    Abstract: A light activated switching device is disclosed in which the receipt of a light signal is used to switch a light beam between two output ports. The input light beam is reflected from an interface between two regions having different indices of refraction when the light signal is present. The reflected light beam then exits through the first output port. In the absence of the light signal, the two regions have the same index of refraction, and the light beam passes through both regions and exits through the second output port.

    Abstract: A light activated AND gate is disclosed which generates a light signal at a first output port in response to the simultaneous presence of light signals at an input port and a control port. With a light signal present at the control port, a light beam at the input port is reflected from an interface between two regions having different indices of refraction, and the reflected light beam then exits through a first output port. In the absence of a light signal at the control port, the two regions of the switching device have the same index of refraction, and the light beam at the input port passes through both regions and exits through a second output port.

    Abstract: An improved ferroelectric FET structure in which the ferroelectric layer is doped to reduce retention loss. A ferroelectric FET according to the present invention includes a semiconductor layer having first and second contacts thereon, the first and second contacts being separated from one another. The ferroelectric FET also includes a bottom electrode and a ferroelectric layer which is sandwiched between the semiconductor layer and the bottom electrode. The ferroelectric layer is constructed from a perovskite structure of the chemical composition ABO3 wherein the B site comprises first and second elements and a dopant element that has an oxidation state greater than +4 in sufficient concentration to impede shifts in the resistance measured between the first and second contacts with time. The ferroelectric FET structure preferably comprises Pb in the A-site. The first and second elements are preferably Zr and Ti, respectively. The preferred B-site dopants are Niobium, Tantalum, and Tungsten at concentrations between 1% and 8%.

    Abstract: The sensing array detects an image by measuring the changes in the dielectric constant of individual capacitors in a rectangular array of capacitors. The present invention avoids the use of isolation transistors to eliminate the effects of other capacitors in the array when measuring the capacitance of a given capacitor in the array. During the measurement of any given capacitor in the array, the present invention maintains a zero potential difference across the capacitors that are not being measured, thereby eliminating any interference that might be caused by these capacitors.
