摘要:
An avocado pitting device comprises a housing having an inner surface defining a recess. The recess is configured to receive a pit of an avocado. An engagement member projects inwardly from the housing inner surface. The engagement member is configured to engage the pit and retain the pit within the recess such that the pit is removable with the housing from the avocado.

A method of transferring a multi-variate process control model from one RF-powered plasma processing chamber (the reference chamber) to another nominally identical RF-powered plasma processing chamber (the target chamber) comprises first determining a multi-variate process control model on the reference tool based upon sensor data, 100. Then, a set of sensor data is taken for the reference chamber by running a designed experiment, 102, and a corresponding set of sensor data is taken for the target chamber using the same designed experiment, 104. The relationship between the reference and target chambers is determined by comparing the results of the designed experiments and calculating a transform matrix representing differences between the two chambers, 106. Finally, the process control model is transformed from the reference chamber to the target chamber using the transform matrix thus obtained, 108.

A method for determining the optimum number of conditioning wafers to be run following a wet clean of the walls of an RF plasma chamber 1 is based on an electrical precursor signal. Polymer build up on a plasma chamber wall during normal chamber conditioning is monitored by observing components of the fundamental RF signal. After a pre-determined number of wafers has been run, a predictive model is used to determine the total number of wafers needed to complete the conditioning cycle.
摘要:
A method of fault identification on a semiconductor manufacturing tool includes monitoring tool sensor output, establishing a fingerprint of tool states based on the plurality of sensors outputs, capturing sensor data indicative of fault conditions, building a library of such fault fingerprints, comparing present tool fingerprint with fault fingerprints to identify a fault condition and estimating the effect of such a fault condition on process output. The fault library is constructed by inducing faults in a systematic way or by adding fingerprints of known faults after they occur.

A dimensionally stable asbestos diaphragm is formed by direct coating on the foraminous cathode of an electrolytic cell from an asbestos fiber-particulate polymer slurry, followed by fusion of the thermoplastic polymer.
