  • Radiotherapy dose distribution measurement
    Patent number: 10434339
    Abstract: A method for measurement of dose distribution in a radiotherapy apparatus includes providing a detector holder situated at least partially within a tank, the detector holder comprising a radio-opaque marker and a visual reference point, the marker and the reference point being separated and in a fixed spatial relationship to each other; locating the tank within a bore of the radiotherapy apparatus; rotating a gantry and monitoring the position of the detector holder with an imaging apparatus; vertically displacing the detector holder until the reference point is positioned at a desired level, and adding liquid to or removing liquid from the tank until the surface of the liquid is level with the reference point. Features of the detector holder and tank are also described.

  • Endoscopic and transesophageal oropharyngeal airway
    Patent number: 10413689
    Abstract: An oropharyngeal airway for use during diagnostic and surgical procedures, comprising a body with a proximal and a distal end. The distal end is sized for insertion through a protective bite block disposed in a patient's mouth. Both sides of the distal end are tapered to a curved distal edge. A flange is transversely opposed at the proximal end, preventing the proximal end from moving through the protective bite block and into the patient's mouth. An elliptically-arched channel in the shape of a lingual contour extends from the proximal end to the distal end. The channel includes a pair of tapered upstanding walls that guide the passage of a surgical instrument through the space between them. The oropharyngeal airway can be constructed of recyclable or biodegradable materials and is compatible with protective bite blocks of all sizes.

  • Key-Attestation-Contingent Certificate Issuance
    Publication number: 20190280883
    Abstract: The present invention provides for streamlined issuance of certificates and other tokens that are contingent on key attestation of keys from a trusted platform module within a computing platform. Various methods are described for wrapping the requested token in a secret, such as an AES key, that is encrypted to a TPM based key in a key challenge. If the requesting platform fails the key challenge, the encrypted certificate or token cannot be decrypted. If requesting platform passes the challenge, the encrypted certificate or token can be decrypted using the AES key recovered from the key challenge.

  • RECIPE SELECTION BASED ON INTER-RECIPE CONSISTENCY
    Publication number: 20190271921
    Abstract: A method including: determining recipe consistencies between one substrate measurement recipe of a plurality of substrate measurement recipes and each other substrate measurement recipe of the plurality of substrate measurement recipes; calculating a function of the recipe consistencies; eliminating the one substrate measurement recipe from the plurality of substrate measurement recipes if the function meets a criterion; and reiterating the determining, calculating and eliminating until a termination condition is met. Also disclosed herein is a substrate measurement apparatus, including a storage configured to store a plurality of substrate measurement recipes, and a processor configured to select one or more substrate measurement recipes from the plurality of substrate measurement recipes based on recipe consistencies among the plurality of substrate measurement recipes.

  • Inspection method, lithographic apparatus, mask and substrate
    Patent number: 10394137
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for obtaining focus information relating to a lithographic process. The method includes illuminating a target, the target having alternating first and second structures, wherein the form of the second structures is focus dependent, while the form of the first structures does not have the same focus dependence as that of the second structures, and detecting radiation redirected by the target to obtain for that target an asymmetry measurement representing an overall asymmetry of the target, wherein the asymmetry measurement is indicative of focus of the beam forming the target. An associated mask for forming such a target, and a substrate having such a target.

  • Phase delay difference-based channel compensation
    Patent number: 10389555
    Abstract: A technique includes determining a first phase delay associated with communication of a bit pattern having a first bit transition frequency over a communication channel; and determining a second phase delay associated with communication of a bit pattern having a second bit transition frequency greater than the first bit transition frequency over the communication channel. The technique includes regulating a compensation applied to a signal received from the communication channel based at least in part on a difference of the first and second phase delays.
