Patent EP-1218925-A1 (EP)
Inventor: OUYE ALAN HIROSHI
IPC: H01L21/304
Filed: 2000-08-03
Abstract: L'invention concerne une ligne servant à traiter des tranches de semi-conducteurs destinées à la fabrication de circuits intégrés (CI). Cette ligne comprend une chambre entrée-sortie contribuant à l'élimination des impuretés résiduelles sur ces tranches avant leur transfert vers une ligne de traitement. On place un boîtier contenant des tranches de semi-conducteurs dans une chambre, puis on l'isole hermétiquement de la ligne et de l'atmosphère. On disperse ensuite un gaz inerte sec, tel que l'azote, dans la partie supérieure de la chambre de manière à former une enveloppe autour des tranches et à déplacer et éliminer des impuretés, telles que les particules en suspension dans l'air, l'humidité et les vapeurs organiques. Pendant que le gaz de nettoyage s'écoule, les gaz et les impuretés résiduelles sont évacués à partir de la partie inférieure de la chambre à un débit relativement faible jusqu'à l'obtention d'un niveau de pression intermédiaire auquel les gouttelettes de pression du liquide provenant de l'humidité et de la vapeur résiduelles ne peuvent plus se condenser. Ainsi, l'écoulement de gaz de nettoyage est interrompu, la pression à l'intérieur de la chambre baissant relativement rapidement jusqu'à une valeur de fonctionnement de base (une fraction d'un torr, par exemple). Les tranches peuvent alors être transférées vers la ligne, puis traitées avant la fabrication de circuits intégrés.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des trains de tige à mouvement continu ou quasi continu, qui comprennent des capteurs sensibles aux mouvements et d'autres capteurs à mesure de fond pendant le forage (MWD) qui prennent des mesures stationnaires, pendant que l'assemblage de forage continue de forer le puits. Pour le forage continu et les mesures stationnaires simultanées, la présente invention propose un assemblage de forage, dans lequel un système d'application de force quasi continu, applique cette force sur l'outil de forage, tout en maintenant un logement ou une section de masse-tige stationnaire. Des capteurs sensibles aux mouvements placés sur la masse-tige prennent des mesures stationnaires. Un appareil orientable, entre l'outil de forage et le système d'application de force, poursuit le forage du puits en suivant une trajectoire de puits prédéterminée.

Abstract: Every segment of an input information signal is assigned to
one of first signal points in a complex plane in response to a state of
the segment. First signal-point information is generated which
represents the assignment of the segment to one of the first signal
points. Second signal-point information is generated in response to
the first signal-point information. The first signal-point information
and the second signal-point information are symmetrical with
respect to a predetermined frequency having a relation of a
predetermined integer ratio with an IDFT sampling frequency to
cancel and nullify one of a real-part IDFT-resultant signal and an
imaginary-part IDFT-resultant signal. IDFT is implemented in
response to the first signal-point information and the second signal-point
information to generate an IDFT-resultant OFDM signal having
only one of a real-part component and an imaginary-part
component.

contains two pawls (202,206) connected to a connector (260) at one end. The second end of one pawl
contacts a portion of one path on the surface, and the second end of the other pawl
contacts a portion of the other path on the surface. One path is smooth, and the other
path contains grooves. A sensor (212) on one pawl senses the relative position of the other
pawl. The unevenness of the surface (270) can be detected by monitoring the relative
positions of the two pawls (202,206) as the two pawls travel along the two paths. The sensing
mechanism may be used for monitoring the position on a cassette in a sterilization

Abstract: A processor has respective first and second
external instruction formats (F 1 , F 2 ) in which
instructions (add, load) are received by the processor.
Each instruction has an opcode (e.g. 1011) which
specifies an operation to be executed. Each external
format has one or more preselected opcode bits (F 1 :
i+1~i+4; F 2 :i+1~i+3) in which the opcode appears. The
processor also has an internal instruction format (G 1 )
into which instructions in the external formats are
translated prior to execution of the operation. 
     A first operation (add) is specifiable in both the
first and second external formats (F 1 , F 2 ), and a second
operation (load) is specifiable in the second external
format (F 2 ). The first and second operations have
distinct opcodes (101, 011) in the second external
format. In each of the preselected opcode bits which
the first and second external formats have in common
(i+1~i+3), the opcodes of the first operation (101) in
the two external formats are identical. 
     Such "congruent" instruction encodings can enable
a translation process, for translating the external-format
opcode into a corresponding internal-format
opcode, to be carried out simply and quickly without
the need to positively identify each individual
external-format opcode.
