Abstract: A point-type radio controller eliminates a time interval between infrared signals transmitted from a plurality of transmitting diodes, and eliminates influences caused by a noise and an external interference. The point-type radio controller employs a frequency division transmitting method using a different carrier frequency. Otherwise, the present invention attaches horizontal and vertical polarization filters to the transmitting diodes, arranges a pair of polarization filters being the horizontal and vertical polarization filters at a constant distance in the receiving sensor, and transmits the infrared rays wherein horizontal and vertical polarization components are separated while transmitting. Otherwise, the present invention includes the infrared transmitting diodes having a different characteristic wavelength; includes a pair of the receiving sensors capable of receiving the infrared signals transmitted with having a different characteristic wavelength; basically separates the plurality of infrared signals from a plurality of transmitting diodes; and transmits the infrared signals. Accordingly, the infrared signals are simultaneously transmitted to outside without a time interval. As a result, the present invention prevents or minimizes a signal distortion and a mutual interference between the infrared rays in transmitting/receiving the infrared rays, accurately calculates coordinates-position indicated by the user, and thus accurately controls a pointing operation. Furthermore, since there are no influences caused by a noise and an external interference, a transmission error ratio decreases and a transmission ratio enhances.

Abstract: Procédé et appareil de criblage de composés destinés aux activités agricoles. On teste, par exemple, des plantes intactes s'étant développées sur des plaques de microtitration sur de très petites quantités de milieu de croissance de plante contenant un composé à évaluer. Par rapport au criblage ordinaire effectué en serre, le microcriblage demande beaucoup moins d'espace, de travail et de produit. Toutefois, contrairement à ce qui se passe dans les criblages in vitro, on évalue les réactions des plantes intactes. Grâce au microcriblage, on peut réaliser un criblage de composés à évaluer avec une grande productivité tout en utilisant dans l'évaluation les réactions des plantes entières.

Abstract: A process for etching shallow trenches in single crystal silicon is described. The process etchant comprises HBr/Cl 2 /O 2 /He. The process can be used with various mask  24  schemes including, for example, photoresists, oxide hardmasks and nitride hardmasks. The process forms shallow trenches  32  typically having a width of from about 0.25 microns to about 1 micron, and a depth of from about 0.3 microns to about 1 micron. The shallow trenches  32  have rounded bottom corners  38 , smooth and continuous sidewalls  34  and substantially flat and clean bottoms  36 . For a given trench width, the profile angle is substantially uniform across the single crystal silicon. The trench depth is substantially uniform across the silicon also. In addition, the profile angle is substantially independent of the trench depth. The process can comprise one or two etch steps for etching the single crystal silicon. The two-step etch process forms shallow trenches having varying profile angles with respect to the trench depth.

Abstract: An optical multiplexing device is provided comprising multiple wavelength
division multiplexers cascaded together. A first one of the wavelength division
multiplexers has a common port and multiple optical ports which are optically coupled
to the common port. The common port may be optically coupled to a trunk line of a
system employing wavelength division multiplexing, for example, a fiber-optic
telecommunication system employing 4, 8, 16 or other number of multiplexed
channels. The optical ports include multiple channel ports, each of which is transparent
to a corresponding wavelength sub-range and reflective of other wavelengths. The
second wavelength division multiplexer has a common port optically coupled to one of
the optical ports of the first wavelength division multiplexer. The second wavelength
division multiplexer also has multiple optical ports which are optically coupled to its
common port and include multiple wavelength-selective channel ports. A waveguide,
such as a fiber-optic line, can optically connect the common port of the second
wavelength division multiplexer to an optical port of the first wavelength division
multiplexer. The cascaded WDMs each may be optically coupled to the output of a
passive coupler and a housing may be provided defining an enclosed space in which the
optical multiplexing device is mounted. Optionally, additional WDMs may be
cascaded with the first two WDMs in a parallel or branched formation, an in-line
formation or some combination. Preferably, the channels are interleaved, such that they
are removed from the multiplexed signal in certain non-sequential order. The optical
multiplexing device also may employ compound interleaving wherein adjacent
channels are multiplexed by different ones of the cascaded WDMs. The optical
multiplexing devices can operate to add signals, remove signals or a combination of
both.
