Abstract: A method for forming an improved copper inlaid interconnect (FIG. 11) begins by performing an RF preclean operation (408) on the inlaid structure in a chamber (10). The RF preclean rounds corners (210a and 206a) of the structure to reduce voiding and improve step coverage while not significantly removing copper atoms from the underlying exposed copper interconnects surfaces (202a). A tantalum barrier (220) is then deposited where one portion of the tantalum barrier is more tensile than another portion of the tantalum barrier. After formation of the barrier layer (220), a copper seed layer (222) is formed over a top of the barrier layer. The copper layer is formed while clamping the wafer with an improved clamp (85) which reduces copper peeling and contamination at wafer edges. Copper electroplating and chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) processes are then used to complete the copper interconnect structure.

Abstract: An automated precision liquid metering apparatus using injectors as metering devices is provided. The apparatus mainly includes a plurality of storage containers uniformly spaced on a plane in multiple rows. Each storage container is sealed with a cap and has a loadstone disposed therein. A stirring means is located below the storage containers to cause the loadstones rotate and thereby evenly stir liquid in the storage containers. The cap of each storage container has at least one injector extended therethrough. A liquid sucking-releasing means mounted on a traveling means could be shifted to locate above a selected storage container under control of a control means. When the liquid sucking-releasing means is descended, it grabs the injector on the selected storage container, and when the same means is ascended, it causes the injector to suck in an amount of liquid from the selected storage container while extracting the same injector from the selected storage container. The extracted injector is then moved by the traveling means to a receptacle positioned on an electronic balance and caused by said liquid sucking-releasing means to release all the previously sucked liquid into the receptacle at where the liquid is precisely measured with the electronic balance. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A reference trimming verify circuit and method is provided for performing a program verify operation on a reference cell transistor in an array of Flash EEPROM memory cells. A reference current branch is used to generate a reference current corresponding to a predetermined overdrive voltage of the reference cell to be programmed. A drain current branch is coupled to the reference cell transistor to be programmed and generates a drain current at a fixed gate voltage applied to its control gate and at a predetermined drain voltage applied to its drain when the drain current is at the desired level. A comparator is used to compare a sensed voltage corresponding to the drain current and a reference voltage corresponding to the reference current. The comparator generates an output signal which is at a low logic level when the sensed voltage is less than the reference voltage and which is at a high logic level when the sensed voltage is greater than the reference voltage. A program pulse is applied to the reference transistor each time the comparator generates the low logic level and terminates the program pulse when the comparator generates the high logic level.

Abstract: A method of combusting fuel and air in a burner of an external combustion engine having a heater head. The fuel and air are combined to form a fuel-air mixture which is characterized by a fuel-air ratio. An exhaust gas product is produced when the fuel-air mixture is combusted in the burner of the external combustion engine. A flame is formed by igniting the fuel-air mixture at a first fuel-air ratio produced by a first air flow rate and a fuel flow rate. The air flow rate is then increased to produce a second fuel-air ratio. The fuel flow rate is also controlled based upon a temperature of the heater head of the external combustion engine. The flame is maintained at the second fuel-air ratio by adjusting the air flow rate based on the fuel flow rate. The external combustion engine may be, for example, a Stirling cycle engine.

Abstract: The invention relates to support leg assemblies for the support of a goods transport trailer which is normally connectable and transportable via a vehicle tractor unit. When not connected to the vehicle tractor unit, the leg assembly is required to be in an in use condition to support the trailer and prevent the front of the same from falling downwardly to contact the support surface. In accordance with the invention, the conventional leg assembly problems are overcome by the provision of the support leg assembly having two members, a first member (2) fixed to the trailer and a second member (4) supported by and connected with the first member (2). In the in-use condition, the said second member (4) is substantially in line with the first member (2) to contact the support surface and in a storage condition, the second member (4) is pivotally moved to a retracted position. Movement can be by manual operation or more preferably by the use of powered means.

The mobile device performs a scanning operation to identify one or more communication networks, and consults a network selection list for selecting, in accordance with assigned priorities of the list, one of the identified networks. The mobile device also determines whether a packet data service interconnection to a home network via the selected network is available. If the interconnection to the home network via the selected network is determined to be available, then the mobile device operates with voice and packet data services in the selected network. Otherwise, if the interconnection to the home network via the selected network is determined to be unavailable, then the mobile device repeats the acts of consulting and determining for the next identified network in the list.

Abstract: This invention pertains to novel copolyesters consisting essentially of units (I), (II), (III) and (IV), and blends of these polymers and articles made from both. Units (I), (II), (III), and (IV) are present in specified proportions as defined in the description of the invention. The instant copolyesters display orientation in the molten state, good fiber ratings and high strength. Advantageously, the polymers of the present invention display a significant improvement in viscosity and moldability of the neat polymer. The polymers have excellent mechanical and surface properties including blister resistance, strength, toughness, and ability to vapor phase solder, and form strong fibers while still maintaining a high heat distortion temperature. They have melting points in the range of from about 250 to about 360 DEG C and are melt-processible. Advantageously, these compositions filled with about 30 weight percent of glass fibers display heat distortion temperatures of up to 240 DEG C, when measured under a load of 264 psi. The polymers may be blended to tailor properties. These polymers and blends may be used advantageously in producing fibers and in electrical equipment, electronic components and other end uses requiring moderately high temperatures.
