  • Patent number: 11455452
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for adjusting implant parameter conditions in semiconductor processing by wafer and by wafer zone using in-line measurements from previous operations and a feed-forward computer model. The feed-forward model is based on a sensitivity map of in-line measured data and its effect of electrical performance. Feed-forward computer models that adjust implant parameters by wafer and by zone improve both wafer-to-wafer and within wafer electrical uniformity in semiconductor devices.

  • Publication number: 20060273118
    Abstract: A paint container comprises an enclosed body and a handle. The body is substantially D-shaped and comprises a bottom, a top, a substantially flat first side, and a curved second side. The top includes an opening for dispensing the contents of the container. The substantially flat first side extends between the top and the bottom. The curved second side is located opposite the first side and extends between the top and the bottom. The handle is pivotally coupled to the body and moveable between a rest position and a use position. The handle is pivotable about an axis that is parallel to the first side and located between the first side and the second side. The handle is configured so that the handle moves from proximate the first side of the body toward the second side of the body when the handle is moved from the rest position to the use position.

  • Patent number: 4409893
    Abstract: Pressure-sensitive master sheets are produced by printing ink-releasing images onto a master sheet by silk screen techniques using a semi-solid printable ink composition comprising a wax and/or resin binder material, an incompatible oleaginous material, colorant and a volatile vehicle. The solidified printed images comprise a porous, spongy network of the binder material containing within the pores thereof the oleaginous material and colorant as a pressure-exudable ink. The printed master is suitable for the production of several copies in a dry pressure-copying process.

  • Patent number: 4121522
    Abstract: A dry duplicating method comprising the steps of pressure-imaging a continuous master web with images capable of exuding liquid ink under the effects of contact pressure such as roller pressure and collecting the imaged master web on a roll for duplicating use. The master web is such that at least one surface is receptive to the pressure-applied images but neither surface is capable of absorbing the liquid ink to any substantial degree. The imaged web is duplicated by continuously bringing it into surface contact with an ink-absorbent copy web while pressure is applied to exude the liquid ink from the master images onto the copy web to form a duplicate copy, after which the web is continuously rolled up on another roller for reuse.
