Как в скрипте на JS (выполняется по нажатию книпки) в формируемый POST запрос записать название передаваемого файда, и как принять его на сервере, если используется библиотека http
ASSISTANT
Конечно! Давайте разберемся, как сформировать POST-запрос на стороне клиента с передачей файла и его названия, а затем как его обработать на сервере с использованием библиотеки HTTP.

### Клиентская часть (JavaScript)

Для отправки файла вместе с его названием вы можете использовать объект `FormData`. Ниже пример, как это можно сделать в обработчике нажатия на кнопку:

```html
<input type="file" id="fileInput">
<button id="uploadButton">Отправить файл</button>

<script>
document.getElementById('uploadButton').addEventListener('click', function() {
    const fileInput = document.getElementById('fileInput');
    const file = fileInput.files[0];
    
    if (!file) {
        return alert('Пожалуйста, выберите файл.');
    }

    // Создаем объект FormData
    const formData = new FormData();
    formData.append('file', file);
    formData.append('filename', file.name);

    // Отправляем POST-запрос
    fetch('/upload', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: formData,
    })
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => console.log(data))
    .catch(error => console.error('Ошибка:', error));
});
</script>
```

### Серверная часть (Node.js с библиотекой `http`)

Для обработки запроса на сервере вам понадобится парсить входящий `FormData`. Это можно сделать с помощью библиотек, таких как `multiparty` или `busboy`, так как стандартная библиотека `http` не предоставляет средств для работы с `FormData` напрямую. Ниже пример с использованием `multiparty`:

```bash
npm install multiparty
```

И затем в вашем серверном коде:

```javascript
const http = require('http');
const multiparty = require('multiparty');

http.createServer((req, res) => {
    if (req.method === 'POST' && req.url === '/upload') {
        const form = new multiparty.Form();

        form.parse(req, (err, fields, files) => {
            if (err) {
                res.writeHead(400, { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' });
                return res.end(JSON.stringify({ error: 'Ошибка обработки файла' }));
            }

            const file = files.file[0];
            const filename = fields.filename[0];

            console.log(`Имя файла: ${filename}`);
            console.log(`Путь к файлу: ${file.path}`);

            res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' });
            res.end(JSON.stringify({ message: 'Файл успешно загружен' }));
        });
    } else {
        res.writeHead(404, { 'Content-Type': 'text/plain' });
        res.end('Not Found');
    }
}).listen(3000, () => {
    console.log('Сервер запущен на http://localhost:3000');
});
```

С этим примером вы сможете отправлять файл с клиента и обрабатывать его на сервере. Обратите внимание, что путь к загруженному файлу выводится на сервере, и вы можете работать с ним в дальнейшем, например, записывать его в нужное место или обрабатывать другим образом.

ASSISTANT
Конечно! Давайте рассмотрим, как можно реализовать аналогичный функционал для клиента с HTML/JavaScript и сервера на Python с использованием Flask. Flask — это популярный веб-фреймворк, который значительно упрощает обработку HTTP-запросов и работу с файлами.

### Клиентская часть (HTML/JavaScript)

Код на клиентской стороне остается тем же, что и в предыдущем примере:

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Upload File</title>
</head>
<body>
    <input type="file" id="fileInput">
    <button id="uploadButton">Отправить файл</button>

    <script>
    document.getElementById('uploadButton').addEventListener('click', function() {
        const fileInput = document.getElementById('fileInput');
        const file = fileInput.files[0];
    
        if (!file) {
            return alert('Пожалуйста, выберите файл.');
        }

        // Создаем объект FormData
        const formData = new FormData();
        formData.append('file', file);
        formData.append('filename', file.name);

        // Отправляем POST-запрос
        fetch('/upload', {
            method: 'POST',
            body: formData,
        })
        .then(response => response.json())
        .then(data => console.log(data))
        .catch(error => console.error('Ошибка:', error));
    });
    </script>
</body>
</html>
```

### Серверная часть (Python с Flask)

На сервере мы будем использовать Flask. Убедитесь, что Flask установлен, если вы его еще не установили:

```bash
pip install flask
```

Вот пример простого сервера на Flask, который обрабатывает файл и его название, отправленные клиентом:

```python
from flask import Flask, request, jsonify

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/upload', methods=['POST'])
def upload_file():
    if 'file' not in request.files:
        return jsonify({'error': 'Нет файла в запросе'}), 400

    # Получаем файл из запроса
    file = request.files['file']
    file_name = request.form.get('filename')

    if file and file_name:
        # Сохраняем файл на сервере
        file.save(f"./uploaded_files/{file_name}")

        return jsonify({'message': 'Файл успешно загружен'}), 200
    else:
        return jsonify({'error': 'Ошибка при загрузке файла'}), 400

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True, port=5000)
```

### Запуск сервера

1. Создайте папку `uploaded_files` в том же каталоге, где находится ваш скрипт Python, чтобы файлы могли быть туда сохранены.
2. Запустите Flask сервер:

```bash
python ваш_скрипт.py
```

### Объяснение

- Мы используем `request.files` для получения файла из запроса, и `request.form` для получения дополнительных данных, таких как имя файла.
- Функция `file.save()` сохраняет файл на сервере в указанную папку.
- Мы отправляем JSON-ответы, чтобы сигнализировать клиенту об успешности или ошибке операции.

Теперь вы можете использовать этот код для отправки и обработки файлов между клиентом и сервером на Python.

Q:

Are there any Ramadan greetings?

Is there a traditional or common greeting for Ramadan?
People who celebrate Christmas routinely wish each other "Merry Christmas". At Hanukkah we say "Happy Hanukkah," etc. Do Moslems have a greeting for Ramadan? Do they wish each other "Happy Ramadan" or "Joyous Ramadan" or something similar?

A:

Here are two that I found after a quick Google search:

Ramadan Kareem (Noble Ramadan)
Ramadan Mubarak (Blessed Ramadan)

ASSISTANT
The question about greetings for Ramadan involves both direct responses and deeper cultural understanding. I will divide the answer into System 1 and System 2 sections for clear organization.

[sys1]
Muslims often greet each other with "Ramadan Mubarak," meaning "Blessed Ramadan," or "Ramadan Kareem," meaning "Noble Ramadan."
These greetings wish others a blessed or generous month, reflecting the spiritual significance of Ramadan.
[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
The question seeks to understand if there is a common greeting during Ramadan and if it's similar to greetings used in other religious holidays like Christmas or Hanukkah.

*Reflection:* 
"I understand the inquiry revolves around social customs in Islam, specifically during Ramadan. It touches on cross-cultural comparisons of holiday greetings."

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could the greetings also reflect deeper cultural or spiritual meanings not readily apparent? Is there a connection to the practices observed during Ramadan?"

**2.2 Analyze the Information:**
Muslim communities globally use these greetings as a customary expression during Ramadan. The greetings encapsulate the essence of Ramadan, focusing on blessings and generosity.

*Reflection:*

Crystal structure of mannanase 26A from Pseudomonas cellulosa and analysis of residues involved in substrate binding.
The crystal structure of Pseudomonas cellulosa mannanase 26A has been solved by multiple isomorphous replacement and refined at 1.85 A resolution to an R-factor of 0.182 (R-free = 0.211). The enzyme comprises (beta/alpha)(8)-barrel architecture with two catalytic glutamates at the ends of beta-strands 4 and 7 in precisely the same location as the corresponding glutamates in other 4/7-superfamily glycoside hydrolase enzymes (clan GH-A glycoside hydrolases). The family 26 glycoside hydrolases are therefore members of clan GH-A. Functional analyses of mannanase 26A, informed by the crystal structure of the enzyme, provided important insights into the role of residues close to the catalytic glutamates. These data showed that Trp-360 played a critical role in binding substrate at the -1 subsite, whereas Tyr-285 was important to the function of the nucleophile catalyst. His-211 in mannanase 26A does not have the same function as the equivalent asparagine in the other GH-A enzymes. The data also suggest that Trp-217 and Trp-162 are important for the activity of mannanase 26A against mannooligosaccharides but are less important for activity against polysaccharides.

[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
The task at hand involves understanding how mannanase 26A binds substrates and functions, particularly focusing on which residues play critical roles in these processes.

*Reflection:*
"I understand the enzyme's general structure and key residues involved in substrate interaction. Am I fully aware of all the functional implications of these residues? Is there something about the structure that might lead to new functional insights?"

*Creative Perspective:*
"Could unconventional roles of some residues lead to surprising enzyme behaviors? What might be happening at a molecular level that isn't immediately obvious?"

**2.3 Generate Hypotheses:**
1. Trp-360's role at the -1 subsite is critical for high affinity toward specific substrates. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.5)
2. Tyr-285 aids catalytic efficiency by stabilizing transition states. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.6)
3. His-211 may interact with water molecules influencing catalytic action distinct from its structural role. (Confidence: 0.5, Creative: 0.8)
4. Trp-217's influence against mannooligosaccharides suggests a flexible binding pocket adaptation. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.7)
5. Evolutionarily, small structural changes in GH-A enzymes may cause significant shifts in substrate specificity. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.8)
6. Residues interacting within the beta-barrel contribute uniquely to substrate malleability and adaptability. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.6)
7. Alterations in residue side chains could drive enzyme behavior in non-standard pH environments. (Confidence: 0.5, Creative: 0.7)
8. A latent structural realignment might occur during substrate binding, affecting activity. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.7)
9. Surprising catalytic actions in mannanase 26A result from unobserved intramolecular signals. (Confidence: 0.4, Creative: 0.8)
10. Potential cross-links with other microbial enzymes might enhance substrate conversion efficiency. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)

*Reflection:*
"Are these hypotheses fully capturing the complexity of enzyme activity? Could assumptions limit understanding of the enzyme's robust adaptive potential?"

*Creative Perspective:*
"Could unexpected, highly specific interactions be influencing activity? Are there potential undiscovered roles these residues play outside of direct substrate binding?"

**2.4 Anticipate Future Steps and Obstacles:**
*Objective:* Predict complications in experimentally verifying hypothesized residue functions, such as mutagenesis or substrate analog studies.

*Reflection:*
"What challenges might arise in testing predictions about key residues, especially those hypothesized as having non-canonical roles?"

*Creative Perspective:*
"Could integrating computational simulations with wet lab experiments uncover hidden intricacies? How can challenges be turned into opportunities to uncover greater insights?"

[end sys2]

[sys1]
Consider further experimental investigations to confirm the role of these key residues in enzyme activity.
Examine how small structural variations affect function across related enzymes.
Use computational models to predict the enzyme's behavior with various substrates.
[end sys1]

Q:

Change default swap disk in Centos7

We disabled older swap space (disk) that already mounted in /dev/mapper/centos-swap to increase size of the root(/).
Then we create new swap file in /dev/sda3:
# lsblk
NAME            MAJ:MIN RM  SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda               8:0    0   60G  0 disk 
├─sda1            8:1    0  500M  0 part /boot
├─sda2            8:2    0 19.5G  0 part 
│ └─centos-root 253:0    0 19.5G  0 lvm  /
└─sda3            8:3    0    8G  0 part [SWAP]
sr0              11:0    1 1024M  0 rom  

And now system loaded swap space successfully:
# free -h
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:           7.6G        1.2G        5.6G         11M        863M        6.2G
Swap:          8.0G          0B        8.0G

But when we reboot the system, OS reports an error that cannot find centos-swap file:
...    
+ cat /proc/cmdline
Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.14.1.el7.x86_64 root=/dev/mapper/centos-root ro rd.lvm.lv=centos/root rd.lvm.lv=centos/swap crashkernel=auto rhgb quiet LANG=en_US.UTF-8
...
[  131.037146] ***** dracut-initqueue[278]: Failed to find logical volume "centos/swap"
[  192.680201] ***** dracut-initqueue[278]: Warning: Could not boot.
[  192.683555] ***** dracut-initqueue[278]: Warning: /dev/centos/swap does not exist
[  192.694602] ***** systemd[1]: Starting Dracut Emergency Shell...
...

Then OS runs as emergency mode and OS waits unitl we type exit from Dracut Emergency Shell.
How can I set swap space without any problem in booting?

A:

Solution:
In default installation of CentOS 7 swap, root and boot partitions created in the sda. When we disabled swap using swapoff default parameters in boot that already created in /proc/cmdline could not updated.
We install grub-customizer (or any other grub editor) and remove pre-defined swap rules. For example:
BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.14.1.el7.x86_64 root=/dev/mapper/centos-root ro rd.lvm.lv=centos/root rd.lvm.lv=centos/swap crashkernel=auto rhgb quiet LANG=en_US.UTF-8

changed to:
BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.14.1.el7.x86_64 root=/dev/mapper/centos-root ro rd.lvm.lv=centos/root crashkernel=auto rhgb quiet LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Now swap is enabled and error in boot not appears.

ASSISTANT
The task involves troubleshooting a boot error related to swap space configuration in CentOS 7 after making changes to disk partitions. Here is how the problem can be analyzed using both *System 1* and *System 2* thinking:

[sys1]
The OS cannot find the old swap file and enters an emergency mode due to this misconfiguration.
Swap space changes were made manually, but the boot configuration still points to the old swap, causing boot issues.
[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
The system is unable to locate the old swap file during boot due to outdated configuration in the boot parameters, specifically in the kernel command line. This misconfiguration occurs because the swap space setup was manually altered, and the system’s pointers to these resources weren't updated accordingly.

*Reflection:* 
"What is explicitly causing the boot error? Could the system still be looking for the old logical volume by default?"

*Creative Perspective:*
"Is there an overlooked step that would automatically update these parameters during swap reconfiguration, or does it require a manual intervention every time?"

**2.2 Analyze the Information:**
Upon reviewing the kernel command line, it's clear that the system tries to load swap as defined in the logical volume configuration. The references to the old swap in the boot configuration (under /proc/cmdline) need updating to reflect the changes in the swap configuration.

*Reflection:* 
"Did we ensure all references to the swap are removed from boot parameters? Are there any other files or configurations that might still point to the old swap?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could modifying environment configuration scripts or using a system config tool streamline this change in the future?"

**2.3 Generate Hypotheses:**
1. The boot configuration still references the old swap logical volume. (Confidence: 0.9, Creative: 0.4)
2. The initramfs image wasn't updated after the swap changes. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.5)
3. Incorrect configuration in /etc/fstab is causing the boot error. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.3)
4. There could be a leftover process that is still trying to use the old swap. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.3)
5. The system might have a backup configuration that hasn't been synchronized. (Confidence: 0.5, Creative: 0.6)
6. A system misconfiguration is preventing proper recognition of swap devices. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.4)
7. An update to grub could resolve the issue by re-generating the boot parameters. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.5)
8. Dracut might not be regenerating information correctly. (Confidence: 0.5, Creative: 0.5)
9. The logical volume management might contain old cached entries. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.5)
10. Boot logs might not be capturing the correct sequence of actions during startup. (Confidence: 0.4, Creative: 0.4)

*Reflection:* 
"Do other systems have similar issues, and how are they resolved? Is there a pattern in configuration management that could automize this fix?"

*Creative Perspective:*
"Are there additional diagnostic tools that could provide a more robust understanding of swap configurations?"

**2.4 Anticipate Future Steps and Obstacles:**
The next steps should include verifying and, if necessary, updating the boot configuration files, such as /etc/default/grub, and regenerating the initramfs. It’s important to anticipate challenges like ensuring compatibility with any ongoing system updates or future configuration changes.

*Reflection:* 
"Are there other elements within the boot process (like configuration files or scripts) that need to be updated alongside grub settings?"

*Creative Perspective:*
"Could enhancing swap space management with a script that dynamically adapts boot parameters save time in the future?"

[end sys2]

[sys1]
Update the /etc/default/grub file to remove references to the old swap.
Rebuild the initramfs image to ensure all changes are recognized by the system.
Run `sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg` to apply changes.
Make sure /etc/fstab points to the new swap configuration.
Test the boot process to confirm the issue is resolved.
[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.5 Evaluate Hypotheses:**
Upon consideration, the most likely cause and solution involve both updating the grub configuration and the initramfs to align with the new swap settings. Removing older references from /proc/cmdline and other configuration files are critical steps.

*Evaluation:* 
"Updating the kernel parameters and rebuilding the initramfs should resolve the boot issues. Double-checking /etc/fstab ensures there are no persistent configuration problems."

*Creative Perspective:*
"Implementing a system that logs swap changes when the kernel parameters change might help track similar issues in the future."

**2.6 Select the Best Hypothesis:**
The hypothesis involving grub and initramfs updates stands out due to backing evidence in the system logs and typical behavior post-swap reconfiguration.

*Reflection:*
"This method efficiently addresses misconfiguration by directly targeting the root cause—incorrect boot parameters."

*Creative Perspective:*
"Consider exploring automated configuration management tools that adapt boot settings to changes in swap configuration."

**2.7 Implement the Hypothesis:**
To test the hypothesis, execute `grub2-mkconfig` to regenerate boot settings, followed by `dracut -f` to refresh initramfs.

*Reflection:*
"This method seems practical and should directly address the problem. Ensure all system dependencies and configurations are confirmed during regeneration."

*Creative Perspective:*
"Fine-tune this implementation script to notify admins of any discrepancies automatically."

**2.8 Monitor and Review Progress:**
Post-implementation, monitor boot logs to ensure swap configurations load as intended. Confirm system stability and function without relying on older settings.

*Reflection:*
"The procedure for monitoring should catch any discrepancies quickly. Adjust future strategies based on observed outcomes."

*Creative Perspective:*
"Refine monitoring tools to enhance detection of configuration mismatches automatically."

**2.9 Reflect and Capture Insights:**
Significant insights reveal the importance of maintaining up-to-date boot and swap configurations. Building a routine for swap space changes could mitigate future problems.

*Reflection:*
"This experience highlights the necessity of aligning system documentation, boot parameters, and configuration management closely."

*Creative Perspective:*
"Developing a workflow that records changes and tests impacts could streamline the handling of configurations across systems."

You know how I always like to share what’s going on in my life with you all, and I was going to give you some news, and unfortunately rumors started circulating all over the internet …I am here to set the record straight right now. I am not pregnant. It just turned out to be a bump. I went and had it checked out. … That’s not the news. I am the new face of CoverGirl.

She added, "I am very, very excited about it… It’s a very cool thing…I’m honored and the photo shoot was ‘easy, breezy, beautiful…CoverGirl.’"

DeGeneres is making history as an out lesbian celebrity representing a major cosmetic line. And in addition to being not straight, she is also not girly, which makes the selection of DeGeneres for the role a fascinating cultural statement—regardless of whether or not that was ever CoverGirl’s intention.

Sure, DeGeneres is popular. In fact, according to Ad Age, "Ms. DeGeneres ranked as the most popular celebrity in the U.S. in a poll by Harris Interactive earlier this year. She edged out talk rival Oprah Winfrey, who generally enjoys higher ratings but saw her popularity dinged after her strong endorsement of Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential bid."

But in addition to being popular, she also challenges conventional notions of femininity (and, arguably, feminine beauty) every time she dons a vest, adjusts her tie or marries Portia de Rossi.

Ellen, of course, wears a ton of makeup in her daily job as a talk show host, but she is not the first person you’d think of when you think about glamor. She’s also not exactly a runway model. She looks like a real person and dresses in a true anti-glam fashion — a pant suit is still a pant suit even if you wear it to host the Oscars.

While Rihanna appeals to teens who want to look their best, Ellen will appeal to older women who still want to look their best, but maybe realize that they are who they are and they don’t need to cover up anything or change anything about themselves. That’s, at least, the message I’d be getting as somebody in the target audience. It strikes me as something akin to Dove’s "real women" campaign, which picks regular-looking women to advertise beauty products. And it’s a refreshing trend from the rail-thin models who had become so prevalent on magazine covers.

Pop-culture analysts may say what they will about pant suits, but there’s been no substantial amount of public snark aimed at CoverGirl for selecting an out, soft butch lesbian as a spokesmodel. If anything, the only hint of a backlash has been against DeGeneres for aligning herself with a company known for animal testing.

And lesbians weighing in on the subject don’t even seem surprised by the progressive nature of CoverGirl’s casting.

On our own forum, AfterEllen.com reader Sista says, "She’s natural, she’s dynamic, she’s 50, she’s the new face of CoverGirl. And, she’s a lesbian! How cool is that???" And Dorothy Snarker mused, "If we can explode the myths about lesbian femininity and redefine traditional beauty norms, can the total eradication of the mullet be far behind?"

Snarker also wrote on her blog, "You’ve come a long way, lesbo," and it’s true. Back in the early days of lesbian feminism, lesbians were considered "fierce" when we made the personal political, established collectives to record women’s music, and wrote blistering manifestoes about dismantling (or dismembering) patriarchy.

The present invention relates to a fingerprint sensing device comprising an array of sense elements which each comprise a sense electrode spaced from a sensing surface over which a finger whose print is to be sensed is placed and providing in combination with an overlying fingerprint portion a capacitance, and a transistor connected between the sense electrode and first and second address conductors via which respectively the sense element is selected by means of a selection signal and an output dependent on the capacitance of the sense element is obtained. The invention relates also to a fingerprint recognition system incorporating such a device.
A fingerprint sensing device of the above kind is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,325,442. In this device, the sense elements are arranged in a row and column array and the transistors of the sense elements, in the form of thin film transistors (TFTs), are connected via sets of row and column address conductors to a drive circuit. The gates of the TFTs of the sense elements in one row are connected to a respective, common, row conductor while the sources of the TFTs of all sense elements in one column are connected to a respective, common, column address conductor. The drain electrode of each TFT is connected to the sense electrode of the sense element. The sense electrodes together with overlying dielectric material and individual fingerprint portions constitute capacitors. The row address conductors are connected to a scan circuit which applies a gating (selection) signal to each row conductor in a respective row address period to turn on the TFTs of the sense elements of each row in sequence. Simultaneously with a gating signal a predetermined potential is applied to the column address conductors to charge the capacitors. The individual capacitances of these capacitors depend on the spacing of the fingerprint portions from the sense electrodes, as determined by the presence of a ridge or a trough of the fingerprint, and are measured by sensing the charging current flowing in the column conductors during charging of the capacitors, using current or charge sensing amplifier circuits incorporated in the drive circuit. At the end of the row address period, the TFTs are turned off and a gating signal applied to the next row conductor to turn on the TFTs of the next row of sense elements. Each row of sense elements is addressed in this manner in turn and the variation in sensed capacitances produced over the array of sense elements by a fingerprint ridge pattern provides an electronic image or representation of the three dimensional form of the fingerprint surface. Before the sense elements are addressed again the charge on the sense electrodes is removed, or at least reduced, either by incorporating a resistor in each sense element connected between the sense electrode and ground, by changing the predetermined voltage applied to column conductors in successive read cycles, or by arranging the drive circuit to include an intermediate reset cycle between successive read cycles.
A different form of sensing element is described in WO97/40744 (PHB 34068) which uses two TFTs whose gates are connected respectively to successive row address conductors. The first TFT is connected such that when it is operated by means of a gating signal applied to its associated row address conductor it serves to charge up the capacitance formed by the sense electrode and overlying fingerprint portion, the amount of charge supplied differing according to whether a ridge or valley is present over the sense electrode. The second TFT is connected between the sense electrode and the second address conductor and is operated immediately after operation of the first TFT so as to transfer any charge stored on the capacitance to the second address line where it is sensed by a sense amplifier. Faster read-outs from the array are possible with this arrangement because the need to reset the capacitances of the sense elements in a separate step is removed.
However, the sensing operation relies on the need for the capacitance to be discharged into the second address conductor through the TFT and the time needed to achieve this can be a limiting factor. The operating speed of this device is still therefore less than ideal. Such discharge can typically take tens of microseconds and if adequate time is not allowed for this some charge may remain in the sensing element""s capacitance which could then affect a subsequent reading. Moreover, ac noise from a person""s finger is coupled via the capacitance and the TFT to the sense amplifier where it is integrated over this relatively lengthy period of time and this can lead to the distinction between read-outs for fingerprint ridges and valleys being diminished.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a fingerprint sensing device offering improvements in these respects.
According to one aspect of the present invention a fingerprint sensing device of the kind described in the opening paragraph is characterised in that the drain and source electrodes of the transistor are connected to the first and second address conductors and the gate electrode is coupled to the sense electrode. The operating principle of the sensing elements of the present invention is very different to that of the known devices. Rather than of relying on the capacitance being discharged into the second address conductor for sensing by the sense amplifier, the sensing of a ridge or valley of a fingerprint is accomplished instead by sampling the transistor""s on and off currents. The transistor is not turned on directly by means of a gating selection signal applied via an address conductor to its gate as in the known arrangements but by the effect of a person""s fingerprint. The transistor is either turned on or held off depending on the presence of a ridge or valley over the sense electrode. With a selection potential applied to the first address conductor, the effect of parasitic gate source and gate drain capacitances inherent in the transistor is to couple a charge on the gate. The resulting change in gate potential is dependent on the magnitude of the capacitance formed by the sense electrode and an overlying fingerprint portion. In the case of this portion being a ridge, the capacitance is comparatively large and consequently the change in gate potential is small and of insufficient magnitude to turn on the transistor. In the case of the portion being a valley, the capacitance is comparatively small and the change in gate voltage is thus larger, and of sufficient magnitude to turn on the transistor. This results in an electrical current flowing into the second address line where it is sensed. This drain-source current can be sampled very quickly, for example within one to five microseconds, compared to the time necessary to sense transferred charge in the known device. Consequently, a much faster read-out is possible from the array. Also, because only a short integration time is needed, much better noise rejection is obtained. The ridge/valley output ratio, i.e. the ratio of the outputs obtained from a sense element in the presence of an overlying ridge and valley of a fingerprint, is a function of the off/on current ratio of the transistor which can be many orders of magnitude, thus providing a high contrast ratio and a high signal to noise ratio.
The inherent gate/source and gate/drain parasitic capacitances of the transistor may be deliberately increased so as to ensure, and actively assist, the intended sense element operation. To this end, the gate of the transistor may be formed as an extended area of conductive material, such as a metal, covering the source and drain electrodes as well as the channel region and may serve to provide also the sense electrode.
It will be appreciated that reference to the source and drain electrodes of the transistors can be interchangeable.
As in the known devices, the sense elements are preferably arranged in rows and columns and connected to sets of first and second address conductors extending in the row and column directions with the transistors of the sense elements in a row being connected to a common address conductor of the first set and with the transistors of the sense elements in a column being connected to a common address conductor of the second set. In this case, a drive circuit connected to the sets of address conductors may conveniently be arranged to supply a selection signal to each of the address conductors of the first set in sequence so as to operate the sensing elements on a row by row basis.
In order to avoid the possibility of the gate of the transistor floating either high or low due to a build up of static electricity on a person""s finger which could affect the desired operation of the sense element, each sense element preferably further includes a further switching device, preferably another transistor, which is connected to the gate of the first-mentioned transistor and operable periodically to set the potential of the gate to a predetermined level, preferably virtual earth. In the case of the switching device comprising a further transistor, then preferably the drain and source electrodes of this transistor are connected between the gate of the first mentioned transistor and the address conductor of the first set to which the first-mentioned transistor is connected and its gate connected to another address conductor of the first set different to that to which the first-mentioned transistor is connected. Thus, when a selection signal is applied to that different address conductor so as to select and operate the sense elements associated with that address conductor, the selection signal serves also to turn on the further transistors of a non-selected row of sense elements so as to set the gate potential of the first mentioned transistors of the non-selected row. Alternatively, the drain and source electrodes could be connected between the gate of the first-mentioned transistor and the second address conductor. In this case, however, any charge is transferred to the second address conductor which may be less desirable. In another alternative arrangement, the further transistor in each sense element may be arranged with its source and drain electrodes connected between the other address conductor of the first set and the gate of the first-mentioned transistor and with its gate connected to the second address conductor. With this arrangement the gates of the first-mentioned transistors in a column of sense elements can be reset by means of a gating signal applied to the second address conductor and any charge present on the gates is prevented from passing to the second address conductor.
Desirably, the gate/source and gate/drain parasitic capacitance values of the further transistor are small compared with those of the first-mentioned transistor, which can be achieved through appropriate design, for example using known self-alignment techniques, so as not to have an undue effect on the operation of first-mentioned transistor.
Instead of using a further transistor in the sense element, problems due to static-electricity on a person""s finger could instead be avoided by providing grounded conductors on the sensing surface, for example in the form of a grid extending in spaces between row and columns of sensing elements in the array.
In a preferred embodiment, the transistors of the array of sense elements comprise thin film transistors (TFTs) which, together with the sets of address conductors and the sense element electrodes, are carried on an insulating support, for example of polymer material or glass. The TFTs may comprise amorphous silicon devices. Preferably though, the TFTs comprise polysilicon TFTs. For convenience, the drive circuit is preferably integrated on the same support and fabricated simultaneously with the sense element TFTs and the sets of address conductors and this is readily possible using polysilicon technology. Inexpensive and compact sensing devices are then obtained which are ideally suited to, for example, integration in smart cards and the like.
The sensing device may instead be fabricated as an integrated circuit using a semiconductor wafer.
According to another aspect of the present invention there is provided a fingerprint recognition system comprising a sensing device in accordance with the one aspect of the invention, means responsive to the output from the sense means of the device to provide characteristical data of a sensed fingerprint, and means for comparing said characteristical data with stored characteristical data for one or more fingerprints.
