Abstract: Backthinning in an area selective manner is applied to image sensors (12) for use in electron bombarded devices. A further arrangement results in an away of collimators (51) aligned with pixels (42) or groups of pixels providing improved image contrast of such image sensor. Provision of a thin P-doped layer (52) on the illuminated rear surface provides both a diffusion barrier resulting in improved resolution and a functional shield for reference pixels. A gradient in concentration of P-doped layer (52) optimizes electron collection at pixel array.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of chemistry and specifically to radically coupled perfluoropolymer-polymer materials which can for example be used in tribomaterials. The aim of the invention is to provide perfluoropolymer-polymer materials which have improved wearing properties for comparable lubricating properties. For this purpose, the radically coupled perfluoropolymer-polymer materials consist of perfluoropolymer to the perfluoropolymer chains of which olefinically unsaturated monomers and/or macromers and/or oligomers and/or polymers are chemically-radically coupled by way of reactive conversion in dispersion. The invention also relates to a method for producing radically coupled perfluoropolymer-polymer materials. According to the inventive method, perfluoropolymers are reacted in dispersion with persistent active or reactivated perfluoroalkyl(peroxy) radicals and/or radicals stemming from thermal decomposition groups that do not stem from a radiation process and/or a plasma treatment while adding olefinically unsaturated monomer(s) and/or macromer(s) and/or oligomer(s) and/or polymer(s).

Abstract: Lors de la détection de fuites, le signal généré par un gaz de test est brouillé par des influences perturbatrices qui décroissent au fur et à mesure que le vide généré augmente dans le contenant. Une limite de notification inférieure AG est calculée en fonction de la pente négative du signal de débit MS. Lors de l'activation d'une fonction zéro, le signal de débit MS n'est pas réduit à zéro, mais uniquement à la hauteur de la limite de notification AG. Tout dépassement de la limite de notification inférieure est identifié comme une fuite. Cela garantit à chaque instant une sensibilité maximale de la notification de fuite.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for sorting a gas-driven stream of generally flat and light-weight articles of varying dimensions execute a, preferably optical, inspection and upon so finding a non-conforming article remove the latter from the stream. In particular, the inspection and the sorting are executed during a substantially straight movement of the articles. The removing is executed through gas driving in a direction substantially transverse to the straight movement. Advantageously, the inspection is preceded by orienting the articles through a centrifugal force that orients said articles against an inclined wall in a transition to the vertical movement. Also airflow means (83,84) can be used to confine the articles in a thin layer.

Abstract: A valve assembly is disclosed for use in conjunction with a replaceable filter cartridge system. The valve assembly includes a head member having an interior valve chamber defining a central axis, and inlet and outlet passages extending parallel to and communicating with the interior valve chamber. The valve assembly further includes a valve member having an inlet path and an outlet path, adapted for rotation within the interior valve chamber of the head member between a filter position wherein the inlet path of the valve member is in communication with the inlet passage of the head member and a bypass position wherein the inlet path of the valve member is out of communication with the inlet passage of the head member. The valve assembly further includes a seal member seated in an upper surface of the valve member and positioned to seal against an opposing surface of the interior valve chamber. The seal member sealingly isolates untreated and treated fluid streams flowing through the inlet and outlet paths of the valve member, respectively, when the valve member is in the filter position, and sealingly isolates the inlet and outlet passages of the head member from the atmosphere when the valve member is in the bypass position to permit fluid to flow therebetween.

Abstract: To relate to a head liquid which is supplied to efficiently remove ink residues and the like which are attached to the surface of an inkjet head provided with ejection openings through which an ink containing a color material is ejected. In a case where a nonvolatile solvent such as glycerin is used as the head liquid, the nonvolatile solvent absorbs moisture, and thereby an extremely large change in mass is exhibited. As a result, the above supply amount is varied. To solve the problem, it was found that the previous mixing of water with the nonvolatile solvent can provide a smaller change in mass than that in a case where the nonvolatile solvent by itself is caused to absorb moisture. Accordingly, a mixture prepared by mixing the nonvolatile solvent and water in an appropriate predetermined ratio is used as a head liquid.
