IPC: H01L21/321
Filed: 1988-09-28
Abstract: Gate sidewall spacers are created by a 
two-step procedure in fabricating a field-effect transistor 
using a protective material such as silicon nitride to 
prevent gate-electrode oxidation. In the first step, 
a layer (32) of insulating material is conformally 
deposited and then substantially removed except for small 
spacer portions (34) adjoining the sidewalls of a doped 
non-monocrystalline semiconductor layer (20A) destined 
to become the gate electrode (36). The second step consists 
of performing an oxidizing heat treatment to increase the 
thickness of the spacer portions. No significant gate 
dielectric encroachment occurs. Also, the spacers achieve 
a profile that substantially avoids electrical shorts.

Abstract: An improved visor assembly for motor vehicles is 
disclosed which includes one or more retractable glare 
screens (14, 16) which are integrated with the visor 
structure (10) such that they can be extended and 
retracted from the visor as needed. The glare screens 
are preferably made from a transparent tinted material 
which reduces the intensity of bright lights or glare 
which the driver may be exposed to. The glare screens 
are guided for retracting movement through using slot 
followers (52, 64) which travel in elongated guide 
slots (48, 50) formed by the visor center board 
member (20). Clearance slots (26, 28) are formed along 
the perimeter edge of the visor by using elongated 
reinforcement members (30, 32). The visor can be 
produced economically and enables the glare screens to 
be extended and retracted without binding.

Title: A method for fine decomposition in finite element mesh generation
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 1989-03-28
Abstract: A method for fine decomposition in finite element 
mesh generation, in which a polygonal boundary of a 
domain is input into the system by an analyst and the 
domain is automatically divided into rough elements 
generally corresponding to Voronoi regions, that is, 
regions which are closer to respective ones of the 
polygonal line segments or reflex vertices 
therebetween. Any arc portion of these regions is 
converted to a straight line. Additional lines are 
formed between interior vertices of the rough regions 
so that all rough regions are either triangles or 
trapezoids. Adjacent rough regions are then paired 
across internal boundaries and are classified into four 
types. The rough regions are then subdivided into fine 
regions of triangular shape according to rules 
associated with each of the four types. The degree of 
fine subdivision can be controlled according to known 
equations providing the total number of fine elements. 
Finite difference equations are solved on the so 
generated fine regions and a physical variable is 
displayed in pictorial form. The analyst then 
readjusts the domain boundary and repeats the process.

Abstract: Ein Verfahren dient zum Schleifen von Nocken (10) einer Nocken­
welle. Die Nocken (10) werden um eine durch das Zentrum eines 
Grundkreises (15) der Nocken (10) verlaufende erste Achse 
(13) mit vorgegebener Winkelgeschwindigkeit ( ω ) gedreht. 
Eine Schleifscheibe (20) liegt mit einer zu der ersten Achse 
(13) parallelen Mantellinie (23) an den Nocken (10) an. Sie 
wird in Abhängigkeit von der Drehstellung (  ) der Nocken 
(10) relativ zur ersten Achse (13) entlang einer zweiten Achse 
(11) bewegt, die senkrecht auf der ersten Achse (13) steht. 
Dies geschieht derart, daß die Mantellinie (23) während der 
Drehung der Nocken (10) auf einer vorbestimmten Nockenkontur 
(15, 16, 17) wandert, wobei die Winkelgeschwindigkeit ( ω ) 
während der Drehung der Nocken (10) variiert wird. Auf diese 
Weise wandert die Mantellinie (23) entlang dem Grundkreis 
(15) mit höherer Winkelgeschwindigkeit ( ω G  ), entlang von 
Flanken (16) und einer Spitze (17) der Nocken (10) hingegen 
mit verminderter Winkelgeschwindigkeit ( ω F  ).  
     Um ohne Erhöhung der Gesamtschleifzeit die verbleibenden 
Nockenformfehler zu vermindern, wird die Winkelgeschwindigkeit 
( ω ) im Bereiche der Spitze (17) auf einen Wert ( ω S  ) 
oberhalb der verminderten Winkelgeschwindigkeit ( ω F  ), jedoch 
unterhalb der höheren Winkelgeschwindigkeit ( ω G  ) eingestellt.

Title: Camera system
IPC: G03B7/08
Filed: 1989-05-16
Abstract: A camera system comprises a brightness measuring 
circuit, a exposure line choosing circuit, an operable 
switch, a film driver and a film driving mode selector.  
     The brightness measuring circuit measures brightness 
of a photographic scene to send a brightness value. 
The exposure line choosing circuit chooses one of a 
plurality of exposure lines in which each lines selects 
a combination of an aperture value and a shutter speed 
value at each brightness value. The film driver drives 
a film in either of a first mode in which the film is 
wound only one frame in response to the operation of 
the operable switch and a second mode in which the film 
is wound frame by frame continuously as long as the 
operable member is operated. The film driving mode 
selector selects one of the modes in accordance with the 
exposure line chosen by the choosing circuit.  
     In the camera system, a photographer may only 
select the exposure mode in accordance with his 
intention and purpose in photography, and then the film 
driving mode corresponding to the intention and purpose 
is automatically selected.

IPC: H01L21/60
Filed: 1989-07-04
Abstract: A process for making metal contacts and interconnection 
lines which are self-aligned to each other is disclosed. 
After semiconductor devices are formed and an in­
sulating/planarizing layer is deposited, a layer of 
polyimide is deposited. A pattern of trenches into 
which the metal interconnection lines will be deposited 
is formed in the polyimide layer. Next, a pattern of 
contacts to the underlying semiconductor devices is 
formed in a photoresist layer. This pattern of contacts 
is subsequently etched into the insulating/planarizing 
layer. Since both the patterned photoresist layer and 
the patterned polyimide layer are used as etch masks, 
thc contact windows through the insulating/planarizing 
layer and the trenches in the polyimide layer will be 
aligned with respect to each other. After metal de­
position, the metal contacts and interconnection lines 
will be self-aligned.

Title: Device including a component in alignment with a substrate-supported waveguide
IPC: G02B6/42
Filed: 1989-02-22
Abstract: In an optical device such as, e.g., 
an optical communications coupler 
or an optical gyroscope, a substrate-supported 
waveguide is aligned with a device 
component such as, e.g., an optical 
fiber or a photodetector. Optical alignment of 
such component (61) relative to the waveguide (64) 
is facilitated as the component is 
located in a preferentially etched 
groove (31) in the substrate supporting the 
waveguide (11). In the case of an optical 
fiber connection, optical coupling is 
facilitated by a ledge structure (41) overhanging 
a sloping etched wall of a groove 
holding the fiber (14). In the case of a 
photodetector, an etched groove may be 
essentially perpendicular to the direction of light propagation.

Title: Methods and apparatus for winding stators for electric motors and the like
IPC: H02K15/095
Filed: 1990-01-19
Abstract: The density, regularity, and efficiency of the coils wound on a stator (e.g., an electric motor stator) are improved by providing winding needle trajectories which tend to urge the wire to fill empty areas which may otherwise develop in the coils at the ends of the stator. The phase relationship between the oscillation and reciprocation components of needle motion is selected to optimize coil formation. In particular, each oscillation stroke is typically somewhat delayed (as compared to the prior apparatus) relative to the reversal of reciprocation direction. The reciprocation stroke length is also typically increased. Needle actuation apparatus in which adjustment of these parameters is facilitated is also disclosed.
