  • Publication number: 20180174870
    Abstract: A substrate processing system for selectively etching a substrate includes a first chamber and a second chamber. A first gas delivery system supplies an inert gas species to the first chamber. A plasma generating system generates plasma including ions and metastable species in the first chamber. A gas distribution device removes the ions from the plasma, blocks ultraviolet (UV) light generated by the plasma and delivers the metastable species to the second chamber. A substrate support is arranged below the gas distribution device to support the substrate. A second gas delivery system delivers a reactive gas species to one of the gas distribution device or a volume located below the gas distribution device. The metastable species transfer energy to the reactive gas species to selectively etch one exposed material of the substrate more than at least one other exposed material of the substrate.

  • Patent number: 9966831
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a controller and a controlling method of a switching power supply. The controller of the switching power supply is used for turning on and off a power transistor so that inductor current flows through an inductor which is connected in series with the power transistor. The controller includes a frequency-jittering signal generating circuit, a superimpose circuit and a first comparator. The frequency-jittering signal generating circuit generates a frequency-jittering signal variable over time. The superimpose circuit superimposes the frequency-jittering signal on a sampling signal of the inductor current to generate a superimposed signal. The first comparator compares the superimposed signal with a control voltage to generate an OFF signal for turning off the power transistor. The controller of the switching power supply reduces conducted electromagnetic interference by a frequency-jittering control on the sampling signal of the inductor current.

  • Patent number: 9538538
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a non-geosynchronous orbit (NGSO) satellite to comply with equivalent power flux density (EPFD) limits are disclosed. The example implementations may allow a constellation of NGSO satellites to comply with EPFD limits without disabling beams transmitted from the NGSO satellites. The power level of one or more beams to be transmitted from the NGSO satellites may be dynamically adjusted according to a beam power back-off schedule. In some aspects, the beam power back-off schedule may specify beam power back-off values as a function of latitude on Earth, and may allow for maximum allowable power levels for beams transmitted from the NGSO satellites without violating any of the EPFD percentile limits.
