Abstract: The discharge systems of this disclosure are useful in the chemical analysis field, including identification and quantification of gaseous impurities. The systems utilize a pair of electrodes which apply a spark across a gap between the electrodes, the spark preferably being repetitively formed. As an inert gas flows between the electrodes, the spark creates photons of energy which are emitted and are used as described. In alternate aspects, other particles are energized in the spark gap and subsequently surrender their energy. Photon emission or loss of energy assists in identification and measurement of peaks eluted from a typical gas chromatograph. The preferred inert gas is helium with or without traces of rare inert gases.

Abstract: An iridium layer (16) is formed on an inter-layer insulation film (12) and in an opening (14). The iridium layer (16) is constituted with a part to be a lower electrode (16a) of a capacitor and a part to be a wiring (16b) for coming into contact with a drain zone (6). On part of the lower electrode (16a) of the iridium layer (16) is formed a ferroelectric layer (18) made of PZT on which is further formed an iridium layer (20) as an upper electrode. 
     Since the melting point of iridium is higher than that of aluminum, there is no possibility of iridium melting even if heat treatment is carried out after forming the iridium layer (16). Since reactivity between iridium and silicon is low, unnecessary silicon compound is not produced on the interface to provide favorable contact.

Abstract: A misfire detector for an internal combustion engine obtains a baseline crankshaft acceleration value that degrades at a 50% misfire rate in a predetermined way that is capable of subsequent correction. The width of a median averaging function is selected that provides a cyclical deviant acceleration under all expected conditions of 50% misfire. The cyclical deviant acceleration is corrected by summing adjacent values. The corrected acceleration is compared to a specially adapted misfire threshold that is exceeded only if the deviant acceleration is cyclical.

Abstract: A video demultiplexing interface (70) is used in a missile tracking system (10) employing a missile (12) with a thermal beacon (24). A target designator (40) defines a boresight from a missile firing location, such as an aircraft, to a target. The closed-loop tracking system (10) employs a forward looking infrared (FLIR) sensor (52) to track the displacement of the thermal beacon (24) from the boresight and generates a correction signal related to such displacement. The video demultiplexing interface (70) transforms serial multiplexed video signals, which are output by the FLIR sensor (52) and contain a field with M rows and L columns of pixels, into a demultiplexed parallel video signal containing N selectable adjacent horizontal rows of pixels (where N is less than M). A video thermal tracker (58) selects the N adjacent horizontal rows of pixels and generates azimuth and elevation error signals which are transmitted to the missile (12). The trajectory of the missile (12) is continuously corrected to align the thermal beacon (24) with the boresight.

The barrier arm is movable from at least a first retracted position wherein the distal end of the cannula passes through the barrier element so that the distal end of the needle cannula is exposed, to a second extended position wherein the barrier element surrounds the distal end of the needle cannula to help prevent accidental contact with the distal end of the needle cannula. Locking structure to prevent movement of the barrier arm from the second extended position is activated by movement of the barrier arm into the second extended position.

Abstract: An exhaust gas recirculation valve (10) meters exhaust gas to the intake of an internal combustion engine (22). The valve includes an electromagnetic solenoid actuator (16) having a magnetic circuit defined by a primary (58) and a secondary (70) pole piece. The pole pieces define an axial chamber (96) in which is disposed an axially moveable armature (102) and an associated valve member (32). The primary pole piece has a center pole member (68) including a cylindrical inner wall (98) which is open at a terminal end (76) for receiving the armature. The armature and the cylindrical inner wall establish a fixed, radially extending primary air gap (110) for flux passage while the outer wall (84) extends in an outward taper (117) from the terminal end of the center pole member and operates to increase the mass of the pole piece through which the magnetic circuit operates as the armature moves from the terminal end of the center pole member towards the second end. The secondary pole piece has a center pole member (72) which includes a cylindrical inner wall (100), open at a terminal end (74) for receiving the moveable armature and which is located in spaced opposing relationship to the terminal end of the primary pole to define a pole-to-pole gap (78) therebetween. The armature and the cylindrical inner wall of the secondary pole defining said fixed, radially extending primary air gap (110) for flux passage thereacross, and the outer wall (86) extends in an outward taper (121) from the terminal end. The outwardly tapering walls of primary and secondary poles operate to minimize the pole-to-pole gap through a minimization in opposing surface area therebetween allowing the length of the secondary pole and the surface area between secondary pole member and the armature to be maximized. The result is a minimization of the reluctance across said radial air gap and a maximization of the flux passage through the armature.
