  • Patent number: 7304319
    Abstract: A charge compensation device according to this invention is for suppressing charging of a wafer when the wafer is irradiated with a beam from a beam generation source unit. The charge compensation device comprises at least one first arc chamber having at least one first extraction hole and a second arc chamber having at least one second extraction hole faced on the reciprocal swinging beam of the predetermined scan range. A first arc voltage is applied to the first arc chamber to generate first plasma in the first arc chamber. The generated first plasma is extracted from the first arc chamber and introduced into the second arc chamber. Second plasma is produced in the second arc chamber, and second extracted plasma from the second arc chamber forms a plasma bridge between the second extraction hole and the reciprocal swinging beam.

  • Patent number: 7103833
    Abstract: When print data PD generated by applications 100 is supplied to a graphics library 110 in an order of describing objects, the graphics library 110 makes correspond print data PD to objects so as to store print data PD in a metafile 120. After print data for one page has been stored in the metafile 120, the metafile 120 is retrieved. Thus, print data PD is reconstructed for each band. A printer driver 130 converts reconstructed print data PD into the PDL data PD? so as to transfer the PDL data PD? to an output apparatus 2. A decomposer 140 does not generate intermediate format data and directly develops the PDL data PD? in a band buffer 22. An output device 24 reads raster data RD from the band buffer 22 so as to print an image on a paper sheet.
