Patterned Wafer Effects

2004
Chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) is used in integrated circuit manufacturing to remove material from patterned wafer surfaces. The term “polishing” or “planarization” is used to describe two types of processes: 1) topography reduction of surface features that result from deposition, etch, or other thin-film processes, and 2) removal (“polish back ...

Effect of visual noise on pattern recognition

Experimental Brain Research, 2005
We recognize objects even when they are partially degraded by visual noise. Using monkeys performing a sequential delayed match-to-sample task, we studied the relation between the amount of visual noise (5, 10, 15, 20 or 25%) degrading the eight black and white stimuli used here, and the accuracy and speed with which matching stimuli were identified ...

Nonadiabatic effects in optical pattern formation

Physical Review A, 2001
Summary form only given. Tuning instability leading to pattern formation in cavity nonlinear optics is generally described in terms of a tilted-wave mechanism that provides a simple geometric and linear picture of the fact that diffractive off-axis waves can fit the cavity resonance allowing maximum energy extraction from the medium.

Demonstrating the Effectiveness of Process Improvement Patterns

2013
Improving the operational efficiency of processes is an important goal of business process management (BPM). There exist many proposals with regard to process improvement patterns (PIPs) as practices that aim at supporting this task. Nevertheless, there is still a gap with respect to validating PIPs in terms of their actual business value for a ...

THE EFFECT OF INFANTILE DISEASE ON EGO PATTERNS

American Journal of Psychiatry, 1953
Probably no greater quantitative or qualitative effect is imposed upon the ego or its rudiment than that from disturbances during the earliest weeks and months of life when soma and psyche constitute one undifferentiated system. It is generally accepted that the most embryonic, most rapidly growing, or youngest somatic tissues, or maturing patterns of ...

The effects of complexity on the perception of vibrotactile patterns

Perception & Psychophysics, 1991
Vibrotactile patterns were presented to subjects' left index fingerpads using the array from the Optacon. A set of simple (one-line) patterns and a set of complex (two-line) patterns were constructed so that they were equally identifiable when presented individually.

A pattern effect compensator

2001
Degradation of high power signals is observed at bitrates comparable to the gain recovery time in Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers (SOA). The device studied here reduces this pattern effect of SOAs. It is a non-linear Mach-Zehnder interferometer with a SOA in each branch.
