  • Gas flow accelerator to prevent buildup of processing byproduct in a main pumping line of a semiconductor processing tool
    Patent number: 11972957
    Abstract: A gas flow accelerator may include a body portion, and a tapered body portion including a first end integrally formed with the body portion. The gas flow accelerator may include an inlet port connected to the body portion and to receive a process gas to be removed from a semiconductor processing tool by a main pumping line. The semiconductor processing tool may include a chuck and a chuck vacuum line to apply a vacuum to the chuck to retain a semiconductor device. The tapered body portion may be configured to generate a rotational flow of the process gas to prevent buildup of processing byproduct on interior walls of the main pumping line. The gas flow accelerator may include an outlet port integrally formed with a second end of the tapered body portion. An end portion of the chuck vacuum line may be provided through the outlet port.

  • Computer system and method thereof for scalable data processing
    Patent number: 9767770
    Abstract: A computer system for processing of data received from a remote device. The computer system includes a master device and at least one slave device. The master device is communicably coupled to the remote device and has a display and a memory. The master device partitions the data into one or more sub data. The at least one slave device is coupled to the master device. The master device delegates processing of the one or more sub data to one or more of the at least one slave device, and the one or more of the at least one slave device correspondingly to the one or more sub data generate processed sub data. The master device stores the processed sub data and outputs the processed sub data to the display.
