Title: Improved process for modifying a polymeric surface
Inventor: JING NAIYONG
IPC: C08J7/00
Filed: 2002-10-21
Abstract: This invention concerns a process for modifying a polymeric substrate by contacting the surface with a photoreactive solution of an inorganic photochemical electron donor while irradiating the surface with actinic radiation. Patterns of modified and unmodified surfaces can be produced. Polymeric substrates with modified surfaces may be effectively bonded to polymer films to form composite articles. The process has particular applicability to the surface modification of fluorinated polymers.

Abstract: Methods and systems for maintaining desired circuit and/or signal
characteristics, such as impedance matching characteristics and rise and fall
time characteristics, over a range of PVT variations. In an embodiment, a
PVT compensating circuit senses one or more circuit and/or signal
characteristics at an output pad or terminal. When the one or more circuit
and/or signal characteristics are affected by PVT variations in the IC and/or
load, the PVT compensating circuit controls a variable output drive to
maintain the one or more circuit and/or signal characteristics within a desired
or predetermined range. The PVT compensating circuit is designed to
compensate over a range of PVT variations. In an embodiment, the PVT
compensating circuit senses a rate of voltage change over time (i.e., dV/dt), of
an output signal at the output terminal. During state transitions of the output
signal, the output signal is adjusted as needed to maintain a desired, or predetermined,
rate of voltage change. The invention further provides impedance
matching characteristics.
