20090098490 | Radiation-Sensitive, Wet Developable Bottom Antireflective Coating Compositions and Their Applications in Semiconductor Manufacturing - The present invention is directed to novel radiation-sensitive, wet developable bottom antireflective coating (DBARC) compositions and their use in semiconductor device manufacturing. The DBARC compositions contain a photoacid generator that produces a photoacid upon exposure to activating radiation. In a photolithographic imaging process, the relatively strong photoacid reduces or eliminates scumming. Further, the relatively large size of the photoacid limits its diffusion through the DBARC, thus minimizing or preventing undercut. The inventive method also limits diffusion of the photoacid by controlling the temperature of the post-exposure baking step. Use of the DBARC compositions with a photoresist in photolithography results in highly resolved features having essentially vertical profiles and no scumming and no undercut, which is critical as microelectronics and semiconductor components become increasingly miniaturized. | 04-16-2009 |

20130186994 | SELF-COMPENSATING FILAMENT TENSION CONTROL DEVICE WITH EDDY CURRENT BRAKING - A self-compensating tension control device for regulating the payout of filamentary material from a spool includes a fixed support and a spindle assembly rotatably carrying the spool. A tension force applied to the filamentary material, in opposition to a biasing force, moves the spindle assembly linearly in relation to the fixed support. An eddy current braking system includes a conductive member rotatable with the spindle assembly and a magnetic member carried by the fixed support. The spindle assembly and the conductive member move linearly toward a side-by-side relationship with the magnetic member when the tension force applied to the filamentary material is reduced and unable to overcome the biasing force. Linear movement of the spindle assembly and the associated conductive member can be obtained by either a straight line mechanism or a linear ball bushing mechanism. A supplemental brake may also be used. | 07-25-2013 |
20130270382 | SELF-COMPENSATING FILAMENT TENSION CONTROL DEVICE WITH FRICTION BRAKING - A self-compensating tension control device for regulating the withdrawal of filamentary material from a spool includes a fixed support that maintains a cam surface and a spindle assembly rotatably carrying the spool. A tension force applied to the filamentary material, in opposition to a biasing force, moves the spindle assembly linearly in relation to the fixed support. A braking mechanism includes a brake drum rotatable with the spindle assembly, a brake shoe adapted to engage the brake drum and a rocker arm that engages the cam surface. When the tension force applied to the filamentary material is reduced and unable to overcome the biasing force, the cam roller engages the cam surface and causes the brake shoe to generate a braking force on the brake drum. Withdrawal of the filamentary material at a regular rate occurs when the biasing force is balanced with the tension force. | 10-17-2013 |
20140008481 | SELF-COMPENSATING FILAMENT TENSION CONTROL DEVICE WITH FRICTION BAND BRAKING - A self-compensating tension control device for regulating the withdrawal of filamentary material from a spool includes a fixed support that maintains an inverted cam surface and a spindle assembly rotatably carrying the spool. A tension force applied to the filamentary material, in opposition to a biasing force, moves the spindle assembly linearly in relation to the fixed support. A braking mechanism includes a brake drum rotatable with the spindle assembly, a friction band adapted to engage the brake drum and a rocker arm that engages the cam surface. When the tension force applied to the filamentary material is reduced and unable to overcome the biasing force, the cam roller engages the cam surface and causes the friction band to generate a braking force on the brake drum. | 01-09-2014 |
