Effects of Lightpipe Proximity on Si Wafer Temperature in Rapid Thermal Processing Tools

September 1, 2003
Author(s)
Kenneth G. Kreider, D H. Chen, D P. DeWitt, William A. Kimes, Benjamin K. Tsai
Lightpipe radiation thermometers (LPRTs) are the preferred temperature monitoring sensor in most rapid thermal processing (RTP) tools for semiconductor fabrication. These tools are used for dopant anneal, gate oxide formation, and other high temperature

Impulsive Loading of Cellular Media in Sandwich Construction

July 31, 2005
Author(s)
Joseph A. Main, George A. Gazonas
Motivated by recent efforts to mitigate blast loading using energy absorbing materials, this paper investigates the uniaxial crushing of cellular media in sandwich construction under impulsive pressure loading. The cellular core material is modeled using a

Reexamination of the C2H3+ microwave and infrared spectra

September 29, 2011
Author(s)
Jon T. Hougen, Laurent H. Coudert
… by making several assumptions about the geometry of the ion along the tunneling path. The agreement between fitted … infrared spectrum, least squares fit, protonated acetylene ion, rotational levels, theoretical tunneling model …

Is There a High Energy Particle Population in the Quiet Solar Corona?

December 6, 2006
Author(s)
Yuri Ralchenko, Uri Feldman, G. A. Doschek
A study of spectra emitted by the quiet solar corona indicates that the majority of line intensities originating in low-lying levels are consistent with isothermal plasma of ~1.3 106 K. Nevertheless, a number of line intensities and in particular those

Key Considerations for Microbial Viability Measurements

January 14, 2020
Author(s)
Joy Dunkers, Sandra M. Da Silva, Stephanie Servetas, James J. Filliben, Guilherme L. Pinheiro, Nancy Lin
Making reliable measurements of antimicrobial killing efficacy requires careful consideration of the sources of biological variability, measurement bias and error throughout the entire workflow. For ultraviolet-C (UV-C) disinfection, killing efficacy is

GRADED STRUCTURES FOR ALL-CERAMIC RESTORATIONS

May 17, 2010
Author(s)
Yu Zhang, H Chai, Brian R. Lawn
One failure mode of all-ceramic crown restorations is radial cracking at the cementation surface, from occlusally-induced flexure of the stiffer crown layer on the softer dentin underlayer. We hypothesize that such failure may be substantially mitigated by

Whisker Formation in Pb-Free Surface Finishes

February 2, 2010
Author(s)
Gery R. Stafford, Maureen E. Williams, Jae W. Shin, Kil-Won Moon, William J. Boettinger, Carlos R. Beauchamp
… growth mechanism. Using both deflection measurements of plated cantilever beams and x-ray diffraction methods …

Failure of Glass Layers on Polymeric Substrates From Vickers Indentation

March 25, 2006
Author(s)
Herzl Chai, Brian R. Lawn
A study is made of median crack evolution in brittle coatings subjected to sharp contacts. A model bilayer system consisting of a glass plate bonded to a polycarbonate base, with a Vickers pyramid as indenter, is used to demonstrate the evolution in situ

Contact Damage in Brittle Coating Layers: Influence of Surface Curvature

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
T Qasim, M T. Bush, X Z. Hu, Brian R. Lawn
Fracture from indentation by a hard sphere on bilayer systems composed of curved brittle coating layers on compliant polymeric substrates is investigated, in simulation of dental crown structures. Glass plates 1 mm thick are used are used as representative
