Patent number: 9470637Abstract: Methods and systems for designing a binary spatial filter based on data indicative of a desired exposure condition to be emulated by an inspection system, and for implementing the binary spatial filter in an optical path of the inspection system, thereby enabling emulation of the desired exposure condition by interacting a light beam of the inspection system with the binary spatial filter. The present method and systems enable on-the-fly and on-demand design and implementation/generation of spatial filters for use in inspection systems.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2015Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: APPLIED MATERIALS ISRAEL, LTD.Inventors: Shmuel Mangan, Amir Sagiv, Mariano Abramson

Patent number: 6517967Abstract: A high capacity primary (single-use; non-rechargeable) battery pack for high current portable appliances such as cellular phones employs electrochemical cells that use ambient oxygen for one of the electrodes. The pack makes possible a simple low cost design by providing for oxygen supply in a completely passive yet compact configuration. Cells may be arranged inside a housing in a tightly packed arrangement by providing internal spaces that are sized to permit diffusion and, if possible, bulk air flow. The highest volumetric energy density is achievable by permitting bulk flow of air into the housing. It has been found that in practical use, in applications such as cellular telephones, that bulk air flow can play a significant role in gas exchange required for operation. A number of design criteria are developed for providing for a mix of molecular diffusion and bulk flow in the design of battery packs according to the invention.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 1999Date of Patent: February 11, 2003Assignee: Electric Fuel LimitedInventors: Yaron Shrim, Menachem Givon, Tzvi Rosenberg, Neal Naimer, Mariano Abramson, Jonathan Goldstein, Mark Slutski
