Patent CA-2422062-C (CA)
Inventor: BOWERS CHARLES W
IPC: H01L21/3065
Filed: 2001-09-12
Granted: 2011-03-08
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant l'élimination sélective d'un couche de film métallique (14) s'étant accumulée sur une couche de photorésine (10) durant le traitement de substrats, grâce à un courant de pulvérisation de dioxyde de carbone (20), sans porter atteinte aux parties conductrices. Un courant constant (20) de neige de CO¿2? haute pression est appliqué à la couche de film métallique, ce qui permet de refroidir rapidement la couche métallique se trouvant sur ladite couche de résine, provoquant ainsi son rétrécissement, et ainsi que sa désolidarisation et son enlèvement de la couche de photorésine se trouvant en-dessous. La température du substrat est augmentée et maintenue à une valeur significativement supérieure à celle de la température ambiante. La poursuite de l'application de pulvérisation de CO¿2? provoque un choc thermique à la photorésine qui se trouve en dessous de la couche métallique, ce qui a pour conséquence la formation de craquelures de dimensions supérieures dans les parties de couche métallique restantes, lesdites craquelures comprenant au moins un bord métallique décollé. La pulvérisation de CO¿2? est appliquée en continu sur les craquelures, ce qui permet l'enlèvement des parties métalliques restantes, laissant ainsi les propriétés des surfaces de photorésine et surfaces sous-jacentes. De préférence, le traitement en continu de la surface avec des particules de neige de CO¿2? provoque l'érosion d'une couche de surface de la photorésine et des couches plus fortement réticulées produites durant le processus de métallisation. Après élimination de la couche métallique et de la couche de surface de la photorésine, un simple agent de décapage chimique, tel que l'acétone, permet d'éliminer complètement toute la résine restante, laissant ainsi la plaquette avec des parties conductrices non endommagées.

Title: Minimally-invasive annuloplasty repair segment delivery template, system and method of use
Inventor: COSGROVE DELOS M
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 2001-09-26
Granted: 2008-07-08
Abstract: An annuloplasty repair segment and template for heart valve annulus repair. The elongate flexible template may form a distal part of a holder that also has a proximal handle. Alternatively, the template may be releasably attached to a mandrel that slides within a delivery sheath, the template being released from the end of the sheath to enable manipulation by a surgeon. A tether connecting the template and mandrel may also be provided. The template may be elastic, temperature responsive, or multiple linked segments. The template may be aligned with the handle and form a two- or three-dimensional curve out of alignment with the handle such that the annuloplasty repair segment attached thereto conforms to the curve. The template may be actively or passively converted between its straight and curved positions. The combined holder and ring is especially suited for minimally-invasive surgeries in which the combination is delivered to an implantation site through a small access incision with or without a cannula, or through a catheter passed though the patient's vasculature.

Abstract: A system and method for establishing initial synchronization for the link between a UE and a base station in a communication network uses window exclusion logic in order to avoid a deadlock condition upon a detection of the wrong public land mobile network (PLMN). The communication signal is processed in a three step decision process. The first decision step (12) determines a chip offset of the strongest path detected over a frame of samples. In response to the first decision (12), the second step (14) generates a scrambling code group number and slot offset for retrieving the second synchronization code. The third decision step (16) retrieves a primary scrambling code in response to the code group number for synchronizing the UE  to the base station.

Abstract: A system for maintaining a height adjustable patient bed in a level position while adjusting height of the bed is provided. The system has electrically powered linear actuators having internal position sensors, the linear actuators operable to adjust the height of the bed. The system also has control means, electrically coupled to the linear actuators, which compares position information from the internal position sensors and then adjusts the power supply to one or the other of the linear actuators in response to the position information. This permits the trailing linear actuator to catch up to the lead linear actuator to maintain the bed in a level position while the height of the bed is being adjusted. Since the internal position sensors work on small changes in position, the leveling effect is not noticeable leading to less tilt of the bed and a smoother motion during height adjustment of he bed.
