摘要:
Semiconductor nano-sized particles possess unique optical properties, which make them ideal candidates for various applications in the UV photolithography. In this patent several such applications, including using semiconductor nano-sized particles or semiconductor nano-sized particle containing materials as highly refractive medium in immersion lithography, as anti-reflection coating in optics, as pellicle in lithography and as sensitizer in UV photoresists are described.

摘要:
A compression rate is selected for a data file representing an image wherein an image source and an image characterization is identified. Selection of a compression rate can be based upon the image source and the image characterization. The image source can be medical imaging device such as x-ray, CT scan, MRI, mammogram, sonogram, or other types of images. The image characterization can be an anatomical content of the image, a purpose of study of the image, or a diagnostic value of the source of the image.

Documents to be accessed over a computer network are stored in network data storage such that each document is associated with a document archive and a task is associated with each stored document. An escalation list is created for each task and is associated with the document archive so as to specify an ordered list of escalation items to be satisfied until fulfillment of the task. When a parameter associated with each escalation list item has been satisfied, process operations associated with the next escalation list item are performed. Fulfillment of the task results in appending a verification of task fulfillment to the document archive.
摘要:
Advanced techniques for programmable photolithography provide enhanced resolution and other aspects of a photolithography system. A combination of multiple exposures and movement of a substrate relative to a programmable mask in a photolithographic system accomplishes single shutter exposure overlaps to create features smaller than the single shutter intensity profile, i.e., sub-pixel resolution. Advanced timing adjustment capabilities are used to modulate the light so that no unwanted features are created. Additionally, a library of shapes may be used, one shape on each pixel, with the small features of the shapes created by phase shifting. Patterns are built up by multiple exposures with relative movement of the mask and resist so as to place each shape from the library where it is needed on the resist. Electro-Optic phase shifting material may be applied to the shutter so as to adjust the single shutter intensity profile, or to adjust the interaction of adjacent shutters. An apodizing mask may be used to engineer the wavefronts of the light striking the resist in such a manner to achieve better resolution.
摘要:
Compressing a data file representing an image wherein one or more regions within the image are identified. At least one of the regions is selected and the data corresponding to the selected region is compressed at a different rate that the data corresponding to non-selected regions of the image. The different compression rates are selected to maintain a desired fidelity in an image reconstructed from the compressed data file. The different compression rates can be predetermined, selected by a user, or automatically selected. Compression rates can be based upon the type of image to be compressed such as x-ray, CT scan or MRI images, the structure that is being analyzed, parameters regarding the use of the image, system parameters such as storage capacity available, or bandwidth of a communication channel used to transmit the compressed file.

The present invention relates to methods and apparatuses for providing data storage which can be completely erased to prevent access to previously stored data.
摘要:
A method for operating a rotary machine is provided. The rotary machine includes a stationary member and a rotatable member wherein the rotatable member is configured to rotate at least partially within the stationary member. The method includes determining an off-normal operating condition of the rotary machine facilitating undesirable contact between the rotatable member and the stationary member, monitoring a parameter associated with the off-normal operating condition, and preventing operation of the rotary machine while the monitored parameter is within a predetermined range.
