| 20090052498 | THERMOCOUPLE - A thermocouple for measuring temperature at a position adjacent to a substrate being processed in a chemical vapor deposition reactor is provided. The thermocouple includes a sheath having a measuring tip. The thermocouple also includes a support tube disposed within the sheath. The thermocouple further includes first and second wires supported by the support tube. The first and second wires are formed of different metals. A junction is formed between the first and second wires, wherein the junction is located adjacent to a distal end of the support tube. A spring is disposed about a portion of the support tube. The spring is compressed to exert a spring force on the support tube to bias the junction against the measuring tip to maintain the junction in continuous contact with the measuring tip. The spring force is small enough to prevent significant deformation of the junction as well as reducing variation of spring force or junction location from one thermocouple to another. | 02-26-2009 |

| 20100089314 | SUBSTRATE SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR REDUCED AUTODOPING AND BACKSIDE DEPOSITION - A substrate support system comprises a substrate holder having a plurality of passages extending between top and bottom surfaces thereof. The substrate holder supports a peripheral portion of the substrate backside so that a thin gap is formed between the substrate and the substrate holder. A hollow support member provides support to an underside of, and is configured to convey gas upward into one or more of the passages of, the substrate holder. The upwardly conveyed gas flows into the gap between the substrate and the substrate holder. Depending upon the embodiment, the gas then flows either outward and upward around the substrate edge (to inhibit backside deposition of reactant gases above the substrate) or downward through passages of the substrate holder, if any, that do not lead back into the hollow support member (to inhibit autodoping by sweeping out-diffused dopant atoms away from the substrate backside). | 04-15-2010 |

| 20090147819 | CALIBRATION OF TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR SEMICONDUCTOR PROCESSING CHAMBER - Methods and systems for calibrating a temperature control system in a vapor deposition chamber. A temperature sensor senses temperature within a semiconductor processing chamber and generates an output signal. A temperature control system controls a chamber temperature by controlling a heating apparatus based on the output signal. A method includes instructing the control system to target a setpoint temperature, and depositing a layer of material onto a surface in the chamber by a vapor deposition process. A variation of a property of the layer is measured while depositing the layer, the property known to vary cyclically as a thickness of the layer increases. The measured property is allowed to vary cyclically for one or more cycles. If there is a difference between a time period of one or more of the cycles and an expected time period associated with the setpoint temperature, the temperature control system is adjusted based on the difference. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20090280248 | POROUS SUBSTRATE HOLDER WITH THINNED PORTIONS - A substrate support system comprises a substrate holder for supporting a substrate. The substrate holder comprises a central portion sized and shaped to extend beneath most or all of a substrate supported on the substrate holder. The central portion has one or more recesses defining thinned portions of the central portion. The one or more thinned portions may comprise at least about 10% of an upper or lower surface of the central portion. The central portion is formed of a porous material, such as a material having a porosity between about 10-40%, configured to allow gas flow therethrough. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20100107974 | SUBSTRATE HOLDER WITH VARYING DENSITY - A substrate support system comprises a substrate holder for supporting a substrate. The substrate holder comprises an interior portion sized and shaped to extend beneath most or all of a substrate supported on the substrate holder. The substrate holder has mass density that varies, preferably in order to compensate for variations in substrate temperature owing to surface geometry variations of the interior portion, so as to provide a more uniform thermal coupling between the substrate and substrate holder. The substrate holder is preferably configured to be spaced further apart from a substrate at the center than at the outer perimeter. | 05-06-2010 |

| 20110230951 | DEVICE FOR RAPID REPAIR OF BODY CONDUITS - A self-expanding stent-graft provided in a diametrically compacted state for implantation and retained preferably by a constraining sheath, useful for the temporary or permanent repair of injured, partially or entirely transected body conduits including blood vessels. It may be used under direct visualization to quickly stop or substantially reduce loss of blood from such damaged vessels and to quickly re-establish perfusion distal to the injury site. The device would typically be implanted under emergency room conditions but also be used in field situations by trained medical technicians. After an end of the device is inserted into a blood vessel through the injury access, deployment preferably initiates from the device end in a direction moving toward the middle of the length of the device by directionally releasing the constraining sheath. In a preferred embodiment, the two opposing ends of the device are individually deployable from the compacted, small diameter intended for insertion into a vessel, to the larger diameter at which they fit interferably into a portion of the vessel. | 09-22-2011 |
