Abstract: A MOS bipolar transistor is provide which includes a silicon carbide npn bipolar transistor formed on a bulk single crystal n-type silicon carbide substrate and having an n-type drift layer a p-type base layer. Preferably the base layer is formed by epitaxial growth and formed as a mesa. A silicon carbide nMOSFET is formed adjacent the npn bipolar transistor such that a voltage applied to the gate of the nMOSFET causes the npn bipolar transistor to enter a conductive state. The nMOSFET has a source and a drain formed so as to provide base current to the npn bipolar transistor when the bipolar transistor is in a conductive state. Also included are means for converting electron current flowing between the source and the drain into hole current for injection into the p-type base layer. Means for reducing field crowding associated with an insulating layer of said nMOSFET may also be provided.

To reduce the faults visible in the restored image, the method consists in filtering the image by using a filtering window, for example with dimensions of 3x3 pixels, which scans the image, the current point being the central point of this window, and in determining, for each point, the mean of the values associated wih the points of this window, and in determining for the current point, from this mean and from a characteristic value of the operating status of the encoder, a filtering parameter which can be used to determine the filtered value associated with the current point. The invention can be applied to the resutitution of block encoded images especially in digitalized video tape-recorders.

Date Apr. 4, 1991.An optical detector for use in detecting digital optical signals has an optical fiber coupler which splits a received optical signal into two signal portions. The coupler has unequal length output fibers so that one signal portion impinges upon an associated photodetector delayed relative to the other. The photodetectors are connected in series nonopposed when the delay is equal to the bit period of the optical signal the output of the detector is the differential code (dicode) of the received signal which can be recovered by a high input impedance, i.e. integrating, amplifier. By forming the dicode in the optical domain in this manner large DC and AC dynamic ranges are obtained without linearity constraints on the optical transmission source that apply when the optical signal is transmitted as a dicode.
