Zur Vorrichtung gehören Ionenquellen (12, 13, 14), Mittel (16) zum Beschleunigen der Ionen, Mittel, um unerwünschte Ionen abzutrennen und um aus zwei Quellen (12, 13 bzw. 14) stammende Ionenstrahlen gleichzeitig auf denselben Bereich der Substratoberfläche zu richten, und Mittel (23, 24 und 25) zum Abbremsen der Ionen. Als Mittel zum Abtrennen von Ionen und zum Strahlrichten dient entweder je ein Massenseparator für jeden Ionenstrahl oder aber ein einziger Massenseparator (18), der die Ionenstrahlen aus zwei Quellen in einen koaxialen Bahnverlauf bringt. Die mittels dieser Vorrichtung aufgewachsenen Schichten werden erst durch eine Wärmebehandlung bei Temperaturen zwischen 550 und 900°C einkristallin. Mit dem Verfahren lassen sich dünne Epitaxieschichten mit genau festgelegter, vertikaler Dotierungsstoffverteilung erzeugen. Kombiniert mit dem Photolack-"Abhebe"-Verfahren können mit dem Verfahren Epitaxieschichtbereiche selektiv auf einem Substrat (10) aufgewachsen werden.

Abstract: A multiple sample needle assembly (10) for determining fluid access when collecting fluid samples from a source of fluid into a vacuum collection devide (16). The assembly (10) includes a housing (12) with a chamber (50) therein having first and second access openings (30, 42) in fluid communication with the chamber (50). The housing (12) is preferably translucent to provide for the viewing of the contents of the chamber (50). A cannula (14) is associated with the first access opening (30), while the second access opening (42) is adapted for fluid communication with the vacuum collection device (10). An operable, resilient valve member (26) is positioned in the chamber (50) and is normally closed against a gas permeable, liquid impermeable plug member (27) mounted in the valve member (26). The valve member (26) is adapted to open away from the plug member (27) when the pressure at the second access opening (42) is less than the pressure at the first access opening (30). When the cannula (14) makes entry into the fluid source, fluid enters the chamber (50) by forcing any gas therein through the porous plug member (22) with the fluid in the chamber (50) being viewable by the user. This fluid remains in the chamber (50) until the valve member (26) opens under the pressure differential.

Abstract: A storage hierarchy has a backing store (14) and a cache (15). During a series of accesses to the hierarchy by a user (10) write commands are monitored and analysed. Writing data to the hierarchy results in data being selectively removed from the cache. Space in the cache not being allocated to data being written, results in such data being written to the backing store to the exclusion of the cache. Writing as part of a chain or sequential set of commands causes further removal of the data from the cache at the end of the chain or sequence. Removal of data increases the probability of writing data directly to the backing store with data readings from the cache.

Abstract: A programmable transversal filter (100) utilises a plurality of programmable multiplying means (M 1 -M 4 ). The result of each multiplication is summed by a summing circuit (7), thus providing an output signal [y(t]]. The delay network comprises a plurality of signal sample and hold circuits (S 1 -S 4 ) which are selectively connected to the input bus in sequence, in order that one sample and hold circuit may store an analog signal sampled during the present time instant, with other sample and hold circuits storing a plurality of analog signals each of which has been sampled during a corresponding one of a plurality of preceding sample periods. The filter also includes a plurality of reference sample and hold circuits (S, -1 to 84-1) which store error voltages equal to the error voltage component of the voltages provided by the signal sample and hold circuits. 
     A first analog cross-point switch (51) is utilised wherein each of said plurality of time-delayed analog signals may be selectively applied to a selected multiplying means. By utilising an analog cross-point switch, a transversal filter having programmable tap weights is constructed wherein the tap weights remain fixed in the multipliers until reprogrammed, without the need for rotating the tap weights among the plurality of multipliers. Furthermore, each input voltage sample is stored in a single sample and hold circuit. Because the transversal filter does not cycle the tap weights among multipliers, the dynamic range or the output signal of the transversal filter is increased, with a substantial decrease in fixed pattern noise. 
     A second analog cross-point switch (51-1) is utilised to selectively connect the output voltage from the reference sample and hold circuits to the multiplier means, thereby eliminating the effect of the error voltages on the output voltage of the transversal filter.
