Publication number: 20220351980Abstract: Methods and apparatus for etching a high aspect ratio feature in a stack on a substrate are provided. The feature may be formed in the process of forming a 3D NAND device. Typically, the stack includes alternating layers of material such as silicon oxide and silicon nitride or silicon oxide and polysilicon. WF6 is provided in the etch chemistry, which substantially reduces or eliminates problematic sidewall notching. Advantageously, this improvement in sidewall notching does not introduce other tradeoffs such as increased bowing, decreased selectivity, increased capping, or decreased etch rate.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2020Publication date: November 3, 2022Inventors: Douglas Hasso, Yinzhong Guo, James M. Lipovsky, Ludwik S. Cygan, Carlos A. Escobar Marin, Joseph Jacobs

Publication number: 20190023798Abstract: Methods for treating medical conditions induced by interleukin-4 involve administering an IL-4 antagonist to a patient afflicted with such a condition. Suitable IL-4 antagonists include, but are not limited to, IL-4 receptors (such as a soluble human IL-4 receptor), antibodies that bind IL-4, antibodies that bind IL-4R, IL-4 muteins that bind to IL-4R but do not induce a biological response, molecules that inhibit IL-4-induced signal transduction, and other compounds that inhibit a biological effect that results from the binding of IL-4 to a cell surface IL-4R. Particular antibodies provided herein include human monoclonal antibodies generated by procedures involving immunization of transgenic mice. Such human antibodies may be raised against human IL-4 receptor. Certain of the antibodies inhibit both IL-4-induced and IL-13-induced biological activities.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2018Publication date: January 24, 2019Applicant: IMMUNEX CORPORATIONInventors: Richard J.

Patent number: 10004372Abstract: A mop includes a mop head, a secondary cleaning head and a handle. The mop head includes a secondary cleaning head chamber and a first attachment element. The secondary cleaning head is selectively receivable in the secondary cleaning head chamber and includes a second attachment element that cooperates with the first attachment element to selectively connect the secondary cleaning head with the mop head. The handle connects with the secondary cleaning head and is operatively connectable to the mop head. The handle is connected with the mop head when the secondary cleaning head is received in the secondary cleaning head chamber and the second attachment element is engaged with the first attachment element, and the handle is disconnected with the mop head when the secondary cleaning head is not received in the secondary cleaning head chamber.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2015Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: Helen of Troy LimitedInventors: Juan Carlos Escobar, David Colie Wight, Claire Afton Dunnington, Vicente Jorge Valderrama, Heidi Serene Farrell, Reid Schlegel, Anthony Bevin Mallier
