Abstract: The exemplary embodiments provide real-time data capture and processing which improves data processing performance and speed and facilitate passing of the processed data to various analytical sources, while maintaining superior data quality checks, particularly with respect to data elements associated with multiple data types. The proposed system and process can be used to continuously consume and listen to multiple events while mapping the events to appropriate schemas provided in a separate schema stream. The schema stream is provided once and cached to minimize bandwidth consumed by the transaction stream. The schema information is then further enriched with information from a metadata registry. The event data may then be compressed and aligned in memory tables based on the enriched schema. Once events are decoded and sorted into memory tables in accordance to the identified schema, each memory table can be processed in parallel.

Abstract: An application for dynamic, granular access permissions can include a database interface, a user interface, a login process, an administrator, an event handler, and an authorization process. The database interface can be an interface to an access control permissions database that stores roles, actions, or policies for users of the application. The login process can authenticate a user and determine a default set of access control permissions for that user when they are using the user interface. The administrator can provide access control permissions for a user by using the database interface. The event handler can dynamically modify access to functionality in the user interface based on an event. The authorization process can determine whether a request from the user interface is authorized before process the request. The authorization process can use access control permissions from the administrator and either a scope limited or a temporally limited access permission.

Abstract: Provided herein are approaches for securing electrostatic elements within a lens component. In one approach, a connector includes a flexible coupling secured at a first end to an electrostatic element of a plurality of electrostatic elements, the plurality of electrostatic elements extending between a set of sidewalls of the lens component. The connector further includes a stub protruding from a feedthrough component provided through the set of sidewalls, the stub secured to the flexible coupling at a second end of the flexible coupling.

Abstract: A media carrier, adapted to hold a plurality of pieces of magnetic media, is disclosed. This media carrier can be placed on the workpiece support, or platen, allowing the magnetic media to be processed. In some embodiments, the media carrier is designed such that only one side of the magnetic media is exposed, requiring a robot or other equipment to invert each piece of media in the carrier to process the second side. In other embodiments, the media carrier is designed such that both sides of the magnetic media are exposed. In this scenario, the media carrier is inverted on the platen to allow processing of the second side.

Abstract: Techniques for improving extracted ion beam quality using high-transparency electrodes are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the techniques may be realized as an apparatus for ion implantation. The apparatus may comprise an ion source for generating an ion beam, wherein the ion source comprises a faceplate with an aperture for the ion beam to travel therethrough. The apparatus may also comprise a set of extraction electrodes comprising at least a suppression electrode and a high-transparency ground electrode, wherein the set of extraction electrodes may extract the ion beam from the ion source via the faceplate, and wherein the high-transparency ground electrode may be configured to optimize gas conductance between the suppression electrode and the high-transparency ground electrode for improved extracted ion beam quality.

Abstract: A plasma processing tool comprises a plasma chamber configured to generate a plasma from a gas introduced into the chamber where the generated plasma has an electron plasma frequency. A plurality of electrodes disposed within the chamber. Each of the electrodes configured to create a rapidly-rising-electric-field pulse in a portion of the plasma contained in the chamber. Each of said rapidly-rising-electric-field pulses having a rise time substantially equal to or less than the inverse of the electron plasma frequency and a duration of less than the inverse of the ion plasma frequency. In this manner, the electron energy distribution in the generated plasma may be spatially and locally modified thereby affecting the density, composition and temperature of the species in the plasma and consequently the uniformity of the density and composition of ions and neutrals directed at a target substrate.
