Patent number: 11105611Abstract: A method and apparatus for non-contact measurement of stress in a thin-film deposited on a substrate is disclosed. The method may include positioning a substrate on a plurality of support-elements, the substrate having a thin-film deposited thereupon. A first-polynomial may be defined for representing a surface of the substrate that is in contact with the support elements. A second-polynomial may be determined based on an optimization determination of potential-energy acting upon the substrate. A finite-order polynomial may be created by calculating a product of the first and second polynomials to represent a shape of the surface of the substrate as a model of the surface. Thereafter, stress in the substrate may be determined based on fitting the model of the surface with a measured topographical data of the surface.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2018Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: APPLEJACK 199 L.P.Inventors: Wojciech J Walecki, Wei-Chun Hung, Raphael Morency

Patent number: 9716780Abstract: A telephone device is disclosed. The telephone device has a base, a magnetic field generating device, an ear set, a magnetic sensor and a controller. The base has an ear set accommodating area. The magnetic field generating device situates with the base and generates a magnetic field. The ear set detachably connects with the base. The ear set has a magnetic conducted element. The magnetic sensor situates with the base for detecting the magnetic field. The magnetic field detected by the magnetic sensor is reduced due to interference of the magnetic conducted element when the ear set situates at the ear set accommodating area. The controller electronically connects with the magnetic sensor and determines whether the eat set is situated in the ear set accommodating area based on the change of the magnetic field detected by the magnetic sensor.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2016Date of Patent: July 25, 2017Assignee: Pegatron CorporationInventors: Fen-Ming Yang, Chun-Cheng Chang, Wei-Chun Hung
