Title: Ultrasonic probe and operating device therefor
Inventor: HARADA HIROYUKI
IPC: A61B8/12
Filed: 2002-05-21
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To speedily switch over a scanning plane for obtaining an ultrasonic tomographic image between two planes intersecting each other perpendicularly, in ultrasonic diagnostic equipment.  <P>SOLUTION: The direction of the ultrasonic scanning plane is changed by controlling a motor 28 by the operation of a switch or the like of an operating device 22 of an ultrasonic probe 14. Every time when a biplane switch 44 is pressed (operated), the motor 28 is controlled so that the scanning plane may rotate at an angle of 90°. Since the scanning plane is rotated at 90° by the pressing operation of the switch alone, the image can be switched over more speedily and precisely between the two planes intersecting each other perpendicularly than the occasion when the angle of 90° is regulated by an operator himself.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Filed: 2002-06-05
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve single wafer curing in which a film quality equivalent to that of butch wafer curing is attained.  <P>SOLUTION: A wafer coated with liquid containing a porous material is placed on a heat plate conditioned to an initial temperature L. The wafer is then heated up to an intermediate temperature M through irradiation with infrared rays. A granular matter eventually becoming porous is formed in the coating film on the wafer. The wafer is then kept at the intermediate temperature M for a specified time t2. The granular matter entirely springs out from the coating film during that interval, thus forming pores in the film. Subsequently, the wafer is heated up to a target temperature H by increasing the irradiation output of infrared rays. The wafer is kept at the target temperature H for a given time t4 and cured through firing. Since the temperature of the wafer is raised stepwise using infrared rays, chemical reactions in the coating film take place in correct order, and a high quality insulating film is formed on the wafer.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
