| 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 |
| 20100190343 | LOAD LOCK HAVING SECONDARY ISOLATION CHAMBER - A load lock includes a chamber including an upper portion, a lower portion, and a partition between the upper portion and the lower portion, the partition including an opening therethrough. The load lock further includes a first port in communication with the upper portion of the chamber and a second port in communication with the lower portion of the chamber. The load lock includes a rack disposed within the chamber and a workpiece holder mounted on a first surface of the rack, wherein the rack and the workpiece holder are movable by an indexer that is capable of selectively moving wafer slots of the rack into communication with the second port. The indexer can also move the rack into an uppermost position, at which the first surface of the boat and the partition sealingly separate the upper portion and the lower portion to define an upper chamber and a lower chamber. Auxiliary processing, such as wafer pre-cleaning, or metrology can be conducted in the upper portion. | 07-29-2010 |

| 20080285051 | Multiple-degree of freedom interferometer with compensation for gas effects - The disclosure features multiple degree-of-freedom interferometers (e.g., non-dispersive interferometers) for monitoring linear and angular (e.g., pitch and/or yaw) displacements of a measurement object with compensation for variations in the optical properties of a gas in the interferometer measurement (and/or reference) beam paths. The disclosure also features interferometry systems that feature an array of interferometers (e.g., including one or more multiple degree-of-freedom interferometer), each configured to provide different information about variations in the optical properties of the gas in the system. Multiple degree-of-freedom interferometers are also referred to as multi-axis interferometers. | 11-20-2008 |
| 20080285106 | Apparatus and Method For Nanoradian Metrology of Changes In Angular Orientation of A Vibrating Mirror Using Multi-Pass Optical Systems - A new and useful metrology system is provided, of a type that comprises an optical cavity of the hemispherical or spherical type, with a vibrating mirror not located at or near a focus of the optical cavity, and which is particularly useful as a non interferometric metrology system. In one of its basic aspects, the metrology system measures changes in orientation of a vibrating mirror, by providing an optical cavity that includes reflection of a measurement beam from the vibrating mirror, where the optical cavity is configured such that an object space that includes the vibrating mirror is a conjugate image of the same object space. In another of its basic aspects, a metrology system according to the present invention has a measurement beam that is reflected from the vibrating mirror, where the vibrating mirror and a reference mirror are in a relationship in which reflection of the measurement beam from the vibrating mirror is then reflected from the reference mirror in a manner that establishes a local reference system for measuring changes in the orientation of the vibrating mirror. | 11-20-2008 |
| 20100020180 | ALIGNMENT METROLOGY AND RESOLUTION MEASUREMENT SYSTEM FOR IMAGING ARRAYS - An alignment metrology and resolution measurement system concurrently determines the alignment of an imaging array in six degrees of freedom relative to an external reference frame, and further determines the resolution of the imaging array. To achieve this, an image of at least three mask patterns is projected on the imaging array. First and second positions of the imaging array relative to first and second coordinate axis of the reference frame is obtained using pixel positions of the images along the first and second axis. A first rotational position of the imaging array about a third coordinate axis is obtained using pixel positions of the images along the first and second axes. The third position and the second and third rotational positions of the imaging array about the first and second coordinate axis are determined using feature widths of focus images of the patterns and distances between the mask patterns. | 01-28-2010 |

| 20080254150 | Management of dermatitic symptoms of mammalian integument with emollient disinfectant formulations - Botanically-sourced and botanically-derived emollient sanitation compositions for topical use are disclosed. Representative compositions generally aid reconstitution of the lipid profile of the stratum corneum by providing botanical lipids and/or lipid-derivatives that resemble human sebum—these components being ordinarily diminished with the use of conventional hand sanitizer products. Disclosed features and specifications may be variously controlled, adapted or optionally modified to realize, for example, improved hand sanitizer formulations. Representative embodiments of the present invention generally provide anti-microbial compositions blended with botanically sourced lipids and/or lipid-derivatives to control or otherwise improve dermatitic symptoms associated with frequent use of conventional hand sanitizer products. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20090191243 | High unsaponifiables and methods of using the same and its derivatives and uses thereof - Materials with high levels of unsaponifiable matter, such as extracts from plants, result in Hydrolysates with unique properties. It has been found that the application of a hydrolysis process to materials, particularly materials with a high level of unsaponifiables (e.g., at least 6% by total weight of the material) produces a product with properties significantly different from those products resulting from the conventional saponification of materials with less than 6% by weight of unsaponifiables. The resulting Hydrolysates from the practice of the present invention are substantive, resisting both physical and aqueous-based removal from skin and hair, exhibit a very unique surfactant property, and are not foaming agents with water. Addition of extra alkali metal hydroxides to these Hydrolysates according to the present invention may thus be used to neutralized acidic gelling agents and thereby providing a gel with enhanced the performance for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. | 07-30-2009 |

| 20090079935 | Method of Calculating the Required Power of a Toric Implant - A method for calculating the required power of a toric implant by using both the measured pre-operative corneal astigmatism and the predicted surgically-induced post-operative astigmatism. The surgically-induced post-operative astigmatism is predicted using power vector analysis of the surgical technique employed by the surgeon. Such a method provides a more accurate method of calculating the required post-operative refractive power of the implant. The method can be implemented manually, but preferably is automated by implementation on a computer through appropriate software. | 03-26-2009 |
