Provided are methods of void-free tungsten fill of high aspect ratio features. According to various embodiments, the methods involve a reduced temperature chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process to fill the features with tungsten. In certain embodiments, the process temperature is maintained at less than about 350° C. during the chemical vapor deposition to fill the feature. The reduced-temperature CVD tungsten fill provides improved tungsten fill in high aspect ratio features, provides improved barriers to fluorine migration into underlying layers, while achieving similar thin film resistivity as standard CVD fill. Also provided are methods of depositing thin tungsten films having low-resistivity. According to various embodiments, the methods involve performing a reduced temperature low resistivity treatment on a deposited nucleation layer prior to depositing a tungsten bulk layer and/or depositing a bulk layer via a reduced temperature CVD process followed by a high temperature CVD process.

An intelligent locking device comprises a microprocessor, a locking element and a control button electrically connected to the microprocessor respectively. The locking element locks a removable HDD to a computer. The control button generates trigger signals in response to manual push thereon. When receiving the trigger signal, the microprocessor detects whether there is data transferring between the removable HDD and the computer, if there is data transferring, the microprocessor terminates data transferring and then sends a driving signal to the locking element; if not, the microprocessor directly sends a driving signal to the locking element. When receiving the driving signal, the locking element releases the lock between the removable HDD and the computer to permit the removable HDD to be safely ejected. Meanwhile, a removable HDD receiving system with the locking device and a method for preventing the removable HDD from being wrongly ejected from the receiving system are disclosed.

In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes an apparatus having an averager to receive differential output voltages of a transmitter and generate an average transmitter output voltage. A comparator is to compare the average transmitter output voltage to a reference voltage and generate a difference therebetween. An integrator is to integrate the difference between the average transmitter output voltage and the reference voltage over time. The integrated difference is fed back to the transmitter to bias the transmitter.

An error protection method for multimedia improves data recovery and channel throughput in channels which cause a random error and a burst error by using a rate compatible punctured convolutional code (RCPC) and an automatic retransmission on request (ARQ). In a process of decoding a plurality of packets of given information, the error protection method includes the steps of a) decoding one of the plurality of packets, b) decoding another packet when an error occurs during the decoding in step a), c) decoding a combination of the packets from steps a) and b) or a third packet when an error occurs in step b), and d) repeating step c) until the decoding error no longer occurs. The error protection method has the characteristics of both Type-1 and Type-2 ARQ methods. Therefore, one can obtain constant channel throughput in a channel containing burst errors, a channel containing random errors, and a channel in which the two types of error patterns coexist simultaneously.
摘要:
6-methoxy gossypol and 6,6′-dimethoxy gossypol were isolated from cottonseeds. Bioactivities of these two gossypol derivatives and gossypol were investigated regarding their antioxidant activities, DNA damage prevention ability, anti-cancer, and anti-trypanosomal activities. Both methoxy compounds had nearly equivalent bioactivities, but gossypol showed greater bioactivities than either methoxy derivative on free radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and DNA damage prevention ability. Gossypol and its methoxy derivatives inhibited growth of three cancer cell lines, i.e., SiHa (cervical cancer), MCF-7 (breast cancer) and Caco-2 (colon cancer) cells, in a dose dependent manner. These three compounds also significantly inhibited growth of trypanosome T. brucei, the cause of African Sleeping Sickness, which affects thousands in western and central Africa.

A system and method for synchronizing and coordinating parallel, automated fault injection processes against storage area network arrays. In an exemplary embodiment, the stress test system includes a hierarchical lock file acting as a repository for lock and state data of storage area network resources. Further, such embodiment includes a plurality of knowledge sources communicatively coupled to the hierarchical lock file for monitoring activities of the storage area network resources and injecting faults. In addition, the system includes a controller for controlling access to the hierarchical lock file and coordinating activities of the plurality of knowledge sources. The plurality of knowledge sources are individual stress action words which are utilized by the hierarchical lock file to coordinate multiple, parallel stress tests against storage area network components without requiring modifications to the underlying code to be made.
摘要:
Several derivatives of naphthalene, including 1′-acetonaphthone, 2′-acetonaphthone, 1-methoxynaphthalene, and 2-methoxynaphthalene, were discovered to be effective toxicants and repellents of termites, and resulted in significant reduction in termite feeding activity. For example, 2′-acetonaphthone was found to be an effective repellent and feeding deterrent of termites. Termites exposed to concentrations as low as 8 mg/kg sand exhibited a significant reduction in tunneling and feeding activity. Moreover, some of the dead termites had symptoms indicative of a failure to molt. At concentrations ≧20 μg/cm2, 2′-acetonaphthone was a strong repellent. Interestingly, at 160-fold lower concentration (0.125 μg/cm2), 2′-acetonaphthone stimulated termite feeding activity. As a sand barrier, 2′-acetonaphthone significantly inhibited tunneling and feeding activity in concentrations from 8.33 to 35.0 mg/kg. Molting problems were also identified in termites exposed to 2′-acetonaphthone.

An assembly of image-sensing chip and circuit boardwith inward wire bonding, including an image-sensing chip, a circuit board and a glass board. The circuit board is formed with a window and several wire bonding slots. An image-sensing chip is adhered to the circuit board. A wire bonding area is defined between the periphery of the image-sensing area and the bond pads of the image-sensing chip. By means of the wire bonding area, wires are inward bonded, that is, toward the image-sensing area from the bond pads through the wire bonding slots to the electric contacts of the circuit board. The glass board is disposed on the circuit board to block the window corresponding to the image-sensing area. Glue material is airtight filled around the image-sensing chip and the glass board and in the wire bonding slots of the circuit board for ensuring electric connection between the bond pads and the electric contacts.
