Patent EP-1540733-A2 (EP)
Inventor: AUGUSTO CARLOS J R P
IPC: H01L27/146
Filed: 2003-09-15
Abstract: A method of fabricating light-sensing devices including photodiodes monolithically integrated with CMOS devices. Several types of photodiode devices (PIN, HIP) are expitaxially grown in one single step on active areas implanted in a common semiconductor substrate, the active areas having defined polarities. The expitaxially grown layers for the photodiode devices may be either undoped or in-situ doped with profiles suitable for their respective operation. With appropriate choice of substrate materials, device layers and heterojunction engineering and process architecture, it is possible to fabricate silicon-based and germanium-based multi-spectral sensors that can deliver pixel density and cost of fabrication comparable to the state of the art CCDs and CMOS image sensors. The method can be implemented with epitaxially deposited films on the following substrates: Silicon Bulk, Thick-Film and Thin-Film Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI), Germanium Bulk, Thick-Film and Thin-Film Geranium-On-Insulator (GeOI).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne, pour certains de ses modes de réalisation, un appareil et des procédés d'aérosolisation de liquide. Un mode de réalisation de l'invention concerne un appareil produisant un aérosol. Cet appareil comporte un actionneur à deux faces, traversé d'un orifice, un vibreur en communication mécanique avec l'actionneur, et une fermeture étanche configurée pour isoler le vibreur d'un environnement. Selon certains modes de réalisation, l'appareil comprend également un organe d'aérosolisation monté sur l'actionneur et disposé sensiblement au-dessus de l'orifice, l'organe d'aérosolisation étant traversé d'au moins un orifice. Il en résulte que le vibreur peut être mis à vibrer, entraînant dans son mouvement l'organe d'aérosolisation de façon à pouvoir distribuer, par l'orifice considéré, un liquide présent sur la première face de l'organe d'aérosolisation. Pour certains modes de réalisation, une électrode est couplée au vibreur.

Abstract: A system and method are used to recycle gases in a lithography tool. A first chamber (202) includes an element that emits light based on a first gas (208). A second chamber (204) uses the emitted light to perform a process and includes the second gas (210). The first and second gases converge between the two chambers, and at least one of the gases is pumped to a storage device (318). From the storage device, at least one of the two gases is recycled either within the system or remote from the system and possibly reused within the system.

Abstract: An architecture for minimizing calibration effort in an IEEE 802.11 device
location measurement system. The calibration technique is based upon a regression
function that produces adequately accurate location information as a function of signal
strength regardless of gaps in the calibration data or minimally available data. The
algorithm takes a set of signal strengths from known room locations in a building and
generates a function giving (x,y) as a function of signal strength, which function may
then be used for the estimation of new locations. Radial basis functions, which are
simple to express and compute, are used for regression. The fact that the algorithm maps
signal strength to continuous location makes it possible to skip rooms during calibration,
yet still evaluate the location in those rooms.

Abstract: In a receiving apparatus which establishes
communication connection with an external electronic device
via a data bus compliant with a predetermined communication
format, stream data is received regardless of the type of
data, i.e., encrypted stream data, non-encrypted stream data,
revoked stream data, and sends an authentication request to
the external electronic device. Then, the receiving
apparatus obtains information for decrypting the encrypted
stream data sent from the external electronic device after
succeeding authentication. This enables, in most cases, the
receiving apparatus to obtain the decryption information
before receiving encrypted stream data.

Abstract: In a pipe forming process using bending rolls, load
applied to an upper roll (34) is reduced to suppress the
deflection of the upper roll, thereby suppressing the
creation of a large end gap at the longitudinal center of
the pipe, thus enabling the production of high-strength,
thick-walled, elongated pipes. This is achieved by
effecting pipe forming work on sheet material (10) such
that the spacing L of the lower rolls (32) satisfies the
condition (Dp + Dwl) > L ≥ 0.85 (Dp + Dwl), where Dp
represents the outside diameter of the product pipe and Dwl
represents the diameter of one of the plural rolls.

Abstract: The electronic load apparatus where an inductance is given to the source of a
transistor for controlling load current, so that the frequency response characteristic of
the electronic load control loop and the electronic load transient response characteristics
at the starting of the power supply to be tested are improved; and by providing a
non-linear element between the input and output of an operational amplifier for the
driving transistor of the controlling circuit, a better load current control characteristic is
obtained in a wide load current range. In an apparatus where a plurality of electronic
load modules are connected together in parallel, by adding a voltage signal converted
from the output of a voltage generating circuit for correcting load current slew rate by
the correcting coefficient adding circuit for adding a coefficient which is inversely
proportional to the residual inductance to a voltage generated in a reference voltage
generating circuit for controlling load current, a voltage saturation in the load transistor
when the transistor works at a low voltage can be prevented, so that the load current
slew rate of the electronic load apparatus is improved. Further, in an AC electronic
load apparatus, an inductance for compensating frequency characteristics is given to the
source of the load current control transistor in series. Therefore, the frequency
response characteristics of the load current control feedback loop is greatly improved,
and even at the cross over point where the current polarity is changed, the apparatus
operates without causing a large distortion, and thus the apparatus can be used to test the
AC power supply working with a high frequency.
