Publication number: 20230274361Abstract: Improvements in distributed ledger technology for capturing, maintaining and updating data for asset-backed securitizations are described. The invention provides a distributed ledger platform which automates the capture of specified data regarding the underlying financial assets, including owners, trustees, servicers and other parties associated with asset-backed securitizations, and stores and maintains the data in a blockchain to provide users with a secure, reliable, immutable and distributed ledger of the data and to generate custom data reports of information stored in the ledger. An offchain database may be maintained in synchrony with the blockchain to allow for reduced computational load. The invention also provides a mechanism for managing changes in the data using a smart contract based consensus mechanism, for example, to record securitization party replacements in an automated manner.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 13, 2021Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Michael A.

Patent number: 11136665Abstract: Embodiments of the invention contemplate a shadow ring that provides increased or decreased and more uniform deposition on the edge of a wafer. By removing material from the top and/or bottom surfaces of the shadow ring, increased edge deposition and bevel coverage can be realized. In one embodiment, the material on the bottom surface is reduced by providing a recessed slot on the bottom surface. By increasing the amount of material of the shadow ring, the edge deposition and bevel coverage is reduced. Another approach to adjusting the deposition at the edge of the wafer includes increasing or decreasing the inner diameter of the shadow ring. The material forming the shadow ring may also be varied to change the amount of deposition at the edge of the wafer.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2019Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Dale Du Bois, Mohamad A.
