Patent EP-1336130-A2 (EP)
Inventor: STEARNS DANIEL G
IPC: G02B5/28
Filed: 2001-09-05
Abstract: A method is provided for repairing defects in a multilayer coating layered onto a reticle blank used in an extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) system. Using high lateral spatial resolution, energy is deposited in the multilayer coating in the vicinity of the defect. This can be accomplished using a focused electron beam, focused ion beam or a focused electromagnetic radiation. The absorbed energy will cause a structural modification of the film, producing a localized change in the film thickness. The change in film thickness can be controlled with sub-nanometer accuracy by adjusting the energy dose. The lateral spatial resolution of the thickness modification is controlled by the localization of the energy deposition. The film thickness is adjusted locally to correct the perturbation of the reflected field. For example, when the structural modification is a localized film contraction, the repair of a defect consists of flattening a mound or spreading out the sides of a depression.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for efficient processing of signal in a communication system. The processing of the signal for transmission may include encoding a block of data at an encoding rate 1/R. The encoding produces R number of data symbols for every data bit in the block of data. A block of RAM (299, 600) is partitioned into a plurality of blocks of RAM to allow reading simultaneously data symbols from the plurality of blocks of RAM to produce an in-phase and a quad-phase data symbols simultaneously. At least two scramblers (306 and 307) are used for simultaneously scrambling the in-phase and quad-phase data symbols. A Walsh covering/summing block (700) followed by the scramblers provides efficient Walsh covering and summing of signals for a combined transmission from the communication system.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant de différencier les rythmes cardiaques, qui consistent à calculer un premier nombre prédéterminé d'intervalles RR à partir des intervalles QRS reçus, et à calculer un intervalle RR médian correspondant à un nombre prédéterminé du premier nombre prédéterminé d'intervalles RR. Une variation prédéterminée de battement à battement et une valeur de comptage prédéterminée correspondant sont déterminées sur la base de l'intervalle RR médian calculé. Les différences de variation de battement à battement entre le premier nombre prédéterminé d'intervalles RR sont calculés; on établit alors si ces différences calculées sont supérieures à la variation de battement à battement prédéterminée, et si certaines de ces différences calculées, qui sont supérieures à ladite variation, sont également supérieures à la valeur de comptage prédéterminée. Le rythme cardiaque est identifié comme étant irrégulier en réponse au nombre qui est supérieur ou égal à la valeur de comptage prédéterminée.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for maintaining data integrity. According to the method, a physical checksum calculation is performed on a block of data. After performing the physical checksum calculation, a logical check is performed on the data contained with the block of data. If the block of data passes the logical check, then the block of data may be written to nonvolatile memory. Thereafter, when the block of data is read from nonvolatile memory a physical checksum verification procedure is performed on the block of data to determine whether the block of data was corrupted after performing the logical check on the data contained with the block of data.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the design of libraries, such as combinatorial libraries, which may be used in the discovery of novel potentially useful compounds. The invention operates on a population of libraries that is refined iteratively. The refinement involves the following steps: calculating the relative dominance of the libraries in the population; selecting libraries for modification according to dominance; modifying the selected libraries using genetic operators; and inserting the modified libraries back in the population. The refinement steps are repeated until adequate convergence is deemed to have occurred or for a specified number of iterations. The Pareto optimal set of libraries in the final population is output for further processing such as storage or manufacture.

Abstract: A tube fitting that uses only two components, namely a fitting body and a fitting nut. The nut and body are adapted to be threadably coupled together by relative rotation therebetween. The nut includes an integral tube gripping ring that cooperates with a camming surface on the body when the fitting is made-up. The camming surface preferably has a steep camming angle. The ring is radially compressed against the tube outer wall to form a seal and a tight tube grip. The ring also forms a line contact-type seal against the camming surface. The ring is designed to have a hinging action and to plastically deform during pull-up to embed into the tubing for excellent tube grip, and an axially adjacent swage or collet zone that isolates any stress riser resulting from the embedding action from vibration effects. The fitting components, and particularly the ring, may be case hardened, the fitting may include a self-gauging feature to indicate sufficient pull-up to prevent excessive pull-up. Also provided is a single ferrule tube fitting that uses a steep camming surface and is at least about 3.3 times harder than the stainless steel tube end.
