Abstract: A method of forming an engine airfoil part. The attributes of a final workpiece product are selected. An appropriate substrate composition is determined depending on the selected attributes. A workpiece substrate is formed to near-finished dimensions. An appropriate coating material composition is determined depending on the selected attributes. The workpiece substrate is prepared for a high-density coating process. The high-density coating process, such as HVOF thermal spray, is performed to coat the workpiece substrate with the coating material. The coating material is built-up to a thickness effective to obtain desired finished dimensions after performing a hot isostatic pressing treatment. The appropriate hot isostatic pressing treatment parameters are determined. The hot isostatic pressing treatment is performed on the coated workpiece substrate to obtain a metal product having the desired finished dimensions and diffusion bonding between the coating material and the workpiece substrate.

Abstract: A circuit and method for detecting when the back emf of a motor coil passes a predetermined level includes circuitry for providing a voltage proportional to the back emf of the motor coil, and circuitry for providing a voltage proportional to a reference potential. A first bias voltage is added to the voltage proportional to the back emf to produce a first added voltage, and a second bias voltage os added to the reference potential when the back emf of the motor coil is expected to change in a predetermined direction to produce a second added voltage. A comparator produces an output change when the first added voltage becomes larger than the second added voltage at the predetermined level.

Abstract: With the new plasma display panel technology new kinds of artefacts
can occur in video pictures. These artefacts are commonly
described as "dynamic false contour effect", since they
correspond to disturbances of gray levels and colors in the
form of an apparition of colored edges in the picture when
the observation point on the PDP screen moves. According to
the invention, such an artefact is compensated by analyzing
the motion in the pictures, assigning to each block of a picture
a corresponding motion vector and performing a re-coding
step in which the different sub-fields of a pixel are shifted
to distribute the sub-fields of a pixel more closely on the
eye trajectory.

Abstract: The traffic shaping system according to the principles of the present invention
increases the connection-carrying capacity of a network node by shaping the data cells
to increase the admissible number of connections. In accordance with certain
embodiments of the present invention, the traffic shaping system uses a data buffer at
the ingress of the network node to selectively buffer classes of data cells. As such, the
traffic shaping system exploits differences in delay tolerances between traffic classes to
shape the less delay sensitive traffic classes to reduce the effective bandwidth of a
connection of the particular traffic class and thereby increase the nodal connection-carrying
capacity. Certain embodiments of the traffic shaping system operate within a
framework to provide parameters for the traffic shaping system which increase the
connection-carrying capacity for the node while meeting quality of service
requirements for the data cells. In accordance with certain embodiments, an integrated
regulator and shaper is provided which concurrently regulates and shapes the traffic
cells to increase the nodal connection-carrying capacity.

Abstract: Metallic contaminants in a submicron silicon
surface layer of a semiconductor wafer (105) are
detected by first applying a photon flux to the wafer
(105) using a high-injection surface photovoltage
technique over a range of frequencies to obtain a
frequency dispersion plot of the wafer. First and
second optical chopping frequencies are then selected
from the frequency dispersion plot, and the
semiconductor wafer (105) is again radiated with the
photon flux at the first selected optical chopping
frequency for generation of a surface barrier height
map (400) showing a distribution of charges and values
of such charges on the surface layer at the selected
chopping frequency. The surface layer of the
semiconductor wafer (105) is then radiated again with
the photon flux at the second, different optical
chopping frequency for generation of a second surface
barrier height map (500) of the wafer. The wafer
(105) is the annealed, and the process is repeated for
generation of a frequency dispersion plot and surface
barrier height maps (700, 800) for the annealed wafer.
The frequency dispersion plots and surface barrier
height maps (700, 800) generated for the annealed
wafer are compared with the plots and maps (400, 500)
generated for the un-annealed wafer in order to gauge
the level of metal contaminants in the submicron
surface layer of the wafer.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un autre mode de réalisation de l'amplification en chaîne par polymérase ne mettant pas en application de polymérases d'ADN thermostables. Elle concerne des moyens servant à gérer de façon contrôlée des conditions de dénaturation qui ne nécessitent pas d'utiliser une température de dénaturation élevée. Elle concerne, plus particulièrement, des moyens servant à effectuer l'oscillation contrôlée d'ions métalliques divalents, de préférence, d'ions métalliques divalents, tels que Cu?2+, Zn2+, Mn2+ et Cd2+¿, dont on sait qu'ils déstabilisent l'hélice d'ADN et, de ce fait, augmentent la température de fusion de cette dernière. Elle concerne également des procédés servant à automatiser ce procédé. On peut, par exemple, au moyen de la réduction cathodique d'espèces métalliques divalentes, diminuer la concentration à des niveaux permettant d'hybrider de nouveau des brins séparés avec les amorces, tandis que l'oxydation de dépôts métalliques ou l'oxydation d'ions métalliques monovalents peuvent restituer la concentration initialement élevée permettant de séparer les deux brins constituant l'hélice d'ADN. Le contrôle électrolytique de l'activité des ions métalliques constitue alors un outil de dénaturation isothermique répétitive de l'ADN duplex et on peut, par conséquent, l'utiliser afin de remplacer la répétition thermique dans l'amplification du matériau génétique. La dénaturation isothermique d'ADNds peut présenter une importance considérable pour l'industrie biotechnologique et biomédicale. Un avantage clé de ce procédé réside dans le fait qu'il ouvre des perspectives pour une variété étendue de polymérases d'ADN qu'on peut utiliser avec cette amplification.
