Publication number: 20240145220Abstract: Examples of a substrate support assembly are provided herein. In some examples, the substrate support assembly has a ceramic electrostatic chuck having a first side configured to support a substrate and a second side opposite the first side, wherein the ceramic electrostatic chuck includes an electrode embedded in the ceramic electrostatic chuck. The substrate support assembly has a cooling plate disposed under the second side of the ceramic electrostatic chuck, wherein the cooling plate includes an inner portion separated from an outer portion. The substrate support assembly has a bond layer coupling the ceramic electrostatic chuck to the cooling plate, wherein the bond layer is of a first material in the outer portion of the cooling plate and of a second material in the inner portion of the cooling plate, and wherein the first material has a greater thermal conductivity than that of the second material.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Jaeyong CHO, Rajinder DHINDSA, Daniel Sang BYUN, Vladimir KNYAZIK

Patent number: 11922195Abstract: Some embodiments support embedding of a notebooks software component in a surrounding host application, thereby promoting consistency of notebook user interfaces and user experiences between different kinds of applications. For instance, the notebook access added to an integrated development environment (IDE) may be aesthetically consistent with the notebook access added to a business analytics tool from the same vendor as the IDE. Departures from the aesthetic are still supported, e.g., a notebook access provided in a video gaming environment to teach gamers programming skills may have the same aesthetic as the simulated world of the video game, rather than an IDE aesthetic or an enterprise software aesthetic. Direct integration or proxied integration architectures may be used. Efficiencies may be gained by distinguishing between notebook viewing, editing, and executing operations, and providing more computationally expensive resources only as needed for the notebook access being performed.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: John Francis Lam, Safia Abdalla, Shibani Raj Basava, Dinesh Chandnani, Zhu Chen, Kwangje Cho, Ram Kumar Donthula, Katherine Kampf, Daniel Moth, Andrew Christopher Neil, Vaishnavi Sannidhanam, Barry Manh Tu, Vijaya Krishna Upadya, Dileep Yavanmandha

Patent number: 5951291Abstract: A cosmetic accessory device for teeth that simulates the appearance of an assemblage of teeth and gum. The device includes a gum portion and a tooth portion shaped and dimensioned to cover the user's upper or lower front teeth. The device is made of a nontoxic, nonirritating, tasteless, odorless, resilient, easily cleaned and chemically stable material that does not stick to natural teeth, gums, or most dental work. In use, the device is held in place by custom-fitted inner projections that match the spaces between the user's own front teeth and (optionally) a shelf extending just across the front teeth. Unlike typical conventional novelty dental devices, the natural teeth and gums are not completely covered, so the device is comfortable to wear and does not interfere with natural speech or bite closure.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 1997Date of Patent: September 14, 1999Assignee: Bukk, Inc.Inventors: Nancy M.
