Patent EP-2190269-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ANTAYA TIMOTHY A
IPC: H05H13/00
Filed: 2007-01-19
Abstract: A magnet structure for particle acceleration includes at least two coils that include a continuous path of superconducting material (e.g. niobium tin (Nb3Sn) having an A15-type crystal structure) for electric current flow there through. The coils can be mounted in a bobbin, which together with the coils form a cold-mass structure. The coils are cooled to their superconducting temperatures via cryocoolers. Radial-tension members are coupled with the cold-mass structure to keep it centered, such that it remains substantially symmetrical about a central axis and is not pulled out of alignment by magnetic forces acting thereon. A wire can be wrapped around the coils, and a voltage can be applied thereto to quench the coils to prevent their operation of the coils in a partially superconducting condition, which may otherwise cause damage thereto. A magnetic yoke surrounds the cold-mass structure and includes a pair of poles that, in part, define an acceleration chamber there between. The inner surfaces of the poles have tapered profiles that establish a correct weak focusing requirement and that provide phase stability for ion acceleration and that reduce pole diameter by increasing energy gain versus radius. An integral magnetic shield is positioned about the yoke to contain magnetic fields emanating there from and can have a tortuous configuration to contain magnetic fields having a variety of orientations. The magnet structure can be very compact and can produce particularly high magnetic fields.

Abstract: Systems and methods for operating, particularly in the field, a Raman spectroscopy device that includes a laser, a spectrograph, an intensified charge coupled device (ICCD), and an autofocus subsystem. Before spectral data acquisition commences a series of ancillary data checks is performed to monitor operating conditions of at least the laser, the ICCD, and the autofocus subsystem. Further, after each Raman spectrum acquisition, a series of data quality checks is performed to enhance confidence in the just collected data. Only spectral data that passes the data quality checks are further processed. However, all spectral data are stored in a log file. When the log file reaches a predetermined capacity, the log file is closed, and a new round of ancillary data checks is performed to again monitor the status of the Raman spectroscopy device.

Abstract: To fabricate back side contact pads that are suitable for use in a vertical integrated circuit, vias are made in the face side of a wafer (110), and dielectric (140) and contact pad metal (150) arc deposited into the vias. Then the wafer back side is etched until the metal is exposed (150C). When the etch exposes the insulator at the via bottoms (140A, 140B), the insulator is etched slower than the wafer material (e.g. silicon). Therefore, when the dielectric is etched off and the metal is exposed, the dielectric protrudes down from the wafer back side around the exposed metal contact pads, by about 8 µm in some embodiments. The protruding dielectric portion improve insulation between the wafer and the contact pads when the contact pads are soldered to an underlying circuit.
