摘要:
When etching is performed with respect to a silicon-containing material by using a dry etching apparatus having a dual power source, the application of bias power is initiated before oxidization proceeds at a surface of the silicon-containing material. Specifically, the application of the bias power is initiated before the application of source power is initiated. Alternatively, the source power and the bias power are applied such that the effective value of the source power reaches a second predetermined value after the effective value of the bias power reaches a first predetermined value.

A silicon oxide film is formed on a semiconductor substrate made of silicon. Subsequently, a resist film containing carbon is formed on the silicon oxide film, and thereafter the formed resist film is patterned, thereby forming a resist pattern. Subsequently, the resist pattern is exposed to a sulfur dioxide gas, and then dry etching is performed on the silicon oxide film by using the resist pattern exposed to the sulfur dioxide gas as a mask.

The angular position of a notch (17) is determined on the basis of data provided by second notch detectors (24a) and (24b) and an encoder (25). A controller (38) turns a rotational arm (22) for angular displacement such that holders (26) and (27) are displaced in a circumferential direction B from the notch (17), and then the holders (26) and (27) hold a wafer (19). Since the holders (26) and (27) are in touch with edges in which the notch (17) is not formed, the first notch detector (23) is able to detect the notch (17) without difficulty. Thus the position of the wafer (19) relative to the rotational arm (22) does not need to be changed several times depending on positions at which the holders (26) and (27) hold the wafer (19), which is necessary in the prior technology. The aligner (20) touches parts, not including the notch (17), of the wafer (19) and is capable of adjusting the position of the wafer (19) in a short time.
摘要:
The present invention generates watermark from ID information that uniquely identifies a program distribution destination, inserts the generated watermark in a program, and prevents the program from operating correctly if the watermark is tampered with, and also inserts the same watermark verification code in a program regardless of the distribution destination. By this means, it is possible to prevent detection of watermark verification code constituting a watermark by means of collusion attack.

An improved information transmission method is provided for use in a communication network. The information transmission method combines a bandwidth control technique with a caching technique, thereby making it possible to use allocated bandwidth in an efficient manner.

In the present invention, with respect to content that is predicted to be referred to after moving based on a current position, moving direction and/or moving speed of a terminal apparatus, the terminal apparatus inquires of a communication information area managing section whether a position associated with the content is in a communication area, and when the position is outside the communication area, selects at least one communication section with communication-capable channel quality, and acquires and stores the content predicted to be referred to using the selected communication section. It is thereby possible to refer to the content when a position in response to the content predicted to be referred to is outside a communication-capable area.
摘要:
A mask layer and a to-be-processed layer are irradiated with light to measure interference light formed of reflected lights from the mask layer and reflected lights from the to-be-processed layer. Thereafter, an interference component brought by the mask layer is removed from the waveform of the measured interference light, thereby calculating the waveform of the interference light brought by the to-be-processed layer. The thickness of the remaining to-be-processed layer is determined on the basis of the calculated waveform of the interference light and the thickness of the remaining to-be-processed layer is compared with a desired thickness thereof. In this way, an end point of processing on the to-be-processed layer is detected.
摘要:
A projector is often positioned so that its optical axis is at an imperfect orthogonal angle with respect to a projection screen. This position causes a keystone distortion as well as imperfect focus in the projected image. To correct these undesirable problems, initially, a lens and/or an image-forming plate is independently repositioned to bring the projected image into focus based upon user input data. The keystone distortion is also corrected by redrawing the image on an image-forming surface based upon additional user input data.
摘要:
A cover glass frame as a second frame body mounting thereto a cover glass is fitted onto an objective lens frame, which is a first frame body mounting thereto a tip end lens and an objective lens as optical members, in a manner to be movable in a direction of optical axis, and is fixed after having been adjusted in position in the direction of optical axis. The objective lens frame and the cover glass frame thus fitted and fixed are fitted into and joined to a cylindrical member to constitute an imaging unit, which is then arranged in a tip end portion of an insertion part of an endoscope. Thereby, focus adjustment can be performed on the optical members, which are assembled into the imaging unit, and a tip end side portion of the insertion part of the endoscope can be made small in outer diameter to prevent entry of vapor into the imaging unit even when autoclave sterilization is carried out.
