Filed: 2001-10-22
Abstract: An electrophotosensitive material comprising a supporting
substrate, an intermediate layer containing a thermosetting resin
formed on the supporting substrate, and a photosensitive layer
formed on the intermediate layer, wherein a contact angle of the
surface of the intermediate layer is not less than a value (A° )
represented by the formula: A° = B° - 2° in which B° is a contact
angle corresponding to an intersection of a first approximation
linear line and a second approximate linear line minus 2° in a
correlation curve between a residual potential of the
photosensitive material comprising the predetermined
photosensitive layer formed on the intermediate layer containing
the thermosetting resin and a contact angle of the intermediate
layer containing the thermosetting resin. According to this
photosensitive material, it is possible to obtain a good image,
which has a low residual potential and is free from fog.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for simultaneously forming a metallization and
contact structure in an integrated circuit. The method involves the steps of etching a trench
dielectric layer of a composite structure having a semiconductor substrate with an active
region, a gate structure thereon, at least one dielectric spacer adjacent to the gate structure, a
contact dielectric layer over the semiconductor substrate, the gate structure and the dielectric
spacer, an etch stop layer over the contact dielectric layer, and a trench dielectric layer over
the etch stop layer, to form a trench in the trench dielectric under etch conditions which do
not substantially etch the etch stop layer; thereafter, forming an opening in the etch stop layer
and the contact dielectric layer by etching under conditions which do not damage the gate
structure to expose the active region; and depositing a conductive material into the opening
and the trench.

Abstract: This invention describes the identification of pre-messenger RNA processing as a novel target of environmental stress caused by example of lithium and sodium toxicity. Overexpression of different types of proteins (or protein fragments) from different organisms but all involved in pre-mRNA processing, protects yeast from salt stress, which indicates that any stimulation of this process, independently of its mechanism, may counteract the toxic effects of mineral salts. A similar phenotype of tolerance to NaCl and to LiCl has been observed by overexpression of these types of proteins in transgenic Arabidopsis plants, demonstrating the generality of this protective effect in eukaryotic cells and organisms.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à une structure à pylône ou barrière qui est encastrée dans le sol ou une autre surface et comporte un pylône de type mât susceptible de se déplacer entre une position déployée permettant de réguler le trafic piéton ou automobile, et une position en retrait en-dessous du niveau du sol. Le déplacement du pylône est obtenu au moyen d'un mécanisme d'entraînement de type linéaire qui joue le rôle d'embrayage par sa capacité à supprimer l'accouplement avec un arbre d'entraînement sans à-coup, rotatif et vertical, lors d'un abaissement abrupt du pylône de manière à empêcher les dégâts aux composants internes de la structure. Un dispositif d'étanchéité est utilisé pour empêcher la pénétration de débris à l'intérieur de la structure à pylône, et une unité chauffante est utilisée pour empêcher la rupture de la structure en cas de conditions météorologiques extrêmes.

Abstract: The present invention is a system and method for providing real-time tariff and import data over a computer network, including, preferably, the calculation of total landed cost. The total landed cost is calculated as a function of input transaction information, such as transaction value, freight and insurance costs, type ofgood(s), import, shipment, and export countries. A duty calculation engine accesses relevant tariff rates and applies the lowest of such rates to arrive at a duty calculation. An import tax calculation engine accesses relevant databases of country specific import tax rates, charges and fees and applies them to arrive at import tax costs. A total landed cost calculation engine determines the total landed cost from the duty calculation and the import tax calculation.

Abstract: Procédé mis en application dans un environnement informatique soumis à une émulation et servant à découpler de façon logique le système d'exploitation de l'hôte et le processeur du système informatique en ce qui concerne certains réglages du processeur. Un hyperviseur du programme d'émulation remplace quelques-uns des réglages du processeur par des réglages associés à des programmes logiciels ou à des structures de données transmis par le système d'exploitation client. Les réglages remplacés sont enregistrés dans une mémoire. Pendant cette période, quand le processeur appellera un programme logiciel ou accédera à une structure de données associée au réglage remplacé, il appellera ou accédera à un programme logiciel ou accédera à une structure de données associée au système d'exploitation client, tout en contournant le système d'exploitation hôte et en communiquant directement avec le système d'exploitation client. Quand le système d'exploitation hôte devra être couplé de nouveau au processeur, les réglages de ce dernier ayant été sauvegardés dans la mémoire seront réécrits dans les registres appropriés du processeur. Pendant la période de couplage de l'hyperviseur et du processeur, la table de page de l'hyperviseur sera établie de façon à réfléchir en majeure partie la table de page du système d'exploitation client. Si une modification de la table de page du système d'exploitation client provoque un litige entre la table de page de ce système d'exploitation client et la table de page de l'hyperviseur, cette table de page de l'hyperviseur sera réaffectée de manière à être transparente pour le système d'exploitation client.
