  • Publication number: 20220179328
    Abstract: In some general aspects, a surface of a structure within a chamber of an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light source is cleaned using a method. The method includes generating a plasma state of a material that is present at a location adjacent to a non-electrically conductive body that is within the chamber. The generation of the plasma state of the material includes electromagnetically inducing an electric current at the location adjacent the non-electrically conductive body to thereby transform the material that is adjacent the non-electrically conductive body from a first state into the plasma state. The plasma state of the material includes plasma particles, at least some of which are free radicals of the material. The method also includes enabling the plasma particles to pass over the structure surface to remove debris from the structure surface without removing the structure from the chamber of the EUV light source.

  • Publication number: 20220109651
    Abstract: System and methods are directed to displaying interactive content with static content in a user interface of an application. More specifically, it may be determined that an interactive component is to be rendered in a user interface of a first application, where the user interface includes static content. In response to determining that the interactive component is it be rendered, at least one linking parameter may be determined for linking the interactive component with interactive content stored in a shared storage. Based on the at least one linking parameter, the interactive component may be rendered in the user interface of the first application in-line with the static content of the user interface of the first application. Changes to the interactive content made by a second user of a second application may then be updated within the interactive component rendered in the user interface of the first application.

  • Publication number: 20220101504
    Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for accelerated image rendering with motion compensation. In one embodiment, a method comprises calculating motion between a preceding image frame and a target image frame to be rendered, rendering a small image with a size smaller than a target size of the target image frame based on the calculated motion, and generating the target image frame at the target size based on the small image, the calculated motion, and a reference image frame. In this way, high-quality image frames for a video stream may be generated with a reduced amount of rendering for each frame, thereby reducing the overall processing resources dedicated to rendering as well as the power consumption for image rendering.
