  • Publication number: 20200323179
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for inducing artificial hibernation of fish that is capable of transporting the fish in a state of being alive for long hours. According to the present invention, a water temperature is gradually decreased from an initial water temperature to the lowest water temperature, the fish are induced to the artificial hibernation, and they are packed in a waterless state. The packing is carried out in an environment where the lowest water temperature is constantly maintained, and a refrigerant is also packed to constantly maintain a temperature in a packing container, while oxygen is continuously supplied to the live fish induced to the artificial hibernation. The fish are individually packed in the Styrofoam box, and even if an atmospheric pressure in the airport is lowered during transport of the fish, there is no danger of causing respiration of the fish to be hard due to a plastic bag damaged.

  • Patent number: 10739685
    Abstract: Photoresist layers are exposed to an exposure beam by using an exposure tool assembly, wherein the photoresist layers coat semiconductor substrates and wherein for each exposure a current exposure parameter set is used that includes at least a defocus value and an exposure dose. The exposed photoresist layers are developed, wherein resist patterns are formed from the photoresist layers. Feature characteristics in the resist patterns and/or in substrate patterns derived from the resist patterns are measured. The current exposure parameter set is updated in response to deviations of the measured feature characteristics from target feature characteristics. De-corrected feature characteristics of hypothetical resist patterns are estimated, which would be formed without updating the exposure parameter set. In response to information obtained from the de-corrected feature characteristics the measurement strategy for the feature characteristics may be changed or the current exposure parameter set may be updated.
