Patent number: 9616661Abstract: An inkjet device for controlled positioning of a droplet of a substance onto a substrate includes a print head having a nozzle configured to eject the droplet. A camera is configured to detect and generate images of the droplet after ejection of the droplet from the nozzle.

If the droplet fails to eject, the computer is configured to stop the inkjet device and an operator can maintain the print head. The computer is configured to determine viscosity and surface tension of the droplet from characteristics of the droplet identified from the droplet images, and the computer is configured to control the positioning of the droplet onto the substrate during the printing process based on the determined viscosity and surface tension.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2006Date of Patent: April 11, 2017Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Anke Pierik, Antonius Johannes Jo Wismans, Willem-Jan A.

Patent number: 9462667Abstract: The present invention provides methods and apparatus for facilitating the start up of a fuel droplet stream generator. During a start-up phase the fuel droplet stream generator is positioned so that the fuel droplets re emitted downwardly whereby gravity assists in the establishment of the stream. The droplets are monitored using a visualization system and once the stream is determined to have the desired characteristics the stream generator is moved to a second position of steady state use in which the droplet stream is emitted in a horizontal direction.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2013Date of Patent: October 4, 2016Assignee: ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Johan Frederik Dijksman, Ronald Johannes Hultermans, Antonius Theodorus Wilhelmus Kempen, Ramin Badie

Patent number: 9442380Abstract: A radiation source (e.g., LPP—laser produced plasma source) for generation of extreme UV (EUV) radiation has at least two fuel particle streams having different trajectories. Each stream is directed to cross the path of an excitation (laser) beam focused at a plasma formation region, but the trajectories are spaced apart at the plasma formation region, and the streams phased, so that only one stream has a fuel particle in the plasma formation region at any time, and so that when a fuel particle from one stream is generating plasma and EUV radiation at the plasma generation region, other fuel particles are sufficiently spaced so as to be substantially unaffected by the plasma. The arrangement permits potential doubling of the radiation intensity achievable for a particular fuel particle size.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2013Date of Patent: September 13, 2016Assignee: ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Ramin Badie, Vadim Yevgenyevich Banine, Johan Frederik Dijksman, Antonius Theodorus Wilhelmus Kempen, Andrei Mikhailovich Yakunin, Hendrikus Robertus Marie Van Greevenbroek, Koen Gerhardus Winkels

Patent number: 9372399Abstract: An imprint lithography method is disclosed for reducing a difference between an intended topography and an actual topography arising from a part of a patterned layer of fixed imprintable medium. The method involves imprinting an imprint lithography template into a layer of flowable imprintable medium to form a patterned layer in the imprintable medium, and fixing the imprintable medium to form a patterned layer of fixed imprintable medium. Local excitation is applied to the part of the patterned layer to adjust a chemical reaction in the part of the patterned layer to reduce the difference between the intended topography and the actual topography arising from the part of the fixed patterned layer of imprintable medium when this is subsequently used as a resist for patterning the substrate. An imprint medium suitable for imprint lithography with the method is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2011Date of Patent: June 21, 2016Assignee: ASML NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Martinus Bernardus Van Der Mark, Vadim Yevgenyevich Banine, Andre Bernardus Jeunink, Johan Frederik Dijksman, Sander Frederik Wuister, Emiel Andreas Godefridus Peeters, Johan Hendrik Klootwijk, Roelof Koole, Christianus Martinus Van Heesch, Ruediger Guenter Mauczok, Jacobus Bernardus Giesbers
