Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices implementing techniques for dicing bonded wafers using laser technologies are described. A bonded wafer includes an optically transmissive substrate bonded with a semiconductor substrate. The optically transmissive substrate is irradiated using a first laser technology associated with perforating the optically transmissive substrate to form damage tracks. The semiconductor substrate is irradiated using a second laser technology associated with forming damage regions within the semiconductor substrate. The damage regions of the semiconductor substrate are aligned with the damage tracks of the optically transmissive substrate during irradiation of the semiconductor substrate or the optically transmissive substrate, forming an aligned region through the bonded wafer with a relatively high likelihood for fracture.

Abstract: Treatment fields can be produced as part of a treatment plan that achieves a desired balance between field delivery time and dose based on machine parameters and knowledge, such as machine-specific beam production, transport and scanning logic, and/or a maximum treatment time value. The treatment parameters can be adjusted using a graphical user interface so that treatment time or dosimetry is prioritized. As a result, the overall treatment time is reduced, and hence treatment quality and patient experience are improved.

Abstract: Transformation of source data from a source field of a source table to a target field of a target table using data transformation archetypes. A set of data transformation archetypes may be defined that each comprises transformation code for transforming the source data. A data transformation archetype may be identified by a data transformation toolkit engine for application to the source data based on the target field of the target table. In this way, a characteristic or relationship of the target field (e.g., as described by a target schema and/or target semantic) may be used to identify the data transformation archetype for use in transforming source data mapped to the target field. Accordingly, a more efficient and less error-prone Export, Transform, and Load (ETL) tool may be provided that provides automation of the transformation without requiring a user to dictate the transformation operations manually.
