Filed: 2000-09-28
Abstract: The integrated circuit (1) suppresses leakage currents, which usually take place between neighboring transistors (10, 20) through the unpatterned semiconductor layer (5). In its first layer (3), the circuit (10) comprises electrically conductive tracks (4) which are in contact with the semiconductor layer (5), some of which tracks (4) are in use as source and drain electrodes (14, 15, 24, 25) and are preferably fork-shaped and interdigitated. The suppression of leakage currents is achieved by putting neighboring electrodes (14, 24) in different transistors (10, 20) at the same voltage and by excluding the presence of any other electrically conductive tracks between those neighboring electrodes (14, 24). Interconnect lines (39) carrying input or output signals are positioned in a second layer (7) as much as possible, which second layer (7) comprises electrically conductive tracks (8) and is not in contact with the semiconductor layer (5). The integrated circuit (1) of the invention is very well fitted to contain arrays of NAND structures.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a
regenerative carbon dioxide gas separator and a carbon
dioxide gas separating system which can separate carbon
dioxide gas in a secured manner, with a far simpler structure
and a extremely higher efficiency as compared with
conventional cases. 
     A rotor includes a high-temperature section and a
low-temperature section on its circumference. It is
possible to absorb and separate carbon dioxide gas in an
effluent or exhaust gas simply by rotating the rotor.
Therefore, it is possible to obtain a reliable
absorbing/separating system. The system can be remarkably
simplified, the regenerating cost thereof can be
considerably reduced, and the maintenance thereof is easy. 
     A fixed type of system has similar advantages. Lithium
zirconate, an alkali metal oxide, and/or an alkali earth
metal oxide is used as an absorbing/separating agent. Such
an absorbing/separating agent is chemically and
mechanically stable, and can absorb and release carbon
dioxide gas stably and reversibly.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a unique microchip or circuit which can,  inter
alia,  handle both current conducting functions and man-machine-interface
functions in an electrical device, for example, such as a flashlight. The man-machine-interface
functions, according to the present invention, may be
controlled by very low current signals, touch pads, carbon coated membrane type
switches, or other low current type switches. These low current switches are
smaller, more reliable, less costly, easier to seal, and less vulnerable to corrosion
and oxidation than prior art switches. Moreover, since according to the present
invention, the current conducting switch is controlled in an intelligent manner by
the same microchip which provides the man-machine-interface functioning,
significant costs savings and reliability are achieved by the invention. The
present invention, according to one embodiment, also provides a microchip or
circuit which may be embedded into a power source, for example, a battery, that
supplies intelligence to the same. As a result, and according to the invention,
functions such as delayed switching, dimming, delayed automatic shut off and an
intermittent activation may be realised in less intelligent prior art electrical
devices. According to certain embodiments of the present invention, the
inventive microchips or circuits of the present invention can,  inter alia,  adjust the
average electrical current through a current switch, provide an "on" and "off"
sequence which, in the case of a flashlight, can be determined by an operator
and may represent either a flash code sequence or a simple on-off oscillation,
delayed shut off function, dimming function, provide indication of power strength,
and provide gradual oscillating current flow to lengthen the life of the operating
switch and the battery, etc. The function can be selected by varying the time
period which elapses between successive activations of a controlling switch.
