摘要:
An optical encoder and method for measuring displacement information using an optical encoder uses an encoder member with multiple digital diffractive optic regions to optically diffract an incident beam of light to produce output beams of light having intensity distribution patterns, which are used to generate electrical signals that provide relative displacement information of the encoder member.

A corrosion resistant component of a plasma chamber includes a liquid crystalline polymer. In a preferred embodiment, the liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) is provided on an aluminum component having an anodized or non-anodized surface. The liquid crystalline polymer can also be provided on an alumina component. The liquid crystalline polymer can be deposited by a method such as plasma spraying. The liquid crystalline polymer may also be provided as a preformed sheet or other shape adapted to cover the exposed surfaces of the reaction chamber. Additionally, the reactor components may be made entirely from liquid crystalline polymer by machining the component from a solid block of liquid crystalline polymer or molding the component from the polymer. The liquid crystalline polymer may contain reinforcing fillers such as glass or mineral fillers.

A multi-camera time slice system and method of producing a three-dimensional (3D) integrated time slice image array uses multiple cameras to capture a subject to produce an array of subject images with transparent backgrounds. The array of subject images with transparent backgrounds is merged with an array of foreground images with transparent backgrounds and an array of background images, which are captured in a similar manner as the array of subject images, to produce the 3D integrated time slice image array.

A linear brushless DC motor uses a movable coil assembly, which includes at least one coil, an amplifier and a motor controller, that is configured to move relative to a stationary base assembly. The coil, the amplifier and the motor controller are assembled so that the coil, the amplifier and the motor controller are collectively displaced when the movable coil assembly is moved relative to the stationary base assembly.

A microstepper motor device and method of controlling the device uses a microcontroller that provides current sinusoidal values from at least one array of sinusoidal values to power circuitry of the device in response to control signals. The power circuitry is connected to a stepper motor of the device to supply power signals to the stepper motor using the current sinusoidal values. The microcontroller is configured to index the at least one array of sinusoidal values to the current sinusoidal values in response to the control signals as part of an interrupt service routine of the microcontroller. The microcontroller is further configured to transmit the current sinusoidal values to the power circuitry as part of a non-interrupt routine of the microcontroller.

摘要:
Components for use in plasma processing chambers having plasma exposed surfaces with surface roughness characteristics that promote polymer adhesion. The roughened surfaces are formed by plasma spraying a coating material such as a ceramic or high temperature polymer onto the surface of the component. The plasma sprayed components of the present invention can be used for plasma reactor components having surfaces exposed to the plasma during processing. Suitable components include chamber walls, chamber liners, baffle rings, gas distribution plates, plasma confinement rings, and liner supports. By improving polymer adhesion, the plasma sprayed component surfaces can reduce the levels of particle contamination in the process chamber thereby improving yields and reducing down-time required for cleaning and/or replacing chamber components.
