Title: Polycrystalline germanium-alloyed silicon and a method for the production thereof
Inventor: FABRY LASZLO
IPC: C30B28/12
Filed: 2009-11-30
Abstract: A rod having a length of 0.5 m to 4 m, a diameter of 25 mm to 220 mm, and comprising a high-purity alloy of 0.1 to < 20 mol% germanium and 99.9 to 80 mol% silicon. The alloy is deposited on a thin silicon rod or thin germanium-alloyed silicon rod and has a polycrystalline structure. A starting gas is introduced into a Siemens reactor and brought into contact with a substrate consisting of a thin rod having a temperature from 400°C to 1000°C, deposition occurs on the thin rod, wherein the thin rod comprises silicon or germanium-alloyed silicon and the starting gas comprises hydrogen and a mixture of monogermane and monosilane with a germanium content of < 20 mol%. With this germanium content, monogerman is completely converted and exhaust gas out of the reactor is free of germanium. This simplifies treatment of exhaust gas and makes it possible for the latter to be used further without additional separation.

Abstract: Techniques for supporting operation with enhanced uplink are described. A user equipment (UE) may select a signature from a set of signatures available for random access for enhanced uplink, generate an access preamble based on the selected signature, and send the access preamble for random access while operating in an inactive state. The UE may receive allocated resources (e.g., for an E-DCH) for the UE from a shared control channel (e.g., an HS-SCCH). In one design, the UE  may determine a pre-assigned UE identity (ID) associated with the selected signature, de-mask received symbols for the shared control channel based on the pre-assigned UE ID, decode the demasked symbols to obtain a codeword, and determine the allocated resources based on the codeword. The UE may send data to a Node B  using the allocated resources while remaining in the inactive state.
