Abstract: Exemplary semiconductor processing systems include a processing chamber, a power supply, and a chuck disposed at least partially within the processing chamber. The chuck includes a chuck body defining a vacuum port. The chuck also includes first and second coplanar electrodes embedded in the chuck body and connected to the power supply. In some examples, coplanar electrodes include concentric electrodes defining a concentric gap in between. Exemplary semiconductor processing methods may include activating the power supply for the electrostatic chuck to secure a semiconductor substrate on the body of the chuck and/or activating the vacuum port defined by the body of the electrostatic chuck. Some processing can be carried out at increased pressure, while other processing can be carried out at reduced pressure with increased chucking voltage.

Abstract: This disclosure pertains to compositions and methods for reducing serum cholesterol in mammalian subjects. The exemplary compositions comprise mixtures of HSP27 protein or fragments thereof, a HSP25 protein or fraction thereof, a recombinant rHSP25 peptide, or a recombinant HSP27 peptide in a mixture with an adjuvant. The compositions may optionally comprise anti-HSP27 antibody. The methods for reducing serum cholesterol in mammalian subjects relate to the use of the compositions to increase the subjects' levels of serum HSP27 and/or anti-HSP27 antibodies.

Abstract: A photovoltaic building material, which can safely generate electric power with solar power energy is disclosed. The photovoltaic building material can be used as building material, and can be directly installed on the fixed part of the building, such as roof, wall or decoration materials on the surface of building. The photovoltaic building material is accord with the architectural requirements of waterproof, fireproof, load-carrying ability, durability and heat-insulation. When this invention is installed on the roof, the automatic spraying device can be set up on the height of ridge, which realizes the functions of roof cleaning and cooling down by the automatic water spraying. Also, with the auxiliary device, this invention can intensify the ability to withstand strong winds for roof, and can ensure safety in the typhoon/hurricane area.
