A pipeline A/D converter and its single redundancy bit digital correction are provided. The single redundancy bit digital correction includes the following steps: substages except for the last one quantizes input voltage, calculates the residual voltage, which is amplified and shifted to the middle part of the reference voltage range, and outputs to the following substage until the last one, which only quantizes the input voltage; the code and offset code of each substage corresponding to the quantized thermometer code are calculated; the offset codes of all stages are added by weight to get total offset code; and codes of all substages are added by weight, to which the total offset code is added. The comparator offset error is corrected to obtain an output code which identifies the negative or positive overflow of input signals. The A/D converter adopting the above digital correction is provided.

A method for treating spheroidal graphite iron includes the step: pouring molten spheroidal graphite iron into a pouring electrical furnace (1); covering the molten spheroidal graphite iron (5) with alkali slag (6) which is melted at high temperature and rich in alkali earth metal ion, rare earth metal ion, or mixture of them; connecting the molten spheroidal graphite iron (5) with the negative pole of the direct current source by one pole (7); connecting the alkali slag (6) with the positive pole of the direct current source by another pole (4), treating the molten spheroidal graphite iron (5) with the alkali slag (6) which is used as electrolyte. The method can prevent the spheroidized fading velocity of the spheroidal graphite iron. The pouring electrical furnace can be used for treating the molten spheroidal graphite iron.

The disclosure provides a method and system for signaling configuration of a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), the system comprises a base station and a target User Equipment (UE). The method comprises: a base station sends Downlink Control Information (DCI) to the target user equipment through a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PUCCH); and the downlink control information includes orthogonal cover code information and/or cyclic shift information for scheduling the physical uplink shared channel in the multi-antenna port transmission and/or single antenna port transmission. It is very adaptable and flexible to use the combination of multiple kinds of information to indicate the orthogonal cover code information in the downlink control information. The UE can obtain the orthogonal cover code information accurately, and the reliability of services can be improved.

An imaging technology for fuel cells is based on x-ray microscopy. A metrology system images the electrochemical interaction areas of solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFC) in-situ. This system takes advantage of both the penetrating power and elemental absorption contrast of hard x-ray radiation to image the internal interaction areas in a SOFC. The technology can further take advantage of the strong dependence of the x-ray absorption on material type and energy to distinguish the four major material types: cathode, electrolyte, air, and low-Z contaminants such as sulfur.

Methods for fabricating refractive element(s) and aligning the elements in a compound optic, typically to a zone plate element. The techniques are used for fabricating micro refractive, such as Fresnel, optics and compound optics including two or more optical elements for short wavelength radiation. One application is the fabrication of the Achromatic Fresnel Optic (AFO). Techniques for fabricating the refractive element generally include: 1) ultra-high precision mechanical machining, e.g,. diamond turning; 2) lithographic techniques including gray-scale lithography and multi-step lithographic processes; 3) high-energy beam machining, such as electron-beam, focused ion beam, laser, and plasma-beam machining; and 4) photo-induced chemical etching techniques. Also addressed are methods of aligning the two optical elements during fabrication and methods of maintaining the alignment during subsequent operation.

A scintillated CCD detector system for imaging x rays uses x-rays having a photon energy in the range of 1 to 20 keV. The detector differs from existing systems in that it provides extremely high resolution of better than a micrometer, and high detection quantum efficiency of up to 95%. The design of this detector also allows it to function as an energy filter to remove high-energy x-rays. This detector is useful in a wide range of applications including x-ray imaging, spectroscopy, and diffraction. The scintillator optical system has scintillator material with a lens system for collecting the light that is generated in the scintillator material. A substrate is used for spacing the scintillator material from the lens system.

摘要:
A lithography apparatus having achromatic Fresnel objective (AFO) that combines a Fresnel zone plate and a refractive Fresnel lens. The zone plate provides high resolution for imaging and focusing, while the refractive lens takes advantage of the refraction index change properties of appropriate elements near absorption edges to recombine the electromagnetic radiation of different energies dispersed by the zone plate. This compound lens effectively solves the high chromatic aberration problem of zone plates. The lithography apparatus allows the use of short wavelength radiation in the 1-15 nm spectral range to print high resolution features as small as 20 nm.
