Abstract: The electric device (1, 100) has a body (2, 101) with a resistor (7, 250) comprising a phase change material being changeable between a first phase and a second phase. The resistor (7, 250) has an electric resistance which depends on whether the phase change material is in the first phase or the second phase. The resistor (7, 250) is able to conduct a current for enabling a transition from the first phase to the second phase. The phase change material is a fast growth material which may be a composition of formula Sb1−cMc with c satisfying 0.05≤c≤0.61, and M being one or more elements selected from the group of Ge, In, Ag, Ga, Te, Zn and Sn, or a composition of formula SbaTebX100−(a+b) with a, b and 100−(a+b) denoting atomic percentages satisfying 1≤a/b≤8 and 4≤100−(a+b)≤22, and X being one or more elements selected from Ge, In, Ag, Ga and Zn.

Title: Method and apparatus for measuring thickness of thin films via transient thermoreflectance
Inventor: MAZNEV ALEXEI
IPC: G01B11/06
Filed: 2003-12-10
Abstract: A method for measuring the thickness of a film is based on monitoring a transient change of the reflectivity of the film following an impulsive heating. The method includes the steps of impulsively irradiating a surface of the film with an excitation pulse to cause a rise in temperature in the film; irradiating the surface of the film with a probe beam, such that it reflects off the surface of the film to generate a reflected probe beam; detecting a time-dependent variation in intensity of the reflected probe beam; generating a signal waveform based on the measured variations in intensity; and determining the thickness of the film based on the signal waveform.

Abstract: Stable, homogeneous melt solutions are prepared at temperatures of 200° C. or less from solid mixtures comprising at least one diaryl carbonate, at least one high melting dihydroxy aromatic compound (mp>200° C.), a transesterification catalyst, and optionally a lower melting dihydroxy aromatic compound. Thus, a stable, homogeneous melt solution is obtained from a solid mixture comprising 4,4'-biphenol (mp 282-284° C.) at a temperature of about 200° C. using either diphenyl carbonate or bis(methyl salicyl) carbonate as the diaryl carbonate component. It is shown that formation of the stable, homogeneous melt solutions requires the presence of the transesterification catalyst when substantial amounts of the high melting dihydroxy aromatic compound are present in the initial solid mixture. Solid mixtures comprising a variety of high melting bisphenols; 4,4'-biphenol; 3,3,3,3'-tetramethylspirobiindanbisphenol, and 4,4'-sulfonyidiphenol are converted to stable, homogeneous melt solutions at 200° C., a temperature substantially below the melting points of the high melting bisphenols in their pure states.

Abstract: A method of preventing interference of signal transmission of electronic input devices, using a receiving unit that has multiple frequency channels to connect a host. The receiving unit is accompanied with software program to set up one sequence of frequency-hopping channels for each type of electronic devices such as mouse, keyboard, remote control and audio input device. The software program also defines one of the frequency-hopping channels as a starting receiving frequency channel. When a signal is transmitted from a specific type of electronic devices, the receiving unit switches the frequency to its starting receiving frequency channel for receiving such signal. When the signal has been interfered, the receiving unit automatically hops the frequency to the next available hopping frequency channel of the specific type of electronic devices until the interference is eliminated.
