Patent EP-0632492-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HODGES ROBERT LOUIS
IPC: H01L21/8244
Filed: 1994-06-27
Abstract: A prior art thin film transistor structure having a first and a second polycrystalline silicon layer of different conductivity types (P and N) has a high resistance contact at the resultant P-N junction. This contact resistance is reduced by forming TiSi 2  (titanium disilicide) or other refractory metal silicides such as cobalt or molybdenum in specific regions, namely the P-N junction contact. Titanium disilicide consumes the portion of the second polycrystalline silicon layer in the P-N contact junction and at the same time consumes a small portion of the underlying first polycrystalline silicon layer, such that the high resistance P-N junction now no longer exists. 
     The procedure to form low resistance contacts is extended to achieve a low leakage polysilicon TFT device. One or more LDD regions are formed to reduce the amount of leakage current of such transistor devices in an "OFF" state. The source/drain region(s) of the device are implanted with a first dopant type followed by an etch which forms spacers above the source/drain regions. Then, the source/drain regions are implanted with a second dopant type so that LDD regions are formed beneath the spacers. The electric field at the gate and source/drain boundaries of the device is spread over the entire LDD region, resulting in a lower peak electric field and hence less device leakage current.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide an optical transmitter which enables the reduction of the strong dependency of the transmission characteristic on the high-speed polarization scrambler driving signal phase. The light outputted from a light source is converted to a RZ pulse by an electro-absorption modulator. The RZ pulse is modulated by a data modulator, and the polarization thereof is scrambled in a high-speed electro-optic polarization scrambler and outputted from the output terminal thereof. Since, in the present invention, the light is once changed to a RZ pulse, the strong dependency of the optical signal transmission characteristic on the high-speed polarization scrambler driving signal phase can be reduced. Further, if the phase of the RZ pulse in the NRZ modulation signal is made to synchronize with the rising edge or the falling edge of the NRZ signal, the dependency on the high-speed polarization scrambler driving signal phase can be further reduced.

Abstract: The method involves determining from the points of the network in a predetermined region of each quantised point the best compromise in terms of a predetermined relationship between the distortion arising from the quantisation of the point and the bit rate arising from the length of the code allocated to that point. Those corresponding to the determined points are retained as quantised points for coding. The quantised points can belong to several networks and the distortion is minimised among them. In both cases, the polar coordinates of each quantised point are coded. A variation minimises (d + Lr) where d is the distortion, r is the bit rate obtained and L is the Lagrange constant.
