Publication number: 20240241083Abstract: A system and method for determining the changes in resonance frequency in crystal microbalance (CM) sensors and the resulting changes in the determination of incremental mass on the CM sensors caused by temperature. Dual mode resonances and coefficients are used in a deconvolution process to determine and extract the frequency shift caused by temperature to provide the temperature compensated incremental mass (?M). In one embodiment, dual mode analysis is provided using a mass mode (e.g., the c-mode fundamental frequency (fc100)) and a temperature mode (e.g., the anharmonic frequency (fc102)) and associated coefficients. In other embodiments that are more sensitive to temperature changes, dual mode analysis is provided using the b-mode fundamental frequency (fb100) as the temperature-mode and associated coefficients.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2022Publication date: July 18, 2024Applicant: INFICON, Inc.Inventors: Chunhua Song, Mohamed B. Rinzan, Steve James Lakeman, Lukas Baumgartel, Matan Lapidot, Brian O'Neill

Publication number: 20240126751Abstract: A method includes obtaining, at a first data provider, a first query generation request. The method also includes determining whether a first query, that is to be generated based on the first query generation request, is approved. In response to a determination that the first query, that is to be generated, is approved, the method also includes generating the first query. The method further includes sharing the generated first query with a second data provider.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 26, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: VIDEOAMP, INC.Inventors: Austin Douglas Guthals, Christian Romano, Jack Haocheng Wang, Phuc Hong Ngo, Steve James Whalen, Ramzi Joseph Nasr

Patent number: 11929270Abstract: A monitoring device for monitoring a fabrication process in a fabrication system. The monitored fabrication system includes a process chamber and a plurality of flow components. A quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor monitors one flow component of the plurality of flow components of the fabrication system and is configured for exposure to a process chemistry in the one flow component during the fabrication process. A controller measures resonance frequency shifts of the QCM sensor due to interactions between the QCM sensor and the process chemistry in the one flow component during the fabrication process. The controller determines a parameter of the fabrication process in the process chamber as a function of the measured resonance frequency shifts of the QCM sensor within the one flow component.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2022Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Inventors: Mohamed Buhary Rinzan, Chunhua Song, Steve James Lakeman
