Title: Laser voltage probe methods and apparatus
Inventor: CHRISTOPHER GRAHAM TALBOT
IPC: G01R31/311
Filed: 1997-02-20
Granted: 1997-10-21
Abstract: A laser voltage probe system in which a repetitive stimulus signal is applied to an integrated circuit. A train of laser pulses is generated, and a laser pulse is picked from the train at a selected time during each repetition of the stimulus signal. The picked laser pulses are applied to a semiconductor active region of the integrated circuit which is influenced by voltage on a conductor. Photons reflected from the semiconductor active region are detected to produce a detector signal. The detector signal is sampled in synchrony with application of the laser pulses to the semiconductor active region so as to obtain samples during first gating intervals which depend upon reflected photons and noise and so as to obtain samples during second gating intervals which depend upon noise. Samples obtained during the first gating intervals are integrated with the inverse of samples obtained during the second gating intervals to produce an integrator signal representing a noise-compensated signal. The integrator signal can be compensated for pulse-to-pulse laser power variations.

Title: Optical fiber amplifier having variable gain
Inventor: BONNEDAL DAG
IPC: H04J14/00
Filed: 1998-02-13
Granted: 1999-08-11
Abstract: An optical amplifier device intended for WDM light signals comprises a preamplifier (3) and a power amplifier (11) of the optical fiber amplifier type, which are connected in series and have gain curves dependent on the wavelength. A controllable attenuate (5) is connected between the amplifiers (3) and (11) and is controlled by a control device (7). The signal input to the preamplifier (30 has a low power and is amplified to provide an output signal where the signals of the input channels have been amplified with different gains. The input signal of the power amplifier 11) then has a larger power resulting in a gain characteristic different from that of the preamplifier (3). By adapting the attenuation of the attenuate (5) for variations in the input signal the gain characteristic of the power amplifier (11) can be set so that the signal output from the amplifier device has a spectral dependence that is the same as the original spectral dependence obtained without variations. Alos, the same spectral dependence can be maintained when the pump light power of the power amplifier is changed and then the total amplifier gain is changed, by adapting the attenuation of the attenuate (5) so that the gain of the power amplifier is not changed. In the amplifier the lowest possible noise from the preamplifier stage is added to the input signal and the full output power is always available from the power amplifier. If the input signal is e.g. increased the SNR of the signals passing through the amplifier is correspondingly improved. This improves the performance of an optical network in which the amplifier is used.

Title: High molecular weight silicone compounds, chemically amplified positive resist compositions, and patterning method
Inventor: TAKEMURA KATSUYA
IPC: C08G77/14
Filed: 1998-03-09
Granted: 2004-06-11
Abstract: In a silicone polymer having phenolic hydroxyl groups, the hydrogen atoms of some of the phenolic hydroxyl groups are replaced by acid labile groups of at least one type. The silicone polymer is crosslinked at some of the remaining phenolic hydroxyl groups with crosslinking groups having C-O-C linkages within a molecule and/or between molecules. The silicone polymer has a Mw of 5,000 to 50,000. A chemically amplified positive resist composition comprising the silicone polymer as a base resin has a high sensitivity and resolution so that it is suitable for fine patterning with electron beams or deep UV. Particularly, because of very low absorption at the exposure wavelength of a KrF excimer laser, the resist composition forms a fine pattern having a wall perpendicular to the substrate. Because of improved oxygen plasma etching resistance, the composition is suitable for use as a lower layer in the two-layer resist technique to form fine pattern with high aspect ratio.
