摘要:
The present invention is directed to a computing system which contains a plurality of subunits. Each subunit contains a computing subcomponent and a subunit supervisor subcomponent. The subunit supervisor component monitors functions of the subunit and output signals corresponding to the monitored functions. The plurality of subunits are contained within a housing. The housing contains a housing supervisor subunit which receives the output signals of each of the plurality of subunits. The supervisor subunit outputs the accumulated signals to an input/output device for monitoring the plurality of subunits and for sending commands to each subunit.

A high efficiency thermal interposer comprising a first hollow disk and second hollow disk, held together by thermally isolating fasteners. The fasteners keep the disks from touching one another. In an illustrative embodiment of the invention, the first disk is the low temperature disk portion and the second disk is the high temperature disk portion of the heat shield. Furthermore, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the space between the disks is filled with small thermally conductive particles (e.g., stainless steel spheres) which are in thermal contact with the high temperature disk; but which are not in contact with the low temperature disk. The thermal interposer/heat shield includes means for introducing cold jets of air into the cavity containing the particles, means for circulating the air therebetween, and means through which the air can exit from the cavity to carry away the heat picked up from the particles inside the cavity. The novel thermal interposer has a low mass, is compact and can achieve a temperature drop that will permit high powered HAT devices to be used in conjuction with temperature sensitive electronic orientation means, such as robot arms.

The invention provides lightweight packaging of portable electronic apparatus by using the combined structural properties of an enclosure, that houses the interwired heat producing electronic signal devices of the apparatus, to provide coolant movement and direction, locally selectable physical protection and shock resistance and electrical shielding. It achieves the packaging benefits by having; a laminated enclosure member structure that has an internal device supporting lamination and an external wear resistant lamination on each side of a layer of a material that has the combined physical properties of selectably interrelated coolant permeability and density, non-corrosiveness and electrical conductivity; heat generating signal processing devices mounted on the internal lamination; positioned holes through the laminations on each side of the permeable material layer that provide entrance, exit and directing openings for a coolant fluid, including air, that is brought in from the outside, and, propelling the coolant at least conventionally by the heat from the signal processing devices and additionally by a separate fan located in the enclosure so that the heated coolant is exhausted to the outside. Localized shock resistance is imparted by selective change in the density of the permeable layer.

Process for shaping conductors critically spaced on a carrier that are bonded to contact locations on a substrate surface. The conductors are cantilevered with each adjacent conductor bonded to a contact location that is a different distance from the carrier. Each conductor remains in the plane of the support of the carrier to the vicinity of its respective contact location where it is shaped to extend nearly vertically toward the substrate then horizontally across the contact location exerting pressure on the contact location.

A method of increasing conductivity of a refractory metal film disposed upon a substrate includes exposing the refractory metal film to an atmosphere comprising a silane of the form Si.sub.n H.sub.(2n+2), where n is a positive integer, while subjecting the refractory metal film to a temperature in excess of 700 degrees Celsius and to a base pressure not exceeding 10.sup.-8 torr for a time period which is chosen to be sufficiently long to increase the conductivity of the refractory metal film to a correspondingly sufficient degree.

A method is disclosed for forming an epitaxial layer of a semiconductor material over a metal structure disposed upon a surface of a semiconductor substrate, the metal being characterized by a negative Gibbs free energy for the formation of a compound of the metal and the semiconductor material. The method comprises the steps of: a) placing the substrate in a reactor vessel having a base pressure in the ultra high vacuum range, b) bringing the substrate to an elevated temperature, and c) flowing, over said substrate, a halogen-free precursor gas of molecules comprising the semiconductor material. Typically, the metal structure characterized by feature dimensions of less than 2.0 microns. Preferably, the metal is tungsten, the semiconductor material is silicon and the gas comprises a silane of the form SinH(2n+2), where n is a positive integer.
