摘要:
A method is provided for forming a monolithically integrated optical filter, for example, a Fabry-Perot filter, over a substrate (10). The method comprises forming a first mirror (16) over the substrate (10). A plurality of etalon material layers (32, 34, 36, 38) are formed over the mirror (16), and a plurality of etch stop layers (42, 44, 46) are formed, one each between adjacent etalon material layers (32, 34, 36, 38). A photoresist is patterned to create an opening (54) over the top etalon material layer (38) and an etch (56) is performed down to the top etch stop layer (46). An oxygen plasma (58) may be applied to convert the etch stop layer (46) within the opening (54) to silicon dioxide (57). The photoresist patterning, etching, and applying of an oxygen plasma may be repeated as desired to obtain the desired number of levels (82, 84, 86, 88). A second mirror (72) is then formed on each of the levels (82, 84, 86, 88).

A direct imprinting process for Step and Flash Imprint Lithography includes providing (40) a substrate (12); forming (44) an etch barrier layer (14) on the substrate; patterning (46) the etch barrier layer with a template (16) while curing with ultraviolet light through the template, resulting in a patterned etch barrier layer and a residual layer (20) on the substrate; and performing (48) an etch to substantially remove the residual layer. Optionally, a patterning layer (52) may be formed on the substrate (12) prior to forming the etch barrier layer (14). Additionally, an adhesive layer (13) may be applied (42) between the substrate (12) and the etch barrier layer (14).
摘要:
A memory module is disclosed. The memory module comprises a voltage supply; a memory interface coupled to the voltage supply; a plurality of memory components; and a voltage stabilizer converter (VSC) coupled to the memory interface and to the plurality of memory components, the VSC for ensuring that the plurality of memory components operate at their optimum performance level. A voltage stabilizer memory module (VSMM) in accordance with the present invention includes a printed circuit board (PCB) that contains memory chips, discrete components, a voltage stabilizer converter, and other related components. The voltage stabilizer converter uses system voltage supply as its input and its output is the voltage supply for the DRAM components. Accordingly, the VSSM is more adaptable, more stable and has better performance than conventional memory modules.
