Abstract: A process is provided for depositing an undoped silicon oxide film on a substrate disposed in a process chamber. A process gas that includes SiF4, H2, a silicon source, and an oxidizing gas reactant is flowed into the process chamber. A plasma having an ion density of at least 1011 ions/cm3 is formed from the process gas. The undoped silicon oxide film is deposited over the substrate with the plasma using a process that has simultaneous deposition and sputtering components. A temperature of the substrate during such depositing is greater than 450° C.

Abstract: A method of depositing a silica glass insulating film over a substrate. In one embodiment the method comprises exposing the substrate to a silicon-containing reactant introduced into a chamber in which the substrate is disposed such that one or more layers of the silicon-containing reactant are adsorbed onto the substrate; purging or evacuating the chamber of the silicon-containing reactant; converting the silicon-containing reactant into a silica glass insulating compound by exposing the substrate to oxygen radicals formed from a second reactant while biasing the substrate to promote a sputtering effect, wherein an average atomic mass of all atomic constituents in the second reactant is less than or equal to an average atomic mass of oxygen; and repeating the exposing, purging/evacuating and exposing sequence a plurality of times until a desired film thickness is reached.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved HFC manufacturing processes of the type which produces an intermediate product stream that includes a mixture of HF and at least one compound, usually an HCFC, which is relatively resistant to further fluorination. The improvement involves separating the unreactive compound(s) from the product stream, preferably using liquid:liquid phase separation, and substantially avoiding recycle of the unreactive compound to the fluorination reaction. The separated unreactive compound(s) are substantially free of HF.

Abstract: A computer for a server or work station which has two air cooling streams one stream leads from outside the chassis across the motherboard and through a vented power supply then directly into the environment and is driven by a fan inside the power supply. This air stream independently and directly removes the major source of heat which is the power supply. The second air stream circulates from outside the chassis through the hard drives and out of openings adjacent the hard drives and is driven by fans positioned between the hard drives and vented openings in the chassis. The efficient heat removal is compatible with an arrangement of components in the chassis such that the overall height is less than 3½. The reduced height and efficient heat removal make the computer ideally suited for mounting in a server chassis with other servers where close spacing is desired.

Abstract: In a telecommunications system, a subscriber station invokes a sponsored-call application service program when the subscriber station originates a call. Based upon certain criteria, service logic determines whether the call is sponsored or not. If sponsored, additional service logic utilizes the location of the call origination (i.e., location of the subscriber station) and/or other attributes of the subscriber station to select an announcement from a plurality of announcements for transmission to the subscriber station. After the announcement is transmitted (i.e., played), the subscriber station is connected to the call's desired destination. If not sponsored, the call is handled as a normal call.
