Abstract: Packet-based central conference bridges,
packet-based network interfaces and packet-based
terminals are used for voice communications over a
packet-based network. Modifications to these
apparatuses can reduce the latency and the signal
processing requirements while increasing the signal
quality within a voice conference as well as point-to-point
communications. For instance, by selecting the
talkers prior to the decompression of the voice
signals, decreases in the latency and increases in
signal quality within the voice conference can result
due to a possible removal of the decompression and
subsequent compression operations in a conference
bridge unnecessary in some circumstances. Further, the
removal of the jitter buffers within the conference
bridges and the moving of the mixing operation to the
individual terminals and/or network interfaces are
modifications that can cause lower latency and
transcoding within the voice conference.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor structure, having a substrate and a gate region thereon, is described that includes removing an anti-reflective coating (ARC) layer over the gate region to improve salicidation of the gate. An anti-reflective coating is formed over the gate region and then a dielectric layer is formed over the anti-reflective coating layer and the substrate. Dielectric spacers are then formed on the substrate, adjacent the gate region and the anti-reflective coating layer, by etching the dielectric layer using a first process that includes selectively removing portions of the dielectric layer on the anti-reflective coating. Utilizing a second, different etching process, the anti-reflective coating over the gate region is selectively removed while preserving the spacers adjacent the gate region. Use of the present invention helps to minimize the dielectric spacer loss along side the gate region during removal of the buried anti-reflective coating, thereby providing a protection to the gate edge during the salicidation.

The photoconductor densities are subtracted from the combined densities to provide measured toner densities, which are then averaged for each step area. The average measured toner densities or voltage readings are compared to the aim toner densities or voltage readings for each step in the step tablet to quantitatively assess the image quality of the image-forming process. Preferably, every image frame on the photoconductor is assessed successively.

Abstract: To reduce the size of a polarizing device used for a polarized light illuminator, to cut
the costs of the polarizing device and to reduce the size of the entire polarized light
illuminator, light from a lamp which is incident on a polarizing device, is subjected to
polarization separation, and is then incident on an integrator lens. The polarized light
emerging from the integrator lens is converted into parallel light via a shutter and a second
planar mirror by means of a collimator and is emitted onto a workpiece. As the polarizing
element, a polarizing element formed by a combination of several polarized light beam
splitters is used, and it is arranged such that the shadow is projected by the boundary surfaces
of the polarized light beam splitters onto the boundary lines of the lenses which form the
integrator lens. In this way, the reduction in illuminance and the deterioration of the
distribution of the illuminance on the irradiation surface can be prevented. Furthermore, the
polarizing device can be placed on the outlet side of the integrator lens and the boundary
surfaces of the polarized light beam splitters can be placed in the areas in which the
illuminance is reduced by the shadow of the light which strikes the boundary surfaces of the
individual lenses of the integrator lens.
