    Abstract: A spark plug capable of removing the remaining electric charges is proposed. The spark plug can be installed in a vehicle and has an insulating body, a center electrode, a conductive housing and a conductive wire. The center electrode is passed through the insulating body. The conductive housing is disposed outside the insulating body. One end of the conductive wire is connected to the conductive housing and the other end of the conductive wire is fixed on a negative electrode of a battery of the vehicle. Since the electric charges remaining in the spark plug can be removed by the conductive wire after the high-voltage current sent from the ignition system induces the sparks, the present invention can avoid the damage of the spark plug to keep the spark plug in good status, maintain the efficiency of the engine, and make the car safer in usage.

    Abstract: An electroplating apparatus includes a cathode structure, an anode structure, a power supply, and a pressurized electrolyte source. The cathode structure is configured to engage a perimeter portion of a workpiece such as a semiconductor wafer, and the anode structure includes an outlet. The power supply is coupled between the cathode structure and the anode structure. The pressurized electrolyte source is coupled to the anode structure to provide an electrically continuous fluid jet of an electrolyte from the outlet to be directed to a surface of the workpiece that is to be electroplated. A method for electroplating a workpiece includes electrically engaging a perimeter portion of the workpiece with a cathode structure, and directing an electrically continuous fluid jet of electrolyte having positively charged ions towards a surface of the workpiece that is to be electroplated. Preferably, there is a mechanism for providing relative motion between the workpiece and the jet of electrolytes, such as a mechanism for moving the electrically continuous fluid jet of electrolyte to a number of radial positions as the workpiece is rotated around an axis of rotation.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring sheet resistance and thickness of thin films and substrates. A four-point probe assembly engages the surface of a film on a substrate, and the thickness of the substrate is determined from the point of contact between the probes and film. A measuring apparatus then outputs a voltage waveform which applies a voltage to probes of the probe assembly. An inverter inverts the voltage and provides the inverted voltage on another probe of the probe assembly, thus inducing a current in these probes of the four point probe and through the surface of the film. Two other probes measure a voltage in the film created by the current. The voltages on the current probes provide a voltage close to zero at the other probes, thus allowing these other probes to measure voltages with greater precision. The current created by the voltage waveform and the voltage created across the inner probes are measured for each voltage level of the waveform. A sheet resistance of the film is determined by calculating the slope of a least square fit line of the measured current and voltage. The sheet resistance is proportional to the slope of the least square line. The thickness of the film is calculated by dividing the film resistivity by the calculated sheet resistance.

    Abstract: A method for measuring surface topography characterized by making multiple scans of the surface with a laser scanning unit and utilizing the multiple scans to create representations of the surface's topography. The surface topography data can also be used to calculate the compressive or tensile stress caused by a thin film applied to the surface of a semiconductor wafer. The apparatus of the present invention scans a laser beam across a surface in an x direction, and detects displacements of a reflected portion of the laser beam in a z direction. A pair of photodetectors are used to translate z direction displacements of the reflected beam into analog signals which are digitized and input into a microcomputer for analysis. The multiple scans of the surface are preferably accomplished by placing the workpiece on a pedestal which can be rotated to various angular positions.
