Abstract: A communication method between a first and second party, in the presence of a trusted party, that enables a transaction in which the second party receives a first value produced by the first party and unpredictable to the second party if and only if the first party receives a second value produced by the second party and unpredictable to the first party. The method includes two basic steps: exchanging a first set of communications between the first and second parties without participation of the trusted party to attempt completion of the transaction, and if the transaction is not completed using the first set of communications between the first and second parties, having the trusted party take action to complete the transaction.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé visant à empêcher la formation d'hydrate de clathrate dans des courants de fluides pétrolifères par adjonction dans les courants de polymères solubles dans l'eau présentant des motifs N-vinylamide ou N-allylamide. Chaque motif N-vinylamide et N-allylamide se compose de deux groupes substituants, R1 et R2, substitués sur l'azote, R1 représentant un groupe hydrogène ou hydrocarboné de 1 à 6 atomes de carbone et de 0 à 2 hétéroatomes sélectionnés dans le groupe comprenant l'oxygène, l'azote et des combinaisons des deux, et R2 représentant un groupe hydrocarboné de 1 à 6 atomes de carbone et de 0 à 2 hétéroatomes sélectionnés dans le groupe comprenant l'oxygène, l'azote et des combinaisons des deux, la somme globale des atomes de carbone contenus dans R1 et R2 étant supérieure ou égale à 1, mais inférieure à 8. Parmi les polymères préférés, on mentionne notamment des copolymères de N-vinylamide et des acrylamides substitués. Parmi ces copolymères, on mentionne par exemple un N-méthyl-N-vinylacétamide (VIMA) copolymérisé avec de l'acrylylpyrrolidine (APYD) ou de l'acrylylpipéridine (APID), et, plus particulièrement, le VIMA copolymérisé avec des méthacrylamides N-substitués, tels que le N-isopropylméthacrylamide (iPMAM) et la méthacrylylpyrrolidine (MAPYD).

Date Jul. 3, 1997The invention relates to a process for intensifying the surface stabilization of soil susceptible to erosion by introduction of water-based adhesion-promoting impregnating compounds based on esters of polyvinyl alcohol with C1-5 monocarboxylic acids and mixtures thereof with higher monocarboxylic acids (binders) using surface-active and biologiclly compatible wetting agents. The process is characterized in that impregnation of the soil is carried out in several stages and in that an aqueous preparation containing the wetting agents is used at least in the first impregnating stage. Binder is preferably used in a comparatively small quantity in this pre-impregnation stage.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de formation de structure matricielle tridimensionnelle multi-niveau électroconductrice pour afficheur à écran plat. Selon une réalisation, la présente invention consiste à former une première série de structures de séparation de pixels sur toute la surface de la dalle de verre d'un afficheur à écran plat. Ces premières structures de séparation de pixels séparent des premières régions adjacentes de sous-pixels. Selon cette réalisation, on forme les premières structures de séparation de pixels en appliquant sur toute la surface de la dalle de verre un matériau photosensible. On enlève ensuite des parties de la première couche de matériau photosensible de façon à laisser des régions de la première couche de matériau photosensible recouvrant les premières régions correspondantes de sous-pixels. On applique ensuite sur la surface de la dalle de verre une première couche de matériau électroconducteur de façon que la première couche de matériau électroconducteur soit disposée entre les régions considérées de la première couche de matériau photosensible. L'invention consiste ensuite à enlever les régions de la première couche de matériau photosensible en abandonnant uniquement les premières structures de séparation de pixels formés sur la première couche de matériau électroconducteur, et disposées entre les premières régions de sous-pixels. On répète ensuite le processus pour former des deuxièmes structures de séparation de pixels entre les deuxièmes régions de sous-pixels. Les deuxièmes structures de séparation de pixels sont orientées sensiblement en angle droit par rapport aux premières structures de séparation des pixels. En outre, ces deuxièmes structures de séparation de pixels sont d'une hauteur différente des premières structures de séparation de pixels. Grâce à ce procédé, il est possible de former une structure matricielle tridimensionnelle multi-niveau électroconductrice.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for removing doped silicon dioxide from a structure selectively to undoped silicon dioxide. A structure having both doped and undoped silicon dioxide regions is exposed to a high density plasma etch having a fluorinated etch chemistry. Doped silicon dioxide is preferably removed thereby at a rate 10 times or more greater than that of undoped silicon dioxide. The etch is conducted in a chamber having an upper electrode to which a source power is applied and a lower electrode to which a bias power is applied sufficient to generate a power density on a surface of the structure such that the source power density is in a range less than or equal to about 1000 W per 200-mm diameter wafer surface. The high density plasma etch has an ion density not less than about 10<9> ions/cm<3>. A variety of structures are formed with the etch process, including self-aligned contacts to a semiconductor substrate.

Abstract: The mass of urea in a fluid volume is calculated by performing mass exchange between the fluid volume and an exchange fluid flow. The concentration of the urea is repeatedly measured in the exchange fluid flow after the mass exchange to obtain a concentration curve. An approximation curve is fitted to at least a portion of the concentration curve. The logarithm of the approximation curve is a straight line whose slope is used to calculate the urea concentration.
