Patent EP-1054438-A2 (EP)
Inventor: EDDY RONALD JOSEPH
IPC: C23C14/00
Filed: 2000-05-08
Abstract: A method and system for controllably stripping a portion of silicon (98) from
a silicon coated surface, for example, from an interior portion of an ion implanter (10). The
system comprises (i) a source (80) of gas comprised at least partially of a reactive gas, such
as fluorine; and (ii) a dissociation device (70) such as a radio frequency (RF) plasma source
located proximate the silicon coated surface for converting the reactive gas to a plasma of
dissociated reactive gas atoms and for directing the dissociated reactive gas atoms toward the
silicon coated surface. A control system (102) determines the rate of removal of the silicon
(98) from the surface by controlling (i) a rate of source gas flow into and the amount of
power supplied to the dissociation device, and (ii) the time of exposure of the silicon coated
surface to the plasma. The invention is useful, among other things, for removing a
contaminant-laden layer of silicon from a wafer-supporting disk (40) in an ion implanter,
wherein the silicon coated surface has been formed by applying a layer (98) of silicon onto
the surface by a plasma enhanced physical vapor deposition (PECVD) process.

Abstract: A film laminate for printing comprises a polyolefin film in which at
least one side is surface-modified and an anchor layer formed on the surface-modified
side of the polyolefin film and containing an oxazoline group-modified
resin. The film laminate is prepared by subjecting at least one side of
a longitudinally oriented polyolefin film to a corona discharge treatment,
forming an ethylene-acrylic acid type copolymer layer on the corona
discharge-treated side of the film, laterally orienting the film, and then
forming an anchor layer comprising a binder resin, and an oxazoline group-modified
resin, on the modified surface of the surface-modified polyolefin film
subjected to the corona discharge treatment. The film laminate for printing is
excellent in its transparency and it is also excellent in the adhesion to a coated
layer.

Abstract: A general programmatic interface-to-network messaging adapter exposes a suitable object integration interface or application programming interface to applications on a controller device and sends network data messages to invoke services or query status of a controlled device. The adapter maps application calls to the interface into network data messages according to service protocols of the controlled device. The general adapter provides the interface suitable to any specific service of a controlled device based on a data description of the interface, and converts the application calls to network data messages based on a data description of a protocol and format for network data messages to interact with the specific service. Once the interface/messaging description is obtained, applications on the controller device can programmatically interact with the adapter, and the adapter then handles appropriate message exchanges with the service of the controlled device. The general adapter allows controller device applications to be written using object-oriented programming, while avoiding code download.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for home location register fault recovery in a system which uses a gateway location register to reduce signaling between visitor location registers and home location registers. When a home location register is recovering from a fault, the home location register sends a reset message to the gateway location registers which are serving mobile subscribers associated with the home location register. The gateway location register sends a reset message to visitor location registers which are serving mobile subscribers associated with the home location register. The gateway location register can determine which mobile subscribers are associated with the home location register by comparing mobile subscriber identification information stored in the gateway location register with information contained in the reset message from the home location register.

Abstract: An ink jet recording sheet having high ink-absorbing
ability is disclosed. A porous structure is formed inside of
an ink-permeable layer of a recording sheet according to the
invention. The total volume of pores having a radius ranging
between 100 nm or more and 10000 nm or less is 0.06 cm 3 /g or
more owing to the porous structure. Therefore, ink applied to
the surface of the ink-permeable layer is permeated vertically
through the porous structure and blurring is therefore scarcely
caused. Also, an ink-absorbing layer having hydrophilic a
resin has high ink-absorbing capacity. The ink permeated
through the ink-permeable layer is absorbed in the ink-absorbing
layer and fixed, so that it is not diffused in the
recording sheet. Therefore, the recording sheet has high
ink-absorbing ability and is therefore free from blurring and
enables high print density also when it is used for printing
in an ink jet system.

Abstract: A method is disclosed of identifying parent ions by
matching daughter ions found to be produced at
substantially the same time that the parent ions elute
from a mixture. Ions emitted from an ion source 1 are
incident upon a collision cell 3 which alternately and
repeatedly switches between a first mode wherein the
ions are substantially fragmented to produce daughter
ions and a second mode wherein the ions are not
substantially fragmented. Mass spectra are taken in
both modes, and at the end of an experimental run parent
and daughter ions are recognised by comparing the mass
spectra obtained in the two different modes. Daughter
ions are matched to particular parent ions on the basis
of the closeness of fit of their elution times, and this
enables parent ions to then be identified.
