摘要： To detect core-wide and regional neutron flux oxcillations in a nuclear reactor core induced by thermal-hydraulic instabilities, local power range monitoring (LPRM) strings radially distributed throughout the core and having plural vertically spaced neutron flux detectors are locally assigned to individual oscillation power range monitoring (OPRM) cells radially distributed throughout the core. Groups of OPRM cells are assigned to different OPRM channels based on their geographical positions. Detector signals of the LPRM strings assigned to each OPRM cell are processed pursuant to a unique trip algorithm to detect neutron flux oscillations, and, upon meeting prescribed amplitude and frequency criteria, the assigned OPRM channel is tripped. Suppression of a thermal hydraulic instability is initiated when at least two OPRM channels assigned to geographically adjacent OPRM cells are tripped.

摘要： An apparatus for performing contaminant sensitive processing on a substrate. A substrate load chamber receives the substrate from an ambient contaminant laden environment, and isolates the substrate from the ambient contaminant laden environment. The substrate load chamber further forms a first environment of intermediate cleanliness around the substrate. A substrate pass through chamber receives the substrate from the substrate load chamber, and isolates the substrate from the intermediate cleanliness of the first environment of the substrate load chamber. The substrate pass through chamber further forms a second environment of high cleanliness around the substrate. A substrate transfer chamber receives the substrate from the substrate pass through chamber, and isolates the substrate from the high cleanliness of the second environment of the substrate pass through chamber. The substrate transfer chamber maintains a third environment of high cleanliness around the substrate, and transfers the substrate into more than one substrate processing chambers, where the substrate is selectively transferred into and out of the more than one substrate processing chambers without leaving the high cleanliness of the third environment. The substrate transfer chamber also selectively passes the substrate to the substrate pass through chamber when the substrate pass through chamber has formed the high cleanliness of the second environment. The substrate pass through chamber also receives the substrate from the substrate transfer chamber, and selectively passes the substrate to the substrate load chamber when the substrate load chamber has formed the intermediate cleanliness of the first environment. The substrate load chamber receives the substrate from the substrate pass through chamber, and selectively passes the substrate out of the substrate load chamber and into the ambient contaminant laden environment when the substrate load chamber is not open to the substrate pass through chamber.

摘要： Techniques are provided for providing seamless wireless communication services to client devices associated with an roaming workgroup bridge device to enable wireless communications between the client devices and a network using a first radio transceiver unit in communication with a first root access point device that provides connectivity to the network. The workgroup bridge device scans a frequency band to detect a second wireless root access point device using a second radio transceiver unit. Signal strength values of signals received by the first radio transceiver unit are compared to a threshold signal strength value. When the signal strength of the received signals is below the threshold, communication services are provided to the client devices using the second radio transceiver unit in communication with the second root access point device. Communications between the client devices and the first root access point device are then terminated.

摘要： An apparatus and method are presented for electrically determining whether delamination has occurred at one or more interfaces within a semiconductor wafer. The semiconductor wafer includes a test structure formed within dielectric layers upon an upper surface of a semiconductor substrate. The test structure includes an electrically conductive structure, a pair of electrically conductive contact plugs, and a probe pad. The conductive structure is formed within an opening in a first dielectric layer, and is in electrical contact with the upper surface of the semiconductor substrate. The conductive structure is preferably made up of the same vertical stack of layers of selected electrically conductive materials used to form interconnects within the semiconductor wafer. A second dielectric layer if formed over the first dielectric layer and the conductive structure. The pair of electrically conductive contact plugs extend vertically through respective holes in the second dielectric layer. An electrically conductive probe pad is formed upon an upper surface of the second dielectric layer and extends between the pair of contact plugs. Each contact plug is in electrical contact with the probe pad and the electrically conductive structure. During testing, a probe of a measurement device is brought into contact with the probe pad. The measurement device measures the electrical resistance and/or reactance between the probe pad and the semiconductor substrate. The resulting resistance and/or reactance measurement may be compared to an expected resistance and/or reactance value to determine if delamination has occurred at one or more interfaces within the semiconductor wafer.
