Patent AU-5168396-A (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for predicting process characteristics of polyurethane pads
Inventor: MEIKLE SCOTT G
IPC: B24B53/017
Filed: 1996-01-30
Abstract: A measurement of polyurethane pad characteristics is used to predict performance characteristics of polyurethane pads used for chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) of semiconductor wafers, and to adjust process parameters for manufacturing polyurethane pads. In-situ fluorescence measurements of a pad that has been exposed to a high pH and high temperature environment are performed. The fluorescence characteristics of the pad are used to predict the rate of planarization of a wafer. A portion of one pad from a manufacturing lot is soaked in an organic solvent which causes the portion to swell. The relative increase in size is indicative of the performance characteristics of pads within the manufacturing lot. Statistical Process Control methods are used to optimize the CMP pad manufacturing process. Predicted pad characteristics are available for each pad.

Title: Method and device for the remote operation and remote control of systems and apparatus via a telephone network
Inventor: STOLZ HELMUT
IPC: H04M11/00
Filed: 1997-11-14
Abstract: The known methods and devices, which resemble the remote access systems for answering machines, do not provide sufficient protection against copying and manipulation. With the modified method, the establishment of connections between the base station and the adapters is made dependent on a mutual authentication process. The user identifies himself first with respect to his terminal and second, when the connection has been established, with respect to the base station by means of coded data comprising a "key" and a "secret". The coded data initiate a mutual authentication step according to known processes. It is only then that the base station, by means of a first ready signal, acknowledges that it is ready to be connected to an adapter, and the user sends similarly coded commands for the adapter and type of actuation, preferably combined with unrestricted data and an acknowledgement. The method even enables critical functions with greater demands as concerns security to be remotely controlled via the public telephone network, for which dedicated lines would otherwise be necessary.

Title: Improved fluid dispenser
Inventor: BANKS STEWART
IPC: B67D3/00
Filed: 1994-01-04
Abstract: A fluid dispenser is disclosed for dispensing a fluid from a pouch having a discharge passage that extends along a tortuous path. The dispenser has a dispenser station and dispenser mechanism in the dispenser station. In one aspect the dispenser mechanism comprises a backstop on one side of the dispenser path and a cam operated cylindrical roller confronting the backstop located on the other side of the dispenser path. The roller is attached to a roller bracket which is pivotally attached to the interior of a hollow pushbutton. The pushbutton is mounted in an opening in the dispenser front cover. Springs are attached to the bracket and the front cover which maintain the roller against the flexible dispenser compartment of the pouch. Depressing the pushbutton forces the roller to trap the upper portion of the pouch flexible dispenser compartment between the roller and backstop to initially seal the dispenser compartment at its upper end and further pushbutton action forces the roller down the dispenser compartment thereby causing expulsion of the fluid trapped in the dispenser compartment.

Patent AU-6107798-A (AU)
Title: Apparatus for imaging blood flow in the microcirculation
Inventor: BOGGETT DAVID
IPC: A61B5/026
Filed: 1998-02-18
Abstract: Blood perfusion in tissue is imaged using a beam from a monochromatic laser light source that is scanned over the tissue surface in a predetermined pattern at a substantially constant speed. Light scattered from the tissue surface is collected. The position of the beam can be determined and recorded at any point of the scan, and the beam can be halted at a predetermined position or positions during the scan. Two or more photodetectors are positioned to collect light diffusely scattered from the tissue surface such that specularly reflected light is detected by either no detector or by only one detector at a given time. Electrical signals from the photodetectors are processed, and saturation of a photodetector is registered. The saturated photodetector is eliminated from the signal processing to ensure that only unsaturated photodetector signals are processed. The blood perfusion measurements are recorded and displayed.

Title: Ligands for use in therapeutic compositions for the treatment of hemostasis disorders
Inventor: JACQUEMIN MARC G
IPC: C07K19/00
Filed: 2000-07-13
Abstract: The present invention comprises ligands and methods of manufacture thereof as well as pharmaceutical preparations including the ligands. The ligands may be human or humanized monoclonal antibodies and fragments, derivatives and homologs thereof. These may exhibit an unforeseen "plateau effect", i.e. the achievement of only a partial inactivation of a factor involved in hemostasis, in particular in the coagulation cascade, either individually or in combination even in molar excess. The ligands may bind to a factor or a complex of factors resulting in only partially impairing the function of a physiologically functional site of the said factor or factor complex even in molar excess. This makes the ligands particularly suitable for treating coagulation disorders and resulting thrombotic pathologic conditions while minimizing the risk of bleeding. Particularly useful is a property of ligands in accordance with the present invention to allow some physiological function of the affected site even when the ligand is in molar excess. The ligands may be anti-factor VIII antibodies or antibodies against a factor VIII complex, in particular human or human hybrid monoclonal antibodies which bind to factor VIII or a factor VIII complex and at least partially inhibit the activity of factor VIII.

Title: Mirrorback coating
Inventor: SANFORD TIMOTHY J
IPC: G02B1/10
Filed: 1991-01-04
Abstract: A lead-free composition capable of being applied as a film and hardening to form a protective layer on the back of a mirror comprises a fluid organic resin and a corrosion inhibitor selected from the group consisting of dicyandiamide, metal or acid salts of dicyandiamide, hydrogen cyanamide, and 2-cyanoacetamide. The organic resin may be any thermoplastic or thermosetting resin suitable for coating the reflective and other metallic layers of the mirror. Exemplary resins include alkyd resins, acrylic resin, modified alkyd resins, polyesters, urethane oils, vinyl halide polymers or copolymers, oleoresinous varnishes, nitrocellulose compositions, phenol-formaldehyde resin varnishes, and epoxy resins. Preferably, the resin is an alkyd or modified alkyd resin. The aforementioned corrosion inhibitor may be present in an amount from about 0.1 to 20 weight percent, preferably 0.5 to 10 weight percent, of the organic resin coating system. The resin system should be essentially free of lead and lead salts. To inhibit the corrosion of metallic film layers on mirrors, a mirror having a glass substrate layer and a metallic film layer thereover should be obtained, after which the fluid organic resin coating system containing the aforementioned corrosion inhibitor is applied over the metallic film layer. The organic resin coating system is then hardened to produce the protective coating layer over the metallic layer. Other articles having metallic surfaces may also be protected by the resin system containing the novel corrosion inhibitor of the present invention.
