Abstract: A pixel cell has a thin film transistor structure formed on a substrate. A signal conductor is patterned on the thin film transistor structure, and a first patterned layer of a transparent conductive material covers the signal conductor. The first patterned layer provides a pattern employed in etching a channel region of the thin film transistor structure. A dielectric layer is formed over the pixel cell and includes a via hole down to the first patterned layer of the transparent conductive material. A second layer of transparent conductive material extends through the via hole to contact the first patterned layer wherein the second layer is self-aligned to the transistor structure. <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système de signaux routiers comprenant une enceinte tubulaire dotée d'un fond et ouverte à l'extrémité opposée, un couvercle fixé sur l'orifice de l'enceinte et comportant une ouverture, une batterie logée dans l'enceinte, un système de signaux lumineux à émission spontanée pourvu d'un corps lumineux destiné à émettre de la lumière et alimenté par la batterie, et d'un circuit de commande du corps lumineux, et un élément translucide permettant au corps lumineux d'émettre la lumière vers l'extérieur. Cet élément translucide est fixé par son bord périphérique maintenu entre le couvercle et l'enceinte, et est ménagé de façon à faire saillie vers l'extérieur en passant par l'ouverture du couvercle. Ce système de signaux lumineux à émission spontanée est pourvu d'une diode électroluminescente sur laquelle n'est appliquée aucune tension, ce qui lui permet, en vue de détecter la quantité de lumière d'un environnement routier, de générer une force électromotrice à la réception de la lumière incidente. Une diode émettant la lumière signalétique est commandée sur la base d'une force électromotrice par la première diode électroluminescente.

Abstract: The invention relates to a direct conversion receiver (100<I>...100<IV>) for down-converting a received multi-carrier signal comprising at least a first and a second carrier signal at image carrier frequencies to a base band resulting in that the first carrier signal includes an image signal of said second carrier signal. Further, the known direct conversion receiver comprises at least a first and a second digital down-converter unit for separating the first and the second carrier signal from the down-converted multi-carrier signal after digitization. In order to make such receivers less complex and adjust them for fast time varying scenarios it is proposed to provide an error estimating unit (170<I>...170<IV>) to said receivers (100<I>...100<IV>) for calculating a compensating coefficient representing the quota and/or the phase position of the image signal of the second carrier signal being included in the first carrier signal and to remove the undesired image signal in response to said compensating coefficient. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An agricultural chemical active ingredient which is solid at room temperature, may cake into a large lump during storage or transportation after the production, and if it is pulverized after the production or stored for a longer period of time, it is more likely to cake. If such an agricultural chemical active ingredient is put in a drum container, it will cake and will be difficult to take out from the container. Accordingly, it may be packaged in small portions and put in a container, or after being taken out from the container, the lump is crushed by a hammer. Thus, before it is mixed with various agricultural adjuvants and subjected to a pulverization step, its handing is troublesome. <??>By adding a small amount of an inorganic substance composed mainly of silica to a powder of an agricultural chemical active ingredient which is solid at room temperature, caking of the agricultural chemical active ingredient can be prevented, and handling such as formulation, transportation or storage, of the agricultural chemical, can be facilitated.
