Abstract: A method and apparatus for enhanced doping of IIB-VIA semiconductors through the use of a free-radical source (30) is described. The process involves the simultaneous production of beams of free-radicals together with group IIB molecules or atoms and group VIA molecules or atoms in a standard molecular beam epitaxy crystal growth system (10). These beams react on a substrate (14) producing single crystal films of doped IIB-VIA semiconductors such as ZnSe:N, for example. The improved doping characteristics result from the high reactivity of radicals produced by the free-radical source (30) with the surface of the growing crystal.

Abstract: A ball bearing assembly (12A) has a spacer (14) to prevent ball bearing failures. The spacer (14) has a ring (22) with a tongue (34) that fits into a groove (36) in a second spacer ring (28). One spacer ring (22) is coupled to the outer ring (16A) of the ball bearing assembly (12A) and the other spacer ring (28) is coupled to the inner ring (18A) of the ball bearing assembly (12A). The spacer (14) therefore allows relative rotation of the rings (16A,18A) of the ball bearing assembly (12A) but prevents relative translation of the rings (16A,18A) beyond a point which will damage the ball bearing assembly (12A).

Abstract: A scanning monochromator uses a pulse-driven micro-stepping motor (20) to drive a spectral-dispersion element (33) via a reduction-gear harmonic drive (21). The motor (20) is directly coupled to the input hub of the reduction-gear drive (21), and the output hub of the reduction-gear drive directly supports the spectral-dispersion element (33). By selecting a motor (20) with a great number of steps per revolution, and a harmonic drive (21) with a great reduction ratio, a resolution of 5 million pulsed steps is available, per single rotation of the output hub of the reduction-gear drive. This translates into more than 600,000 incremental angular-displacement steps over a usable 45° range of dispersion-element rotation.

Abstract: An image signal processing apparatus for processing image signals reads a binarized image (21) signal stored in a memory (32) in accordance with the timing (36) of inputting an input image signal (1), and superimposes the read, binarized image signal upon the input image signal, to thereby correctly superimpose the binarized image signal upon the input image signal. 
     The method of superimposing includes a so-called scroll-in scroll-out method, which gradually displays the superimposed binarized image on the display screen by shifting the timing of the readout of the binarized image from the memory (32).

Abstract: Novel propargyl esters are prepared by a base catalyzed condensation reaction of propargyl esters of carboxylic acids containing a labile hydrogen atom at the alpha position relative to the carboxy group and a terminal aromatic hydrocarbon radical that is linked to the carboxy group through a sequence of carbon atoms containing at least one carbon-to-carbon double bond. If more than one of these double bonds are present they form a conjugated sequence. Novel organosilicon compounds are prepared by reacting these propargyl esters with an organohydrogensilane or an organohydrogensiloxane. The organosilicon compounds undergo a reversible crosslinking reaction in the presence of ultraviolet light.

Abstract: The nonvolatile semiconductor memory uses a single floating gate transistor, wherein a control gate electrode (8) is negatively biased while a source region (2) is positively biased, and a writing operation is performed bit by bit by transferring electrons from the floating gate (5) into the source region through Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. And an erasing operation is performed by injecting channel hot electrons from the drain region (3) into the floating gate, or by injecting electrons from a substrate into the floating gate through Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The source region is connected to an individual bit line, and the drain region to a common line so that over-erasing is averted.

Abstract: A contact lens for correcting astigmatism. The front surface has a central optical zone and an outer carrier having two points of maximum thickness located at an oblique angle of about 110° to 130° as measured from the vertical axis of the lens. The anterior surface of the lens is symmetrical about its vertical axis. The carrier tapers from the points of maximum thickness to thin portions at the top and bottom of the lens. 
     The rear surface of the lens has an outer spherical base curve zone, an inner toric zone, and an intermediate transition zone having thickness that gradually increase from the base curve zone to the toric zone. By making the radius of the base curve zone substantially equal to that of the toric zone's major meridian, a thinner, more comfortable lens is obtained.

Abstract: Device for the flow measurement of a liquid which is flowing through a measuring tube which is arranged essentially horizontally and which liquid contains freely displaceable electrical charges. The device has a magnet arrangement for generating at least two magnetic field states, which penetrate the measuring tube and extend essentially mirror-symmetrically to a vertical plane containing the axis of the measuring tube, of which states the first penetrates a horizontal plane intersecting the measuring tube and having a course in the same direction essentially on both sides of the horizontal plane, and of which states the second, having an essentially opposing course on both sides of the horizontal plane, is zero in at least one point lying on the vertical plane and the horizontal plane. The device has a single pair of electrodes, fitted to the measuring tube on both sides of the vertical plane, for detecting charge displacements in the liquid, and has a circuit arrangement which corrects the voltage which is produced between the electrodes in the first magnetic field state and is predominantly only approximately proportional to the flow of the liquid, by means of the voltage produced between the electrodes in the second magnetic field state, to form an output signal essentially proportional to the flow of the liquid. The device is characterised in that the electrodes are located in a second horizontal plane which is offset from the first-named horizontal plane in such a manner that a unique relationship is produced between the voltages, on the one hand, and the flow of the liquid, on the other hand, the said relationship being a function of the flow of the liquid but not of the flow profile of the liquid.

Abstract: A method for forming, and an arrangement for using arbitrary angle mirrors in substrates is disclosed. An erodible material, such as a photoresist, is applied to a substrate at a site and is exposed to radiation at that site which has a linear variation in energy at the surface of the erodible material. Due to this variation in exposure energy, a taper results in the erodible material after development. The tapered region is then etched in a manner which etches both the erodible layer and the underlying substrate. The taper in the erodible layer provides a varying attenuation during the etching process such that the taper of the erodible layer, or a multiple of it, is transferred to the substrate. In a first embodiment, a tapered reflective surface is formed in a substrate, which surface engages an optical signal and deflects it to an optical device or another surface. In a second embodiment, two tapered reflective surfaces are formed in a substrate and oriented to deflect incident light to a modulation device. In a third embodiment, an arrangement for modulating a light signal is formed by two tapered reflective surfaces. The surfaces are oriented to form a vee groove in a substrate and are coated with an active semiconductor device.
