Abstract: A method of providing a metal preform having a semi-sold metal structure includes the step of determining a temperature profile for the metal to be converted to establish a temperature range indicative of a partially solid and partially liquid state of the metal. With this temperature profile, a metal preform is heated at a controlled rate from a temperature below the temperature range to a temperature within the range defined by the temperature profile to achieve a select percent by volume of liquid in the metal. This controlled heating to a desired temperature, which may be at a uniform rate, followed by holding at the desired temperature, thermally converts a dendritic structure of the material into a globular structure. The thermally converted metal preform is then recovered for subsequent use such as shaping into a desired article.

(VCC) is greater than the predetermined level, wherein when the second
multiplying element (6) is enabled the first (5) and second (6) multiplying
elements multiply the input voltage signal (VCC) to provide the output
voltage signal (VOUT) and when the second multiplying element is disabled
the first multiplying element multiplies the input voltage signal (VCC) to
provide the output voltage signal (VOUT).

Abstract: An electrostatic probe device detects signals displayed on a cathode ray tube in a non-invasive manner. Specifically, the probe device includes a probe that is spaced from a fluorescent screen of a cathode ray tube by a dielectric material and a detection circuit coupled to probe. The detection circuit produces an output signal that corresponds to an input video signal supplied to the cathode ray tube. In a preferred embodiment, the probe is located directly on a face plate of the cathode ray tube, wherein the face plate acts as the dielectric material. Voltage fluctuations detected by the probe are equalized by the detection circuit. The detection circuit may also include amplification and inverter circuits, so that the output of the detection circuit can be supplied to a monitor for viewing. The image displayed on the monitor directly corresponds to the image displayed on the cathode ray tube.

Said scrap is produced during the manufacture of nickel/metal hydride batteries, or consists of used nickel/metal hydride batteries, and contains one or more alloys that react to form hydrides. The method comprises (a) a spraying step carried out in a surfactant aqueous medium under conditions that cause detexturing and dispersion of the suspension; (b) a suspension sedimentation step for separating out the solid phase; (c) a series of cycles that each comprise stirring the solid phase in the presence of water and a surfactant, in particular while exposing it to ultrasonic vibration, followed by sedimentation; and (d) a final step of washing and drying the particulate solid phase resulting from the cycles in (c). Substantially intact alloys that react to form hydrides and can be recycled directly in the manufacture of batteries may thus be recovered.

Abstract: A method for fabricating an HBT in which the subcollector-base junction, which contributes to the base-collector capacitance of the device, is reduced by using a selective subcollector. In particular, subcollector areas of the device that do not contribute to collector resistance reduction are eliminated, thereby reducing the subcollector area, which, in turn, reduces the base-collector capacitance. As such, the maximum power-gain frequency f max  is increased.
