Title: Procede de fabrication par contre-implantation d'un dispositif semi-conducteur presentant des poches anti-claquage auto-alignees

Abstract: Le procédé de la présente invention permet de réaliser un dispositif semi-conducteur en mettant en forme une couche enterrée dans un substrat du dispositif semi-conducteur. La conductivité de cette couche est la même que celle du substrat, mais avec un niveau de dopage supérieur. Selon ce procédé, une fois qu'une région de la couche est sélectionnée, des ions à conductivité inverse de celle de la couche sélectionnée sont contre-implantés dans la région pour compenser sensiblement le niveau de dopage de la région. Les régions de la couche jouxtant la région ayant subi la contre-implantation conservent un niveau de dopage supérieur. Pour protéger des contre-implants la région dopée, on a recours à d'autres technique. Une première technique consiste d'abord à doper la couche, puis à réaliser un masque sur la surface du substrat au moyen d'une partie du dispositif semi-conducteur, telle qu'un séparateur connecté à l'électrode de commande une fois que la couche dopée a été réalisée sur le substrat. Une fois que le masque est constitué, la contre-implantation ionique est réalisée alors que le masque protège la région dopée. Une deuxième technique consiste à procéder aussi bien E l'implantation ionique de la région dopée qu'à la contre-implantation une fois que les structures de masquage sont constituées. Mais dans ce cas, l'implantation ionique est une implantation grand angle qui implante des ions sous la structure de masquage. Par contre avec la contre-implantation, l'implantation est perpendiculaire, ce qui fait que les régions en dessous de la structure de masquage sont protégées de toute compensation.

Abstract: Test apparatus for value sheets (e.g. currency notes) comprises optical sensors (18; 118), a path along which the sheet is transported past the sensors, and reference devices (46, 146) carrying reference surfaces (48; 148) having predetermined optical characteristics, for example, for calibration of the optical sensor. Each reference device is rotatable to facilitate rapid movement of the sheet past the optical sensors. The transportation path may be defined by entry and exit guides. Alternatively it may be defined by upper and lower guides (20, 22) of spaced apart wires (24, 32) which do not substantially obscure the surfaces of sheet or the reference surfaces, from the optical sensors. Guide rollers (54, 58, 154, 158) project through spaces between the wires to advance the sheet. An automatic cleaning device is operable to clean the reference surfaces. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Non-sterile liquids such as fresh milk (and milk products) and fresh fruit juices unfortunately provide an excellent growth medium for micro-organisms, whether aerobic or, like many yeasts and bacteria, "facultatively anaerobic" micro-organisms (meaning that in theory they do not need oxygen for their metabolic processes and yet are not actually poisoned by oxygen, and so can exist in its presence). It has been found, however, that in fact such micro-organisms do seem to require oxygen for some part of their metabolic processes - or, at least, that in a virtually oxygen-free environment their growth is significantly inhibited. Thus, the invention proposes controlling the growth of micro-organisms in non-sterile liquids, such as milk and fruit juices, by the use of an oxygen scavenger to remove virtually all the free molecular oxygen from within the container in which the liquid is stored.

Abstract: A label (10) for an electrochemical cell with a condition tester for the cell integrated with the label to form a label/tester composite (11) is disclosed. The label/tester composite has a thermochromic material (12) in thermal contact with an electrically conductive material (40). A substructure containing a cured conductive material and preferably also a thermochromic material is formed on a releasable web and transferred from the releasable web to the inside surface of the heat shrinkable base film. A partition coating (60) may be applied over the transferred conductive material. Preferably, a sheet of paper or plastic film (210) having a large window (220) opening therein for entrapping air is applied over the partition coating and aligned over the heat generating portion of the conductive material. The label/tester composite is applied to the cell housing with the insulating paper or plastic film with the window opening against the cell housing. The tester may be activated by depressing one or two regions on its surface thereby connecting the conductive material to the terminals of the cell, whereupon the conductive material becomes heated causing a change in appearance of the thermochromic material to indicate the condition of the cell.

Abstract: There is disclosed a porous ceramic material suitable for the storage and slow release therefrom of a chemical or chemicals which comprises granules having an inner structure comprising closed cell pores and, covering substantially all of the material comprising the inner structure, a continuous outer skin which is preferably microporous. There is also disclosed a method of preparing a porous granular material containing a chemical or chemicals releasable therefrom which comprises the steps of forming granules of a porous ceramic material having mainly a closed cell porous structure having cells mainly with sizes greater than 10 mu m, placing the granules in an evacuable enclosure, evacuating the enclosure and delivering a stream comprising the chemical to be contained by the franules to load the cellular pores of the granules with the chemical. The pressure differential between the evacuated enclosure and the outside environment may be partially equilibrated through a source of the chemical whereby the chemical is sucked into the enclosure. The source of the chemical may comprise a liquid solution of the chemical in a solvent or the chemical itself in melted form. The porous ceramic material may be formed by establishing a foamed ceramic-forming material from a wet particulate material such as a kandite clay and calcining the foamed material.
