A substrate processing apparatus that can accurately control the temperature of a focus ring without causing abnormal electric discharge and the back-flow of radio frequency electrical power during the application of radio frequency electrical power. A wafer is mounted on a mounting stage disposed in a housing chamber. An annular focus ring is mounted on the mounting stage in such a manner as to surround the peripheral portion of the mounted wafer. The pressure in the housing chamber is reduced, radio frequency electrical power is applied to the mounting stage, and the focus ring generates heat by itself.

A common information model (CIM) enables management application programs to receive uniformly rendered results regardless of the source of the information. A CIM object manager isolates the applications from internal components which retrieve the information from various sources and through various other components, and provides refinements to that model that improve the exchange of information. In addition to providing uniform rendering of management information to a client applications, the CIM object manager dynamically adapts to complement the capabilities of the information providers, whereby the information providers may do so in a highly flexible manner. The CIMOM also decomposes a client query to determine the appropriate source or sources of information necessary to resolve that query, and further handles client queries having inherited object classes to render appropriate results in a uniform manner.

A method and system for calculating hydraulics and hydrology of watersheds automatically with flexibility. It combines the concepts of hydraulics and hydrology with the flexibility of spreadsheets and the automation of the accompanied standalone computer modules created in this new system. Each standalone module functions as a control center to communicate with other application programs like EXCEL and process the input data, to perform the calculation internally and place results in a popularly adopted format like spreadsheet. One control center relays information to others through linking the input and output data sources. A seamless stream of calculation can be formed flexibly by repeating the above linking procedure. This optimized calculation stream and the new computer functions created in them have eliminated many tedious and labor-intensive tasks. The modules are self-contained, which means easy maintenance and error proof compared with the scripts if any embedded in spreadsheets.

Coloring of continuous textiles includes pad dying the textiles many times in at least one trough; subsequently green painting the textiles in an oxidation line; then washing and drying the textiles; and expelling oxygen from the textiles immediately before each pad dying, wherein a reintroduction of oxygen in the textiles is prevented before each green painting.

A method and composition for controlling an exothermic reaction between a powerful oxidizing agent such as the permanganate salts, and reducing agents such as polyhydroxy organic compounds, comprises non-charged, relatively hydrophobic pigments which can be slurried at relatively high solids. The pigment may be calcium carbonate, diatomaceous earth (diatomite), talc, or blends thereof. The pigments are not flocculated in permanganate slurries and can be dispersed at high solids contents. The dispersions can be spray dried or pelletized with controllable moisture contents from about 0.1 to 10%. The resulting composition yields effective control of the exothermic reaction with more uniform and reproducible results.

Method and device for rotating a wafer which is arranged floating in a reactor. The wafer is treated in a reactor of this nature, and it is important for this treatment to be carried out as uniformly as possible.
