A method and apparatus that enables a remote application platform the ability to allow any Internet website to receive and play video contributions from its users. A liner layer is subsequently deposited in order to cover the inner capacitor electrode layer in the trench and the uncovered trench wall and thus to form a barrier layer. In one aspect of the present invention, the permanganate and activator form a barrier or coating, composed of manganese oxides and components of the activator that at least partially encapsulates a portion of the contaminant to minimize or prevent migration andor dissolution of the contaminant. In another aspect, the invention relates to a method and apparatus for separating an image into subunits and reading the separate subimages out of the detectors in parallel. The display unit represents, upon generation of the degraded communication quality, a fixed field level instead of the field level corresponding to the intensity of the electric field measured by the electric field measurement section.
