Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring distance comprises
a capacitance probe positioned adjacent a rotating member and
within the housing of the rotating member such that the
distance between the probe and rotating member can be
measured. The rotating member and probe co-operate with each
other so as to define a capacitor. An oscillator comprising
a transmission line is electrically connected to the probe,
the resonant frequency value of which is a function of the
capacitance of the capacitance. The change in distance
between said rotating member and the probe can therefore be
measured.

Patent EP-0920053-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MIURA SHINETSU
IPC: G03F7/20
Filed: 1998-11-25
Abstract: A device for exposure of the peripheral area of a wafer with a small shape and at low costs in
which, using a device for stepped exposure of the peripheral area of a wafer, the peripheral area of a
wafer can be exposed in a ring shape. A wafer to which resist has been applied is placed on a rotary
support and rotated once. The seated state of the wafer and a singular orienting shape such as an
Ori-Fla or the like are determined. Based on this information, the wafer is positioned in a given
position. Then, the rotary support is moved by means of an X-Y support and exposure is performed.
If the coordinates of the center of rotation (XΘ, YΘ) are taken accurately a ring shape is
approached in practice (if, for example, Θ = 0.1° and for a polygon with 3600 corners a circle is
approached), there is no problem. Two exposure devices are not necessary, specifically one device
for stepped exposure of the peripheral area of a wafer and one device for ring-shaped exposure of
the peripheral area. The peripheral area of the wafer can be exposed both in a step-shape and also
ring-shape with a single device. Therefore the area occupied by the device can be reduced, as can
equipment costs. In the case of stepped exposure of one part of the peripheral area of the wafer and
ring-shaped exposure of the other part thereof, the wafer need not be transported. Furthermore, the
peripheral edge of the wafer need be determined only once. Therefore throughput can be increased.
Using a device for stepped exposure of the peripheral area of the wafer, the peripheral area of the
wafer can be exposed in a ring shape without using a memory with a high capacity. The peripheral
area of the wafer can be exposed in a ring shape without bringing the wafer center and the center of
the rotary support into agreement with one another. Therefore a centering device is unnecessary.
The centering process is eliminated. Thus both the device and actuation can be simplified.

Abstract: A wafer-scale assembly apparatus for integrated circuits and a
method for forming the wafer-scale assembly are disclosed. A
semiconductor wafer including a plurality of circuits is
provided with a plurality of metal contact pads as electrical
entry and exit ports. A first wafer-scale patterned polymer
film carrying solder balls for each of the contact pads on the
wafer is positioned opposite the wafer, and the wafer and the
film are aligned. The film is brought into contact with the
wafer. Radiant energy in the near infrared spectrum is applied
to the backside of the wafer, heating the wafer uniformly and
rapidly without moving the semiconductor wafer. Thermal energy
is transferred through the wafer to the surface of the wafer and
into the solder balls, which reflow onto the contact pads, while
the thermal stretching of the polymer film is mechanically
compensated. The uniformity of the height of the liquid solder
balls is controlled either by mechanical stoppers or by the
precision linear motion of motors. After cooling, the solder
balls solidify and the first polymer film is removed. The
process is repeated for assembling sequentially a wafer-scale
patterned interposer overlying all of the solder balls and the
wafer and contacting each solder ball with a soldered joint, and
a second wafer-scale patterned film carrying solder balls
contacting the interposer. In each process, the wafer is
heated uniformly and rapidly and without moving it, the
alignment is maintained during heating by mechanically
compensating for the thermal stretching of the polymer film, and
the uniformity of the height of the liquid solder balls is
controlled by mechanical stoppers or position closed-loop linear
actuators. The second film is removed after cooling. Other
embodiments are also disclosed.

plurality of main grooves (2), displaced relative to
one another in the circumferential direction,

main grooves (2) on each side of the tyre equator
are inclined to the same direction, which is however
reverse to that on the other side, at an acute angle
which becomes greater in the course of the
longitudinal extent of the main grooves. The axial
distance of the axially inner ends (2i) of the main
grooves from the tyre equator is in the range of not
more than 2% of the ground contact width. Each main
groove consists of an axially inner part (3a)
inclined at an angle (1) in the range of from 5 to
15 degrees and an axially outer part (3b) inclined
at an angle ((2) in the range of more than 15
degrees but not more than 90 degrees, and the
boundary between these two parts is disposed at an
axial distance from the tyre equator which is in the 
range of from 0.25 to 0.70 times the axial distance
between the axially inner end and outer end of the
main groove. The width of each main groove becomes
larger in the course of its longitudinal extent,
starting from the narrowest axially inner end (2i)
in the vicinity of the tyre equator and becomes
smaller again towards the axially outer end (2e)
thereof. The number of main grooves over the
circumference of the tyre is such that at least part
sections of at least five main grooves are disposed
in the ground contact patch.
