Maternal diabetes can lead to a developmental malformation of an embryo. A developmental malformation caused by maternal diabetes is commonly referred to as a diabetic embryopathy. There is currently no effective treatment for reducing or inhibiting a diabetic embryopathy. To this end, the present invention is drawn to novel methods of treating a diabetic embryopathy.

Tunable radio frequency (RF) devices, such as phase shifters and filters, are formed by depositing thin film layers on a substrate and patterning the thin film layers by various lithography techniques. A thin film metal layer is patterned to form a plurality of capacitors and inductors, leaving at least two grounding regions that lie closely adjacent the capacitors and inductors. As patterned portions of the grounding regions are electrically isolated from each other. Performance of the devices are improved by electrically bridging the differential potential grounding regions.

A method is presented for compensating for the effects of charge neutralization in calculating the ‘true’ ion dose, i.e., the dose assuming no changes of charge state of ions during an implantation process. An ion beam is generated under normal operating conditions, e.g., stable vacuum exists, and no target is being implanted. At least one additional detector would be positioned in the target chamber, and a dose measurement conducted simultaneously with a measurement of the beam current with the Faraday, which is located outside of the charge neutralization region, to establish a reference ratio. A wafer is then placed at the target location, and simultaneous measurements made with the additional detector and Faraday, as before, to determine the ratio between the beam current and the detector during wafer implantation. Any drift from the reference ratio indicates the dose error due to charge neutralization from wafer outgassing during implantation. Software for controlling various parameters could be configured to use the ratio drift data to change the dose counter to compensate for the dose error due to charge neutralization.

A Faraday system for measuring ion beam current in an ion implanter or other ion beam treatment system includes a Faraday cup body defining a chamber which has an entrance aperture for receiving an ion beam, a suppression electrode positioned in proximity to the entrance aperture to produce electric fields for inhibiting escape of electrons from the chamber, and a magnet assembly positioned to produce magnetic fields for inhibiting escape of electrons from the chamber. The chamber may have a relatively small ratio of chamber depth to entrance aperture width.

Disclosed herein are various methods of determining characteristics of doped regions on device wafers, and a system for accomplishing same. In one illustrative embodiment, the method includes providing a device substrate comprising a plurality of masked areas, a plurality of unmasked areas, and at least one doped region formed in the substrate, determining a ratio between the unmasked areas and the masked areas for the device substrate, illuminating an area of the device substrate comprising the masked areas, the unmasked areas, and at least one doped region, and measuring an induced surface photovoltage of the device substrate while accounting for the ratio of the unmasked areas and the masked areas of the device substrate. In another illustrative embodiment, the method includes providing an SOI substrate comprised of an active layer, the active layer having a thickness, illuminating an area of the substrate using a light source having a wavelength that is sufficiently long such that an excited region created in the active layer due to the illumination does not extend beyond the thickness of the active layer, and measuring an induced surface photovoltage resulting from the illumination.

Electronic and optical (or photonic) devices with variable or switchable properties and methods used to form these devices, are disclosed. More specifically, the present invention involves forming layers of conductive material and dielectric material or materials with varying conductivity and indexes of refraction to form various electronic and optical devices. One such layer of adjustable material is formed by depositing epitaxial or reduced grain boundary barium strontium titanate on the C-plane of sapphire.
