program for
controlling the displacement of the compressor such that the
torque detected by the torque detecting device approaches
the target torque.

Abstract: In a hydrogen gas sensor, the flow sectional area of a diffusion-rate limiting
portion 6 is rendered small; the electrode surfaces of first and second electrodes 3 and
4 are rendered large; and/or a solution containing a polymer electrolyte identical with
that of a proton-conductive layer 2 is applied onto the surfaces of the first and second
electrodes 3 and 4 to thereby form a layer containing the polymer electrolyte. Thus,
the rate of conduction of protons from the first electrode 3 to the second electrode 4
becomes greater than the rate at which protons are derived from hydrogen gas which
is introduced onto the first electrode 3 via the diffusion-rate limiting portion 6. A
hydrogen gas sensor capable of accurately measuring a hydrogen gas concentration
of a measurement gas atmosphere in the presence of a variety of interfering gasses
such as H 2 O and CO is thereby provided.

Abstract: A method and a system for acquiring and analyzing non-imaging data collected
during an ultrasound examination for the purpose of reporting ultrasound
department performance characteristics. This is accomplished by tracking user
keystrokes whenever the ultrasound imaging system is turned on, acquiring
(46) the keystroke data from the ultrasound system and then using this data for
departmental performance analysis (47). During an examination, the ultrasound
system user presses buttons and selects items from menus on the operator
interface (16). These keystrokes invoke functions or change operating
parameters on the ultrasound imaging system. Simultaneously, a code
representing the keystroke is stored in electronic storage (49). Along with this
code, the date, time and values being set or adjusted are also stored.
Subsequently, the data in the electronic storage can be extracted (51) for use in
analysis of the use of the ultrasound imaging system.

Abstract: A radio communication system has a random access channel for the transmission of data (214) from a secondary station to a primary station. Such a channel is intended for use by secondary stations having data (214) to transmit to a primary station while not actually engaged in a call. A secondary station requesting access chooses a signature corresponding to the resource it requires to encode an access preamble (202). It may be known, from a resource availability message (402) broadcast by the primary station, that certain resources are unavailable. In this case the primary and secondary stations dynamically re-assign signatures corresponding to the unavailable resources to available resources, thereby reducing the probability of collisions between different secondary stations requesting the same resource.

Abstract: Mucositis is treated and/or prevented by administrating to a patient a formulation comprising a tetracycline that is poorly absorbed from the gastro-intestinal tract. The tetracycline may be in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a base. The formulations may optionally also contain an antifungal agent to prevent fungal overgrowth due to reduction in the normal oral flora by the tetracycline. Such compositions have the advantage of treating the entire gastro-intestinal tract since the active ingredient is not removed from the tract via absorption. Further, such compositions minimize systemic exposure and accompanying side effects.

Abstract: A rake receiver includes a radio receiving
section, a first despreading section, a delay profile
calculating section, a synchronization establishing
and tracking section, a second despreading section and
a demodulating section. The radio receiving section
converts a received carrier signal into a spread
baseband signal. The first despreading section
calculates a correlation value signal from the spread
baseband signal using a predetermined spreading code.
The delay profile calculating section has an infinite
impulse response (IIR) filter section functioning as a
low pass filter, and calculates a delay profile from
the correlation value signal using the infinite
impulse response filter section. The synchronization
establishing and tracking section detects phases of a
selected path from the delay profile. The second
despreading section despreads the baseband signal
using the predetermined spreading code in response to
each of the selected path phases to produce a despread
baseband signal. The demodulating section demodulates
the despread baseband signal into a data.
