Publication number: 20210018852Abstract: A method of determining an optimal operational parameter setting of a metrology system is described. Free-form substrate shape measurements are performed. A model is applied, transforming the measured warp to modeled warp scaling values. Substrates are clamped to a chuck, causing substrate deformation. Alignment marks of the substrates are measured using an alignment system with four alignment measurement colors. Scaling values thus obtained are corrected with the modeled warp scaling values to determine corrected scaling values. An optimal alignment measurement color is determined, based on the corrected scaling values. Optionally, scaling values are selected that were measured using the optimal alignment measurement color and a substrate grid is determined using the selected scaling values. A substrate may be exposed using the determined substrate grid to correct exposure of the substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2020Publication date: January 21, 2021Applicant: ASML NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Leon Paul VAN DIJK, Victor Emanuel CALADO, Xing Lan LIU, Richard Johannes Franciscus VAN HAREN

Patent number: 10805897Abstract: A method of bearer deletion is provided to improve the universality of the bearer deletion process. The method includes: receiving, by the original intermediate NE, the cancellation type indication parameter sent by the HSS, and deleting the bearer between the serving gateway (S-GW) and a packet data network gateway (P-GW), if the original intermediate network element obtains an attach type according to the cancellation type indication parameter indicating an attach type and a corresponding bearer exists on the original intermediate NE. This method helps efficiently improve the universality of the bearer deletion flow.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2019Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.Inventors: Xiaolong Guo, Lan Liu, Ming Li, Wanqiang Zhang

Patent number: 10652937Abstract: A data communication method, a communication system, and related devices are configured to establish a transaction identifier (TI) in a user equipment (UE). The data communication method includes the following steps. A mobility management entity (MME) receives a request message and obtains ability information of the UE. If the UE has an ability to access a Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network/GSM/EDGE Radio Access Network (UTRAN/GERAN), the MME generates the TI. A communication system and related devices are also provided. Thus, the TI is effectively established in the UE, so as to ensure normal processing of the UE.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2019Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.Inventors: Lan Liu, Wanqiang Zhang

Patent number: 10545410Abstract: A lithographic process includes clamping a substrate onto a substrate support, measuring positions across the clamped substrate, and applying a pattern to the clamped substrate using the positions measured. A correction is applied to the positioning of the applied pattern in localized regions of the substrate, based on recognition of a warp-induced characteristic in the positions measured across the substrate. The correction may be generated by inferring one or more shape characteristics of the warped substrate using the measured positions and other information. Based on the one or more inferred shape characteristics, a clamping model is applied to simulate deformation of the warped substrate in response to clamping. A correction is calculated based on the simulated deformation.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2017Date of Patent: January 28, 2020Assignee: ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Hakki Ergun Cekli, Masashi Ishibashi, Leon Paul Van Dijk, Richard Johannes Franciscus Van Haren, Xing Lan Liu, Reiner Maria Jungblut, Cedric Marc Affentauschegg, Ronald Henricus Johannes Otten
