Abstract: The invention pertains to a solar cell unit comprising a black electrode, a photovoltaic layer, front electrode, and a transparent top layer, characterised in that on top of the top layer at least one removable transparent polymer film is present. Preferably, 2-10, more preferably 3-5, removable transparent polymer films stacked one on top of the other are present on the top layer. On the bottom side the transparent polymer films may be provided with an adhesive layer which displays greater adhesion to the polymer film itself than to the underlying layer. Preferably, the solar cell unit is also provided with a substrate at the back of the back electrode. The presence of a transparent removable top layer enables easy removal of a surface it has got dirty.

Abstract: An orthogonal code generating circuit 10 is arranged by a counter circuit
unit 12, a combination circuit unit 14 of orthogonal codes, and a control circuit
unit 16. Furthermore, the combination circuit unit 14 is constructed of an
AND gate 14a and an exclusive-OR gate 14b. The control circuit unit 16
outputs a decode output in response to a set code designation signal CNo.
When a code generation starting signal ST is inputted, a counter circuit 12
starts to output a counter output. Both the decode output and the counter
output are entered to the combination circuit unit 14 which AND-gates the
corresponding output bits with each other, and thereafter, exclusively OR-gates
the AND-gated outputs, and then outputs the exclusively OR-gated signal as
serial data of an orthogonal code. As a consequence, since the conventional
ROM unit for storing thereinto the orthogonal codes can be omitted, the circuit
scale of the orthogonal code generating circuit 10 can be reduced.

Abstract: A method of making highly reflective mirrors on a wafer in the manufacture of photonic
devices involves preheating a wafer to remove adsorbed volatile contaminants at a
temperature between about 300 and 600°C. The wafer surface is etched at a temperature
between about 300 and 600°C to remove absorbed and chemically absorbed contaminants
in the presence of a plasma to prevent poisoning. The wafer surface is thoroughly cooled
so as to as reduce the surface mobility of the impinging atoms during the subsequent
metallic deposition. A deposition is then carried out on the cooled wafer of a gettering
layer for gettering hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. A metallic reflective layer is then
deposited in a deposition chamber, and finally the wafer is removed from the deposition
chamber to prevent excessive bulk oxidation.
