    摘要: An apparatus for measuring material outgassed from an object. The apparatus has a chamber containing the object, a condensed material detector (e.g. a quartz microbalance), a heater for heating the object and chamber, and a cooler for cooling the detector. The chamber is sealed from the ambient atmosphere and the detector is located within the chamber. The chamber may contain a vacuum or a gas at ambient atmospheric pressure. Material outgassed from the object is distributed throughout the chamber by vapor transport and is incident upon the detector, where it condenses. Since the detector is the only cooled surface in contact with the vapors, it collects nearly all the outgassed material. This provides high sensitivity to outgassing. The chamber may also include a mechanical stirring device for aiding vapor transport, or may be oriented so that a thermal convection current is established. Preferably, the chamber includes a snout for thermally isolating the detector and chamber so that a steep temperature gradient exists close to the detector surface. Alternatively, the detector has a coating with a high affinity for outgassed materials of interest. The chamber, detector, and object are at nearly the same temperature and the outgassed materials preferentially condense on the detector due to the high affinity of the coating for the outgassed materials.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a method of forming polymer structures comprising applying a solution of a diblock copolymer assembly comprising at least one diblock copolymer that forms lamellae, to a neutral surface of a substrate having a chemical pattern thereon, the chemical pattern comprising alternating pinning and neutral regions that are chemically distinct and which have a chemical pattern spatial frequency given by the number of paired sets of pinning and neutral regions along a given direction on the substrate; and forming domains comprising blocks of the diblock copolymer. The domains form by lateral segregation of the blocks. At least one domain has an affinity for the pinning regions and forms on the pinning region, the domains so formed on the pinning region are aligned with the underlying chemical pattern, and domains that do not form on the pinning region form adjacent to and are aligned with the domains formed on the pinning regions. In this way, a structure comprising repeating sets of domains is formed on the chemical pattern with a spatial frequency given by the number of repeating sets of domains in the given direction, that is at least twice that of the chemical pattern spatial frequency. Methods of forming the chemical patterns, and pattern transfer methods using patterned domains, are also disclosed.

    摘要: An avalanche-type detector circuit includes an avalanche-type photon detector device, a coupling capacitor, a bias network, a first transmission line and a second transmission line. The coupling capacitor has a first terminal that is coupled to a first terminal of the avalanche-type photon detector device. A first terminal of the bias network is coupled to the first terminal of the avalanche-type photon detector device, while a second terminal of the bias network is coupled to a bias voltage so that the avalanche-type photon detector device is reverse biased. A first end of the first transmission line is coupled to a second terminal of the coupling capacitor, and second end of the first transmission line is terminated by an open-circuit termination. A first end of the second transmission line is coupled to a second terminal of the avalanche-type photon detector device. The second end of the second transmission line is terminated by a short-circuit termination. A bias pulse voltage Vpulse is coupled to the second terminal of the coupling capacitor such that the bias pulse voltage reverse biases the avalanche-type photon detector device to be greater than a reverse breakdown voltage Vbr of the avalanche-type photon detector device during a duration of the bias pulse voltage Vpulse. A round-trip propagation delay along the first transmission line is substantially equal to a round-trip propagation delay along the second transmission line.

    摘要: Methods are disclosed for forming topographical features. In one method, a pre-patterned structure is provided which comprises i) a support member having a surface and ii) an element for topographically guiding segregation of a polymer mixture including a first polymer and a second polymer, the element comprising a feature having a sidewall adjoined to the surface. The polymer mixture is disposed on the pre-patterned structure, wherein the disposed polymer mixture has contact with the sidewall and the surface. The first polymer and the second polymer are segregated in a plane parallel to the surface, thereby forming a segregated structure comprising a first polymer domain and a second polymer domain. The first polymer domain and/or the second polymer domain are lithographically patterned, thereby forming topographical features comprising at least one of i) a first feature comprising a lithographically patterned first polymer domain and ii) a second feature comprising a lithographically patterned second polymer domain.
