Abstract: In an information recording medium (1) from which information recorded on each pit is reproduced by an optical detection system (3) that obtains a reproduced signal corresponding to each pit by scanning the information recording medium along pit rows by a light beam, data of high recording density can be accurately reproduced by a simple arrangement by shifting in a step-wise fashion edge positions of an information pit from a predetermined reference position in response to digital information to be recorded within a range corresponding to a predetermined shift period smaller than a transition period of a reproduced signal determineed in response to the given or inherent transfer characteristic of the optical detection system (3). The information reproducing apparatus comprises clock generating means (7), lower detection means and judging means. Therefore, a nonlinear intersymbol interference can be reduced without enphasizing a noise component.

Abstract: When a scan line is interpolated, pixels on scan lines above and below the scan line which are referenced is interpolated in the horizontal direction. These pixels on the upper and lower scan lines are divided into blocks. Correlations between the upper and lower blocks with respect to a target pixel to be interpolated are calculated. Based on an evaluating function which is formed based on the correlations but is corrected with reference to the distance (or the direction) from the target pixel to each of the blocks, an optimal interpolating direction is selected. In addition, the difference in the pixel data between the interpolated pixel and each of the pixels around the interpolated pixel is checked in order to find interpolation errors. When an interpolating pixel data is determined to be erroneous, the pixel is interpolated using the pixels of data above and below the pixel.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for forming a high quality epitaxial compound semiconductor layer of indium gallium nitride In x Ga 1-x N (where, 0<x<1) on a substrate (1). 
     A first gas including indium trichloride (InCl 3 ) and a second gas including ammonia (NH 3 ) are introduced into a reaction chamber (56) heated at a first temperature and indium nitride (InN) is grown epitaxially on the substrate (1) by nitrogen (N 2 ) carrier gas to form an InN buffer layer. 
     Thereafter, a third gas including hydrogen chloride (HCl) and gallium (Ga) is introduced with the first and second gasses into the chamber (56) heated at a second temperature higher than the first temperature and an epitaxial In x Ga 1-x N layer is grown on the buffer layer by N 2  gas. 
     By using helium (He), instead of N 2 , as carrier gas, the In x Ga 1-x N layer with more homogeneous quality is obtained. In addition, the InN buffer layer is allowed to be modified into a GaN buffer layer.

Abstract: A laser diode package having an optical power monitoring function includes a monitor diode (12) for monitoring an optical power of the light emitted from a laser diode (11). In the laser diode package, an optical member (15) has a projection window for advancing the light emitted from the laser diode (11) to a desired direction and a reflection surface (17) from which the light emitted from the laser diode (11) is reflected. The monitor diode (12) receives the light reflected from the reflection surface of the optical member in order to monitor an optical power of the light emitted from the laser diode (11). A slot (20) is installed on an area except for an optical path which is formed by the light projected via the projection window of the optical member, for shielding ambient light. Thus, the laser diode package having an optical power monitoring function prevents a mis-operation of the monitor diode (12) due to the ambient light.

Abstract: A display device comprises a screen. A back plate is sealed to the
screen to form an evacuated chamber. Area cathode means is disposed
between the back plate and the screen. A permanent magnet is disposed
between the cathode and the screen. A two dimensional array of rows and
columns of channels extends between opposite poles of the magnet for
receiving electrons from the cathode means. An anode phosphor layer is
disposed between screen and the magnet for receiving electrons from the
channels. Grid electrode means between the area cathode means and the
magnet controls flow of electrons from the cathode means into the
channels. Anode means between the magnet and the anode phosphor layer
controls flow of electrons from the channels towards the screen. In one
such arrangement, the screen comprises a layer of a plastic material. In
another such arrangement a plurality of spacers are disposed between the
screen and the magnet. Each spacer has an elongate body having a larger
cross sectional area at one end of the spacer tapering to a smaller cross
sectional area at the other end of the spacer. In another such
arrangement, and a plurality of spacers are disposed between the magnet
and cathode. The spacers are located in recesses formed in the grid
electrode means. In yet another such arrangement, the cathode means
comprises a back-plate and a silica glass substrate peripherally sealed
to the back-plate to produce a chamber. A gas is contained in the
chamber. A layer of photo-sensitive material is disposed on the surface
of the substrate external to the chamber. A cathode phosphor layer is
disposed between the back plate and the substrate. A pair of electrodes
facing each other from opposite sides of the chamber energises the gas to
generate a plasma for exciting the phosphor to generate light energy to
produce electron emissions from the photo-cathode.

Abstract: A method for mitigating or eliminating a halo effect in a printer when black objects are
adjacent color objects is described herein. In a full color xerographic printer, particularly an image on
image printer in which full color composite images are imaged and developed in a single pass
through the xerographic system, an image processing method is described to reduce or eliminate the
halo effect. When a black object is to be placed adjacent a colored object (e.g. black text on a
magenta background) a determination is made to locate the boundary between the black and the
colorant. The black pixels immediately adjacent the colored objects are created using process black
(a combination of cyan, magenta and yellow colorants) while the central and other black areas not
adjacent a colored object are created using black toner only. Various half bitting approaches are
used to balance the trade off between edge sharpness and elimination of halo effect.

Abstract: The method involves oversampling a received signal and producing a number of complex digital samples (Sk,i). Data are processed using the complex conjugate of the present and the previous sample to form a product. A weighted coefficient sum (P(k-1)) is then formed over a period of time for a set of samples. The real part of the sum is output (V(k-1)) to produce a decision sample which allows restoration of information in a range k. The process discriminates between trajectory paths of information.
