    摘要: The invention generally provides an apparatus and a method of removing metal oxides, particularly copper oxides and aluminum oxides, from a substrate surface. Primarily, the invention eliminates sputtering of copper oxide from the bottom of an interconnect feature onto the side walls of an interconnect feature, thereby preventing diffusion of the copper atom through the dielectric material and degradation of the device. The invention also eliminates sputtering of the copper oxides onto the chamber side walls that may eventually flake off and cause defects on the substrate. The method of reducing metal oxides from a substrate surface comprises placing the substrate within a plasma processing chamber, flowing a processing gas comprising hydrogen into the chamber, and maintaining a plasma of the processing gas within the chamber through inductive coupling. The method is preferably performed using a dual frequency etch chamber wherein adjustments are made in the processing gas flow, the RF powers and the exhaust pumping speeds to eliminate sputtering of the copper oxide and to maximize the reduction reaction.

    摘要: A data processing system includes a processor core and a hardware module. The processor core performs tasks on data packets. The hardware module stores a first ordering scope identifier at a first storage location of the ordering scope manager. The first ordering scope identifier indicates a first ordering scope that a first task is operating in. The ordering scope manager increments the first ordering scope identifier to create a new ordering scope identifier. In response to determining that the processor core is authorized to transition the first task from the first ordering scope to a second ordering scope associated with the new ordering scope identifier, the ordering scope manager provides hint information to the processor core. The processor core transitions from the first ordering scope to the second ordering scope without completing a task switch in response to the hint information.

    摘要: In one or more embodiments, a data processing system can include at least one core capable of executing instructions of an instruction set architecture and a triggered memory map access (tMMA) system coupled to the at least one core. The tMMA system can receive one or more events and, in response, perform one or more actions. For example, the actions can include transactions which can include a write to a an address of the memory map, a read from an address of the memory map, a read followed by write to two respective addresses of the memory map, and/or a fetch transaction. A result of a transaction (e.g., data read, data written, error, etc.) can be used in generating a trace message. For example, the tMMA system can generate a trace message that includes the result of the transaction and send the trace message to a trace message bus.

    摘要: A liquid crystal lens cell set includes a plurality of liquid crystal lenses overlapping to each other. Each of the liquid crystal lenses is supported between a pair of flat layers. One of the layers supports a planar electrode made of ITO. The other electrode, also formed of ITO, is supported in the center of the opposing substrate and projects toward the center of the liquid crystal layer. A power supply creates a potential difference between the electrodes and imposes a non-uniform electric field on the liquid crystal modules which aligns them in which a way as to act as a lens. By varying voltage between the electrodes the focal length of the lens may be controlled. A central electrode may be in the form of a beam or of a pointed tip. An electrode having a central hole may be associated with the central electrode or the planar electrode.
