Phosphor screen and displays systems

A phosphor screen for image forming including phosphor material being excitable by light in a wavelength λ1. The phosphor screen receives an optical image from an image forming optical system and produces the optical image at a second wavelength λ2. The phosphor screen includes a phosphor layer comprising the phosphor material. A short-pass reflective coating is positioned on a first side of the phosphor layer. The short-pass reflective coating transmits the wavelength λ1 and reflects the wavelength λ2. A long-pass reflective coating is positioned on a second side of the phosphor layer. The long-pass reflective coating transmits the wavelength λ2 and reflects the wavelength λ1. A first substrate is positioned over the short-pass reflective coating. The first substrate is formed of optically clear and thermal conductive material. A second substrate is positioned over the long-pass reflective coating. The second substrate is formed of long-pass absorptive optical filter material that transmits the wavelength λ2 and absorbs wavelength λ1 from ambient light to prevent the phosphor layer from being excited by the ambient light. The phosphor screen may alternatively be used for a direct-view visual display apparatus. These principles can also be utilized for backlighting and general illumination applications.

Semiconductor memory device and manufacturing method thereof

The present invention can promote the large capacity, high performance and high reliability of a semiconductor memory device by realizing high-performance of both the semiconductor device and a memory device when the semiconductor memory device is manufactured by stacking a memory device such as ReRAM or the phase change memory and the semiconductor device. After a polysilicon forming a selection device is deposited in an amorphous state at a low temperature, the crystallization of the polysilicon and the activation of impurities are briefly performed with heat treatment by laser annealing. When laser annealing is performed, the recording material located below the silicon subjected to the crystallization is completely covered with a metal film or with the metal film and an insulating film, thereby making it possible to suppress a temperature increase at the time of performing the annealing and to reduce the thermal load of the recording material.

Methods of Optimizing Vehicular Air Conditioning Control Systems

Air conditioning system controls are optimized for an air conditioning system having a compressor in IC engine vehicles and in hybrid or fuel cell vehicles having electric drive motors by first determining the operating temperature of at least one of the following vehicle components: engine coolant and transmission oil for all types of vehicles, and for hybrid or fuel cell vehicles also determining the operating temperature of inverter coolant and the electric drive motors. At least one operating temperature is then compared to lower and upper temperature limits. If the operating temperature is outside of the temperature limits air conditioner heat load is reduced by at least one of the following steps: increasing cabin air recirculation, reducing cabin blower speed and reducing air conditioner compressor capacity. Subsequent to reducing air conditioner heat load, selected operating temperature or temperatures are monitored to determine if the operating temperature exceeds the upper temperature limit or limits. If the operating temperature or temperatures exceed the upper limit or limits the compressor is shut off.

Combustion engine

A turbo-fed internal combustion engine has a first and a second exhaust-gas valve per cylinder, these exhaust-gas valves each being connected to their respective exhaust manifold. One exhaust manifold conducts exhaust gases to an exhaust-gas turbine and the other exhaust manifold conducts subsequent exhaust gases past this exhaust-gas turbine which drives a compressor for charge air. The intake valve of the cylinder is arranged so as, as the engine speed increases, to close either earlier, before the piston reaches its bottom dead center, or later, after the piston has passed its bottom dead center. In this way, the temperature increase resulting from compression in the cylinder is reduced. Cooled air from the compressor can be taken in so as to obtain an adequate degree of filling in the cylinder, with a lower final temperature.
