Abstract: A pillow comprising a first component having a head-supporting material with an upper surface, a lower surface, and a raised wall formed between the upper and lower surfaces, wherein the wall includes a truncated first wall portion with a beveled upper edge and a beveled lower edge; a second wall portion adjacent to the first wall portion; a truncated third wall portion adjacent to the second wall portion and opposite the first wall portion with a beveled upper edge and a beveled lower edge; a fourth wall portion adjacent to the third wall portion and opposite the second wall portion having a cutout region configured to receive the shoulder of a user; and a removable second component having the shape of the first pillow component and being configured to enclose the first component, wherein the second component includes a tether configured to secure a length of tubing.

Abstract: Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) compositions and single CMP platen process for the removal of copper and barrier layer material from a microelectronic device substrate having same thereon. The process includes the in situ transformation of a copper removal CMP composition, which is used to selectively remove and planarize copper, into a barrier removal CMP composition, which is used to selectively remove barrier layer material, on a single CMP platen pad.

Abstract: Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) compositions and single CMP platen process for the removal of copper and barrier layer material from a microelectronic device substrate having same thereon. The process includes the in situ transformation of a Step I slurry formulation, which is used to selectively remove and planarize copper, into a Step II slurry formulation, which is used to selectively remove barrier layer material, on a single CMP platen pad.

Abstract: This invention relates to a high efficiency chromatographic system. More specifically, the present invention relates to a chromatographic system for determining the physicochemical properties of one or more compounds using at least two chromatographic units in eluent flow communication with one eluent analyzer via an intermediate eluent switch. The present chromatographic system allows determination of physicochemical properties through the use of multiple chromatographic units in communication with one eluent analyzer via an eluent switch.
