Title: Epitaxial facet formation for laser diodes based on III-V material systems
Inventor: CHEN YONG
IPC: H01L33/14
Filed: 1999-07-02
Abstract: A laser (50) having a first layer (52) of a III-V semiconducting material of a first
semiconductor type on which a mask (54) having an opening therein is deposited. A second
layer (61) of a III-V semiconducting material of the first semiconductor type is grown from
the portion of the first layer (52) underlying the opening in the mask (54) and extends over the
mask (54). A first cladding layer (63) of a III-V semiconducting material of the first
semiconductor type is grown over the second layer (61) so as to cover the second layer (61).
The active layer (64) is grown over the first cladding layer (63). A second cladding layer (65) of a III-V
semiconducting material is grown over the active layer (64), the second cladding layer (65)
including a III-V semiconducting material of the opposite semiconductor type from the first
layer (52). Crystalline layers form the mirrors at opposite ends of an optical cavity.
The preferred III-V semiconducting material is GaN.

Abstract: A method for growing a crystalline layer[14] that includes a first material on a growth
surface of a crystalline substrate[12] of a second material, wherein the first material and the
second material have different lattice constants. A buried layer[18] is generated in the
substrate[12] such that the buried layer[18] isolates a layer of the substrate[12] that includes
the growth surface from the remainder of the substrate[12]. The second material is then
deposited on the growth surface at a growth temperature. The isolated layer[16] of the
substrate[12] has a thickness that is less than that thickness at which the crystalline lattice of
the first material will deform in response to the second material crystallizing thereon. The
buried layer[18] is sufficiently malleable at the growth temperature to allow the deformation
of the lattice of the isolated layer[16] without deforming the remainder of the substrate[12].
The present invention may be utilized for growing III-V semiconducting material layers on
silicon substrates. In the case of silicon-based substrates, the buried layer[18] is preferably
SiO 2  that is sufficiently malleable at the growth temperature to allow the deformation of the
isolated substrate layer[16].

Abstract: A multiple conversion radio receiver comprising at least
two load oscillators for converting an input signal to
respective first and second intermediate frequencies is
provided. Each load oscillator is a single loop synthesiser
which can be tuned in predetermined minimum frequency steps.
The step sizes in the two synthesisers are made mutually-prime
multiples of the desired small overall step size. The largest
step sizes allow the total phase noise of the two synthesisers
to be less than the phase noise of one synthesiser which has
a step size equal to the desired small step size. In this way
the phase noise for a desired small overall step size is
reduced.

Abstract: Silver interconnects (118) are formed by etching deep grooves (114) into an insulating layer (112)
over the contact regions, exposing portions of the contact regions and defining the
interconnects. The grooves (114) are etched with a truncated V- or U-shape, wider at the top
than at any other vertical location, and have a minimum width of 0.25 µm or less. An
optional adhesion layer and a barrier layer are sputtered onto surfaces of the groove,
including the sidewalls, followed by sputter deposition of a seed layer. Where aluminum
is employed as the seed layer, a zincating process may then be optionally employed to
promote adhesion of silver to the seed layer. The groove (114) is then filled with silver (116) by
plating in a silver solution, or with silver and copper by plating in a copper solution
followed by plating in a silver solution. The filled groove (114) which results does not exhibit
voids ordinarily resulting from sputter deposition of metal into such narrow, deep
grooves, although seams may be intermittently present in portions of the filled groove
where metal plated from the opposing sidewalls did not fuse flawlessly at the point of
convergence. Portions of the silver (116) and other layers above the insulating material (112) are
then removed by chemical-mechanical polishing, leaving a silver interconnect (118) connected
to the exposed portion of the contact region (110) and extending over adjacent insulating
regions to another contact region or a bond pad. Silver interconnects (118) thus formed may
have smaller cross-sections, and thus a greater density in a given area, than conventional
metallic interconnects.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour la transmission de données par l'intermédiaire d'une interface radio dans un système radiotéléphonique mobile GSM. Selon ce procédé, il est prévu, côté émission, une modulation de phase continue (CPM) des signaux d'émission pour les données à transmettre. Ce procédé consiste à employer une largeur de bande plus étroite que celle qui est utilisée lors d'une modulation à déplacement minimum gaussien (GMSK) avec une largeur de bande de modulation BT égale à 0,3, de sorte que l'interface radio mette à disposition au moins un canal à largeur de bande réduite. Côté réception, une détection des données est réalisée sans distinction des canaux présentant des largeurs de bande différentes. Ce procédé permet d'accroître considérablement la capacité dans les réseaux radiotéléphoniques mobiles et d'assister les applications de transmission de données asymétriques et intérieures.
