摘要:
A polycrystalline silicon thin film having a hydrogen content of not more than 5 atomic %, which can be fabricated on an inexpensive glass substrate (3) such as soda glass or on a glass substrate (3) provided with a metal electrode or transparent electrode. The polycrystalline silicon thin film can be fabricated at such a tempereture by using multiple repetitions of a process comprising the fabrication of an amorphous silicon film, for example, by the CVD method, followed by exposure to a hydrogen plasma for set period of time.

There is provided an output apparatus comprising: a 1st memory to store the print information of the 1st color; a 2nd memory which stores the print information of the 2nd color and has the same address arrangement as that of the 1st memory; a CPU as a reading device for allowing the print information of the 1st and 2nd colors to be simultaneously read out of the 1st and 2nd memories synchronously with the print timing for the 1st-color print information; and a timing adjusting circuit for delaying the print timing for the readout 2nd-color print information than the print timing for the 1st-color print information by a predetermined time. The 2nd-color print information is temporarily stored into the 2nd memory consisting of an RAM or buffer memory and is read out therefrom after the print of the 1st-color print information. With the apparatus, the number of access reading times is reduced and the access timings for the memories can be easily adjusted by the single operation.

A printing system includes a host computer and a printer. The host computer includes a memory which store process steps that are executable by a processor, and a processor. The processor executes the process steps stored in the memory (1) to divide encoded image data in a page of encoded image data into blocks, each block having a size which is less than a storage capacity of a buffer on a printer, and (2) to transmit the blocks of encoded image data to the printer. The printer includes a memory which stores process steps that are executable by a processor, and a processor. The processor executes the process steps stored in the memory (1) to store a predetermined amount of encoded image data in a buffer, (2) to control a printer engine to print images based on the encoded image data stored in the buffer, and (3) to store additional encoded image data, including blocks of the encoded image data, in the buffer in place of the encoded image data for which images have been printed.

A method of fabricating a silicon-based thin-film photoelectric conversion device, where a plasma CVD process is used to deposit a polycrystalline photoelectric conversion layer. During the deposition of the photoelectric conversion layer, the temperature of the underlying layer is less than 550° C., the pressure in the plasma chamber is more than 5 Torr, and the ratio of the flow rates of a hydrogen gas and a silane-type gas is more than 50. In addition, one of the following operations is carried out during the deposition to change the relevant parameters between the start and end of the deposition. First, the distance between the plasma discharge electrodes is increased gradually or in steps. Second, the pressure of the reaction chamber is increased gradually or in steps. Third, the flow rate of the silane-type gas is increased gradually. Fourth, the plasma discharge power density is reduced gradually or in steps.

When a host computer makes a printer print a document, the driver on the host computer sends character codes of characters that appear for the first time in that document and corresponding character images to the printer in advance, and registers them. After this process, the driver transmits, to the printer, characters in the document to be printed as character codes, and data other than characters as mapped image. The printer maps an image on a page memory, maps characters as images with reference to the registered character codes and character image, and superposes the mapped character images on the image mapped on the page buffer. The printer prints the image on paper. The printer can divide an image into bands, and can map the image in units of bands, in place of pages. With this arrangement, the memory capacity can be reduced, and bands having identical contents or blank bands can be processed as codes.

An image data control apparatus includes a memory for storing image data and a reader for reading the image data from the memory. The reader can operate in a first mode for erasing the image data in association with the reading of the image data from the memory and can operate in a second mode for restoring the read image data in the storage means in association with the reading of the image data from the memory.

A conduit guide is disclosed for attaching bicycle cables or conduits to the bicycle frame. Basically, the conduit guide includes a strap and a retainer. The strap and retainer are designed to secure a bicycle conduit to the bicycle frame without exerting any substantial radial compressive force on the conduits. The strap is preferably a plastic tie-type of band clamp. Of course, other types of band clamps can be utilized. The retainer includes a U-shaped conduit retaining portion and a foot portion. The foot portion includes a first foot section and a second foot section integrally formed at the ends of the leg sections of the conduits retaining portion. A strap receiving recess is formed between the foot portion and the conduit retaining portion to secure the retainer to the bicycle frame without exerting a compressive force on the conduit. In alternate embodiments, a bridge is formed between leg sections for added stability. In selected embodiments, the conduit retaining portion is sized to receive a single conduit, while in other embodiments, the conduit receiving portion is sized to receive a pair of conduits.
