    摘要: A coreless refractory fibre is made introducing a filament (16) of a former material into a chemical vapour deposition (CVD) enclosure (10) and then heating the end (21) of the filament by means of a contactless heating source. The source comprises a conducting coil connected to an AC source in the frequency range HF to UHF and with a linear or strip conducting element (110) connected to it such that the end of the element is adjacent to the end (21) of the filament. The filament (16) is then withdrawn such that refractory material is continuously built up on its end from the chemical vapours in the enclosure to form a coreless refractory fibre. Whiskers of a coreless refractory material may be made by introducing fine particles of a catalyst material on to a platform (22) inside a CVD enclosure (25), melting the catalyst material to form droplets and then feeding CVD gases to the droplets (30) to thereby promote crystal growth by precipitation from the supersaturated liquid. The end of the precipitated material within the enclosure is heated by means of a linear conducting element vertically mounted and provided at its free end with a perpendicular conducting disc (111) adjacent and parallel to the platform (22). The platform is then moved vertically from the heat source such that the separation of the droplets (30) from the heating source (111) is maintained constant as chemical vapour is continuously deposited under the droplets (30) from the chemical vapours in the enclosure to form whiskers.

    摘要: A digital processor (10) for two's complement computations incorporates an array (12*) of multiplier cells (12) each having the one-bit gated full adder logic function. The array (12*) has nearest-neighbour connections (16, 18, 20) containing clock-activated latches (42, 44, 50) for bit propagation. On each clock cycle, the cells (12) receive input data, carry and cumulative sum bits. Each cell (12) adds the carry and cumulative sum bits to the product of the data bit and a respective coefficient digit associated with the relevant cell (12). Data bits pass along array rows and sum bits accumulate in cascade down array columns. Carry bits are recirculated. Each coefficient digit is expressed as a sign bit and at least one magnitude bit consisting of or including a level bit. Each cell (12) includes multiplicative gating means (58, 62) responsive to the sign and level bits, and carry feedback means (60, 66) responsive to a least significant data bit flag to substitute the sign bit for a carry feedback bit. Each coefficient digit may include an additional magnitude bit expressed as a shift bit and employed to select multiplicand data bit significance, the gating means (58, 62) being responsive to flag bits to eliminate unwanted sign extension bit products. The processor (10 or 200) may include accumulating means (14 or 214) incorporating gates (90, 98 or 292, 298, 336) responsive to flag bits and arranged to eliminate unwanted result sign extension bits.
