Abstract: A cable gland (1) for earthing or screening cables (2) has a threaded sleeve (4) of an electrically conductive material, in particular of metal, and, connectable thereto, a mating sleeve (5) which can be constructed as a pressure connecting stub (Fig. 7) or as a union nut (e.g. Fig. 1). A clamping insert (6), which can be pressed against the cable (2) by screwing up the threaded sleeve (4) and the mating sleeve (5), serves to fix the cable (2) which has metal braiding for earthing or screening the cable interior. In this construction, the mating sleeve (5) acts on and engages over the clamping insert (6), with an essentially annular pressure surface (7), on at least one of its end faces. When the thread which is located between the threaded sleeve (4) and the mating sleeve (5) and has a tapering form is tightened, in the exemplary embodiment by means of a conical mould which in this case is located on the mating sleeve (5), it radially deforms a region of the clamping insert (6), which is provided with axial slots (8) and thus forms clamping fingers (9) between these slots (8), in the direction of the cable 1. The clamping insert (6) in this case has on its region facing away from the clamping fingers (9) an extension (10) out of which stripped wires (3) of the metal braiding protrude in the axial direction. In this case, the clamping insert (6) consists of an insulating material or plastic, has an approximately annular cross-section and, as far as it engages therein, fits into the interior of the threaded sleeve (4) in a manner such that the shapes are essentially accurately matched. Its extension (10) is in this case constructed like a sleeve or a connecting stub. The protruding wires (3) can be bent onto the outside of the extension (10), and the envelope surface of the wires on the outside of the clamping insert (10) has in its initial position a cross-section or diameter which is larger than that which would correspond to the inside diameter of the threaded sleeve (4). The clamping insert (6) is in this case resiliently flexible in the radial direction at least in this region (10) which supports the wires (3) on its outside, so that after being plugged together, the wires are firmly pressed against the inside of the threaded sleeve (4), which acts as a contact surface (17). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process and method for producing strained and defect free semiconductor layers. In a preferred embodiment, silicon on insulator may be used as a substrate for the growth of fully relaxed SiGe buffer layers. A new strain relief mechanism operates, whereby the SiGe layer relaxes without the generation of threading dislocations within the SiGe layer. This is achieved by depositing SiGe on an SOI substrate with a superficial silicon thickness. Initially the strain in the SiGe layer becomes equalized with the thin Si layer by creating tensile strain in the Si layer. Then the strain created in the thin Si layer is relaxed by plastic deformation during an anneal. Since dislocations are formed, and glide in the thin Si layer, threading dislocations are not introduced into the upper SiGe material. A strained silicon layer for heterostructures may then be formed on the SiGe material.

Abstract: An ink fill slot  18  can be precisely manufactured in a substrate  12  utilizing photolithographic techniques with chemical etching. N-type <100> silicon wafers are double-side coated with a dielectric layer  26  comprising a silicon dioxide layer and/or a silicon nitride layer. A photore-sist step, mask alignment, and plasma etch treatment precede an anisotropic etch process, which employs an aniso-tropic etchant for silicon such as KOH or ethylene diamine para-catechol. The anisotropic etch is done from the back-side  12b  of the wafer to the frontside  12a , and terminates on the dielectric layer on the frontside. The dielectric layer on the frontside creates a flat surface for further photoresist processing of thin film resistors  16 .

Abstract: A thermocouple vacuum gauge includes a first thermocouple element (14) spaced below a second thermocouple element (16). The two thermocouple elements are electrically connected in series in a back-to-back manner by connecting together their respective negative ends. A pulse generator (50) supplies a pulsing on-off current only to the first thermocouple element (14). During the off intervals, a switch (44) connects the positive ends of both thermocouple elements to a voltage measuring and comparing circuit (42) which measures a thermally generated voltage signal between the positive ends of the thermocouple elements and compares the measured voltage signal to a reference signal. The result of the comparison is used to vary the output current of the pulse generator so as to supply an amount of current to the first thermocouple element sufficient to cause the measured voltage signal to approach the reference signal. The amount of current supplied sufficient to cause the measured voltage signal to approach the reference signal is proportional to the amount of pressure or vacuum in an enclosure in which the thermocouples of the vacuum gauge are placed.

Abstract: A metal-ceramic composite body is prepared by impregnating a porous ceramic preform with a molten metal. A preform (3, 15), a crucible (7) containing molten metal (6), and a channeling bundle (8) of filaments are set such that one end of the bundle (8) is disposed above the molten metal (6) in the crucible (7) and the other end of the bundle (8) is disposed in contact with the preform (3, 15). The crucible (7) is moved up until the bundle one end is immersed in the molten metal (6) whereby the molten metal (6) is channeled to the preform (3, 15) through the filaments of the bundle (8) for impregnating the preform (3, 15) with the molten metal. The crucible (7) is moved down until the bundle one end is withdrawn from the molten metal (6) whereby supply of the molten metal to the preform (3, 15) is interrupted. The invention facilitates impregnation of porous ceramic preforms of various shapes with molten metal while controlling the feed and feed rate of molten metal, thereby producing metal-ceramic composite bodies without flaw.

Abstract: An integrated circuit device (10) for comparing (at C1 to C96) the state of a large number of inputs (1 to 32), i.e. "discretes", against any one of a plurality of selectable voltage levels. The compared data is examined in a 3x3 matrix format (CH1 FFD-1 to FFD-3, CH2 FFD-1 to FFD-3, CH# FFD-1 to FFD-3). In a redundant mode, comparators are utilized in a triple-redundant configuration to obtain a consensus on input states, at three successive time intervals, raising a flag when consensus fails. Inputs, whether in a redundant or non-redundant mode are distributed along three different sides of a rectangular-shaped substrate to prevent catastrophic mechanical failures. In the redundant mode, discretes are compared using a voting technique (V1) such that when all three levels are the same, an error free status is provided, whereas a two-out-of-three vote is interpreted as correct but with an indication that the discrete being monitored requires further checking. Data, fault and self-test results are made available to the outside world by a parallel/serial transmitter (SPC-1) and in parallel form by discrete output terminals (DATA {15:0}). Output data is compared with data inputted for further assuring integrity of the device (FAULT). Output data is selectable in either an eight bit or sixteen bit tri-state port (TS-1 to TS-12), which is addressable for channel data, status, bounds, mismatch, built-in self-test and major fault information.

Abstract: A light valve (110,111,112) such as an active matrix LCD between crossed polarizers, utilizing, for instance individual transistors to control each "pixel area" of the LCD and storage elements to store video signal data for each pixel, with optically shielded "dead spaces" between pixels to eliminate electric field cross-talk and non-information-bearing light bleed-through, is illuminated with a bright independent light source (100,101,102) which creates a video image projected via specialized projection optics (140) onto an internal or external screen (150) without distortions, regardless of the angle of projection onto the screen. Use of heat sinks, IR reflective coatings, heat absorbing optics, optional fluid and a thermistor controlled pixel transistor bias voltage injection servo circuit stabilizes image performance maintaining accurate color and contrast levels as the LCD changes temperature. In one embodiment of the invention, use of a multi-color LCD with a stepped cavity, producing different thicknesses of LCD for the different wavelengths that pass through it, allows a linear correspondence between the wavelengths passing through the LCD to produce true black, high contrast and CRT-like color rendition. A dichroic mirror arrangement is used to overlap differently colored pixels in the projected image. Use of striped mirrors duplicate pixels, where necessary, eliminating spaces between pixels, creating a continuous image with no apparent stripes or dots. A special venetian-blind type of screen is also disclosed and methods for using the system to view three-dimensional video are also explained.
