Title: Procede et dispositif de depot en phase vapeur de materiau ionise
Inventor: DREWERY JOHN STEPHEN
IPC: H01L21/285
Filed: 2000-11-17
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de dépôt en phase vapeur de matériau ionisé, notamment utile dans un dispositif (500) de pulvérisation d'un matériau de revêtement métallique conducteur, à partir d'une cible annulaire de pulvérisation magnétron (10). Le matériau pulvérisé est ionisé dans un espace de traitement situé entre la cible (10) et un substrat (100), par production d'un plasma dense, dans ledit espace, au moyen d'énergie couplée à partir d'une bobine (39) placée à l'extérieur de la chambre à vide (501), derrière une fenêtre diélectrique (33) située dans la paroi de la chambre (502) au centre de l'ouverture (421) de la cible de pulvérisation. Un écran du type Faraday (26) protège physiquement la fenêtre afin d'empêcher le matériau de revêtement de se déposer sur la fenêtre, tout en permettant le couplage inductif de l'énergie, de la bobine dans l'espace de traitement. L'emplacement de la bobine dans le plan de la cible ou derrière celle-ci permet de choisir l'espacement cible/plaquette, afin d'optimiser la vitesse et l'uniformité de dépôt du film, de même qu'il permet d'utiliser les avantages d'une source de forme annulaire sans les problèmes associés à un dépôt non voulu dans l'ouverture au niveau du centre de la cible.

Abstract: A telecommunication connector for a distribution point comprises a base part and
a detachable configuration module, the configuration module being able to take a
plurality of dispositions with respect to the base part, the base part having
connection means to (i) a telecommunications cable from an exchange, (ii) a cable
to a further distribution point, and (iii) a cable to a consumer, wherein the
configuration module causes electrical connection from the exchange to the further
distribution point in a first disposition but not in a second disposition. This permits
the installer who is connecting a new consumer to disconnect the unnecessary part
of the wire forming the relevant pair when activating the service whilst leaving
intact the investment in the network. The configuration module can also contain
protective devices for the line, such as three or five pin protection, over current
devices and over voltage devices, or other active electronic elements. It is further
preferred that in the first orientation, the configuration module causes electrical
connection between the exchange and consumer to be broken.

Abstract: A server application system includes a server application module that
performs predetermined functions in response to external user requests. The
server application system further includes a characterization module coupled
to receive the external user requests, and to determine a threshold for user
tolerance of delay for each of the user requests. Tolerance threshold is
calculated using task type, service level, and session duration. A classification
module is then coupled to the characterization module to dynamically assign
each of the user requests an allowable processing deadline based on the
corresponding user tolerance threshold of that user request. The processing
deadline specifies the time period within which the particular user request
must be serviced by the server application module. A method of admitting
incoming user requests to a server application is also described.

Abstract: This invention relates to a packet scheduler and method therefor and in particular a scheduler for a Code Division Multiple Access cellular mobile communication system. In packet base systems it is important to schedule transmissions of packets carefully in order to maximise the capacity of the system. The scheduler has means (235) for maintaining a list of packets for a cluster of cells. A packet is selected from this list and processed in means (237) for calculating an increase in receive power level at a target base station and at other base stations caused by transmitting a packet. The results are fed to means (239) for scheduling packets to a base station so that only packets which do not result in an accumulated receive power level exceeding a maximum receive power level at a base station are scheduled. The scheduler is in particular appropriate for third generation mobile communication systems.
