Patent EP-1100167-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ONKELS ECKEHARD D
IPC: H01S3/036
Filed: 2000-05-23
Abstract: A reliable, modular, production quality F 2  excimer laser capable of producing, at
repetition rates in the range of 1,000 to 2,000 Hz or greater, laser pulses with pulse
energies greater than 10 mJ with a full width half, maximum bandwidth of about 1 pm
or less at wavelength in the range of 157 nm. Laser gas concentrations are disclosed for
reducing unwasted infrared emissions from the laser. Also disclosed are UV energy
detectors which are substantially insensitive to infrared light. Preferred embodiments of
the present invention can be operated in the range of 1000 to 4000 Hz with pulse energies
in the range of 10 to 5 mJ with power outputs in the range of 10 to 40 watts. Using this
laser as an illumination source, stepper or scanner equipment can produce integrated
circuit resolution of 0.1 µm or less. Replaceable modules include a laser chamber and
a modular pulse power system. 
     In a preferred embodiment the laser was tuned to the F 2  157.6 nm line using a set of two
external prisms. In a second preferred embodiment the laser is operated broad band and
the 157.6 nm line is selected external to the resonance cavity. In a third preferred
embodiment a line width of 0.2 pm is provided using injection seeding. Another
embodiment utilizes a grating for line selection and increases the tuning range by
operating the laser at a pressure in excess of 4 atmospheres.

Abstract: There is disclosed a security printing system involving the use of
thermochromic inks printed on an article such as a lottery ticket or
pre-paid telephone card having an amount of credit thereon for use
in a mobile telecommunications network. Two layers of
thermochromic ink are applied to the article each having a different
and sufficiently separate activation temperatures at which a certain
characteristic of the ink changes, for example its colour, opacity,
transparency or translucency. The first applied layer, in the shape of
a validation mark or the like, ideally has an activation temperature
higher than the second layer applied thereover, so that two separate
tests can be performed on the article. A first test is the application
of heat to the mark by a human finger or the like whereupon the
second layer becomes ideally transparent to revel the validation
mark. The second test is the application of more heat, for example
by a hairdryer or other dedicated heating apparatus, whereupon a
particular characteristic of the first ink changes.

Abstract: A digital broadcast transmitter and receiver for car users, in which a user can obtain
information stably that the user desires to obtain in a situation of changing time, place,
and contents whilst driving a car, by using a broadcast network, not using a high price
communication network, is provided. At the digital broadcast transmitter and receiver,
a repetition type program broadcasting equipment broadcasts programs repeatedly, and
an integrity inspector receives the broadcast programs from the repetition type program
broadcasting equipment one by one, and when the integrity inspector receives one of the
broadcast programs completely, the integrity inspector outputs the received program to
a program adder. The program adder compares information of the received program
with stored information in a desired information storage in which type information the
user desires to obtain is stored, in time storage storing the present time, and in place
storage storing the present position. When the comparison result matches, the received
program is stored in the program storage. A program selector selects a program that has
the least playback times from the program storage. A program playback unit plays back
the selected broadcast program. A program deleting unit periodically takes out the
broadcast programs stored in the broadcast program storage one by one, and compares
the information in the taken out broadcast program with stored information in the
desired information storage, in the time storage, in the place storage. When the comparison
result does not match, the taken out broadcast program is discarded.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for magnet-optical recording are
provided that can reduce heat in pulse driving of a magnetic head
coil of a magnet-optical recording apparatus. Data inversion
detection means 41-44 generate a signal TRDET that becomes
the high level when a magnetic inversion of data occurs and
becomes the low level when no magnetic inversion of data occurs.
Means for reducing an exciting energy 45-47 use this signal
TRDET so as to generate a strobe signal STRB that has a short
period of the high level when a magnetic inversion of data
occurs and a normal period of the high level when no magnetic
inversion of data occurs. The magnetic head coil is excited
during a period in which the strobe signal STRB is the high level,
so that the pulsed magnetic field is generated, which is applied
to a magnet-optical recording medium.

Abstract: An apparatus and method employing a syringe (20) mounted splittable
needle (10) insertable through body tissue to provide a percutaneous passage
through the body tissue and into a cavity such as a trachea. After insertion
of the needle (10), the syringe (20) is separated from the needle (10) and a
dilator (22) is fitted in its place. The distal extremity of the dilator (22)
includes a leader (24) which extends through the needle (10) and into the
trachea. The midportion of the dilator (22) supports the distal extremity of
a flexible, ultra thin trachea tube (30). The tube (30) is large enough in
diameter that it can be fitted over the distal end of the dilator (22) and moved
in a proximal direction toward the dilator (22) midportion. Further
movement onto the dilator (22) is prevented by engagement of a smaller
diameter distal extremity of the tube (30) with a larger diameter stop section
located on the dilator (22) midportion adjacent its distal extremity. The
needle (10) is split to allow separation of the needle (10) from the dilator (22)
and tube (30), followed by thrusting of the dilator (22) and tube (30) farther
into the trachea. The dilator (22) is then withdrawn to leave the tube (30) in
position within the trachea for ventilation of the trachea upper airway. An
annular inflatable cuff (26) is affixed to the trachea tube (30) for occluding
the space between the trachea tube (30) and the inner tracheal wall, and for
providing additional stiffness at the distal end of the trachea tube (30).
