Abstract: Disclosed is an ion sensor whose electrode (1) is covered with a water-repelling organic chemically adsorbed film (2), which is formed with at least one hole (4) permitting the passage of ions but preventing the passage of biopolymers, (eg proteins in blood) thereby allowing accurate measurement of ion concentrations over a long period. In forming the silane-based chemically adsorbed monomolecular film (2) on the surface of the electrode, a hole dozens of angstroms in diameter is formed on an organic thin film by physically adsorbing the mask compound (3) and then washing it away. The sensor can also be used in a solution containing numerous impurities, and for monitoring ion activities in vivo by implanting it in the body.

Abstract: An optical interference filter produced on a vitreous, light transmissive substrate, such as an electric lamp envelope, includes a plurality of alternating layers of tantala and silica in which each tantala layer includes titania in an amount of less than about 10 mole % whereby the microstructure of the tantala layers is controlled during subsequent crystallization and extrinsic stress (cracking, peeling) in the tantala layers is reduced. Rather than or in addition to including titania in each tantala layer, the present invention additionally contemplates placing at least some of the tantala layers in contact with a titania layer (pre-layer and/or post-layer) whereby the microstructure of the tantala layers is controlled during subsequent crystallization and extrinsic stress in the tantala layers is reduced. The optical interference filters are produced by a process comprising depositing a plurality of alternating layers of tantala and silica on a glas substrate from respective precursors thereof by CVD, preferably LPCVD, to form a coated substrate. The filter may then be heated for a time and to a temperature effective to crystallize the tantala, preferably to a temperature ranging from about 550 to about 800°C and holding same within that temperature range for at least about one hour.

Abstract: An engine ignition and control system for an internal combustion engine. The system includes an ignition transformer mounted directly to a spark plug and adapted to rapidly re-fire the spark plug during a combustion cycle enabling e.g. multispark ignition during adverse engine operating conditions and here the performance of various ignition diagnostic procedures. A controller provides signals to a circuit which causes charging of the transformer for ignition and subsequent charging of the transformer for diagnostic purposes. The system also includes a diagnostic circuit, connected to the transformer, which can detect the occurrence of electrical discharges across the spark plug electrodes as a result of the diagnostic charges. The detection circuit either outputs a signal or omits a signal to the controller which allows the controller to diagnose conditions within the combustion cylinder such as misfire, autoignition or preignition. Additionally, the diagnostic circuit is capable of outputting a signal which can be correlated to the load on the engine.

Abstract: One preferred method for making a semiconductor structure includes altering the direction, and optionally the position, of a polycrystalline grain boundary (38) in a base layer (17,21) of an epitaxial base bipolar transistor (10). Altering the grain boundary (38) may be accomplished by annealing the semiconductor structure after the layer, which later forms the lower portion of the base (17), has been deposited. Altering the grain boundary (38) has a significant effect in reducing base resistance (R bx1 , R bx2 ). Reduced base resistance (R bX1 , R bx2 ) dramatically improves device performance.

Abstract: To lay a sliver automatically at the feed of a textile machine, eg drawing unit, spinner, knitter, the end of the sliver is brought to a defined holding position to be taken as the start of the sliver for transfer to the feed machanism. The end of the sliver is first brought to a ready position before moving to the holding position. The ready or holding positions can be at the supply can in the centre or at its circumference. The sliver end in the can or extending downwards has a min length of 100 mm and a max length of 200 mm. When the can is being filled, the last section of sliver is taken as the start and placed in a ready position so that it is correctly placed when the can is moved into the holding position for the required feed unit. The sliver movement into the can, on filling, is ended after the can has been moved clear of the filling station to be laid at the trailing side of the can to be secured in place during the can movement to the textile machine. The can is not allowed to rotate until it is at the holding position. At the ready and/or holding positions, the start of the sliver is laid on a defined path in a preset length to be clamped near the start end while the sliver has axial movement at the trailing end of the path. The sliver is positioned above the textile machine feed from the can in the holding position, and clear of any other slivers. The start of the sliver is prepd and is given a partic starting length while any section which varies from nominal thickness is severed, or the length is achieved by drawing the sliver apart.

Abstract: A device and method for detecting a toner image density accurately while using a characteristic curve found at the time of initialization. In the initialization, light of a first amount for low density is irradiated onto a photoreceptor (10) from a density sensor (24), to acquire a first low-density light amount characteristic curve. In the characteristic curve, a toner image density corresponding to first density data is taken as a first reference density. A first amount of light for high density is then set, to acquire high-density light amount characteristic curve. In the characteristic curve, density data corresponding to the first reference density is taken as first correcting reference data. In density detection, a second amount of light for low density and a second amount of light for high density are found. A second low-density light amount characteristic curve corresponding to the second amount for low density is acquired. The density of a toner image having the second reference density approximately equal to the first reference density is detected by the density sensor (24) irradiating light of the second amount for high density. The density data outputted by the density sensor (24) is taken as second correcting reference data. If the second amount for high density is set, the density data outputted by the density sensor (24) is corrected on the basis of the first and second correcting reference density data.
