Method and apparatus for common packet channel assignment

A method and device for initiating uplink data packet communication from a mobile device to a base station on a common packet channel is disclosed. The communication is initiated when the mobile device reads broadcast status of common packet channels, after which the mobile device sends an access preamble to the base station that is acknowledged by the base station, and then the mobile device sends a collision preamble which the base station answers with a matching collision response. If the base station's response to the collision preamble also includes a channel allocation message, then the base station begins uplink data packet communication on an allocated channel provided that the allocated channel previously had free broadcast status. However, if the base station's response to the collision preamble includes a channel allocation message designating channel(s) not previously having free broadcast status, then the mobile device's access attempt is aborted.

A floating gate transistor has a reduced barrier energy at an interface between a gallium nitride (GaN) or gallium aluminum nitride (GaAlN) floating gate an adjacent gate insulator, allowing faster charge transfer across the gate insulator at lower voltages. Data is stored as charge on the floating gate. The data charge retention time on the floating gate is reduced. The data stored on the floating gate is dynamically refreshed. The floating gate transistor provides a dense and planar dynamic electrically alterable and programmable read only memory (DEAPROM) cell adapted for uses such as for a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) or a dynamically refreshed flash EEPROM memory. The floating gate transistor provides a high gain memory cell and low voltage operation.

InactiveUS6965123B1Increase probabilityFaster programming and erasure timeTransistorRead-only memoriesCharge retentionPhotodetector
A CMOS-compatible FET has a reduced electron affinity polycrystalline or microcrystalline SiC gate that is electrically isolated (floating) or interconnected. The SiC material composition is selected to establish the barrier energy between the SiC gate and a gate insulator. In a memory application, such as a flash EEPROM, the SiC composition is selected to establish a lower barrier energy to reduce write and erase voltages and times or accommodate the particular data charge retention time needed for the particular application. In a light detector or imaging application, the SiC composition is selected to provide sensitivity to the desired wavelength of light. Unlike conventional photodetectors, light is absorbed in the floating gate, thereby ejecting previously stored electrons therefrom. Also unlike conventional photodetectors, the light detector according to the present invention is actually more sensitive to lower energy photons as the semiconductor bandgap is increased.

Utilization of bypass refrigerant to provide reheat and dehumidification function in refrigerant system

A refrigerant system is provided with an unloader bypass line to selectively unload the compressor and deliver refrigerant from a partially (or fully) compressed location back to a suction port of the compressor. A section of this unloader bypass line is placed in the path of air having passed over an evaporator and towards an environment to be conditioned. This section of the unloader bypass line would contain refrigerant that is at a higher temperature than the refrigerant, which had been delivered into the evaporator by the main circuit. In this manner, this bypass line section will provide the function of reheating the air above the temperature to which it had been cooled in the evaporator to achieve a desired humidity level. Thus, the reheat function is obtained without requiring a dedicated reheat loop, associated components and additional structure. Also, through the refrigerant temperature reduction, compressor reliability and performance are improved. Furthermore, the flow control device may be of an adjustable type (e.g. modulating or pulsating) to achieve variable sensible heat ratios and to cover a wide range of potential applications. Lastly, the bypass line may have extended heat transfer elements allowing heat transfer enhancement between the air and refrigerant.

Versatile system for wafer edge remediation

The present invention provides a system (200, 300) for remediating aberrations along the perimeter of a semiconductor wafer (202). The system includes a cleaning apparatus (204) within which the wafer is spun within a confined area. A chuck (208) defines the confined area, having a sidewall that extends above the upper surface (214) of the wafer and surrounds the perimeter of the wafer. The chuck also has a bottom wall, with an aperture formed therein, beneath the wafer. The system includes an isolation barrier (220), disposed atop the bottom wall of the chuck and around the aperture, in proximity to the lower surface so of the wafer. This forms a narrow gap (226) between the barrier and the wafer. A pressurized source forcefully directs a gas (218) at and along the lower surface of the wafer. The system also includes a remediation solution (228) that is applied to the upper surface of the wafer. The solution is forced into a well (230) formed between the chuck sidewall and the perimeter of the wafer, such that the solution bathes the perimeter of the wafer.
