IPC: C01B5/00
Filed: 1998-06-12
Granted: 2001-04-21
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of operating a reactor for the generation of water used in semiconductor manufacturing apparatus. The object is to decrease an un-reacted hydrogen quantity in generated water at a start time and a stop time of a reactor for water generation, to enhance stability of a semiconductor production device, and to prevent the film formation of an Si oxidized film, etc., by a water oxidation method from being hindered. In the method, hydrogen and oxygen are fed into a reactor main body provided with a Pt coating film on a wall surface of the internal space 1a, and reaction activities of the hydrogen and the oxygen are enhanced with a catalytic work of the Pt and also the hydrogen and oxygen of which reaction activities are activated are allowed to instantly react at a lower temperature than an ignition temperature of a hydrogen mixture gas to generate the water without combustion at a high temperature. The feed of hydrogen is started later than the feed of the oxygen at a start time of the water generation.

Title: Parallel file system and method for granting byte range tokens
Inventor: SCHMUCK FRANK B
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1998-06-16
Granted: 2001-06-16
Abstract: A computer system having a shared disk file system running on multiple computers each having their own instance of an operating system and being coupled for parallel data sharing access to files residing on network attached shared disks. Methods are provided for use as a parallel file system in a shared disk environment by use of a scalable directory service for the system with a stable cursor, a segmented allocation map. Dynamic prefetch and cached balance pools for multiple accesses improve the system. Extended file attributes are used for implementation of access control lists in a parallel file system. Improvements to caching and cache performance developments balance pools for multiple accesses. A metadata node manages file metadata for parallel read and write actions. For our system, tokens are used for metadata node selection and identification, and we have enhanced token modes for controlling file size, as well as smart caching of byte range tokens using file access patterns and a byte range lock algorithm using a byte range token interface. Locking techniques reduce the overhead of a token manager which is also used in the file system recovery if a computer participating in the management of shared disks becomes unavailable or failed. Synchronous and asynchronous takeover of metadata node occurs for correction of metadata which was under modification and a new computer node to be a metadata node for that file. Locks are not constantly required to allocated new blocks on behalf of a user. We have provided recoverable local shares for quota management. A quota server and a quota client are provided for each file system, and a quotacheck utility allows parallel environments with minimal interference to other applications which require the use of quotas.

Title: Preparation of hydrophilic piezoelectric sensing probe by self-assembled monolayer
Inventor: CHEN SHIOU-MEI
IPC: G01N33/53
Filed: 1998-07-08
Granted: 2002-06-11
Abstract: A novel and simple fabrication method to prepare hydrophilic piezoelectric sensing probes by a self-assembled monolayer was provided. Here a hydrophilic matrix of periodate-oxidized dextran (POD)was used as a double-sided linker to covalently immobilize protein A (SpA) or any bio-recognition molecules onto a piezoelectric crystal surface which had been previously modified with amine-terminated long chain thiols. The prepared sensing probes were used to specifically bioassay human immunoglobulin G (hIgG). With the advantages of the formation of a protective self-assembled monolayer of long chain thiols on the gold surface via chemical interaction and the presence of a hydrophilic environment provided by POD, the stability, storage stability specificity, and reusability of the probes were greatly improved. Moreover, the adsorption kinetics between bio-recognition molecules and analytes, such as SpA and hIgG, was readily investigated.

Title: Connectors having improved crosstalk and signal transmission characteristics
Inventor: HAYWARD C MICHAEL
IPC: H01R12/50
Filed: 1998-09-07
Granted: 2001-05-01
Abstract: In an improved connector assembly, a male pin is inserted into a proximal end of a female contact which conductively engages the pin at a distal end, providing a folded signal path geometry. As a signal propagates in a first direction along the male pin, it generates a first magnetic field of a first orientation about the male pin. At the contact point, the signal reverses direction and generates a second magnetic field of a second orientation opposite the first orientation about the female contact. Their respective opposed orientations cause the magnetic fields to substantially cancel in the region of magnetic interaction. Any remaining electric fields are contained by grounded shielding in the female contact cavities. This configuration mitigates the effect of crosstalk between adjacent signals in the connector, and reduces the effective path length of the signal.

Title: Apparatus for sensing the presence of a wafer
Inventor: KALENIAN BILL
IPC: B24B37/30
Filed: 1999-10-15
Granted: 2001-06-23
Abstract: Apparatus for use in a semiconductor wafer polishing machine of a type in which the wafer is picked up and held by a suction cup effect between the wafer and a resilient diaphragm on the wafer carrier. The apparatus permits the presence or absence of a wafer on the carrier to be sensed so that this information can be used in controlling the operation of the machine. In normal operation, a vacuum is applied to a downwardly-opening plenum that is covered by a resilient diaphragm. The present invention is the addition to the wafer carrier of an air conduit opening into the plenum through an air port and connected to an orifice so that air can flow through the orifice, through the air conduit and the air port into the plenum at a rate that is slow relative to the capacity of the vacuum pump. The present invention further requires the addition of a pressure sensor for sensing the pressure in the air conduit or alternatively in the vacuum conduit. The sensed pressure in the vacuum conduit is lower in the absence of a wafer than in the presence of a wafer, and the sensed pressure in the air conduit is greater in the absence of a wafer than it is when a wafer is present.
