Patent number: 8202334Abstract: The method provides a method of preparing a silicate-containing polishing pad useful for polishing at least one of semiconductor, magnetic and optical substrates. The method includes introducing a feed stream of gas-filled polymeric microelements into a gas jet. The polymeric microelements have varied densities, varied wall thickness and varied particle size. Passing the gas-filled microelements in the gas jet adjacent a Coanda block, the Coanda block having a curved wall for separates the polymeric microelements with Coanda effect, inertia and gas flow resistance. The coarse polymeric microelements from the curved wall of the Coanda block to clean the polymeric microelements. The polymeric microelements collected contain less than 0.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2010Date of Patent: June 19, 2012Assignee: Rohm and Haas Electronic Materials CMP Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Donna M.

Publication number: 20100025932Abstract: A method of sorting, displaying, and dealing a deck of cards to allow one or more players an opportunity to memorize an order of one or more of the cards, such that card games may become games of memorization and recall abilities. The method may comprise displaying a facing side of each card such that players may memorize an order of at least some of the cards, positioning the cards in a stack such that the order of the cards is not changed, dividing or cutting the stack into a top portion and a bottom portion, showing the players the facing side of a cut card, placing the top portion together with the bottom portion such that the top portion and the bottom portion exchange positions within the stack, and dealing the cards to the players without changing the order of the cards as they are dealt.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 31, 2009Publication date: February 4, 2010Applicant: THREE KINGS HOLDINGS LLCInventors: Curtis Shawn Riley, Kurt R. McPhail, Shane A. McCullough

Publication number: 20090001137Abstract: A brazing material for brazing tungsten/carbide/cobalt substrates (e.g., wear pads) to substrates comprising titanium or alloys thereof (e.g., fan or compressor blades). The brazing material includes gold, nickel, copper, and titanium present in respective amounts to provide a post-braze hardness of between 450 and 600 KHN to thereby increase the impact resistance of the braze joint. The substrates may be brazed by induction heating at temperatures less than about 1800° F. (982° C.).Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2008Publication date: January 1, 2009Inventors: Kazim Ozbaysal, Shawn Riley

Publication number: 20050000414Abstract: A method and apparatus for applying contacts to a semiconductor substrate, comprising one or more applicator rolls. Each applicator roll comprises a printing surface which has at least one raised pattern surface. Each raised first pattern surface is positioned such that upon rotation of the first rotatable applicator roll, it passes through a printing space. As a result, a surface of a semiconductor substrate passing through the printing space while the raised pattern surface(s) is covered with a conductive ink and the applicator roll is being rotated comes into contact with the conductive ink on at least part of the raised pattern surface, and does not come into contact with conductive ink on substantially any of the printing surface other than the raised pattern surface. Accordingly, a conductive ink pattern is deposited on the semiconductor substrate surface. In a preferred aspect, the conductive ink is a hot melt ink.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2004Publication date: January 6, 2005Applicant: ASTROPOWER, INC.Inventors: Jerome Culik, Shawn Riley, Frank Faller, Kevin Allison
