Patent EP-1047161-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HERITIER JEAN-MARC
IPC: H01S3/092
Filed: 2000-04-05
Abstract: In a laser system which produces radiation which is
highly absorbed by water, the pump voltage supplied to
the laser rod is slowly increased between the lasing
threshold voltage and the full operational voltage of
the pump. As a result, the output energy and
circulating energy of the system slowly increase, such
that any water on the intracavity coatings is vaporized
slowly, rather than explosively. The laser system and
method of using same thus reduce or prevent damage to
the intracavity coatings used within the laser cavity.

Abstract: A scroll compressor includes a capacity modulation system. The capacity
modulation system has a piston that is connected to the non-orbiting scroll that
disengages the non-orbiting scroll from the orbiting scroll when a pressure chamber is
placed in communication with the suction chamber of the compressor. The non-orbiting
scroll member moves into engagement with the orbiting scroll when the chamber is
placed in communication with the discharge chamber. The engagement between the
two scrolls is broken when the pressure chamber is placed in communication with fluid
from the suction chamber. A solenoid valve controls the communication between the
pressure chamber and the suction chamber. By operating the valve in a pulsed width
modulated mode, the capacity of the compressor can be infinitely varied between zero
and one hundred percent.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft die Veränderung von Peptidsynthetasen (PPS) in der Weise, daß sie ihre Substrataminosäuren N-methylieren können. PPS sind Enzyme, die Peptide auf nicht-ribosomale Weise synthetisieren. Die PPS sind modular aufgebaut. Jedes Modul besitzt eine Aktivierungsdomäne, welche die jeweilige Substrataminosäure erkennt und kovalent bindet. Die von der PPS katalysierte Peptidsynthese erfolgt dann durch die Kondensation der kovalent gebundenen Substrataminosäuren. Eine geringe Anzahl der bekannten Aktivierungsdomänen ist in der Lage, die gebundenen Substrataminosäuren auch zu N-methylieren. Die hier beschriebene Erfindung ermöglicht die Umwandlung von Aktivierungsdomänen ohne N-Methyltransferase-Aktivität in Aktivienngsolomänen nu7 N-île-thyltransferase-Aktivität, wobei die ursprüngliche Substratspezifität erhalten bleibt.

leadframe, has a network of power distribution lines (251,252)
deposited on the surface of the chip so that these lines
are located over active components (202,203) of the IC,
connected vertically by metal-filled vias (260) to selected
active components below the lines, and also by conductors

chip periphery onto the newly created bondable lines.
The network is deposited and patterned in wafer
processing as a sequence of metal layers specifically suited
for providing power current and electrical ground potential.
The network has attachable outermost metal surface and is
laid out so that network portions form pads convenient for
attaching balls of bonding wires or solder.
