InactiveUS20070288121A1Improve accuracyScaling errorDigital data processing detailsSemiconductor/solid-state device manufacturingComputational physicsShort term stability
Positional information of a movable body in a Y-axis direction is measured using an interferometer and an encoder whose short-term stability of measurement values excels when compared with the interferometer, and based on the measurement results, a predetermined calibration operation for obtaining correction information for correcting measurement values of the encoder is performed. Accordingly, by using measurement values of the interferometer, correction information for correcting the measurement values of the encoder whose short-term stability of the measurement values excels the interferometer is obtained. Then, based on the measurement values of the encoder and the correction information, the movable body is driven in the Y-axis direction with good precision.

Methods and compositions are disclosed for the preparation of free radical scavenging polymers and polymer films functionalized with antioxidants. Enzymatic and chemical tailoring of monomers with antioxidants followed by enzymatic polymerization is described. These antioxidant functionalized polymers can increase shelf life and quality of food products, as well as, increase effectiveness of pharmaceutical agents when used as packaging or as coatings on packaging for oxygen sensitive materials. The novel enzymatic covalent coupling of antioxidants to a polymer enhances the free radical scavenging ability of packaging while also inhibiting the escape of the antioxidants, and thus limiting exposure and / or absorption by an individual. In addition to its use in food or pharmaceutical packaging, methods are disclosed for using the antioxidant coupled polymers in a variety of applications including as coatings on the inside of medical devices, such as stents and catheters, which would substantially reduce free radical damage and / or oxygen depletion during medical procedures. Furthermore, through the coupling of antioxidants to biodegradable polymers, controlled delivery and sustained release of an antioxidant to a subject is possible.

InactiveUS20090033900A1High accuracyStable drivingPhotomechanical apparatusUsing optical meansMoving averageServo control
First positional information of a stage is measured using an interferometer system, for example, an X interferometer and a Y interferometer. At the same time, second positional information of the stage is measured using an encoder system, for example, one X head and one Y head. A coordinate offset is set by performing a moving average of the difference between the first positional information and the second positional information for over a predetermined measurement time, and the reliability of output signals of the encoder system is verified using the coordinate offset. In the case the output signals are determined to be normal, the stage is servocontrolled using the sum of the first positional information and the coordinate offset. Such servocontrol by a hybrid method makes it possible to perform drive control of the stage having stability of the interferometer and accuracy of the encoder together.
