| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 5367253 | Clamped carrier for testing of semiconductor dies Disclosed is a technique for testing a singularized semiconductor die prior to packaging the die, thereby allowing for the packaging or other use of only known good die. The invention employs a carrier tray which preferably supports several die carriers w... | 11/22/1994 |
| 5271799 | Anisotropic etch method A method to anisotropically etch an oxide/metalsilicide/polysilicon sandwich structure on a silicon wafer substrate in situ, using a single parallel plate plasma reactor chamber and a single inert cathode, with a variable gap between cathode and anode. Th... | 12/21/1993 |
| 5061374 | Reverse osmosis as final filter in ultrapure deionized water system An improved deionized water treatment system and method that consists of using a first and second water treatment train wherein the second train improves water quality by reducing particulate and total organic carbon by means of a reverse osmosis membrane... | 10/29/1991 |
| 5020283 | Polishing pad with uniform abrasion A polishing pad for semiconductor wafers, having a face shaped by a series of voids. The voids are substantially the same size, but the frequency of the voids increases with increasing radial distance to provide a constant, or nearly constant, surface con... | 06/04/1991 |
