Abstract: Methods for processing a substrate are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method of processing a substrate includes: heating a substrate disposed within a processing volume of a substrate processing chamber to a temperature of up to about 400 degrees Celsius, wherein the substrate comprises a first surface, an opposing second surface, and an opening formed in the first surface and extending towards the opposing second surface, and wherein the second surface comprises a conductive material disposed in the second surface and aligned with the opening; and exposing the substrate to a process gas comprising about 80 to about 100 wt. % of an alcohol to reduce a contaminated surface of the conductive material.

Abstract: A method for adapting a monitoring device of a control unit for a restraint system of a motor vehicle, having a redundant detection device and a triggering unit, having the method steps of: providing a first definable threshold value as a timing pattern for the monitoring device in a first operating range of the motor vehicle; detecting at least a second operating range of the motor vehicle by way of the redundant detection device at a first point in time; and transferring data from the redundant detection device to the monitoring device in order to adapt the monitoring device by utilizing at least one second definable threshold value in the second operating range of the motor vehicle, and an apparatus therefor.

Abstract: The present invention enables the measurement and determination of a quantity over a selected spatial region by providing a device that incorporates a sensor for the measurement of the quantity and a spatial subsystem for determining the spatial information comprising a spatial position and/or orientation of the device when the measurement is made. A processing module integrated with the device operates on a dataset of multiple measurements correlated with spatial information and provides a determination of the quantity over the selected spatial range, either directly based on the measured data point and the spatial information or via a sensor fusion algorithm such as an interpolation algorithm. The results may be displayed on the device, for example, on a graphical display, or may be transmitted to a remote processor for subsequent processing and/or display.

Abstract: A method for monitoring a process execution of a plurality of sequentially executed processes starts one of a plurality of timers in cyclic permutation when one of the processes is started, and outputs a first error signal when a period of time recorded by one of the timers exceeds a predefined maximum period of time.

Abstract: A curtain coating method comprising the steps of conveying a substrate (12) in a downstream direction (D) through an impingement zone (14), and impinging the substrate (12) with a free-falling curtain (16) in the impingement zone (14) at an acute angle (?). The force ratio (Re) of the curtain (16) at the impingement zone (16) is greater than about 5.25 (e.g., greater than about 5.50, about 6.00, about 6.50, about 7.00, about 7.50, and/or about 8.00) whereby the method may be used with a curtain (14) having a high mass flow rate (Q*?) and/or a low viscosity (?).

Abstract: A method and a system as well as a data carrier for use in a system for authenticating a client who desires to obtain a service or product from a supplier, -wherein the client, via a first communication network, enters into a communication with the supplier and gives order information, -wherein the supplier, on the basis or this order information, composes supplier information and gives it to an authentication unit, -wherein the authentication unit, on the basis of the supplier information received, composes authentication information and sends it to the mobile communication network number of the client, -wherein the client, with his mobile communication device, composes reply information and sends it to the authentication unit to confirm the authentication information received, -wherein the authentication unit performs at least one checking step, -wherein, if the or each checking step is followed by a confirmative reply, the authentication unit sends a supply release, -wherein, in a first checking step, the
