Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide an
apparatus and a method for preventing dropping of a single crystal
having large diameter and heavy weight in a chamber with reduced
pressure and for pulling it in reliable and safe manner. After a
seed crystal 24a is immersed in Si melt in a quartz crucible 14, the
seed crystal is pulled up, and a neck portion 1a with small diameter
is formed under the seed crystal 24a, and a spherical constricted
portion 1b is formed under the neck portion 1a, whereby a tip 23a of
a single crystal support 23 is opened so that it does not come into
contact with the constricted portion 1b under pulling operation.
When a second neck portion 1c under the constricted portion 1b is
moved up to a standby position of the tip 23a of the single crystal
support 23, rotation of an upper chamber 12 is started, and a
rotating shaft 22 is rotated clockwise, and the tip 23a of the single
crystal support 23 is closed to grip a site under the constricted
portion 1b and the single crystal support 23 is moved up at the
same rate as that of the wire 3 by rotating a ball screw shaft 21.

Inventor: TAKEOKA SADAMI
IPC: G01R31/3185
Filed: 1998-07-22
Abstract: In a semiconductor integrated circuit, a select signal
output circuit switches a selector to take in the output of a
circuit section in response to a signal "0" received at the D
terminal thereof during normal operation. Thus, a scan flip-flop
receives the output of the circuit section. During a
scan test mode, a select signal "0" or "1" is input through a
scan-in terminal to the select signal output circuit and then
to the selector. If the select signal is "0", then the selector
selects the output of the circuit section. On the other
hand, if the select signal is "1", then the selector selects
a clock signal supplied from a clock signal generator. The
output of the circuit section or the clock signal supplied
from the clock signal generator, which has been input to the
scan flip-flop, is passed through a scan path and output to
the outside through a scan-out terminal. As a result, an internally
formed clock signal generator or the like can be
tested easily.

Abstract: Data carrying optical signals (16) are subjected to
equalisation or pulse shaping of the optical signal
waveform. A plurality of optical tap signals (20,21)
derived from the optical signal are used to control a
modulator (5) operating on an input signal (50) to
provide an output signal (22) having the desired waveform
(D). A Mach-Zehnder interferometer (5) having
semiconductor optical amplifiers (8,9) in each arm (6,7)
provides modulation by the effect of cross modulation
induced by propagating the respective tap signals through
a selected one of the semiconductor optical amplifiers.
Various forms of transversal filter are provided by
selecting the number of optical taps, assigning positive
or negative weights and appropriate delays. The effects
of dispersion in optical signals can be mitigated by
utilising optical taps with negative weights to subtract
tail portions from the leading and trailing edges of a
signal pulse. The invention has application to systems
with high bit rates where equalisation or pulse shaping
in the electrical domain is difficult to implement.

Abstract: Un système infographique génère un modèle tridimensionnel d'un objet de manière interactive sous la commande d'un opérateur. Un modèle initial de l'objet à modéliser est affiché à l'opérateur, illuminé à partir d'une direction d'illumination particulière et projeté sur un plan d'image. L'opérateur peut actualiser l'ombrage d'un pixel sur le plan d'image et, sur la base de l'ombrage actualisé, le système infographique génère un vecteur perpendiculaire actualisé pour le pixel actualisé, lequel identifie la perpendiculaire de la surface de l'object projeté sur le pixel actualisé. L'utilisation du champ du vecteur perpendiculaire actualisé et d'un champ de hauteur, lequel représente la hauteur de la partie respective de l'objet projetée sur les pixels respectifs du plan d'image, permet au système infographique de générer une valeur de hauteur actualisée pour le pixel actualisé, actualisant ainsi le champ de hauteur. Le champ du vecteur perpendiculaire actualisé et le champ du vecteur actualisé définissent le modèle actualisé de l'objet, lequel correspond à la forme actualisée de l'objet tel qu'elle est actualisée sur la base de l'ombrage actualisé. Le système infographique peut alors afficher à l'opérateur une image de l'objet telle qu'elle est définie par le modèle actualisé. Si le modèle actualisé est satisfaisant, le système infographique conserve le modèle actualisé comme modèle final. En revanche, si le modèle actualisé n'est pas satisfaisant, l'opérateur peut à nouveau actualiser l'ombrage et permettre au système infographique de générer un autre champ de vecteur perpendiculaire actualisé et un autre champ de hauteur actualisé, afin de générer ainsi un autre modèle actualisé de l'objet. Les opérations peuvent être répétées jusqu'à ce que l'opérateur détermine que l'objet est satisfaisant.
