Inventor: ANDRIST KEVIN M
IPC: C08F2/06
Filed: 1995-10-13
Abstract: A process is disclosed for the continuous production, with reduced gel formation, of free radical addition polymers from ethylenically unsaturated monomers containing at least one free hydroxyl group such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, from about 0 to about 5% by weight of an alpha-beta unsaturated carboxylic acid such as acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, and the remainder of the monomers used are free radical addition copolymerizable compounds such as styrene, methyl methacrylate and butyl acrylate. The free radical addition polymerization is conducted at from about 150 DEG  C. to about 310 DEG  C. under superatmospheric pressure in the presence of one or more solvents. The solvent or the volume average of the solvent mixture has an overall calculated root mean square value of the hydrogen bonding and polar contributions of each solvent's solubility parameters in the range of from about 6 to about 15. The solvent or solvents in total have sufficient volatility under the conditions being used to conduct the polymerization such that any liquid condensate of vapor mixture forming on interior surfaces of the reactor equipment located above the surface of the monomer reactants contains at least 50 mole percent of the solvent to reduce gel formation on such interior surfaces. The process permits the continuous polymerization of the polymers over extended periods of time with reduced formation of gel particles and gel deposits.

Title: Structure de gradient d'energie pour heterojonction
Inventor: DAVIS GARY A
IPC: H01L29/66
Filed: 1995-10-25
Abstract: Un gradient d'énergie potentielle à progression lisse et monotone a été établi au niveau d'une hétérojonction entre (InGa)As type p et InP non dopé, pour permettre un transfert efficace des électrons conducteurs de la couche (InGa)As:p (14) à la couche InP: ζ (20). Ce gradient d'énergie potentielle a été établi à l'aide d'une couche d'alliage à semi-conducteur type p à graduation compositionnelle (16) et d'une couche de champ incorporée InP type n (18) interposée au niveau de l'hétérojonction. La couche d'alliage à semi-conducteur à graduation compositionnelle distribue spatiallement la discontinuité de la bande conductrice de l'hétérojonction (InGa)As-InP, et la couche de champ incorporée InP:n élimine les barrières d'énergie potentielle provenant de la bande conductrice sur une large gamme de polarisations appliquées de l'extérieur, y compris les polarisations non appliquées de l'extérieur. Le gradient d'énergie potentielle à progression lisse et monotone ainsi établi favorise le transfert efficace des électrons conducteurs en raison de leur dérive de la couche (InGa)As:p à la couche collectrice InP à bande interdite large, où ils viennent contribuer au courant de sortie des dispositifs électroniques utilisés, quel que soit leur nombre. L'utilité de cette structure de gradient d'énergie potentielle a été démontrée dans un dispositif à photocathode à électrons transférés, dans lequel on a utilisé le transfert efficace des photoélectrons de la couche absorbante (InGa)As:p à la couche de transfert d'électrons InP: ζ.

Abstract: The invention relates to a subscriber service implemented in a telecommunications network (301). The subscriber service is used by a called B-subscriber (MS1), wherein the B-subscriber is able to control the call connection sequence by means of the subscriber service in the event of a call request from a calling A-subscriber (A1). Two separate connections are set-up when the call request is sent from the A-subscriber to the B-subscriber. If the B-subscriber accepts the call, the connections are interconnected in a service node (303). When the B-subscriber chooses to utilize the subscriber service, the subscriber number of the A-subscriber is stored in a memory (304) and the A-subscriber is informed that the B-subscriber will call back later, whereafter the call request is terminated and the two separate connections are released. The B-subscriber is then able to call the A-subscriber with the aid of the subscriber service, while using the A-number stored in the memory (304).
