Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for controlling lots' dispatch of tool groups, and all the lots can be transferred to correct places for further processing. The lots are transferred to the storage places of the tool when there is only a single tool for the next process. A decision step is performed for deciding whether the storage places of the next tool group and the next-next tool group overlap when the next process contains a tool group. If there are overlapped storage places, then the lots will be moved to the overlapped storage place having minimum loading. When there is no overlapped storage place, the lots will be dispatched to the storage place having minimum loading among the next tool group. All the lots can be processed with at minimum moving steps, and all the tools perform their processes under balance loading whenever the productions increase or decrease.

Abstract: A method of forming a DRAM cell with a trench capacitor over a semiconductor substrate comprises the following steps. First, an etching step is performed to form a trench structure in the substrate, wherein the trench structure has a bottom and sidewalls, and the sidewalls are adjacent to the bottom. Then, the trench structure is doped to form a doping region on the bottom and a portion of the sidewalls. A selective etching step is performed to remove a portion of the doping region, wherein a selectivity of the doping region is higher than that of undoped sidewalls. A dielectric layer is formed on a top surface of the trench structure. A conducting layer is then formed in the trench structure. Next, a gate structure is formed on the substrate. A doping step is used to form the drain/source structures adjacent to the gate. A strap region is formed to couple the conducting layer and the drain/source structures.

Abstract: Collisions between solitons in different frequency channels are one of the major sources of errors in transmission systems that utilize wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). Moreover, because standard transmission lines have lumped amplification, the four-wave mixing fields from soliton collisions grow uncontrollably, adding amplitude and timing jitter to the jitter due to ideal soliton collisions. These problems are addressed by using a specific dispersion map to implement dispersion management, by which it is possible to significantly reduce the collision-induced timing jitter and to improve system performance even in comparison with that provided by an ideal, exponentially decreasing dispersion fiber.

Lateral edges of the front and rear sheets are welded to one another with the bottom two portions of the welded edges sandwiching both lateral edges of the bottom folded sheet. To construct the container, a central portion of the bottom sheet is unfolded such that the unfolded portion has an essentially rectangular shape, thus forming said base, with central parts of the bottom edges of the bottom sheet forming the front and rear edges of the base and with peripheral portions of the bottom sheet forming two overlapping triangular portions with the bottom edges thereof defining the two side edges of the base.

The long motor has a rotor divided into sections with at least one low friction bearing arranged between the sections and in each end of the long motor. A stator is stacked continuously past internal bearings using thin sheets of metal discs between the bearings. Each disc in the bearing pedestal is significantly thicker than the common stator discs and is made of paramagnetic metal with good heat transfer properties. The inner diameter of each disc in the bearing pedestal is smaller than the inner diameter of the common stator discs so that a bearing inserted into the bearing pedestal is held by a tight fit. The inner diameter of the bearing fits tightly to the axis of the rotor and slots for the stator windings in all metal discs are radially open towards the rotor.
