Inventor: KIJIMA YASUNORI
IPC: H05B33/14
Filed: 1997-07-03
Abstract: An organic electroluminescent device of a single
heterostructure is fabricated by forming a transparent
electrode (anode) (5) of ITO, a hole transport layer (4), an
electron transport layer (2) and a metal electrode (cathode) (1) in
that order on a glass substrate (6). An exciton generation
promoting layer (33) is formed between the hole transport layer (4)
and the electron transport layer (2). The hole transport layer (4)
is a two-layer structure consisting of a hole transport
light emitting layer (4a) or a hole injection layer, and a hole
transport light emitting layer (4b). Exciton generation in the
hole transport light emitting layers 4a and 4b can be
promoted. The hole injection layer (4) enables efficient hole
injection.

Abstract: A method of controlling transmission power of a plurality of base stations
associated with a mobile unit in a CDMA (code division multiple access) cellular system,
is disclosed. The mobile unit communicates with one base station among the plurality
of base stations. According to the present invention, power of each of pilot signals
respectively transmitted from the plurality of base stations is measured at the mobile unit
Following this, information about a measured power value of each of the pilot signals is
transmitted to the one base station. Thereafter, a first power control coefficient is
determined at the one base station. The coefficient is a ratio of total pilot power values
of the plurality of base stations, other than the main base station, to a pilot power value
of the one base station. Subsequently, the transmission power of each of the plurality
of base stations using the first power control coefficient is controlled.

Abstract: A data storage apparatus in a device comprises a flash
memory (18) having one or more image data storage areas, or frames,
together with related attribute data areas each corresponding to an
image data storage area in the data storage apparatus. Each attribute
data area is used to store attribute data indicating the state or status
of the corresponding image data storage area. The attribute data
generally can indicate "1" that an image is stored in the image data
storage area, "2" that an instruction is pending to delete the image
data in the data storage area, which instruction has not yet been
executed, or "3" the data storage area is initialized and ready to be
written on. Data in an image data storage area the status of which
indicates a pending delete instruction is not deleted until the
apparatus is subsequently turned on again for use. In this manner,
the impact of lengthy delays caused by the slow read-write times of
flash memory (18) is minimized to the user, who is aware of the delay
only as part of the start-up of the device.

Abstract: An electrolocation apparatus is provided for locating a nerve to which
anesthesia may be delivered. The apparatus includes a needle assembly having an
electrically conductive needle cannula non-conductive tube secured over the needle
cannula, and a conductive plating on the tube. The conductors are connected to a
stimulator that generates alternating high and low charge pulses with a constant low
current level. The high charge pulses generate noticeable muscle twitches
immediately after insertion of the needle into the patient. Muscle twitches
responsive to the high charge pulses will peak in magnitude, and muscle twitches
responsive to the low charge pulses will become observable as the needle approaches
the targeted nerve, and will be indistinguishable from the muscle twitches responsive
to the high charge pulses when the needle is in a position for administration of
anesthetic.

Abstract: A collaboration system that integrates separate real-time and asynchronous networks - the former for real-time audio and video, and
the latter for control signals and textual, graphical and other data - in a manner which closely approximates the experience of face-to-face
collaboration. These capabilities are achieved by exploiting a variety of hardware, software and networking technologies in a manner
that preserves the quality and integrity of audio/video/data and other multimedia information, even after wide area transmission, and at a
significantly reduced networking cost as compared to what would be required by presently known approaches. The system architecture
is readily scalable to the largest enterprise network environments. It accommodates differing levels of collaborative capabilities available
to individual users and permits high-quality audio and video capabilities to be readily superimposed onto existing personal computers and
workstations (12) and their interconnecting LANs (10) and WANs (15). In the case of a plurality of geographically dispersed LANs (10)
interconnected by a WAN (15), the demands made on the WAN are significantly reduced by employing multi-hopping techniques, including
avoiding the unnecessary decompression of data at intermediate hops, as well as video mosaicing and cut-and-paste technology.

Filed: 1998-03-06
Abstract: A deposition system (100) in a semiconductor
fabrication system provides at least one electron gun
(104) which injects energetic electrons into a
semiconductor fabrication chamber (102) to initiate
and sustain a relatively high density plasma at
extremely low pressures. In addition to ionizing atoms
of the the extremely low pressure gas, such as argon
gas at 100 microTorr, for example, the energetic
electrons are also believed to collide with target
material atoms sputtered from a target (110)
positioned above a substrate (112), thereby ionizing
the target material atoms and losing energy as a
result of the collisions. Preferably, the electrons
are injected substantially tangientially to the walls
of a chamber shield (106) surrounding the plasma (900)
in a magnetic field generally parallel to a central
axis of the semiconductor fabrication chamber (102)
connecting the target (110) to the substrate (112). As
the injected electrons lose energy ionizing the target
material atoms, the electrons spiral inwards toward a
central region of the semiconductor fabrication
chamber (102) surrounding the central axis, forming an
electron cloud in the central region. An arrangement
of electromagnets (1000,1010) may be positioned
adjacent the walls of the chamber shield (106)
surrounding the plasma (900) to generate the magnetic
field. It is believed that the configuration of
magnetic fields also keeps electrons from colliding
with the wall of the chamber shield (106) surrounding
the plasma (900).

Abstract: A method for detection of passing magnetic articles which includes an
initial step of sensing an ambient magnetic field and generating a voltage, Vsig,
proportional to the magnetic field. A threshold voltage is generated as a percentage
of the peak-to-peak voltage of Vsig. The method further includes the step of
generating a proximity detector output voltage that becomes one binary level when
Vsig rises to exceed the threshold voltage and another binary level when Vsig falls
to below the threshold voltage. The threshold voltage is periodically updated to
remain the percentage, within a predetermined tolerance, of the peak-to-peak voltage
of Vsig in response to changes that may occur in the peak voltages of Vsig. In one
embodiment, the threshold voltage is at a first level corresponding to a first
percentage of the peak-to-peak voltage of Vsig when Vsig exceeds the threshold
voltage and is at a second level corresponding to a second percentage of the peak-to-peak
voltage of Vsig when Vsig is less than the threshold voltage.
