IPC: G11B7/254
Filed: 1996-03-28
Abstract: An optical recording medium having each of a land and a groove and comprises at least a recording layer, dielectric layers and reflection layer. Recording and erasing of data can be carried out on both land and groove by a phase change between amorphous and crystalline states. The mirror portion may have reflectance characteristics selected from at least one of a reflectance of 15% to 35%, when in a crystalline state, and 10% or less, when in an amorphous state. 
     Alternatively, additionally, the depth of the groove may be such as form an optical path length equal to 1/7 to 1/5 of the wavelength of the reproducing light and the photo-absorptance of the recording layer in the amorphous phase and the photo-absorptance in the crystalline phase may satisfy the following formula,       Aa - Ac ≦ 10           
    where Aa is the photo-absorptance (%) of the recording layer in the amorphous phase and Ac is the photo-absorptance (%) of the recording layer in the crystalline phase. 
     In an optical recording method, an edge type recording system is provided on an optical recording medium in which recording and erasing are effected by a phase change between amorphous and crystalline states. Recorded marks are provided by pulse trains each comprising a number of recording power pulses and, additionally, a power pulse, after the last of the recording power pulses, of a power less than a erase power and of a duration in a range 1.1 to 6 times the duration of the last recording power pulse.

Title: Intermittent electrolytic membrane suppressor regeneration for ion chromatography
Inventor: RABIN STEVEN B
IPC: G01N30/02
Filed: 1996-02-29
Abstract: A method and apparatus using suppression of eluents for the analysis of anions or cations in ion chromatography. The invention relates to the intermittent use of the electric field during electrochemical suppression to minimize background noise during detection of the ionic species caused by the application of an electric field using an electrolytic membrane suppressor. Using this intermittent electrochemical suppression system allows the detection of the analyte in the absence of the electric field. The system finds particular benefit in reducing background noise created during electrochemical suppression, and in reducing the baseline interference when analyzing organic solvent-containing samples.

Abstract: A method and system for retrieving pages from a remote location. In
one embodiment, pager users can access their pagers from a remote location, via a
public switched telephone network, to retrieve messages (i.e. numeric, alphanumeric
and voice messages) and/or perform any other pager operation by engaging in an
interactive wireless dialogue with the pager via a public switched telephone network
and the paging system, wherein the pager uses digital voice encoding techniques to
provide verbal feedback to the remote user. The remote can dial the number of the
individual pager from a remote location and enter a preprogrammed command
sequence to initiate wireless dialogue with the pager. Once the wireless dialogue is
initiated, the remote user can enter other pre- programmed commands to control the
operation of the pager from the remote location (e.g. to retrieve messages sent to the
pager). The pre-programmed commands can be part of a command set such as a
DTMF command set.
