Abstract:
Provided is a compound semiconductor deposition method of adjusting the luminous wavelength of a compound semiconductor of a ternary or higher system in a nanometer order in depositing the compound semiconductor on a substrate. In the compound semiconductor deposition method of depositing a compound semiconductor of a ternary or higher system on a substrate, propagation light of a smaller energy than a desired ideal excitation energy for the compound semiconductor is irradiated onto the substrate 13 while depositing the compound semiconductor on the substrate 13, near-field light is generated based on the irradiated propagation light from fine particles of the compound semiconductor deposited on the substrate 13, new vibrational levels for the compound semiconductor are formed in multiple stages based on the generated near-field light, and a component in the compound semiconductor corresponding to the excitation energy is excited with the propagation light through a vibrational level, among the new vibrational levels, which has an excitation energy equal to or smaller than the energy of the propagation light is excited to desorb the component.
Abstract:
A method and system for patterning a substrate with reduced defectivity is described. Once a pattern is formed in a layer of radiation-sensitive material using lithographic techniques, the substrate is rinsed to remove residual developing solution and/or other material. Thereafter, a first chemical treatment is performed using a first chemical solution, and a second chemical treatment is performed using a second chemical solution, wherein the second chemical solution has a different chemical composition than the first chemical solution. In one embodiment, the first chemical solution is selected to reduce pattern collapse, and the second chemical solution is selected to reduce pattern deformity, such as line edge roughness (LER) and/or line width roughness (LWR).

Abstract:
The invention concerns a device (1) for wetting a medical equipment component (20) with a liquid medium (M), having a dispenser (10) for applying the liquid medium (M) to a section (200) of the component (20) that is to be wetted. A device of this type is characterized by a suction device (12) for drawing off at least a portion of the liquid medium (M) from the section (200) of the component (20) that is to be wetted. The invention furthermore concerns a method for wetting a component. In this manner, a device and a method for wetting a component with a liquid medium is created, with which a wetting procedure can be executed in an at least partially automated manner, at least partially reducing the risk thereby of blockage at the opening of the component as a result of too much liquid being applied.

Abstract:
A quantum dot forming method for forming quantum dots on a surface of a substrate includes exciting a substrate surface with a laser beam having a standing wave which is irradiated from one side of the substrate along the surface of the substrate to excite the surface of the substrate at an interval of one half of a wavelength of the standing wave, and forming a quantum dot with a film differing in lattice constant from a base film forming the surface of the substrate by allowing the film differing in lattice constant to grow on the substrate to form the quantum dots in excited spots of the surface of the substrate.

Abstract:
Described herein are systems and methods for deposition of films using energy dispensers combined with film-material dispensers. The processes achieve high energy efficiency and speed by deposition of film materials that absorb energy in a designed radiation band, coupled with delivery of energy using a radiation source with a band matched to the absorbance band of the film deposition material. It is possible to use the energy for drying, fusion, chemical conversion, sintering of the deposited materials to produce films for visual, graphic or electronic applications. The process does not cause significant heating of substrates. The energy can be delivered to specified material deposition locations, thus using substantially less energy than bulk heating.
Abstract:
Apparatuses useful in printing, fixing devices and methods of preheating substrates in apparatuses useful in printing are provided. An exemplary embodiment of the apparatuses useful in printing includes a first member including a first surface; a second member including a second surface forming a nip with the first surface; a substrate cooler disposed downstream from the nip to receive a first substrate exiting the nip, the substrate cooler removing heat from the first substrate by conduction; a substrate pre-heater disposed upstream from the nip; and a first heat transfer system for transferring heat from the substrate cooler to the substrate pre-heater. The substrate pre-heater applies the heat to conductively pre-heat a second substrate before the second substrate enters the nip.
