  • Patent number: 11315771
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for processing a substrate are provided herein. A method, for example, includes igniting a plasma at a first pressure within a processing volume of a process chamber; depositing sputter material from a target disposed within the processing volume while decreasing the first pressure to a second pressure within a first time frame while maintaining the plasma; continuing to deposit sputter material from the target while decreasing the second pressure to a third pressure within a second time frame less than the first time frame while maintaining the plasma; and continuing to deposit sputter material from the target while maintaining the third pressure for a third time frame that is greater than or equal to the second time frame while maintaining the plasma.

  • Patent number: 11306096
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compounds and methods for the manufacture of inhibitors of deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs) and/or desumoylating enzymes. In particular, the invention relates to the inhibition of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase 7 or ubiquitin specific peptidase 7 (USP7). The invention further relates to the use of DUB or desumoylating inhibitors in the treatment of cancer. Described herein are compounds of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R1a, R1b, R1c and R1d each independently represent hydrogen, optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl or R1a and R1b together form an optionally substituted C3-C6 cycloalkyl ring, or R1c and R1d together form an optionally substituted C3-C6 cycloalkyl ring; A is a 5 membered nitrogen-containing aromatic ring and is substituted with at least one optionally substituted 5 to 10 membered monocyclic or bicyclic heteroaryl or aryl ring attached through an optional linker.

  • Patent number: 11309169
    Abstract: A collimator that is biasable is provided. The ability to bias the collimator allows control of the electric field through which the sputter species pass. In some implementations of the present disclosure, a collimator that has a high effective aspect ratio while maintaining a low aspect ratio along the periphery of the collimator of the hexagonal array of the collimator is provided. In some implementations, a collimator with a steep entry edge in the hexagonal array is provided. It has been found that use of a steep entry edge in the collimator reduces deposition overhang and clogging of the cells of the hexagonal array. These various features lead to improve film uniformity and extend the life of the collimator and process kit.
