Abstract:
A lower electrode assembly useful for supporting a semiconductor substrate in a plasma processing chamber includes a temperature controlled lower base plate, an upper plate, a mounting groove surrounding a bond layer and an edge seal comprising an elastomeric band having an outer concave surface in an uncompressed state, the band mounted in the groove such that upper and lower ends of the band are axially compressed and a maximum outward bulging of the band is no greater than a predetermined distance.
Abstract:
A method is provided for treating a bipolar ESC having a front surface and a back surface, the front surface including an anodized layer. The method includes eliminating the anodized layer, disposing a new anodized layer onto the front surface, and treating the new anodized layer with water to seal the new anodized layer.

Abstract:
The present invention includes methods, kits and bandages that accommodate a medical device extending from an incision in a patient. The bandage includes an outer surface, inner absorbent layer and one or more closure mechanisms. The outer surface includes a slit extending from an outer peripheral edge to an inner peripheral edge that forms an aperture to accommodate a medical device. The inner absorbent layer is in contact with the outer surface and at least partially spans the aperture to accommodate the medical device. The one or more closure mechanisms are used to substantially seal the slit. The bandage is positioned about the incision and secured about the medical device for absorption.
Abstract:
An insert earphone comprises a housing and at least one transducer that is located in the housing. The transducer is adapted to receive electrical energy and to responsively convert the electrical energy into acoustic energy for presentation to an eardrum of a user. The transducer is positioned within the housing so as to be in close proximity to the eardrum of the user when the housing is inserted into the ear canal. At least one sealing member is coupled to the housing. The at least one sealing member is adapted to provide an acoustic seal within the ear canal of the user.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for reducing vibrational effects of track chain assembly catenary hang is disclosed. A work machine includes a pair of track roller assemblies one positioned on each side of the work machine. The vibration reducing apparatus and method includes repositioning undercarriage components to vary the catenary hang from one side of the work machine to the other.
