Abstract: A method and apparatus for mechanical and/or chemical-mechanical planarization of microelectronic substrates. In one embodiment, a conditioning device for removing waste matter from a microelectronic planarizing medium has a support assembly with a support member and a conditioning head attached to the support member. The support member may be a pivoting arm or gantry assembly that carries the condition head over the planarizing medium. The conditioning head may have a non-contact conditioning element that transmits a form of non-contact energy to waste matter on the planarizing medium. The non-contact conditioning element, for example, may be an emitter that transmits a selected waveform capable of penetrating the planarizing medium and the waste matter on the planarizing medium. In operation, the selected non-contact energy may impart energy to the waste matter that weakens or breaks bonds in the waste matter and/or bonds between the planarizing medium and the waste matter.

Abstract: Crop-specific automated irrigation include environmental medium and management of nutrients. Operation of an irrigation apparatus can be regulated according to specific water demand of a crop. The water demand can be assessed by evaluating water content conditions of the environmental medium comprising the crop, medium characteristics, and/or nutrient delivery and transport characteristics at the medium. Regulation of operation of the irrigation apparatus can comprise control of one or more of water supply to the apparatus, positioning and/or movement of the irrigation apparatus, or configuration of sensing devices for collection of information suitable for such regulation.
