  • Publication number: 20050138062
    Abstract: Method for selectively communicating data sets. The method includes the steps of detecting at least one data set of a first user, the data set being communicated via an at least unidirectional connection, detecting at least one data set of at least one second user, comparing at least one part of the detected data sets, and if a matching result is been determined, communicating at least one part of the data set of the first user to the second user, and/or communicating at least one part of the data set of the second user to the first user. Also, a computer program, an apparatus, and a system for selectively communicating data sets.

  • Patent number: 6809800
    Abstract: An apparatus (100) for patterning the surface of a semiconductor wafer (130). A stage (148) is coupled to a motor (150) that is adapted to move the stage (148) and a semiconductor wafer (130) in a horizontal direction at a first speed A. A mask (140) is disposed above the semiconductor wafer (130), the mask (140) being coupled to a motor (142) that is adapted to move the mask (140) in a horizontal direction at a second speed B. The ratio of the first and second speeds is different than the magnification factor, which may be other than 1:1 if a lens (120) is used. The mask (140) and the wafer (130) may be moved in the same horizontal direction simultaneously during the exposure process at different speeds B and A, respectively, to provide a magnification or demagnification of the mask (140) pattern onto the wafer (130) surface.
