Abstract: An apparatus and technique for determining the abrasion potential for tire treads is presented. A tire is rotatably and forcefully brought into contacting engagement with a reflective surface received upon an illuminated glass plate. A charge coupled device monitors the internal reflection light which evidences a grey level corresponding to the force of engagement between the associated portion of the tire and the glass support plate. A marker is placed upon the tire centrally within a region of interest. The video image of the marker and region of interest is analyzed as to slip and force at that area. The product of the slip and force functions is an indication of frictional work at the interface between the tire and support surface and is correspondingly an indication of the propensity of the tire to wear.

Abstract: In a video telephony system, a coaxial cable network (121, 126), which is preferably a part of an existing cable television system (121, 126, 122, 127), provides a local link for the transmission of the video telephone signals between each originating and destination location (101, 105) and a respective "head end" (122, 127) located on the cable company premises. Each of the head ends is connected to a "point of presence" (161, 162) of a telephone interexchange carrier so that a connection between pairs of head ends, and thus between a pair of video telephone locations, can be made via a switched digital network (160) maintained by the carrier. Certain of originating and destination locations comprise a standard television set (103, 106), serving as the audio/video display, and a consumer-type camera or camcorder, serving as the audio/video source. Others of the originating and destination locations comprise ISDN video telephones (111, 115) which are connected to the various points of presence of the interexchange carrier via local exchange carrier telephone networks (140, 145). The video telephone numbers for cable subscriber locations are administered to be the same as the standard ten- (i.e., area code plus seven-) digit telephone number used for regular telephone calls directed to those locations.

Abstract: A programmable output connector of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), or similar implantable medical device, allows each of a multiplicity of output terminals to be selectively connected to either a positive or a negative output bus of the ICD. The positive and negative output buses of the ICD, in turn, are switched to an output capacitor, or equivalent output circuit, of the ICD. An electrical charge stored on the output capacitor, or otherwise generated by the output circuit, is presented to the multiplicity of output terminals in accordance with a programmed polarity. The programmed polarity causes a selected one or group of the multiplicity of output terminals to be connected to the positive output bus, and a selected other or group of the multiplicity of output terminals to be connected to the negative output bus. Respective electrodes designed for contacting cardiac tissue may then be electrically connected to each one of the multiplicity of output terminals. An electrical charge available on the positive and negative output buses may then be transferred to the body tissue as an electrical shock or stimulus through the electrodes in accordance with the programmed polarity. To ensure safe programming, the physician may program into the ICD's memory the lead type (e.g., transvenous, epicardial patch, subcutaneous, etc.) and the placement of the lead (e.g., right or left ventricle, atrium, SVC, coronary sinus, etc.). Thus, any attending physician can interrogate the ICD and determine the exact shocking configuration and, if necessary, proceed to evaluate the effectiveness of the electrode polarity and alter it accordingly.

Abstract: The field effect transistor FET (30) in accordance with the invention includes a substrate or layer (31) in which areas in which transistors are formed are separated by shallow isolation trenches (32) formed of an oxide or other insulative material. Metal source and drain deposits (33), preferably of tungsten, extend into the substrate or layer (31) for a distance beyond shallow junction structures (34), adjacent to the source and drain (33) and serving to connect the source and drain to the conduction channel of the FET which extends between them. Gate (35) of N+ polysilicon or polycide is insulated from the conduction channel by gate insulator (37), preferably formed of an oxide of the substrate material. Gate oxide (37) extends over the shallow junctions structure (34) between the metal source and drain deposits (33). Oxide gate sidewalls (38) cover the region between the gate edges and the edge of the metal source and drain deposits (33). The gate sidewalls (38) are also preferably covered with a thin (e.g. 40 nm) nitride spacer (39). Optionally, a cap of polycide or metal such as tungsten (particularly if polycide is used for the gate) can be provided on the gate. This ultra-short channel FET provides a combination of a shallow junction for injection of carriers into a conduction channel and a Schottky barrier below the shallow junction with a lowered barrier height to reduce the depletion region and punch-through effects. A preferred method of fabricating this structure which includes both etching and metal deposition selectively on only semiconductor material, thus allowing use of only a single patterning step with registration tolerances comparable to channel length while allowing extremely high integration density, is also disclosed herein.

Abstract: A differentiable ablation approach to patterning dielectrics which are not of the same absorbance uses an absorbant dielectric (20) at a specified laser wavelength over a non-absorbant dielectric (18) at that wavelength. The absorbant dielectric may be laser-patterned and become an integral mask enabling plasma etching of the underlying non-absorbant dielectric. If the patterning of the absorbant dielectric involves vias, polymer ridges formed around via surfaces during laser patterning may be removed at the same time the underlying non-absorbant dielectric is etched using a transparent, oxygen plasma resistant mask. Alternatively, an inert mask may be used instead of the absorbent dielectric to allow plasma etching of the non-absorbant dielectric.
