Abstract: Multiple charge volumes (CVs) are used to supply a reactant and an inert gas at each processing chamber to perform atomic layer deposition (ALD) on substrates. A series of pulses of the reactant can be supplied at a high flow rate from two CVs during a dose step, which extends dose time. The inert gas can be supplied at an equal starting pressure from first and second CVs at first and second purge steps. A heated pulse valve manifold (PVM) minimizes temperature variations of process gases supplied from the PVM to respective processing chamber during ALD. The PVM preheats the process gases before the process gases enter the respective CVs in the PVM. The PVM includes additional supplemental heaters above and below the CVs to maintain the temperature of the process gases within the CVs. The PVM can be rapidly cooled before performing maintenance, which reduces downtime.

The second sensor is fixed relative to the first sensor, is axially offset from the first sensor, and is configured to determine ex-situ wobble of the susceptor assembly. Fixture arrangements and methods of determining ex-situ runout and ex-situ wobble of susceptor assemblies for semiconductor processing systems are also described.

Abstract: The present invention provides for novel synthetic approach of solid phase synthesis of peptides with C-terminal Aspartic acid by anchoring the side chain carboxylic group of aspartic acid to the solid support to avoid the formation of various impurities and thus resulting in higher yield and ease the purification process. The present invention further provides the usage of free amino acids and reducing agents as antioxidants in the cleavage cocktail to negate the formation of oxidative impurities formed during the global cleavage and isolation of the peptide from solid support.

Abstract: A data management system (DMS) may facilitate the storage tiering of snapshots on cloud environments. For example, the DMS may transmit snapshot signaling to a first cloud environment that instructs the first cloud environment to capture a first snapshot of a computing object and to store the first snapshot in a first type of cloud storage at the first cloud environment. The DMS may determine that the first snapshot has been stored in the first type of cloud storage for a duration of time that satisfies an archival threshold. Based on the archival threshold being satisfied, the DMS may transmit archival signaling that instructs the first cloud environment to store the first snapshot to a second type of cloud storage. The second type of cloud storage may be associated with a longer access latency than the first type of cloud storage.

The system provides various customer centric systems and processes by providing harmonization of data with dependencies of important embodiments such as data classification and MFR-MPN extraction that are not dependent on any other stage. Attribute extraction is dependent on data classification and data sheet definition. Post processing is dependent on data classification, data sheet definition and attributes extraction. Identify L2 dups is dependent on data classification, data sheet definition, attribute extraction and post processing. Non-Source enrichment and Identify L1 dups are dependent on MFR-MPN extraction.

Abstract: Multiple approaches to incorporating multiple conductors on a guidewire by building the multiple conductor traces of variable sizes and material compositions on separate insulating layers are described. The approaches described in the invention facilitate ease of assembly of sensors to the guidewire or catheter element. This approach is particularly useful in scenarios where electrical or mechanical properties of the device need to be altered in specific sections to either enhance device performance and reliability (e.g. selective abrasion resistance), or facilitate ease of assembly (e.g. soldering or connection ease), or in some instances achieve desired electrical characteristics (e.g. impedance). The desired properties are incorporated into the same device requiring an innovative approach to forming signal wires in an otherwise tight space without impacting the primary mechanical performance of the devices.

Abstract: Systems and methods for cognitive information mining are provided. A cognitive information extraction system provides intelligent information extraction from documents in different formats, types and forms. Since a huge portion of the data and information is still stored in unstructured documents in physical format, the system provides for a framework to extract information from such documents. Further, even in the digital form, the documents are available in multiple different formats, which can act as a great hindrance to useful extract information. The invention focuses upon mitigating this scenario by combining multiple AI models and modules to create a framework for document processing and human-machine interaction for training and QC verification, wherein the framework provides user the flexibility to work upon multiple types of documents, and also ensures that accuracy is maintained while the information is being extracted.
