  • Patent number: 9934979
    Abstract: A two piece ceramic showerhead includes upper and lower plates which deliver process gas to an inductively coupled plasma processing chamber. The upper plate overlies the lower plate and includes radially extending gas passages which extend inwardly from an outer periphery of the upper plate, axially extending gas passages in fluid communication with the radially extending gas passages and an annular recess forming a plenum between the upper and lower plates. The lower plate includes axially extending gas holes in fluid communication with the plenum. The upper plate can include eight radially extending gas passages evenly spaced around the periphery of the upper plate and the lower plate can include inner and outer rows of gas holes. The two piece ceramic showerhead forms a dielectric window of the chamber through which radiofrequency energy generated by an antenna is coupled into the chamber.

  • Patent number: 9378685
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate generally to generating images, and more particularly, to systems, apparatuses, integrated circuits, computer-readable media, and methods to facilitate the use of three dimensional color synthesis techniques to reproduce colors properly using, for example, two sub-pixel mosaics, at a boundary between two colors. A method can include receiving into a color element a first colored illuminant and a second colored illuminant. The method also can include determining that the color element is configured to generate a color that has one or more color characteristics for a portion of the reproduced image. Further, the method can include modifying at least one of the first colored illuminant and the second colored illuminant to adjust the one or more color characteristics into a range of values associated with a portion of an image that corresponds to the portion of the reproduced image.

    Assignee: Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation
    Inventor: Michael Kang
  • Patent number: 9269309
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention facilitate high-dynamic-range (HDR) imaging by generating portions of spatial and/or temporal luminance patterns with different spectral power distributions substantially concurrent with, for example, the modulation of the light intensity associated with the portions of luminance patterns. The method can include predicting luminance patterns associated with multiple spectral power distributions. The method also can include distributing portions of the luminance patterns in one or more temporal fields. In some embodiments, distributing the portions of the luminance patterns can include interlacing those portions. Further, the method can include modulating light intensities of the luminance patterns to produce an age with other spectral power distributions. In some embodiments, the distribution of the luminance pattern portions can be substantially synchronous with modulating the light intensity of the luminance patterns.

  • Patent number: 9022582
    Abstract: Embodiments relate generally to computer-based image processing, and more particularly, to systems, computer-readable media, methods, integrated circuits, and apparatuses to facilitate operation of a projection system with relatively high dynamic range output by, among other things, providing subsets of light patterns along an optical path during respective first and second temporal fields associated with respective first and second illuminants. The projection system can synthesize color for projectable images by combining or otherwise using the subsets of light patterns with an array of color elements to produce projectable images with color in at least the visible spectrum.

  • Patent number: 8970114
    Abstract: A temperature controlled dielectric window of an inductively coupled plasma processing chamber includes a dielectric window forming a top wall of the plasma processing chamber having at least first and second channels therein. A liquid circulating system includes a source of cold liquid circulating in a first closed loop which is not in fluid communication with the channels, a source of hot liquid circulating in a second closed loop which is in fluid communication with the channels, and first and second heat exchangers. The cold liquid passes through the first heat exchanger at a controllable flow rate and temperature of the hot liquid is adjusted by heat exchange with the cold liquid as the hot liquid passes through the first heat exchanger and then through the inlet of the first channel.
