Patent EP-2795675-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HECK JOHN
IPC: H01L27/14
Filed: 2011-12-20
Abstract: Photonic passivation layers, III-V semiconductor die with offcut edges, and NiGe contact metallization for silicon-based photonic integrated circuits (PICs). In embodiments, a non-sacrificial passivation layer is formed on a silicon photonic element, such as a waveguide for protection of the waveguide surfaces. In embodiments, a III-V semiconductor film is transferred from a III-V growth substrate that is singulated along streets that are misaligned from cleave planes to avoid crystallographic etch artifacts in a layer transfer process. In embodiments, a NiGe contact metallization is employed for both p-type and n-type contacts on a device formed in the transferred III-V semiconductor layer to provide low specific contact resistance and compatibility with MOS processes.

Title: Method and apparatus pertaining to bluetooth tm-conveyed voice-based user input
Inventor: NATHWANI SANJAY
IPC: H04M1/60
Filed: 2012-07-31
Abstract: An apparatus having both a Bluetooth-compatible transceiver and a cellular-telephony transceiver has a control circuit operably coupled to the foregoing configured to facilitate at least one on-board application using voice-based user input. The control circuit, upon determining that a call-setup message as received via the Bluetooth-compatible transceiver specifies a particular predetermined number (such as a predetermined number that comprises an invalid number to serve as a telephone number) to call, automatically uses audio content received via the Bluetooth-compatible transceiver as the aforementioned voice-based user input for that on-board application. By one approach, the apparatus can provide that predetermined number to a given secondary platform as part of a conveyed contacts list. In other words voice control of an application of an apparatus, here a smart phone, via a Bluetooth connected remote Bluetooth device is possible, like e.g. via a handsfree kit in a car. As part of the process a telephone call is mimicked on the Bluetooth connection from the secondary platform to the smart phone using a telephone number which in fact can not be used for a normal call.
