Abstract: A negative resistance device (NRD) has a MOSFET-like structure, and is biased by:-
   shorting the gate and source together at a fixed applied potential and applying
a different fixed potential to the drain, and   sweeping the bulk potential towards the drain potential, causing the bulk
current to exhibit a negative resistance characteristic.    
     The NRD may be used in a memory circuit (10) in which a resistor (R) is connected
between the bulk (2) and a fixed potential. Two States of the circuit at which the
current through the resistor matches that through the bulk of the NRD are stable,
providing for bistable memory operation.

Patent EP-1332529-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GOFER YOSEF
IPC: H01M4/62
Filed: 2000-12-12
Abstract: A cathode material featuring PVM for use in rechargeable electrochemical cells. It has been discovered that the polymer backbone of PVM, which consists solely of carbon atoms, is not subject to scission during repeated charge-discharge cycles, such that the cathode material remains substantially insoluble in standard liquid electrolytes. As a result, cells containing PVM as the cathode material and liquid electrolyte are genuinely electrochemically reversible. The use of PVM overcomes the problems associated with organosulfides of the background art, with which dissolution of anions in the liquid electrolyte during discharging results in migration from the cathode and contamination of the anode/electrolyte surface and ultimately leads to degradation of the electrolyte and/or deterioration of the anode-electrolyte interface.

Abstract: For the purpose of testing a relay, a safety relay
comprises a key (12) arranged in a housing cover and which
acts upon a lever (38) pivotally mounted on the inside of
the housing. Due to the pivoting of the lever a movable
switching contact carrier of the relay is moved. To avoid
excessive deviation of the switching contact carrier through
excessive lever force and therefore a possible plastic
deformation of the contact carrier springs, the force which
is possibly applied to the switching contact carrier is
restricted by a U-shaped spring (40) held by the lever (38).
A pressure leg (48) is biased by a latching lug (52a, 52b)
supported by a peg formed as one piece with the lever (38).
Consequently the switching contact carrier is moved via the
spring with only a predetermined maximum force, so that a
deformation of the springs supporting the contact pieces is
avoided and the contact pieces maintain the required
specified contact distance.

Abstract: A wireless communication device, a wireless
communication system using the same, and a communication
method therefor are provided. When a wireless
communication device operated as a slave intends to
communicate with other slave communication devices, the
communication-intending slave device transmits a packet
where an address of a destination slave device is recorded
in a header region as a destination address to the
wireless communication device operated as a master. When
the address recorded in the header region of the packet is
an address of another slave device, not the communication
-intending slave device, the master device transmits the
packet to the wireless communication device of the
destination address. Accordingly, the communication is
performed using the address recorded in the header region
of the transmitted packet as the destination address. As
a result, peer-to-peer communication between the slave
devices is performed, without increasing a data processing
load in the Bluetooth communication.

Abstract: A method of bonding a piezoelectric element 28a
and an electrode 24, 26, in which a first coating 46, 48
of a material selected from the group consisting of Au,
Al, Zn, Cu, and Sn is formed on a bonding surface of the
piezoelectric element, and a second coating 50, 52 of a
material selected from the same group is formed on a
bonding surface of the electrode. The combination of the
materials of the first and second coatings is preferably
Au/Au, Au/Al, Zn/Cu, or Sn/Cu. The method further
includes the step of bringing the first and second
coatings into close contact with each other and heating
them under pressure, perhaps ultrasonically, to form a
metallic bond or intermetallic compound between the first
and second coatings, thereby bonding the piezoelectric
element and the electrode. Alternatively a solder bond
can be used. These methods reduce the risk of a short-circuit
between the two electrodes.
