摘要: In a system having a number of semiconductor processing modules sharing a common vacuum environment, a mid-entry load lock is provided to permit insertion and removal of wafers into the vacuum environment at a point between various other robotic handlers, process modules, and load locks. This arrangement permits increased flexibility in scheduling when multiple wafers are processed concurrently.

摘要: Software for controlling processes in a heterogeneous semiconductor manufacturing environment may include a wafer-centric database, a real-time scheduler using a neural network, and a graphical user interface displaying simulated operation of the system. These features may be employed alone or in combination to offer improved usability and computational efficiency for real time control and monitoring of a semiconductor manufacturing process. More generally, these techniques may be usefully employed in a variety of real time control systems, particularly systems requiring complex scheduling decisions or heterogeneous systems constructed of hardware from numerous independent vendors.

摘要: In known magnetic resonance devices shimming is applied on the basis of maps of field inhomogeneities obtained from two images of a slice of an object by formation of a ratio image thereof. This ratio image is processed in order to obtain shimming information. These known methods are time-consuming and cumbersome. The invention proposes a fast and simple shimming method which utilizes only one measuring sequence or a few measuring sequences. The shimming gradient (-dG) is determined from a time shift between an anticipated temporal position (t1) and a measured temporal position (t1') of a maximum of an echo resonance signal (ec) produced by the measuring sequence.

摘要: A two piece shell is employed for intermediate and long term storage of substrates. The shell is formed of two halves that can be juxtaposed in vacuum and externally vented, with the internal vacuum retaining the halves in vacuum-sealed engagement. One of the halves also provides a vacuum-sealing perimeter for selectively sealing to a process chamber during loading and/or unloading of the shell with a substrate. A vacuum monitor or the like may be employed to monitor pressure during storage and provide alerts if the vacuum within the sealed shell is compromised.
