Abstract: A linearly polarized light beam is applied to the surface of a film (9b) and is reflected therefrom. The beam is then split into three light beams by three or four optical flats (13a - 13d). These light beams are applied to photoelectric conversion devices (18a - 18c) after passing through analyzers (14a - 14c) with fixed analyzing angles. The photoelectric conversion devices convert the beams into electric signals representing the intensities of these light beams. Two ellipsometric parameters ψ and Δ are calculated from these three electric signals.

Abstract: A method of measuring an effective heating power applied to a workpiece at a position to be heated by a high frequency heating apparatus having a source of high frequency AC power connected to a resonant circuit having a supply of high frequency AC power from the source for applying a high frequency AC power to the workpiece. An effective power P HF  for the power supplied to the resonance circuit is measured. An effective value I t  for the current sensed in the resonance circuit is measured. A power loss W produced in components following the source is calculated as a function of the measured effective value I t . The effective heating power Pw is calculated as Pw = P HF  - W. In another aspect of the invention, the calculated effective heating power Pw is compared with a target value. The power to the resonance circuit is controlled in a direction zeroing the difference between the calculated effective heating power and the target value.

Abstract: Each of a plurality of modules (A) have fittings (14) with automatically closed check valves (16) therein such that the interior of the module is hermetically sealed. The module is selectively interconnected with a sterilizer apparatus (B). Interconnecting tubing (60) selectively supplies liquid from a reservoir (30) to the module. A sterilant injection chamber (56) receives and punctures a sterilant ampule such that incoming water mixes with the sterilant concentrate forming a sterilant solution which is carried to the reservoir. A reservoir outlet valve (70) selectively permits the sterilant solution to pass from the reservoir through the interconnecting tubing into the module until the module and interconnecting tubing are completely filled. Thereafter, the reservoir outlet valve closes holding the sterilant in the interconnecting tubing as well as the module for sufficient duration to sterilize both. Concurrently, additional tap water is heated in the reservoir until it is sterile. Thereafter, the reservoir outlet valve is opened again and the sterilant solution is drained and rinsed from the module with the sterile water. An air pump (86), a heater (84), and a submicron sterilization filter (82) supply heated, sterile drying air through the reservoir, connecting tubing, and module to dry the sterilized device.
