Title: Method of manufacturing optical devices and related improvements
Inventor: MARSH JOHN HAIG
IPC: H01L21/18
Filed: 2001-09-13
Granted: 2004-02-18
Abstract: There is disclosed an improved method of manufacturing an optical device using an impurity induced Quantum Well Intermixing (QWI) process. Reported QWI methods, particularly Impurity Free Vacancy Diffusion (IFVD) methods, suffer from a number of disadvantages, e.g. the temperature at which Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) out-diffuses from the semiconductor material to the Silica (SiO2) film. Accordingly, the present invention provides a method of manufacturing an optical device, a device body portion (5a) from which the device is to be made including at least one Quantum Well (QW) (10A), the method comprising the step of: causing a first material to diffuse into the device body portion (5a), and also material of the device body portion (5a) to diffuse out and into a second material. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE>

Title: Wireless communication system,unit and method
Inventor: SERFATY SALOMON
IPC: H04W84/08
Filed: 2002-08-10
Granted: 2005-05-18
Abstract: A communication system comprises a plurality of mobile wireless communication terminals that are operable to communicate with one another either directly or via an intermediary communicating unit, wherein the communication system includes a mobile communication terminal capable of being configured as a primary communication terminal for communications on a time divided communication resource with one or more secondary communication terminals, the communication system being characterised by one or more of the secondary communication terminals (620) being operable to transmit one or more beacon signals during available time periods of the time divided communication resource whilst participating in a communication in a direct mode with another mobile communication terminal (610) acting as a primary terminal, to inform other secondary communication terminals (630) not participating in the call that the communication resource is being utilised. <??>Advantageously the provision of beacon signals in available time periods of the communication resource whilst a communication is ongoing ensures that terminals outside of a coverage range of a primary (master) terminal do not attempt to access the communication resource and create signal collisions in so doing. <??>A related terminal and method of operation are also described. <IMAGE>

Granted: 2007-03-28
Abstract: A razor head (2) has mutually spaced blade members (7) with straight front cutting edges (8) which are mutually parallel and lie in a cutting plane (12). The blade members (7) are curved. Imaginary median surfaces (16) of the blade members (7) are continuously curved in the same sense away from the cutting plane (12), from the cutting edges (8) toward the rear edges. The handle (1) has a pair of fork arms (6), the distal ends of which are connected to the head at positions adjacent the respective ends of the head (2). Each fork arm (6) has a groove (49) allowing pivoting of the distal end about a pivot axis parallel to the head axis, the grooves (49) being mutually aligned on the same side of the forked end portion (4) of the handle (1). Each groove (49) is filled with a resiliently deformable material (54) which is deformed when a pivoting force is applied to the razor head (2) during shaving and which restores the razor head (2) to a normal position when the force is removed. The head (2) has undercut apertures (42) in rear abutment surfaces (43), and the distal ends of the fork arms (6) have detent elements (44) projecting forwardly from front abutment surfaces (46). The front and rear abutment surfaces (46,43) abut against one another and the detent elements (44) engage in the undercut apertures (42) in such a manner that the head (2) is fixed relative to the distal ends of the fork arms (6), the distal ends being movable toward one another to disengage the detent elements (44) from the undercut apertures (42) and allow the head (2) to be removed from the handle (1).

Title: Data check method and system
Inventor: HIJII KAZUYOSHI
IPC: G06F12/16
Filed: 1996-05-01
Granted: 1999-11-10
Abstract: An internal ROM of a CPU stores in advance a plurality of check start addresses and a skip value. The internal ROM of a CPU also stores a storing address that is determined from among retrieval addresses obtained by sequentially adding the skip value to the check start address. The external ROM stores a check sum in each storing address, where the check sum is calculated to data in each retrieval address that is determined for each combination of the check start address and the skip value. For checking the external ROM, data of retrieval addresses that are determined with a check start address and a skip value of a selected combination are read and calculated with check sum. Then the calculated check sum and the check sum stored in the storing address are compared. If they are the same each other, the external ROM is decided as normal.

A third position of the cap 16 allows for its removal from container 10 such that the beverage may be dispensed. The container may be provided with a thermochromatic coating to indicate when the liquid is at a predetermined temperature.

Filed: 1998-03-24
Granted: 2001-08-22
Abstract: The present invention relates to the process of preparing a stable fixed dose composition of anti-infective agent with micro organism as active ingredients. The process includes preparation of various dosage forms for oral route like capsule, tablet and liquid formulation. The process comprises providing an appropriate barrier by way of selected coating procedure to one of the active ingredients in such a way that micro organisms are not affected by anti-infective agetns. This results in a stable composition. The ratio of micro organism to anti-infective agents in a composition can be 1:2 to 1:25 by weight. The amount of coating is dependent on the type of coating technique, dosage form i.e. capsule, tablet or liquid and desired self life. The compositions eliminate gastro intestinal disturbances associated with anti-infective agents. The anti-infective agent may be ampicillin, amoxycillin, cloxacillin cephalexin, cefuroxime or cefixime and the micro organism is preferably a Lacto bacillus.

Granted: 1986-08-13
Abstract: In a multi-stage granulating method, each stage includes granulating prim. crumbs of material by spraying with a binding and solidifying liq. accompanied by a gas stream, followed by one or more fluidised bed cooling and drying zones, whose output is fed to the next stage. After passing through the necessary number of stages, the enlarged granules are given a final cooling/drying treatment. Any fine particles entrained are removed and returned to the spray bed zones. The binding liq. and the gas for the granulating and fluidising zones are supplied at increasing speeds as the stages progress. The final prod. is divided into three grades, with the medium sizes for direct use, the oversize for grinding, and the undersize for prim. crumbs, or in molten or dissolved form as the spraying liq. Esp. applicable to mixed fertilisers. The system has greater capacity than similar systems using parallel feed routes.
