Abstract: A route based analysis system includes, in one version, an infrared spectrometer subsystem configured to produce a spectrum for oil introduced to an oil sample cell. The system displays a route including assets with oil to be inspected. The type of oil used in each asset is determined. For each asset on the route, one or more oil property methods specific to the oil used in the asset are located. The spectrum of each asset's oil is analyzed using specific methods in order to produce oil properties.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a Schottky diode that has a substrate, a drift layer provided over the substrate, and a Schottky layer provided over an active region of the substrate. A junction barrier array is provided in the drift layer just below the Schottky layer. The elements of the junction barrier array are generally doped regions in the drift layer. To increase the depth of these doped regions, individual recesses may be formed in the surface of the drift layer where the elements of the junction barrier array are to be formed. Once the recesses are formed in the drift layer, areas about and at the bottom of the recesses are doped to form the respective elements of the junction barrier array.

Abstract: Elements of an edge termination structure, such as multiple concentric guard rings, are effectively doped regions in a drift layer. To increase the depth of these doped regions, individual recesses may be formed in a surface of the drift layer where the elements of the edge termination structure are to be formed. Once the recesses are formed in the drift layer, these areas about and at the bottom of the recesses are doped to form the respective edge termination elements.
