Patent number: 12392427Abstract: A polishing assembly includes a chemical mechanical polishing system, a fluid source, and a fluid delivery conduit to carry a fluid from the fluid source into the chemical mechanical polishing system. The chemical mechanical polishing system including a platen to support a polishing pad, a carrier head to support a substrate and bring the substrate into contact with the polishing pad, and a motor to cause relative motion between platen and the carrier head. The fluid delivery conduit includes electrically insulative tubing, a conductive wrapper wrapped around an outer diameter of the tubing from a first end of the tubing to a second end of the tubing, and a conductive wire attached to the conductive wrapper first end. The conductive wrapper is configured to conduct an electrostatic discharge, and the conductive wire is configured to conduct the electrostatic discharge from the conductive wrapper to a grounding source.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2022Date of Patent: August 19, 2025Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Chad Pollard, Hari Soundararajan, Paul D. Butterfield, Shou-Sung Chang, Haosheng Wu, Calvin Lee, Balasubramaniam Coimbatore Jaganathan

Publication number: 20230415297Abstract: A chemical mechanical polishing system includes a steam generator with a heating element to apply heat to a vessel to generate steam, an opening to deliver steam onto a polishing pad, a first valve in a fluid line between the opening and the vessel, a sensor to monitor a steam parameter, and a control system. The control system causes the valve to open and close in accordance with a steam delivery schedule in a recipe, receive a measured value for the steam parameter from the sensor, receive a target value for the steam parameter, and perform a proportional integral derivative control algorithm with the target value and measured value as inputs so as to control the first valve and/or a second pressure release valve and/or the heating element such that the measured value reaches the target value substantially just before the valve is opened according to the steam delivery schedule.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Inventors: Hari Soundararajan, Shou-Sung Chang, Calvin Lee, Jonathan P. Domin, Shuchivrat Datar, Dmitry Sklyar, Paul D. Butterfield, Chad Pollard, Haosheng Wu

Patent number: 11157579Abstract: A delivery coordination system selects restaurant listings for presentation to a user by filtering out restaurants that are unlikely to be of interest to the user, while ensuring that restaurant listings are selected to encourage the success of all restaurants using the delivery coordination system. In response to receiving the listings request from a client device, the delivery coordination system selects a filtered set of restaurant listings from the plurality of restaurant listings stored by the delivery coordination system by applying filtering criteria to the plurality of stored restaurant listings. The delivery coordination system generates conversion scores for the restaurant in the filtered set of restaurant listings and selects restaurant listings to present to the user from the filtered set of restaurant listings based on selection factors, which can include the generated conversion scores. The delivery coordination system transmits the selected restaurant listings to the client device.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Xian Xing Zhang, Sidney Zhang, Yuyan Wang, Mihir Gogate, Yuanchi Ning, Chen Peng, Isaac Liu, Calvin Lee
