    Abstract: A plasma processing chamber has an upper window with a coil disposed above the upper window. A coil connection enclosure is disposed above the coil. A metrology enclosure is disposed above the coil connection enclosure. A spectral reflectometry system is disposed within the metrology enclosure. The spectral reflectometry system includes an optical collimator positioned to direct a beam of light through an opening in the metrology enclosure, an opening in the coil connection enclosure, and the upper window into the plasma processing chamber. The optical collimator is also configured to receive reflected light from within the plasma processing chamber, where the reflected light passes through the upper window and through the opening in the coil connection enclosure and through the opening in the metrology enclosure. A tip angle and a tilt angle of the optical collimator are remotely adjusted to optimize an orientation of the optical collimator.

  • Publication number: 20240334172
    Abstract: A system and method for generating and transmitting emergency messages and for maintaining real-time emergency communications sessions between users and emergency dispatch centers. A system receives data transmitted from a user device and constructs an emergency message related to a specific type of emergency scenario as well as the location, meta-data and background information of the user. The generated emergency message is transmitted via a communications network and delivered to an appropriate emergency dispatch center. The method enables the user to deliver a detailed request for help regardless of his or her location or, in another instance, delivers the basic emergency response related information for the user. The generated emergency message is universally compatible with emergency communications center infrastructure so long as the communications centers possess basic voice call equipment.
