Abstract: An X-ray generator comprises an evacuated and sealed X-ray tube, an electron gun, an X-ray target, an internal electron mask, and an X-ray window consisting of a thin tube of material with low X-ray absorption and high mechanical strength, for example beryllium. The window connects the tube to the target assembly containing the X-ray target. The generator preferably also includes a system for focusing and steering the electron beam onto the target, a cooling system to cool the target material, kinematic mounts to allow precise and repeatable mounting of X-ray devices for focusing the X-ray beam, and X-ray focusing devices of varying configurations and methods. The X-ray generator of the invention produces an X-ray source having a focal spot or line of very small dimensions and is capable of producing a high intensity X-ray beam at a relatively small point of application using a low operating power.

Un dispositif du système (l'organe de commande de système ou une unité de communication) établit une communication répartie entre les groupe d'unités de communication. Le dispositif du système fait ensuite démarrer une minuterie et détermine en continu une première longueur de temps (temps d'appel) à partir de l'établissement de la communication. Le dispositif du système détermine également si un événement indiquant qu'une réassignation d'appel s'est produite au cours de la communication. Lorsqu'un tel événement se produit, le dispositif du système détermine une deuxième longueur de temps (temps de suspension) à partir du temps d'appel, le temps de suspension commençant dès le début de l'événement. Lors de la détermination du temps de suspension, le dispositif du système détermine en outre si la réassignation d'appel s'est produite pendant le temps de suspension. Lorsque la réassignation d'appel ne s'est pas produite pendant le temps de suspension, le dispositif du système déconnecte l'appel.

Abstract: A simple and economical method is described for compacting or shrinking flat glass panes. The method ensures high temperature homogeneity in the glass. First, the glass panes are cleaned and then a stack of glass panes to be treated is assembled without applying a release agent to any of the glass panes. Then the stack of glass panes is placed between ceramic panels made of silicon-infiltrated silicon carbide and this stack together with the ceramic panels is subjected to a heat treatment in a radiation furnace at temperatures ranging from 300° C. to 900° C. The ceramic panels have a thermal conductivity, which, in the region of the heat treatment temperature, is at least 5 times as large as that of the glass panes. The ratio of the total thickness of the ceramic panels to the height of the glass stack should be at least 1/lambd/40W/(mK), wherein lambd is the thermal conductivity of the ceramic panel at the temperatures of the heat treatment.

Abstract: Methods for depositing a metal into a micro-recessed structure in the surface of a microelectronic workpiece are disclosed. The methods are suitable for use in connection with additive free as well as additive containing electroplating solutions. In accordance with one embodiment, the method includes making contact between the surface of the microelectronic workpiece and an electroplating solution in an electroplating cell that includes a cathode formed by the surface of the microelectronic workpiece and an anode disposed in electrical contact with the electroplating solution. Next, an initial film of the metal is deposited into the micro-recessed structure using at least a first electroplating waveform having a first current density. The first current density of the first electroplating waveform is provided to enhance the deposition of the metal at a bottom of the micro-recessed structure. After this initial plating, deposition of the metal is continued using at least a second electroplating waveform having a second current density. The second current density of the second electroplating waveform is provided to assist in reducing the time required to substantially complete filling of the micro-recessed structure.
