Abstract: Transmission characteristics of an optical device [200], fabricated from multiple
layers [16, 27, 28] of silica-based glass on a silicon substrate [26], are modified by
localized thermal treatment. The beam [501] of a carbon-dioxide (CO 2 ) laser [510] is
used to selectively soften the core and/or cladding material of a waveguide structure
during or after the fabrication process. In one application, softening relieves the strain
developed between the waveguide structure and the silicon substrate and substantially
reduces or eliminates birefringence. In a second application, the CO 2  laser is operated at
another power level in order to modify the index of refraction. Changes in the index of
refraction change the speed of light through a waveguide thereby changing the phase shift
associated with the waveguide. In a third application, the CO 2  laser is operated at yet
another power level to increase the transmission loss of the waveguide. In all of the
embodiments, heat treatment is substantially faster and/or less expensive than known
techniques for modifying the transmission characteristics of an optical device.

Abstract: A handy and efficient method for generation
of hydrogen gas, in which a reaction medium prepared
by dissolving a metal hydrogen complex compound such as
sodium borohydride NaBH 4  in an aqueous alkaline solution
such as a 10% by weight aqueous solution of sodium or
potassium hydroxide is brought into contact with a catalyst
which is a metal such as cobalt and nickel or a so-called
hydrogen-absorbing alloy such as Mg 2 Ni so that decomposition
of the metal hydrogen complex compound proceeds even at
room temperature to generate hydrogen gas. The catalytic
activity of the catalyst can be increased by subjecting the
catalyst to a fluorinating treatment in which the catalyst
powder is immersed in an aqueous solution of potassium
fluoride acidified with hydrofluoric acid.

Abstract: A throttler method for rapid start-up for use with broadcast automation
systems. A throttler (100) loads an initial playlist (106) while also accepting
editing commands (108). The throttler interleaves these events and
commands and generates and modifies the playlist of scheduled events. The
throttler sends the events to a broadcast automation system (118) for
execution which drives audio and video devices (120) based on the scheduled
events, allowing the editing commands (108) to be interleaved with non-editing
commands (114). For unprocessed editing command, a command
pair of up to two pieces of information are maintained: one deletion command
(110) and one insertion command (112). Each command, or event, has a
unique "event identifier" and is hashed into a rapidly accessible priority queue
table, according to urgency.

Abstract: A method of recycling a thermosetting resin such as acid anhydride cured epoxy resin,
polyurethane resin, unsaturated polyester resin and the like is provided. The
thermosetting resin is plasticized by adding an amino compound as decomposer to the
thermosetting resin to produce a plasticized resin. The plasticized resin is hardened
again by adding a re-hardener to the plasticized resin. For the re-hardener, a compound
which works on the amino compound to cause hardening, e.g. epoxy prepolymer, is
used. The amino compound breaks the network structure of thermoset resin to bond or
associate with the broken network structure, and the re-hardener reacts with both of the
amino compound and the plastiziced resin.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une bascule thermo-optique dont le mode quasi-impulsionnel donne une largeur d'impulsion d'attaque inférieure à deux fois le temps de diffusion du basculement. De fait, la largeur de l'impulsion d'attaque, qui est inférieure au temps de montée pour la réponse optique en régime établi, est également inférieure au temps de montée pour la réponse d'efficience en déflexion faisant suite à l'application de l'impulsion d'attaque. Pour prolonger la durée de l'état passant de la bascule, il suffit d'inclure dans l'impulsion d'attaque un segment de soutien à la suite du bref segment impulsionnel initial. L'invention concerne également divers procédés supplémentaires servant à réduire encore plus le temps de réponse de la bascule. Le temps de montée rapide des différentes bascules fait que les matrices de bascules thermo-optiques mises en oeuvre de cette façon permettent de réaliser des afficheurs qui se distinguent par une cadence de régénération d'ensemble très élevée.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système permettant d'améliorer l'affichage de pages web associées à des signaux vidéo de télévision sur un écran de télévision comprenant des modes d'affichage améliorés. Dans un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention, le visionneur commande la transparence d'une image de type image dans image (PIP). Une image PIP qui normalement recouvre une partie de l'image de fond est rendue transparente de façon que l'utilisateur puisse voir cette image de fond à travers cette image PIP. On peut voir simultanément deux images de la même taille en utilisant la commande de transparence, alors qu'une image de fond plein écran et qu'une image de premier plan plein écran occupent simultanément l'écran vidéo de la télévision. Dans un second mode de réalisation d'affichage amélioré de vidéo de télévision et de graphiques web, une image de type image dans graphique (PIG) est incrustée comme un objet dans une page web HTML. Lorsque cette page web HTML est affichée en image de fond et qu'on la fait défiler (ou qu'on l'affiche en panoramique), l'image vidéo de télévision PIG défile avec l'image de fond de page web HTML. Ainsi, l'image PIG plus petite ne recouvre pas une grosse partie de l'image de graphique de fond plus grande.

Abstract: A structure of bands (107) is associated with printhead-array
image-forming elements (A-C), forming a printmask (74). Some band
pairs are complementary (111). A low usage percent is stated
(118) for at least one band (121) and a like value for another, a
complement to each "at least one" band, to smooth the mask and image.
The invention best sets (106) a number  N  of passes, a
wavenumber multiplier  M  for the image, and overall number  B  of
bands  N  x  M  x 2, the "2" accounting for odd and even elements;
bands appear in order (107):
   first group of  M  bands, odd and even,   second group of  M  bands, odd and even,   . . .   ( N  - 1)th group of  M  bands, odd and even,     N th group of  M  bands, odd and even.  
Complementary bands best include (112) binary-opposite bands, in
alternate groups. Ideally (108)  N  = 8,  M  = 2; yielding eight
groups of two bands odd and even; complementary bands are (113):
       odd group(s)   even group(s)     1   2, 4, 6, 8     2, 4, 6, 8   1     2   3, 5, 7     3, 5, 7   2     3   4, 6, 8     4, 6, 8   3     4   5, 7     5, 7   4      5   6, 8     6, 8   5     6   7     7   6     7   8     8   7.                           
Preferably the at least one band contains known-problematic elements
not (121) at an array end (b, e), or chosen independently of
location; printing is monitored (63, 80, 65, 81; 116) to find such
bands; an additional band contains end elements (86); common
percent is given (117) all elements of each band. Another novel
aspect: a head (23, 24, 25, 26) passes over a print medium (4A),
forming swaths; between passes the medium steps (126) by a distance
that varies (185). Preferably a multipass printmode (Fig.
6) is defined with varying step (J to K, K to N, N to O, O to Q, Q
to R); swath edges (b, e) are spaced well away (175) from each
other.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrolyte capable of obtaining an excellent quality of
electrolyte, and a battery using the electrolyte. A battery device in which a
positive electrode and a negative electrode are stacked with a separator
being interposed therebetween is enclosed inside an exterior member. The
separator is impregnated with an electrolyte. The electrolyte contains a
high polymer, a plasticizer, a lithium and at least either carboxylic acid or
carboxylate. Therefore, when preparing a high polymer by means of
polymerization of monomers, the polymerization of monomers can be
smoothly processed even if there is a factor for inhibiting reaction such as
copper. As a result, the amount of non-reacted monomers remained in the
electrolyte can be suppressed to be extremely small. Therefore,
decomposition and reaction of monomers are suppressed even after repeating
charging/discharging, so that the deterioration in the charging/discharging
efficiency and the charging/discharging characteristic can be prevented.
