  • Publication number: 20210380255
    Abstract: An economy class (Y class) private suite includes a continuous seatback and a stowable aisle-side panel. The continuous seatback covers the gaps between seats of a 3-seat or 4-seat PAX and the stowable aisle-side panel slides to close off the PAX from the aisle when desirable. Each seat in the PAX includes an extension element to extend from the anterior surface of the seat cushion and establish a substantially flat surface including the seat cushions and extension elements. A separate padded element may be placed over the substantially flat surface. Each seatback cushion in the PAX is removable and reconfigurable as a reclining support or expanded armrest.

  • Publication number: 20210118688
    Abstract: A method for reducing wiggling in a line includes forming a silicon patterning layer over a substrate and depositing a mask layer over the silicon patterning layer. The mask layer is patterned to form one or more openings therein. The mask layer is thinned and the one or more openings are widened, to provide a smaller height-to-width ratio. The pattern of the mask layer is then used to pattern the silicon patterning layer. The silicon patterning layer is used, in turn, to pattern a target layer where a metal line will be formed.

  • Publication number: 20210005467
    Abstract: A system includes a chamber, an inlet valve, a control device, and a recycle pipe. The chamber is configured to perform a semiconductor process and including an output port. The inlet valve is coupled to the chamber and a supply pipe. The controller is coupled to the inlet valve and the chamber. The recycle pipe arranged outside the chamber and coupled to the chamber. The recycle pipe is independent from the supply pipe. The controller is configured to determine whether the chamber is idle, and is configured to control the inlet valve based on the determination of whether the chamber is idle. When the controller closes the output port of the chamber and opens the inlet valve, water from the supply pipe flows into a wall of the chamber through the inlet vale first and then flows into the recycle pipe.
