摘要:
Embodiments of the invention relate to methods for depositing silicon-containing materials on a substrate. In one example, a method for selectively and epitaxially depositing a silicon-containing material is provided which includes positioning and heating a substrate containing a crystalline surface and a non-crystalline surface within a process chamber, exposing the substrate to a process gas containing neopentasilane, and depositing an epitaxial layer on the crystalline surface. In another example, a method for blanket depositing a silicon-containing material is provide which includes positioning and heating a substrate containing a crystalline surface and feature surfaces within a process chamber and exposing the substrate to a process gas containing neopentasilane and a carbon source to deposit a silicon carbide blanket layer across the crystalline surface and the feature surfaces. Generally, the silicon carbide blanket layer contains a silicon carbide epitaxial layer selectively deposited on the crystalline surface.

A light apparatus includes one or more light pipes and/or diffusers to transfer and/or diffuse light from a few point light sources to a broader area and to other points. A hollow light pipe includes a light transmissive sidewall that encompasses an interior space, which receives and hides control circuitry for the light sources therein. A bottom end surface of the hollow light pipe is disposed adjacent to one or more light sources and transmits the light therefrom over a relatively large, uniform area. A solid core light pipe has a light receiving end and a light dispersion end having a reflective facet therein. The reflective facet includes a depression forming a reflective surface angularly displaced from a longitudinal axis of the solid core light pipe. A light diffuser surrounding a point source of light is adapted to cause the point source to look like a flame. A light apparatus including the hollow light pipe and the solid core light pipe and/or the light diffuser is adapted to provide a plurality of different light effects, including a multi-color light show through the hollow light pipe and a flame flicker effect through the solid core light pipe.

A fluid compression system includes a compressor that is operable to produce a flow of compressed fluid and a coolant compressor that is operable to produce a flow of coolant. A base includes at least one polymer wall that at least partially defines a reservoir space. The base supports the compressor and the coolant compressor. A first tube is at least partially positioned within the reservoir space and is in fluid communication with the compressor to receive the flow of compressed air and a second tube is at least partially positioned within the reservoir space and is in fluid communication with the coolant compressor to receive the flow of coolant.
摘要:
A method of preparing a clean substrate surface for blanket or selective epitaxial deposition of silicon-containing and/or germanium-containing films. In addition, a method of growing the silicon-containing and/or germanium-containing films, where both the substrate cleaning method and the film growth method are carried out at a temperature below 750° C., and typically at a temperature from about 700° C. to about 500° C. The cleaning method and the film growth method employ the use of radiation having a wavelength ranging from about 310 nm to about 120 nm in the processing volume in which the silicon-containing film is grown. Use of this radiation in combination with particular partial pressure ranges for the reactive cleaning or film-forming component species enable the substrate cleaning and epitaxial film growth at temperatures below those previously known in the industry.
摘要:
A method of displaying information is comprised of displaying a representation associated with certain information and displaying, proximate to the representation, an alphanumeric code assigned thereto. The code is comprised of one or more keystrokes needed to select the information associated with the representation. The information may be hierarchically arranged such that a plurality of representations is at the same level in the hierarchical arrangement. In that case, displaying a code may include displaying a code comprised of a common letter/number and a unique number/letter, respectively, proximate to the plurality of representations. Another aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a method of organizing information for a display wherein the information is represented in the display by a plurality of indicium. A code comprised of the input needed to select the information associated with its indicium is assigned. The assigned code is displayed proximate to the indicium representative of the information to which the code is associated. Other aspects of the present disclosure include computer readable media carrying instructions for carrying out or enabling the disclosed methods as well as computers and computer systems for carrying out or enabling the disclosed methods. Because of the rules governing abstracts, this abstract should not be used in construing the claims.

Thermoplastic bicomponent binder fiber can be combined with other media, fibers and other filtration components to form a thermally bonded filtration media. The filtration media can be used in filter units, such as breather caps. Such filter units can be placed in the stream of a mobile fluid and can remove a particulate and/or fluid mist load from the mobile stream. The unique combination of media fiber, bicomponent binder fiber and other filtration additives and components provide a filtration media having unique properties in filtration applications.
