Abstract: A helmet includes an outer shell and an impact absorbing layer adjacent to the outer shell. The helmet also includes a fit system mounted to the impact absorbing layer. The fit system includes a rear portion that includes a rotational mount having a ball and an extension mounted to the ball. The fit system also includes a rear mount that includes a plurality of grooves. Each groove in the plurality of grooves is configured to receive the rotational mount of the rear portion of the fit system.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for etchback profile control. The method includes performing a first etch through a first dielectric layer to form a first via and a second dielectric layer, filling the first via with a BARC material to form a first BARC layer, and performing a second etch on the first BARC layer to form a second BARC layer. The second etch has a first etch rate in a first peripheral region of the second BARC layer and a second etch rate in a first central region of the second BARC layer. The first peripheral region is located around a sidewall of the first via, and the first central region is located around a center of the first via. The first etch rate is larger than the second etch rate, and the first peripheral region is located higher than the first central region. A first top surface of the second BARC layer has substantially a first convex shape. Additionally, the method includes performing a third etch through a second dielectric layer to form a trench and a third BARC layer.
