Laser irradiation method, laser irradiation apparatus, and method for manufacturing semiconductor device

When the CW laser oscillator is employed in the manufacturing process of the semiconductor device, it is expected to obtain the device of high performance. However, the CW oscillator provides only a small beam spot and forms an inferior crystalline region when it is scanned on the semiconductor film. It is necessary to minimize such an inferior crystalline region because it gives a problem in terms of high integration of the semiconductor element. In view of the problem, the present invention is to form a long crystalline region as suppressing the formation of the inferior crystalline region by irradiating the fundamental wave with the harmonic supplementarily (refer to FIG. 1). The present invention also includes a constitution in which a part having high energy density in the fundamental wave is irradiated to a part having low energy density in the harmonic.

Parallel forward path cartesian feedback loop and loop filter with switchable order for cartesian feedback loops

A communication device having an RF power amplifier stage with a Cartesian feedback loop is provided. The loop has forward paths whose outputs are combined to form an output signal that is fed back to a single feedback path. Each forward path has a common path with a filter that filters the overall loop response and a unique split path. The main and auxiliary split paths have a power amplifier and carry signals respectively of lower and higher frequencies. The auxiliary amplifier is faster than the main amplifier. Different phases of the carrier signal are used during upconversion such that the overall phase response through the split paths is equal. Instability recovery problems introduced by higher-order loop filters are mitigated by baseband loop filters with switchable order. Upon detecting instability, the loop filter order is reduced and is subsequently increased after eliminating the unstable operation.

Positive electrode for non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery and non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery

In a positive electrode active material layer, 80% by weight or more of the total amount of a positive electrode active material is in the form of primary particles, and a conductive coating layer is provided on the surfaces of the primary particles. This sufficiently suppresses the collapse of the active material itself associated with repeated charge and discharge and the changes in volume of the active material layer associated with the collapse, without the need of increasing the content of conductive agent in the positive electrode active material layer. This particularly prevents part of the positive electrode active material particles from being isolated from the electrically conductive network in the positive electrode active material. As a result, the conductive network firmly formed among the primary particles is maintained, and therefore, both the output characteristics and the life characteristic can be improved to a high degree, and a higher output power and a longer life of the battery can be achieved.
