Abstract: A gas-discharge lamp radiating incoherent light has the electrodes fed by a series of voltage pulses whose shape varies with time, between which are periods of zero voltage. The pulse amplitudes equal the restrike voltage. The duration of the pulses and the spaces between them vary according to the gas filling, the arc length, the dielectric layers between the electrodes and the gas and the electrode configuration. The pulse duration in particular lies between .01 and 10 microseconds whereas the product of pulse duration and gas pressure lies between .01 and 10 Pascal- seconds. The pulse amplitude also depends on the same factors and in particular, lies between .01 and 1 volt per centimetre of arc length per Pascal pressure.

Abstract: An impermeable hose has a wall corrugated along at least a
part of its length, and formed by an inner thin resin layer, a laminated
layer including a metal film, or a layer formed by a metal film, and an outer
thin resin layer. It has a very high fluid impermeability owing to its wall
layer including or formed by a metal film, and is also very flexible, capable
of absorbing vibration, light in weight and strong. A tubular inner thin
resin layer is formed by extrusion as the innermost layer of a multi-layered
hose wall, and a laminated tape including a metal film, or simply a
metal film is spirally wound or longitudinally lapped about the inner resin
layer. An outer thin resin layer is formed about a layer formed by the
laminated tape, or metal film, and the whole is at least partly corrugated.
Alternatively, corrugation is done before an outer thin resin layer is formed
by electrostatic powder coating. A different process includes applying a
laminated tape including a metal film about a mandrel to form a tubular
laminated layer, and after removing the mandrel, coating the inner surface
of the tubular layer with a resin powder electrostatically to form a thin
resin layer thereon.

Abstract: There are provided a wavelength dispersion compensating method
of reducing distortion of a transmitted waveform due to cross phase
modulation in an optical transmission path, and an optical transmission
system utilizing the method. To this end, the wavelength dispersion
compensating method sets the wavelength dispersion characteristic of the
optical transmission path such that the time delay amount to occur between
light signals of two adjacent wavelengths due to wavelength dispersion such
as in one repeating section in the transmission path, to become 1/2 times of
a bit interval, for the optical transmission path having transmission loss. In this
way, one of the light pulses of the adjacent two wavelengths is delayed from
the other by 1 bit after the transmission of two transmission sections, so that
the red chirping to occur in a first repeating section and the blue chirping to
occur in a second repeating section offset each other, resulting in reduction
of waveform distortion caused by cross phase modulation.

Abstract: An improved punch ring (40) for a hole punching system used to
punch lines of holes in a passing paper web. The ring (40) has a punch
receiving portion (42). The punch receiving portion (42) includes a number
of radially extending grooves (54) spaced about the circumference of the
punch receiving portion (42) to receive hardened punches (56). The punch
receiving portion (42) also includes a number of cylindrical bores (50)
extending through the punch receiving portion (42) between adjacent pairs of
the grooves (54) that each receive a clamp screw (52). A clamp ring (44)
includes a number of threaded apertures (62) alignable with the bores (50) in
the punch receiving portion (42). The clamp ring (44) is placed against the
punches (56) in the grooves (54). Clamp screws (42) are inserted through the
bores (50) to engage the threaded apertures (62) in the clamp ring (44) to
hold the clamp ring (44) in engagement with the punch receiving portion (42)
and retain the punches (56) in the grooves (54). The use of the clamp ring
(44) avoids the problems heretofore encountered when screws are used to
hold punches in a punch ring. Furthermore, the separate clamp ring (44)
eliminates the need for the removal of the entire punch ring (40) and shaft
from the system should the threads in the clamp ring (44) become damaged
by the clamp screws (52).

IPC: G06Q10/06
Filed: 2000-11-14
Abstract: A workflow management system and method is described. The illustrated embodiment is a contact management system, more particularly adapted for employment in a debt collection context. Methods and systems are described for allowing a debt collector to associate debtors with different categories, either manually or automatically in response to predetermined condition. Thus, the system can efficiently manage the status of debtors by associating each debtor with a particular category. As part of this system, the debtor accounts are moved from one category to another, and from one individual to another, as the collection process is undertaken. The system maintains each debtor account within a predetermined category, and then displays each of the categories to a collector on a graphical display. The graphical display uses rectangular bars for representing each category, and indicates within the rectangular bars how many contacts belong to the category. When the graphical display is generated on the collector's computer monitor, the collector can press a function key corresponding to a category in order to be presented with a list of debtor accounts within the category.

IPC: C23C16/04

Abstract: A trench-fill material is deposited to fill a trench in a substrate disposed in a process
chamber. An inert gas is introduced into the process chamber and a plasma is formed to heat
the substrate to a preset temperature, which is typically the temperature at which deposition of
the trench-fill material is to take place. The plasma is terminated upon reaching the preset
temperature for the substrate. A process gas is then flowed into the process chamber without
plasma excitation until the process gas flow and distribution achieve a generally steady state
in the process chamber. A plasma is then formed to deposit the trench-fill material on the surface
of the substrate and fill the trench. By establishing generally steady state conditions in the
chamber prior to deposition, transient effects are reduced and more uniform deposition of the
trench-fill material is obtained. The step of forming the plasma typically includes coupling
source plasma energy into the process chamber at a total power density of at least about 15
Watts/cm 2 . The energy is inductively coupled into the process chamber by coupling a top coil
with a top portion of the process chamber above the surface of the substrate and coupling a
side coil with a side portion of the process chamber generally surrounding the side edge of the
substrate. The top coil is powered at a top RF power level to produce a top power density and
the side coil is powered at a side RF power level to produce a side power density. The total
RF power density is equal to the sum of the top and side power densities. The top power density
and the side power density desirably have a ratio of at least about 1.5. The high source
plasma power density generates a high ion density plasma and produces a more directional
deposition, and a higher top power density relative to the side power density produces a more
uniform plasma over the substrate, resulting in improved trench fill, particularly for aggressive
trenches having aspect ratios of about 3:1 to 4:1. The process gas typically includes silicon,
oxygen, and an inert component having a concentration of less than about 40%, by volume.
In specific embodiments, the concentration of the inert component is equal to about 0%.
