Abstract: The present invention is to a self-propelled boat launch and methods of operating components of the boat launch a launch vehicle. The launch vehicle includes a partially submersible generally frame. The frame comprises a front frame unit and a modular carriage frame section, comprising at least one modular carnage frame. The boat launch is self-propelled with track assemblies driven by a hydraulic system powered by an engine assembly. The engine assembly is preferably mounted on top of the front frame unit. At least two track assemblies are in removable communication with a modular carriage frame. A track tensioner is provided for increased tension on a continuous track of the track assembly. A track cleaner is described for removal of foreign objects from at least one track assembly. Further, a method of operating the track tensioner is described. A method of operating the track cleaner is described.

Abstract: Methods of measuring gas flow rates in a gas supply system for supplying gas to a plasma processing chamber are provided. In a differential flow method, a flow controller is operated at different set flow rates, and upstream orifice pressures are measured for the set flow rates at ambient conditions. The measured orifice pressures are referenced to a secondary flow verification method that generates corresponding actual gas flow rates for the different set flow rates. The upstream orifice pressures can be used as a differential comparison for subsequent orifice pressure measurements taken at any temperature condition of the chamber. In an absolute flow method, some parameters of a selected gas and orifice are predetermined, and other parameters of the gas are measured while the gas is being flowed from a flow controller at a set flow rate through an orifice. In this method, any flow controller set point can be flowed at any time and at any chamber condition, such as during plasma processing operations.

Abstract: A method for etching a layer over a substrate is provided. A gas-modulated cyclic process is performed for more than three cycles. Each cycle comprises performing a protective layer forming phase using first gas chemistry with a deposition gas chemistry, which is performed in about 0.0055 to 7 seconds for each cycle and performing an etching phase for the feature through the etch mask using a second gas chemistry using a reactive etching gas chemistry, which is performed in about 0.005 to 14 seconds for each cycle. The protective layer forming phase comprises providing the deposition gas and forming a plasma from the deposition gas. Each etching phase comprises providing a reactive etching gas and forming a plasma from the reactive etching gas.
