Abstract: The present invention provides a method and devices for controlling the propagation of Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPPs) using Surface Plasmon Polariton Band Gap (SPPBG) regions. The SPPBG regions are regions of one or more interfaces supporting the propagation of SPPs on which SPPs experience a periodic modulation of the dielectric properties of the media into which its electromagnetic field extend. The frequency range of the band gap is determined by the period of the modulation. SPPBG regions prohibit propagation of SPPs having a frequency within its band gap.By forming transmitting regions in the SPPBG regions the present invention provides ultra-compact SPP waveguides. The present invention can be utilised to form compact integrated SPP/optical circuits. Also, the present invention provides cavities supporting standing SPP-waves for field localisation. Such field localisation can provide very high field intensities and can be used in various sensor applications.The devices of the present invention provide a number of advantages over photonic components since SPPs propagates on 2-dimensional interfaces, and only confinement in the plane of propagation is needed. This allows for a very simple production of the devices according to the present invention.

Abstract: A method is provided for repairing defects in a multilayer coating layered onto a reticle blank used in an extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) system. Using high lateral spatial resolution, energy is deposited in the multilayer coating in the vicinity of the defect. This can be accomplished using a focused electron beam, focused ion beam or a focused electromagnetic radiation. The absorbed energy will cause a structural modification of the film, producing a localized change in the film thickness. The change in film thickness can be controlled with sub-nanometer accuracy by adjusting the energy dose. The lateral spatial resolution of the thickness modification is controlled by the localization of the energy deposition. The film thickness is adjusted locally to correct the perturbation of the reflected field. For example, when the structural modification is a localized film contraction, the repair of a defect consists of flattening a mound or spreading out the sides of a depression.

Abstract: A user terminal ranks a base station depending upon a computed virtual estimate of a characteristic of a received communication signal. Overloaded base stations 2,3,4 in a cellular communications network are moved down in the active sets of mobile terminals 1 by applying an offset to the received pilot power estimates. An overloaded base station will transmit a high offset value to a terminal 1, causing it to be moved down in the active set, thereby discouraging the terminal from requesting access or handover to such base station. The user terminal comprises means for receiving a communication signal from at least one base station and for computing an estimate of a characteristic of the received communication signal, means for receiving a communication signal degradation value associated with said at least one base station, means for comparing the estimate with the degradation value and for computing a virtual estimate from the comparison and means for ranking said base station depending upon the value of the computed virtual estimate.

Abstract: Une bobine de self-antiparasite servant de protection contre les surcharges pour moteurs électriques, de l'art antérieur, est divisée en deux au niveau d'un point de connexion qui, en cas de surcharge, doit être déconnecté. Il faut donc un point de connexion supplémentaire réalisé par brasage. La tension mécanique s'exerçant sur le point de connexion à déconnecter peut, en raison de la précontrainte mécanique trop faible des enroulements de la bobine, souvent ne pas garantir une déconnexion du point de connexion. Dans une protection contre les surcharges selon l'invention, destinée à des moteurs électriques, qui comprend une bobine de self-antiparasite (1) en une seule partie, le point de connexion (15) à déconnecter est au moins un point de connexion (15) d'une barrette (11, 13) et d'un élément de raccordement (5, 6) de la bobine de self-antiparasite (1), ladite barrette (11, 13) exerçant une tension mécanique réglable sur le point de connexion (15), de telle sorte qu'une déconnexion à la température de ramollissement de la brasure du point de connexion (15) est garantie de façon fiable.

Abstract: A processor has an architecture that provides the processing speed advantages of the Harvard architecture, but does not require two separate external memories in order to expand both data memory and program instruction memory. The processor has separate program memory space and data memory space, but provides the capability to map at least a portion of the program memory space to the data memory space. This allows most program instructions that are processed to obtain the speed advantages of simultaneous program instruction and data access. It also allows program memory space and data memory space to be expanded externally to the processor using only one external memory device that includes both program instructions and data. The processor includes a program memory space operable to store program instructions and data, a data memory space operable to store data, and mapping circuitry operable to map at least a portion of the program memory space to the data memory space. The program memory space may be internal to the processor. The processor may further comprise a page register operable to specify a location of the program memory space that is mapped to the data memory space.
