1. Enhancing 9 nm Node Dense Patterned Defect Optical Inspection using Polarization, Angle, and Focus
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 4/10/2013
Authors: Bryan M Barnes, Francois Romain Francis Goasmat, Martin Yeungjoon Sohn, Hui Zhou, Abraham Arceo
Abstract: To measure the new SEMATECH 9 nm node Intentional Defect Array (IDA) and subsequent small, complex defects, a methodology has been used to exploit the rich information content generated when simulating or acquiring several images of sub-wavelength-si ...

2. 3-D Optical Metrology of Finite sub-20 nm Dense Arrays using Fourier Domain Normalization
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 3/25/2013
Authors: Jing Qin, Hui Zhou, Bryan M Barnes, Ronald G Dixson, Richard M Silver
Abstract: Reduced target dimensions requiring improved resolution and sensitivity have driven the need to use and analyze the phase and scattered frequency information available when using image-based scatterometry systems. One such system is scatterfield micr ...

3. SCATTERFIELD MICROSCOPY, REVIEW OF TECHNIQUES THAT PUSH THE FUNDAMENTAL LIMITS OF OPTICAL DEFECT METROLOGY
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 3/25/2013
Authors: Richard M Silver, Bryan M Barnes, Francois Romain Francis Goasmat, Hui Zhou, Martin Yeungjoon Sohn
Abstract: The semiconductor manufacturing industry is now facing serious challenges in achieving defect detection rates with acceptable throughput and accuracy. With conventional bright-field and dark- field inspection methods now at their limits, it has b ...

4. Discriminating the states of matter in metallic nanoparticle transformations: What are we missing?
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 2/20/2013
Authors: John M. Pettibone, Julien Claude Maurice Gigault, Vincent A Hackley
Abstract: A limiting factor in assessing the risk of current and emerging nanomaterials in biological and environmental systems is the ability to accurately detect and characterize their size, shape and composition in broad distributions and complex media. Asy ...

5. Protective performance of environmentally stressed fabrics containing melamine fiber blends
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 1/12/2013
Authors: Shonali Nazare, Shaun M. Flynn, Rick D Davis, Joannie W Chin
Abstract: In this study, environmentally stressed OS fabrics containing melamine fiber blends were evaluated for thermal and mechanical properties that are critical to the protective performance of firefighter turnout gear. Environmental stress factors that a ...

6. Spectroscopy and imaging of edge modes in Permalloy nanodisks
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 1/3/2013
Authors: Feng Guo, Lyubov Belova, Robert D McMichael
Abstract: This paper reports spectroscopy and imaging of spin wave modes using ferromagnetic resonance force microscopy (FMRFM) in Permalloy nano-disks with disk diameters that range from 100 nm to 750 nm. The ferromagnetic resonance spectra distinguish multip ...

7. Evaluation of a drop-on-demand micro-dispensing system for development of artificial fingerprints
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 12/7/2012
Authors: Jessica L Staymates, Matthew E Staymates, John G Gillen
Abstract: Precision micro-dispensing is a growing technique that has many applications in the scientific and additive manufacturing communities. Piezoelectric inkjet printing is capable of accurately dispensing exceedingly small volumes of low-viscosity soluti ...

9. Two dimensional spectroscopic imaging of individual ferromagnetic nanostripes
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 11/6/2012
Authors: Han-Jong H. Chia, Feng Guo, Lyubov Belova, Robert D McMichael
Abstract: We use ferromagnetic resonance force microscopy (FMRFM) to spectroscopically image the edge modes in individual 700 and 400 nm wide Permalloy stripes with a spatial resolution on the order of 200 nm. The imaging clearly identies some resonances as ...

10. SCIENCE-BASED METRICS FOR PRODUCT SUSTAINABILITY ASSESSMENT
Topic: Environment/Climate
Published: 9/30/2012
Author: Barbara Cassard Lippiatt
Abstract: Consumers and manufacturers need compelling metrics, tools, and data supporting investments in sustainable products. Today’s marketplace is fraught with sustainability claims that are often based on incomplete, anecdotal evidence that is difficult to ...
