    Abstract: An improved apparatus for CVD processing is described wherein a wafer mounted on a vertically movable susceptor beneath a gas outlet or showerhead is raised into contact with a shield ring which normally rests on a ring support in the chamber. The shield ring engages the frontside edge of the wafer, lifting the shield ring off its support, when the susceptor and the wafer 10 are raised to a deposition position in the chamber. The shield ring, by engaging the frontside edge of the wafer, shields the edge of the top surface of the wafer, as well as the end edge and the backside of the wafer, during the deposition. Matching tapered edges, respectively, on the susceptor and the shield ring permit alignment of the shield ring with respect to the susceptor, and alignment of the wafer to the susceptor and the shield ring. Alignment means are also disclosed to circularly align the shield ring to its support in the chamber. Multi-unit shield rings permit the use of wider shield rings and prevent cracking of the shield ring due to thermal stresses caused by temperature differences near and away from the wafer during processing. These shield rings may also have tapered edges to ensure alignment of the rings with respect to each other.

    Abstract: An integrated modular multiple chamber vacuum processing system is disclosed. The system includes a load lock, may include an external cassette elevator, and an internal load lock wafer elevator, and also includes stations about the periphery of the load lock for connecting one, two or several vacuum process chambers to the load lock chamber. A robot is mounted within the load lock and utilizes a concentric shaft drive system connected to an end effector via a dual four-bar link mechanism for imparting selected R-.theta. movement to the blade to load and unload wafers at the external elevator, internal elevator and individual process chambers. The system is uniquely adapted for enabling various types of IC processing including etch, deposition, sputtering and rapid thermal annealing chambers, thereby providing the opportunity for multiple step, sequential processing using different processes.

    Abstract: A single semiconductor laser (10) is utilized in an optical system (2) to record and readback from a recording media such as a spinning disk (24). By means of a retro-reflecting light and optical system, the same optical path can be used not only for recording, but for readback of the recorded data on the recording media (24). A polarizing beam splitter (16) causes the light beam (8) to pass through an optical system whereby both focus error and tracking error as well as the data signal can be generated. By dithering the light beam across the recorded track in accordance with data signal, a tracking error signal is generated to cause the dithering motion of the galvanometer (20) to maintain its center tracking of the recorded information. By the use of a separate beam splitter (30), a focus error signal can be detected by means of error signals from complementary detectors S1, S2 to maintain accurate focus of the applied light beam on the recording media.

    Abstract: An optical disk recorder in which the optical disk, the drive spindle and the disk drive motor are moved or pivoted in an arcuate path relative to stationary laser optics. When moved in such an arcuate path, the optical disk, spindle and drive motor have a lessened movement of inertia (compared to linear movement thereof) which permits relatively fast accessing of an optical disk without a large drive motor. The accessing system can be naturally statically balanced by placing the spindle and the drive motor or opposite sides of the pivot point.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for transferring a communications exchange using a mobile handset are described. A radio frequency (RF) signal is transmitted from a mobile handset to a base station to provide a communications exchange. The communications exchange exists between the mobile handset and a first communications device. The mobile handset automatically detects a second communications device when it is in close proximity to the second communications device. The second communications device is capable of receiving a call handoff. If the mobile handset is in close proximity to the second communications device, then a transfer request including information associated with the second communications device is received from the second communications device. The transfer request is accepted and the communications exchange is seamlessly transferred to the second communications device form the mobile handset.
