  • Patent number: 7357288
    Abstract: When a component, that has a connection portion to be connected to an electrode of a board and a weak heat-resistant portion of a lower heat-resisting property than a fusing point of a connection material for connecting the electrode of the board with the connection portion, is connected to the board with interposition of connection material between the electrode of the board and the connection portion, a cooling member is brought into contact with the weak heat-resistant portion or its neighborhood while heating the connection material by heating the board brought in contact with a placement member, and a quantity of heat conducted to the weak heat-resistant portion via the board is reduced by being conducted to the cooling member, thereby performing fusing of the connection material while preventing occurrence of thermal damage to the weak heat-resistant portion.

  • Publication number: 20040085906
    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is supplying a packet tracing system which can trace a route of a packet using existing network components. Packet printing devices 1a, 1b, and 1c generate packet identifying information for each packet which transmits through the communication line and write the packet identifying information to a storage part. An IDS 3 detects suspicious packets in a network under surveillance. A management system which receives a suspicious packet in a network generates a hash value for the suspicious packet and sends a request for examination which contains the hash value to the packet printing devices 1a, 1b and 1c. The packet printing devices 1a, 1b and 1c examine an internal storage part and send a result of examination to the management system 2. The management system 2 obtains a transmission route of the suspicious packet to be traced and by the result of examination and information of network construction.

  • Patent number: 6602654
    Abstract: Developing solution for a photoresist comprising an alicyclic amine compound and a non-metallic alkali compound is described. The developing solution exhibits excellent wettability and dissolution selectivity to alicyclic compound-based resists. Also, the developing solution does not produce dissolution residues, and it makes it possible to reliably form ultra fine patterns.

  • Patent number: 5846695
    Abstract: A removing agent composition for a photoresist comprising 0.01 to 20% by weight of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide, 1 to 80% by weight of a nucleophilic amine having an oxidation-reduction potential, 0.5 to 20% by weight of a sugar and/or a sugar alcohol, and water in the remaining amount; and a process for producing a semiconductor integrated circuit comprising removing a photoresist applied onto an inorganic substrate by using the above removing agent composition.A layer of a photoresist applied onto an inorganic substrate, a layer of a photoresist remaining after dry etching of an inorganic substrate which is masked by the layer, or residues of a layer of a photoresist remaining after dry etching of an inorganic substrate which is masked by the layer and subsequent ashing of the layer can easily be removed at a low temperature in a short time. The wiring material of the circuit is not corroded at all, and ultra-fine working can be performed.

  • Patent number: 5470555
    Abstract: There is disclosed a process for purification a gaseous organometallic compound containing impurities by bringing the compound into contact with a catalyst comprising a copper or nickel component as the essential ingredient to remove oxygen contained in the compound. The above-mentioned process is capable removal of oxygen in an organometallic compound as low as 0.1 ppm and further to a ultralow concentration of 0.01 ppm, which removal has heretofore been impossible, and thereby the production of a ultrapure organometallic compound has been made possible.
