Patent EP-1215476-A3 (EP)
Inventor: COFFA SALVATORE
IPC: G01L9/00
Filed: 2001-12-12
Abstract: Monolithically integrated pressure sensors of outstanding quality and versatility
are produced through micromechanical surface structures definition techniques. 
     A microphonic cavity in the semiconductor substrate is monolithically formed by
   cutting by plasma etching the front side or the back side of the silicon wafer a
plurality of trenches or holes deep enough to extend for at least part of its
thickness into a purposely made doped buried layer of opposite type of
conductivity of the substrate and of the epitaxial layer grown over it;   electrochemically etching through such trenches, the silicon of the buried layer
with an electrolytic solution suitable for selectively etching the doped silicon of
said opposite type of conductivity, making the silicon of the buried layer
porous; and   oxidizing and leaching away the silicon so made porous.    
     Preferably, the trenches or holes for accessing the doped buried layer are cut
through the epitaxial layer and not through the rear of the monocrystalline silicon
substrate thus avoiding the burden of precisely aligning the mask on the rear
surface with the masks that are used on the front surface of the substrate.
Moreover, the thickness of the substrate is normally much greater than that of the
epitaxial layer and thus the need to cut relatively deep and narrow trenches
requiring the use of special plasma etching equipment is avoided.

Abstract: A catheter has a basket-shaped electrode assembly (18) which includes an improved mechanism for expanding and contracting the electrode array. The expansion mechanism permits reproducible reintroduction of the catheter into the heart. The catheter comprises an elongated catheter body having at least one lumen through it. A basket-shaped electrode assembly is mounted at the distal end of the catheter body. The basket assembly comprises a plurality of spines (20) connected at their proximal and distal ends, each of which comprises at least one electrode (28). The basket assembly has an expanded arrangement wherein the spines bow radially outwardly and a collapsed arrangement wherein the spines are arranged generally along the axis of the catheter body. An expander is attached at or near its distal end to the distal ends of the spines and extends through the catheter body. The expander has a proximal end that extends out the proximal end of the catheter body a lumen extending through it. In use, the expander can be moved longitudinally relative to the catheter body to expand and contract the basket-shaped electrode assembly. The lumen that extends through the expander permits the catheter to be introduced into the heart over a guidewire. If the catheter is removed and subsequently reintroduced over the guidewire, the basket-shaped electrode assembly can be easily reintroduced to its original position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A layout capable of placing a circuit constituted by a plurality of transistors in a small-with region is automatically formed. A search section inputs data on a circuit and makes a search for a set of routes formed so that passage through any one of the transistors occurs only one time and so that the combination of routes in one set can cover the entire circuit network. An extraction section extracts a set of routes having the smallest number of routes in sets of route found by searching. A width determination section determines the layout width from the widths of source and drain electrodes of each transistor, the width of the region between the source and drain electrodes, the width of the region between some of the adjacent pairs of the transistors not combined into a common electrode, the number of transistors, and the smallest number of routes. A layout determination section forms information on a layout in which all the source, drain and gate electrodes of the transistor included in the circuit are placed in a small-width region having the determined width.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an

system including an electro-optic system 106 and a target
chamber 108. A computer 103 used for calculating thermal
deformation is provided outside a control computer 101.

amount of discrepancy as compensation data used for a
drawing program to be supplied to an electron beam

Abstract: In the diesel engine of the present invention, an early-stage injection (A) is
performed so that this injection is divided into a plurality of injections during the
compression stroke of the engine, and a main injection (B) is performed following
the completion of this early-stage injection. Furthermore, the early-stage
injection is performed using an amount of fuel and timing which are such that
the generation of heat caused by the early-stage injection occurs in the vicinity of
compression top dead center, and the main injection is performed using an
amount of fuel and timing which are such that the generation of heat caused by
the main injection occurs after the generation of heat caused by the early-stage
injection has been completed. Since the early-stage injection is divided into a
plurality of injections, the adhesion of fuel to the inside walls of the cylinder is
prevented, and pre-mixing of the fuel is promoted. Since the generation of heat
caused by the main injection occurs after the generation of heat caused by the
early-stage injection has been completed,'there is no sudden entry of fuel injected
by the main injection into the hot flame inside the cylinder; accordingly, the
aggravation of smoke is prevented.

Abstract: An individual with a hearing loss often experiences at least two distinct problems: 1) the
hearing loss itself i.e. an increase in hearing threshold level, and 2) a signal-to-noise ratio
loss (SNR loss) i.e. a loss of ability to understand high level speech in noise as compared
to normal hearing individuals. According to one aspect of the present invention, this
problem is solved by selecting parameter values of a noise reduction algorithm or
algorithms based on the individual user's SNR loss. Thereby, a degree of
restoration/improvement of the SNR of noise-contaminated input signals of the hearing
prosthesis has been made dependent on user specific loss data. According to another
aspect of the present invention, a hearing prosthesis capable of controlling parameters of
a noise reduction algorithms in dependence on the user's current listening environment as
recognized and indicated by the environmental classifier has been provided.

substantially at the target velocity v 0 , wherein V d2  > V d1 , E 2  > E 1 , τ p2  > τ p1  and P 2  <
P 1 . An alternate method for operating causes the emission of drops having
different volumes traveling at different velocities wherein all velocities are within
a pre-determined drop velocity range, v d min  to v d max · Further methods for
operating an ink jet printhead cause the emission of drops having different
volumes and velocities wherein the triggering of the drop emission is delayed so

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for producing nitrogen trifluoride a working fluid is
passed through a heat engine cycle and the mechanical energy generated by

reactor in order to disperse gaseous fluorine within a liquid ammonium acid
fluoride melt. A gaseous reaction product stream is removed from the reactor,
the reaction product stream comprising nitrogen trifluoride and a working fluid
vapor. The working fluid is then separated from the nitrogen trifluoride and
recycled for reuse in the process, thereby completing a heat engine cycle.
