Abstract: In the pattern of a selective growth mask for directly
forming an active layer, open stripes for growing
recombination layers to be inserted into a current blocking
are formed in addition to an open stripe for growing the
active layer. By this mask pattern, the position and band
gap of the recombination layers are controlled. Whereby, at
an arbitrary position in the vicinity of the active layer,
recombination layers having an arbitrary band gap can be
batch formed together with the active layer. Thus, a
semiconductor laser element with an excellent high-temperature
high-output characteristic can be fabricated

Abstract: The configuration of a multi-head gamma camera requires coordination between
tangential and radial motions so that the detectors 22 maintain a desired orientation, either
corner to corner or overlapping. Based on the radial and angular positions of the
detectors, desired tangential positions are determined. The desired tangential positions
are compared with the actual tangential positions, to generate position error signals.
Tangential motion is initiated to reduce the position errors. If the required tangential
motion exceeds the capability of the tangential drive or cannot be achieved, the radial
motion is slowed or stopped.
