Patent EP-1189074-A3 (EP)
Inventor: PAN LIHONG
IPC: G01S15/89
Filed: 2001-09-14
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for automatically maintaining the Doppler sample
gate position at a pre-selected vessel position in B-mode or color flow images
during tissue or probe motion. The sample gate (34, 36) is locked onto the
selected vessel (30) automatically when the vessel position has changed.
Optionally, the vessel slope cursor (28) is automatically updated when the
vessel position has changed. The method employs pattern matching of
images from successive frames to determine how much a vessel in the image
frame has been translated and rotated from one frame to the next. Preferably,
either a cross-correlation method is applied to the imaging data in the spatial
domain to determine the relative object translation and/or rotation between
image frames, or a matched filtering method is applied to the imaging data in
the frequency (i.e., Fourier) domain to determine the relative object translation
and/or rotation between image frames.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing a high
quality ester and an ester obtained by this method. The method
includes reacting an alcohol with a carboxylic acid in a presence of a
Lewis acid catalyst in an amount of 0.00001 to 0.006 mol and a
phosphorus-containing reducing agent in an amount of 0.0003 to 0.005
mol with respect to one mol of carboxyl groups of the carboxylic acid,
and separating a resultant ester. This ester is useful as ester
lubricating base stock for grease, automotive engine oil, and
refrigerating machine oil.

Abstract: A method for forming a thermally stable cobalt disilicide film in the
fabrication of an integrated circuit is described. A semiconductor substrate is
provided having silicon regions to be silicided. A cobalt layer is deposited
overlying the silicon regions to be silicided. A capping layer is deposited overlying
the cobalt layer. The substrate is subjected to a first rapid thermal anneal whereby
the cobalt is transformed to cobalt monosilicide where it overlies the silicon
regions and wherein the cobalt not overlying the silicon regions is unreacted. The
unreacted cobalt layer and the capping layer are removed. A titanium layer is
deposited overlying the cobalt monosilicide layer. Thereafter the substrate is
subjected to a second rapid thermal anneal whereby the cobalt monosilicide is
transformed to cobalt disilicide. The titanium layer provides titanium atoms which
diffuse into the cobalt disilicide thereby increasing its thermal stability. The
titanium layer is removed to complete formation of a thermally stable cobalt
disilicide film in the manufacture of an integrated circuit.

Abstract: A rotary valve device includes a coupling mechanism between the handle (12) and a
valve stem (14). The handle (12) is rotated about an axis (20) and can also be axially moved
between first and second positions. When the handle is in the first axial position it
is operatively engaged with the valve stem, and when the handle is in its second
axial position it is operatively disengaged from the valve stem. The handle drives
the valve stem via a coupling mechanism in the form of a keyed coupling (42,44) between
the handle and the valve stem. The handle can be locked or receive a lock out
device against rotation when it is in its second axial position. The keyed coupling
and/or the pin and track arrangement can be used to permit axial movement of the
handle only when the handle is in a predetermined orientation. The handle
mechanism is shown in combination with a rotary operated valve having a valve
stem as the valve stem.
