An electrosurgical medical device and method for creating thermal welds in engaged tissue. In one embodiment, at least one jaw of the instrument defines a tissue engagement plane carrying a conductive-resistive matrix of a conductively-doped non-conductive elastomer. The engagement surface portions thus can be described as a positive temperature coefficient material that has a unique selected decreased electrical conductance at each selected increased temperature thereof over a targeted treatment range. The conductive-resistive matrix can be engineered to bracket a targeted thermal treatment range, for example about 60° C. to 80° C., at which tissue welding can be accomplished. In one mode of operation, the engagement plane will automatically modulate and spatially localize ohmic heating within the engaged tissue from Rf energy application—across micron-scale portions of the engagement surface.

White ceramic LED package

The present invention is directed to leadless LED packages and LED displays utilizing white ceramic casings and thin / low profile packages with improved color mixing and structural integrity. In some embodiments, the improved color mixing is provided, in part, by the white ceramic package casing, which can help reflect light emitted from each LED in many directions away from the device. The non-linear arrangement of the LEDs can also contribute to improved color-mixing. The improved structural integrity can be provided by various features in the bond pads that cooperate with the casing for a stronger package structure. Moreover, in some embodiments the thinness / low profile of each package is attributed to its leadless structure, with the bond pads and electrodes electrically connected via through-holes. In some embodiments, the structural integrity of the package can also be attributed to indentations along its sides, which do not enable as much plating material to accumulate at the sides and helps package cutting processes during manufacture. The indentations can also contribute to displays having more tightly and densely packed LED arrays.

Method of manufacturing a semiconductor device

A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes a process for filling holes in a dielectric film with tungsten. The process deposits tungsten in the holes, partially etches the deposited tungsten, and then deposits additional tungsten in the holes. Voids that may be left by the first tungsten deposition step are made accessible by openings formed in the etching step, and are then filled in by the second tungsten deposition step. Tungsten hexafluoride may be used as both a deposition source gas and an etching gas, providing a simple and inexpensive process that is suitable for high-volume production.

System for Multiresolution Analysis Assisted Reinforcement Learning Approach to Run-By-Run Control

A new multiresolution analysis (wavelet) assisted reinforcement learning (RL) based control strategy that can effectively deal with both multiscale disturbances in processes and the lack of process models. The application of wavelet aided RL based controller represents a paradigm shift in the control of large scale stochastic dynamic systems of which the control problem is a subset. The control strategy is termed a WRL-RbR controller. The WRL-RbR controller is tested on a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP) process of wafer fabrication for which process model is available. Results show that the RL controller outperforms EWMA based controllers for low autocorrelation. The new controller also performs quite well for strongly autocorrelated processes for which the EWMA controllers are known to fail. Convergence analysis of the new breed of WRL-RbR controller is presented. Further enhancement of the controller to deal with model free processes and for inputs coming from spatially distributed environments are also addressed.
