  • Publication number: 20240134280
    Abstract: A polymer containing a structural unit including an aromatic hydroxy group bonded to a main chain, where the aromatic hydroxy group is protected by an acid-labile group represented by the following formula (ALU-1) and is deprotected by action of an acid to become alkali-soluble. This provides: a polymer that makes it possible to form a resist film with which it is possible to form a pattern having extremely high isolated space resolution, small LER, and excellent rectangularity, effects of development loading and residue defects being suppressed, and the pattern having etching resistance and suppressed pattern collapse in the produced resist pattern; a chemically amplified positive resist composition containing the polymer; a resist patterning process using the chemically amplified positive resist composition; and a mask blank including the chemically amplified positive resist composition.

  • Patent number: 11964402
    Abstract: In a robot control system, the operation of a mobile robot that moves autonomously inside a facility is controlled based at least on an image captured by a photographing device that photographs a blind area located at a blind angle to the mobile robot. When entry of the mobile robot into a predetermined area corresponding to the blind area is detected, the amount of information obtainable from an image captured by the photographing device is increased.

  • Publication number: 20240121152
    Abstract: When a controller receives a tunnel setting order from a high-order Ops (operation system), the controller divides the setting order into a first setting processing step related to setting registration of a user, a second setting processing step related to a transfer surface of the tunnel, a third setting processing step related to an interface of each transfer apparatus used for a tunnel of the transfer surface, and a fourth setting processing step related to a parameter to be set to the interface and stores the setting processing steps in a setting management DB. Subsequently, the controller creates a configuration for executing each setting processing step indicated in the tunnel setting order by reflecting information indicated in each divided setting processing step to a template of each setting processing step. In addition, the controller inputs the created configuration to a transfer apparatus at a setting destination of the tunnel.
