| 20090011604 | PHOTON INDUCED REMOVAL OF COPPER - Preferred embodiments provide a method for removing at least part of a copper comprising layer from a substrate, the substrate comprising at least a copper comprising surface layer. The method comprises in a first reaction chamber converting at least part of the copper comprising surface layer into a copper halide surface layer and in a second reaction chamber removing at least part of the copper halide surface layer by exposing it to a photon comprising ambient, thereby initiating formation of volatile copper halide products. During exposure to the photon comprising ambient, the method furthermore comprises removing the volatile copper halide products from the second reaction chamber to avoid saturation of the volatile copper halide products in the second reaction chamber. The method according to preferred embodiments may be used to pattern copper comprising layers. For example, the method according to preferred embodiments may be used to form copper comprising interconnect structures in a semiconductor device. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090173359 | PHOTON INDUCED CLEANING OF A REACTION CHAMBER - The present invention provides a method for in-situ cleaning of walls of a reaction chamber, e.g. reactive ion etching chamber, to remove contamination, e.g. copper comprising contamination from the walls. The method comprises converting the contamination, e.g. copper comprising contamination into a halide compound, e.g. copper halide compound and exposing the halide compound, e.g. copper halide compound to a photon comprising ambient, thereby initiating formation of volatile halide products, e.g. volatile copper halide products. The method furthermore comprises removing the volatile halide products, e.g. volatile copper halide products from the reaction chamber to avoid saturation of the volatile halide products, e.g. volatile copper halide products in the reaction chamber in order to avoid re-deposition of the volatile halide products, e.g. volatile copper halide products to the walls of the reaction chamber. | 07-09-2009 |

| 20100083233 | Symbolic Runtime Checking of Quantified Contracts - An extension of symbolic execution for programs involving contracts with quantifiers over large and potentially unbounded domains is described. Symbolic execution is used to generate, from a program, concrete test cases that exhibit mismatches between the program code and its contracts with quantifiers. Quantifiers are instantiated using symbolic values encountered during a set of exhibited runs. In this setting, quantifier instantiation is limited to values supplied to or produced by a symbolic execution. Quantifier instantiation is controlled by performing a matching algorithm that uses run-time values of input and program variables in order to guide and limit the set of quantifier instantiations. With a sufficient set of instances, test cases are derived that directly witness limitations of the auxiliary assertions. | 04-01-2010 |
