Abstract: The card includes one or several writable windows (11, 12), whose size and form correspond to a number block of a lottery ticket, and which are in such way imprinted, stamped or otherwise marked with the winning lottery numbers, that through lying down the card on the lottery ticket, the typed lottery numbers can be compared with drawn winning lottery numbers. An electronic or magnetic memory unit (19) is provided for a storage of data of a lottery player. Constantly used lottery numbers of the player and/or a ticket number are preferably stored in the memory unit. A bank connection of the lottery player or a credit balance at the lottery company may be stored in the memory unit, so that the lottery price is automatically billed, or a possible profit is automatically paid on a bank account of the lottery player.

Title: Method of forming an interlayer film
Inventor: HARA MASAKI
IPC: H01L21/316
Filed: 1997-07-11
Abstract: A method of forming an interlayer film on a substrate
with a plurality of patterns formed thereon wherein the
interlayer film is deposited on the substrate by a process
comprising a plurality of steps in each of which a portion
of the film is deposited so as to have different fluidity
with the same source material. 
     In the first aspect of the method, a portion of the
interlayer film is at first deposited so as to have
relatively reduced fluidity, so that the film is formed with
an almost uniform thickness regardless of any pattern width
on the substrate. After this, the rest portion of the film
is deposited so that it has relatively increased fluidity so
as to fill up the trough between the patterns. 
     In the second aspect of the method, an undercoating
film is formed in advance which is then treated to be
hydrophobic so that a portion of the interlayer film
deposited thereon reduces its fluidity, by which the portion
is uniformly deposited regardless of any pattern width.
Then, the rest portion of the film is deposited over the
above portion of the film with relatively increased
fluidity.

Abstract: During a vacuum evacuation of a chamber, the presence of water in the
chamber can be detected by monitoring the pressure level in the chamber. In the
absence of water, the pressure will decrease continuously and smoothly. If water
is present, the pressure will rise slightly one or more times, especially as the
pressure falls below 5 torr. This rise in pressure can be detected to signal the
unwanted presence of water in the chamber. The method has particular
application to ensuring the chamber is free of water during the evacuation of a
chamber employed in vapor or vapor/plasma sterilization.

Abstract: A memory for use in color space transformation by tetrahedral interpolation
where, instead of using one large memory for the storage of the data table, four small
memories are used, the memories being loaded and accessed so that each of the four
data points needed for tetrahedral interpolation are always located in separate
memories. This allows the four data points to be generated in parallel, thus increasing
the speed of transformation without increasing the size of the memory. In the example
described herein, the origin of the current cube in the data table is labeled P 000 , and is
loaded into one memory. Values P 100 , P 010  and P 001  are loaded into a second table,
values P 011 , P 101  and P 110  are loaded into a third memory and value P 111  is loaded into a
fourth table. Thus, any four values needed will be located in separate memories.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical
attenuator comprising first and second attenuator units
cascaded on an optical path, and a control circuit
connected to the first and second attenuator units. Each
of the first and second attenuator units includes a
Faraday rotator provided on the optical path. The
Faraday rotator generates a Faraday rotation angle given
as a function of wavelength. Each of the first and
second attenuator units further includes polarizing unit
for generating an attenuation determined by the Faraday
rotation angle on the optical path. The control circuit,
for example, controls the Faraday rotation angle in each
of the first and second attenuator units so that a
wavelength characteristic of attenuation in the first
attenuator unit is substantially canceled by a wavelength
characteristic of attenuation in the second attenuator
unit. With this configuration, although each Faraday
rotator generates a Faraday rotation angle given as a
function of wavelength, a wavelength characteristic of
total attenuation is substantially flattened by the
operation of the control circuit.
