Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide processes to selectively form a cobalt layer on a copper surface over exposed dielectric surfaces. In one embodiment, a method for capping a copper surface on a substrate is provided which includes positioning a substrate within a processing chamber, wherein the substrate contains a contaminated copper surface and a dielectric surface, exposing the contaminated copper surface to a reducing agent while forming a copper surface during a pre-treatment process, exposing the substrate to a cobalt precursor gas to selectively form a cobalt capping layer over the copper surface while leaving exposed the dielectric surface during a vapor deposition process, and depositing a dielectric barrier layer over the cobalt capping layer and the dielectric surface.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided and include a computer terminal located at a flooring store that receives a measured color of a flooring product. A server receives paint product catalog information from a computer system located at a coating manufacturer facility, determines paint colors that coordinate with the flooring product based on the paint product catalog information, and runs a paint product ordering application that interacts with a web browser of the computer terminal. The computer terminal receives a paint product ordering web page from the server that enables a user to create an order for a paint product based on a selected paint color and transmits the order to the server. The server receives the order and communicates the order to the computer system at the coating manufacturer facility. The computer system receives the order for order fulfillment, including creating, packing, and shipping the paint product to the user.

Abstract: A tissue box comprising front and rear surfaces including horizontal fold lines; a left end surface including a horizontal fold line and a vertical perforation line; a right end surface including a horizontal fold line and a vertical perforation line; a top surface including a tissue pull-out-port; a bottom surface including a horizontal perforation line at the center of said bottom surface and vertical perforation lines at either end; lock keys form in said bottom surface so that said left end surface and right end surface can tuck in said lock keys; and said front surface, rear surface, left end surface, right end surface, top surface, and bottom surface all foldably connect to form a rectangular box. By its construction, said tissue box height can be reduced to prevent the termination of the cascade pulling mechanism when the remaining number of tissues in the box becomes half or less.

Abstract: A multi optical-route Head Up Display (HUD), comprising: at least an image display unit, to generate at least two input images, and project them respectively to a plurality of relay lenses, which adjusts reflection angle of said input signals and then transmits them to a virtual image generation unit, said virtual image generation unit produces a plurality of virtual images, and transmits them to a plurality of transmission mirrors, which reflects said virtual images to form a large area virtual image. Based on technical contents mentioned above, size of optical elements of lens and mirrors can be reduced drastically, so that said multi optical-route HUD can be miniaturized, to achieve image display range of large area, thus the moving vehicle information frame required completely overlaps outside view, as such effectively solving defects of a conventional single optical-route image display device capable of only providing small area image display.
