Abstract: A lithographic projection apparatus comprising a radiation system
(LA,Ex,IL) for supplying a projection beam (PB) of electromagnetic
radiation in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) range, a support structure
(MT) for supporting patterning means (MA), the patterning means serving
to pattern the projection beam according to a desired pattern, a
substrate table (WT) for holding a substrate (W) and a projection system
(PL) for projecting the patterned beam onto a target portion (C) of the
substrate. A space (3) within the apparatus, which space contains a
mirror (CM), is supplied with a hydrocarbon gas which forms a protective
cap layer on the mirror surface. The partial pressure of the hydrocarbon
gas in the space is controlled in response to variations in the
background pressure in the space and/or in the reflectivity of the
mirror, such that the thickness of the cap layer on the mirror remains
within an acceptable range. The partial pressure of hydrocarbon may be
increased in order to sputter away the cap layer and/or, if extra
multilayers are provided on the mirror, the top layer(s) of the mirror,
thus providing a clean mirror surface. The hydrocarbon used may be an
alcohol, in which case the cap layer formed is self-terminating.

Abstract: In a camera and method, the electronic image initially made
available for viewing, following deactivation and reactivation of a display,
depends upon the duration of inactivity and the prior electronic image viewed. In
the method, a series of electronic images are sequentially captured and stored in
memory in a camera. An image display of the camera is then selectively
activated. A default image is shown on the display responsive to the activating.
The display is selectively switched to a user selected image following the showing
of the default image. The display is deactivated at the end of a display
deactivation time period and selectively reactivated following the deactivating.
The default image is shown, responsive to the reactivating, when the deactivating
is prior to the switching. The user selected image is shown, responsive to the
reactivating, when the deactivating follows the switching and the reactivating is
during a first time period following the deactivating. The default image is shown,
responsive to the reactivating, when the deactivating follows the switching and the
reactivating is during a second time period following the first time period.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for controlling transmission
of high-speed data traffic in IPDLs, comprising: when an IPDL occurs in the
DPCH channel, the spread spectrum factor will be halved for signal in the
time slot occupied by IPDL and the transmitting power is increased, or the
spread spectrum factors of the first time slot and the second time slot that are
spanned by IPDL are halved (the exact positions are the first half of the
previous time slot and the second half of the next time slot) and transmitting
power compensation should be added; when an IPDL occurs in the HS-DSCH
channel, an empty time slot is inserted in the position where the IPDL
is, or the pervious time slot and the next time slot that are spanned by IPDL is
split into two half time slots, respectively, and signal in the first half of the
previous time slot is transmitted normally, the second half of the previous
time slot is shifted to the second half of the next time slot to transmit, and the
signal in the next time slot is delayed for a time slot before being transmitted.
The present invention helps to reduce the effect of IPDL to data traffic and
system capacity, and reduce delay in receiving data, and improve the
utilization coefficient of channels.
