Title: Method for modifying the impedance of semiconductor devices using a focused heating source
IPC: H01C17/26
Filed: 2002-08-14
Abstract: A method is provided for tuning (i.e. modifying, changing) the impedance of semiconductor components or devices using a focused heating source. The method may be exploited for finely tuning the impedance of semiconductor components or devices, by modifying the dopant profile of a region of low dopant concentration (i.e. increasing the dopant concentration) by diffusion of dopants from adjacent regions of higher dopant concentration through the melting action of a focused heating source, for example a laser. The present invention is in particular directed to the use of lasers in relation to circuits for the creation of conductive links and pathways where none existed before. The present invention more particularly relates to a means wherein impedance modification (i.e. trimming or tuning) may advantageously be carried out as a function of the location of one or more conductive bridge(s) along the length of a gap region.

Title: Aluminum frame hanger for axle/suspension systems
Inventor: RAMSEY JOHN E
IPC: B60G7/02
Filed: 2001-03-21
Abstract: A frame hanger for suspending an axle/suspension system from an aluminum vehicle frame also is formed of aluminum. The hanger is directly attached to the other components of the frame by welds. The hanger is an integral structure that successfully reacts loads encountered by the axle/suspension system during operation of the vehicle, and which are transmitted into the other components of the vehicle frame through the hangers. The hanger reacts such loads and especially side or lateral loads, despite being formed from the lightweight metal aluminum, and together with the other components of the vehicle frame is free of add-on support structures such as gussets or the like. The aluminum hanger achieves such efficient load reacting capabilities due to its structural design which substantially completely and continuously surrounds and laterally supports its respective beam bushing assembly of the axle/suspension system suspended from the hanger.
