Abstract: A method of streamlining and lowering the cost of operation of ion chromatography as well as improving detection limits is disclosed. The apparatus includes chromatographic separating means (10) through which a sample is eluted in an eluent solution including an electrolyte. The apparatus includes a sandwich suppressor (11) having a chromatography effluent compartment separated from a detector effluent compartment by an ion exchange membrane (17,32,34,36), forming a chromatography effluent flow channel and a detector effluent channel, respectively. Electrode means (42,44) are disposed in communication with both flow channels for passing an electric current transverse to the solution that is passing through them. The chromatography effluent flows through the chromatography effluent flow channel of the suppressor and through detector (12) which detects resolved ionic species therein. The effluent from the detector is then recycled through the detector effluent flow channel and forms a sump for electrolyte ions passing across the chromatography effluent as well as supplying the water for the electrolysis reaction generating acid (or base) for suppression.

Abstract: Misfiring of individual cylinders in an internal combustion engine is detected based on simultaneous use of two different methods of misfire detection which examine different combustion-related parameters of engine operation, such as crankshaft acceleration and exhaust gas pressure. A complementary detector (57) produces a final misfire determination based on the simultaneously obtained misfire determinations in order to provide greater coverage of the speed-load range of the engine and to provide increased confidence and accuracy in calling misfires in the portion of the speed-load range where both misfire methods are presumed to function.

Abstract: A hybrid compiler-interpreter comprising a compiler for "compiling" source program code, and an interpreter for interpreting the "compiled" code, is provided to a computer system. The compiler comprises a code generator that generates code in intermediate form with data references made on a symbolic basis. The interpreter comprises a main interpretation routine, and two data reference handling routines, a dynamic field reference routine for handling symbolic references, and a static field reference routine for handling numeric references. The dynamic field reference routine, when invoked, resolves a symbolic reference and rewrites the symbolic reference into a numeric reference. After rewriting, the dynamic field reference routine returns to the main interpretation routine without advancing program execution to the next instruction, thereby allowing the rewritten instruction with numeric reference to be reexecuted. The static field reference routine, when invoked, obtain data for the program from a data object based on the numeric reference. After obtaining data, the static field reference routine advances program execution to the next instruction before returning to the interpretation routine. The main interpretation routine selectively invokes the two data reference handling routines depending on whether the data reference in an instruction is a symbolic or a numeric reference.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a unique method for fabricating a silicon based MOS transistor having an inverse-T refractory metal gate structure. The gate fabricated according to this invention comprises a main CVD tungsten portion and a lower sputtered tungsten portion outwardly extending from the bottom of the CVD portion such that a cross section of the gate appears as an inverted "T". 
     A Cl₂/O₂ plasma etch is used to etch the CVD tungsten layer (14A) and a chemical etch is used to etch the sputtered tungsten layer (16) to form the gate electrode. It has been discovered that sputtered tungsten is more resistant to Cl₂/O₂ reactive ion etch than is CVD tungsten. As illustrated in the attached drawing, the sputtered tungsten layer acts as a shield to protect the underlying gate oxide layer (10) from ion damage throughout the fabrication process.

Abstract: Method and device for monitoring of a moving web, such as a wire (10) in a paper machine, a felt, or a material web (W), such as a board or paper web. A radiation bar (L) is directed at the face of the web (10;W) to be monitored by means of a series of transmitters (20₁...20 N ), which radiation bar is transverse to the direction of movement (v) of the web (10;W). Radiation reflected from the web (10;W) and from the background is detected by means of a series of receivers (30₁...30 M ). The measurement signals obtained in this way are passed to an electronic unit (40), in which a quantity that characterizes the monitoring of the web is detected from said measurement signals. The approximate location of the edge (10a), the edges (10a,10b), or of corresponding discontinuities of the web (10;W) to be monitored is detected "digitally" on the basis of the radiation beam (L n ) of the radiation transmitter (20 n ) in whose area the greatest change takes place in the received radiation. The precise location of the edge or equivalent of the web (10;W) to be monitored is determined analogously by, with one another, comparing the amplitudes of the signals of the adjacent receivers (30 n-1 ,30 n ) placed closest to the last-mentioned radiation transmitter (20 n ).
