Abstract: A metal or dielectric film deposited on a semiconductor substrate 8 is subsequently bombarded with ions while the substrate 8 is heated to a temperature high enough to cause reflow of the film, whereby voids in the film can be filled or the surface of the film can be planarized. The energy of the bombarding ions preferably is high enough to produce lattice defects in the film and high enough that the temperature required to achieve reflow is less than would be required in the absence of ion bombardment.

Abstract: An extrusion blow mounding control system for controlling parison wall thickness in an extrusion blow moulding machine comprises a wall thickness controller 10 for controlling the width of an extrusion die gap 5 defining parison wall thickness within the machine, an interface unit 14 for supplying an input signal to the wall thickness controller 10 dependent on an actual position signal from a position transducer 12 indicative of the actual position of a movable die member 6 delimiting the die gap 5, and an output for supplying a desired position signal from the wall thickness controller to an electrohydraulic servo valve 9 for controlling the position of the movable die member 6 to provide a desired width of the die gap 5. The interface unit 14 comprises signal processing circuitry for receiving the actual position signal from the position transducer 12 and a feedback signal from an automatic weighing system 16 indicative of weight variation of product outputted by the machine and for producing the input signal for the wall thickness controller 10 in dependence on the actual position signal and the feedback signal.

Inventor: FLEEK ARTHUR E
IPC: H04L27/20
Filed: 1995-09-22
Abstract: The oscillator at the sending node of a wireless digital network, generates a carrier signal, starting at a first instant. A modulator coupled to the oscillator performs phase shift modulating of the carrier signal with an input signal. A spoiler signal generator is coupled to the modulator, for providing a spoiler signal as the input signal, starting at the first instant and continuing for a first duration which is longer than a period needed for the oscillator to achieve stable characteristics. 
     A transmitter is coupled to the modulator at the sending node, for transmitting a wireless radio signal representation of the carrier signal phase shift modulated with the spoiler signal to a receiver at a receiving node. 
     The spoiler signal in the modulated carrier signal interrupts the periodic characteristic of the pulses, and thereby prevents the carrier sensor from detecting the carrier signal. Further, the spoiler signal ceases to modulate the carrier signal after the first duration when the oscillator has achieved stable characteristics, thereby enabling the carrier sensor to detect the carrier signal.

Abstract: An electric power distribution system is shown where even if supply of electric power is interrupted, other normal electric part systems can be operated. A number of electric power distribution portions are supplied with electric power through at least two systems of electric power lines. The amounts of electric currents in the two systems of the trunk lines respectively are detected and monitored by a sensor and each current detection portion. Moreover, a controller controls a switch corresponding to a sensor which has detected an abnormal value among output values from a number of current detection portions to make non-conductive the trunk line from which the abnormal value has been detected. If a fault takes place in, for example, the trunk line between the electric power distribution portions, the two ends of the trunk line respectively are disconnected by the switch. Moreover, electric power is supplied from another electric power distribution portion through the residual electric power line of the two systems of the electric power lines.
