Title: Method and device for producing electrically conductive continuity in semiconductor components
Inventor: KRIEGEL BERND
IPC: H01L31/0224
Filed: 1998-06-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for the production of electrically conductive passages in semiconductor components preferably positioned on a semiconductor, by means of thermo-migration through the production of a temperature gradient between two opposing outer surfaces of the semiconductor components and application of a conductive doping substance to a cooler outer surface. One outer surface of the semiconductor is positioned on a cooled sample take-up and the opposing outer surface is exposed to heat radiation, which can be controlled both with regard to its total efficiency and its efficiency distribution over the surface of the semiconductor. The total efficiency and/or the efficiency distribution of the heat radiation is adjusted depending upon the temperature measured on at least one temperature measurement point on the semiconductor and/or a semiconductor component.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne de nouvelles pièces améliorées pour voitures et camions légers. Plus spécifiquement, certaines pièces traditionnellement fabriquées en acier, parfois en acier trempé, telles que les chemises de cylindres, différentes pièces de distribution, disques d'embrayage, rotors de freinage et pistons des étriers de freins, peuvent être désormais fabriquées en matériaux à base d'aluminium, ce qui permet de réaliser un gain pondéral considérable. Un matériau composite à matrice métallique en aluminium/nitrure d'aluminium est appliqué sur les surfaces de contact ou d'usure de manière à leur conférer une résistance adéquate à l'abrasion, et protéger ainsi les pièces d'engrenement d'une usure excessive. La couche composite à matrice métallique peut être appliquée sur un substrat composite à matrice métallique ou sur un substrat en aluminium non armé. La surface en aluminium/nitrure d'aluminium est également plus facile à usiner que la plupart des matériaux composites à matrice métallique.

Abstract: An optical head apparatus includes an objective lens which receives a light
beam from a light source and condenses the light beam onto the optical recording medium. A
photo-detector has plurality of photo-detecting planes disposed orthogonal to an optical axis
of the reflected light beam and symmetrical with respect to the optical axis, and detects the
light beam reflected by the optical recording medium. Each of the photo-detecting plane is
divided into a plurality of divided areas by a plurality of dividing lines which are
symmetrically divide the photo-detecting planes with respect to the optical axis. A diffractive
optical element is disposed upstream to the photo-detector for diffracting the reflected light
beam to diffract the reflected light beam such that the reflected light beam is divided at least
in a direction parallel to a track of the optical recording medium, and a +Nth order diffracted
light beam and a -Nth order diffracted light beam (N is 1 or an integer more than 1) in the
photo-detecting plane are independently received by the divided areas which are disposed in
positions symmetrically opposite with respect to the optical axis respectively. An arithmetic
circuit calculates an error signal with respect to a position of the objective lens along the
optical axis, by using outputs from the photo-detector of both the +Nth order diffracted light
beam and the -Nth order diffracted light beam. A driver generates a signal for controlling the
position of the objective lens based on an output from the arithmetic circuit.

Abstract: An image delivery and display system embodying a technique for displaying
on a client computer of a client-server network a portion of an image stored on the
server. Upon receiving a request from the client computer specifying particular x, y
coordinates, the server decompresses the image to extract the area of interest,
partitions the image area into tiles and extracts the tile containing the x, y
coordinates and a certain number of surrounding tiles, recompresses those tiles and
transmits those tiles to the client computer. The tile containing the x, y coordinates
is extracted, recompressed and transmitted first followed by the surrounding tiles in
spiral order. The client computer then decompresses and displays the tiles in that
same order.

IPC: F26B13/10
Filed: 1999-08-27
Abstract: A fuel fired drying system for a continuous material feed has the material (WB) passed horizontally between upper and lower drying jets (3,4) fed by twin blowers which draw hot gasses from a common duct (11). The hot gasses comprise combustion gasses from the burner and recirculated gasses. If the material feed stops, a safety procedure switches the by-pass flaps for the lower drying jets to shut off the drying flow onto the material while the blower of the other jets has its speed reduced, or stopped, by a frequency switch. With the by-pass flaps switched into the safety setting a recirculating gas flow is maintained so that the drying process can be re-started at the selected temperature.

Abstract: A method for operating a wireless telecommunications system whereby communication
channels are efficiently allocated to cells of the system is provided. In accordance with an
illustrative embodiment of the present method, call demand information is obtained for each cell
in the wireless system and converted to a channel demand. Once the channel demand for each cell
is known, a tentative channel allocation is performed. Call demand information can be obtained
as frequently as desired to update channel allocation throughout the wireless system. In some
embodiments, the method for channel allocation described herein can be used alone to allocate
channels. In other embodiments, the present method for channel allocation can be used on an
hourly, daily, or other temporal basis, as appropriate, to provide a channel allocation which is
then updated on a substantially continuous basis by any conventional dynamic channel allocation
scheme. To allocate channels, an "interference graph" that relates interfering cells to one another
is defined. When nearest-cell interference is considered, an initial step is performed wherein three
channels are iteratively allocated to all cells in the system to remove all groupings within the
interference graph comprising three mutually-interfering cells. During the initial step, the
allocation of three channels reduces channel demand by one in every cell. Once the interference
graph is free of such three-membered groupings, channel demand is reduced more efficiently
wherein no more than five channels are allocated to satisfy two units of channel demand. To do
so, a decomposition/reconstruction operation is performed wherein the interference graph is
segregated into groupings of cells to which channels are allocated. The operation for allocating
channels to cells when nearest- and next-to-nearest-cell interference is considered does not use the
initial step of allocating three channels. It does, however, proceed in a manner analogous to the
decomposition/reconstruction process mentioned above, although the operation is performed on a
cell-by-cell basis, rather than with groupings of cells.

Abstract: The present invention relates to determining the proximity of a tag to a fuel dispensing
position of a forecourt (20) and provides a system to store a sequence of data records
relating to attributes of interactions between fuel dispensers (20) and tags (100). The data
records may be stored on the tag or at a location remote from the tag, such as a fuel
dispenser, central site controller (28) or other network (300). The data records may
contain the identity of the dispenser, tag and any attribute or a received signal, such as
frequency band or signal strength, or other attribute indicative of proximity. Every
dispenser (200) that attempts to communicate with a tag (100) adds its won interaction
data to a limited history of a tag's past interactions with the same and other dispensers.
When a dispenser (200) or central site control system (28) examines the contents of the
interaction histories, the detected presence of other dispensers or the relative strength of
the recorded interaction attributes will determine what, if any, action is to be taken by the
dispensers or central site control system to communicate with the tag.
