20100294922 | Automated calibration methodology for VUV metrology system - A calibration pad having multiple calibration sites is provided. A particular calibration site may be utilized until that particular site has been determined to have become unacceptable for further use, for example from contamination, in which case the calibration processes may then move to use a different calibration site(s) on the calibration pad(s). A variety of techniques may be utilized to provide the determination that a site is no longer acceptable for use. Movement may thus occur over time from site to site for use in a calibration process. A variety of criteria may be established to determine when to move to another site. Though the designation of a site as “bad” may be based upon measured reflectance data, other criteria may also be used. For example, the number of times a site has been exposed to light may be the criteria for designating a site as bad. Alternatively the cumulative exposure of a site may be the criteria. Further, the plurality of calibration sites that are provided on the single calibration pad may be pre-evaluated so as to initially screen out unacceptable calibration sites prior to use. The techniques provided may be utilized in calibration processes which utilize a single calibration sample or processes which require a plurality of calibration samples. | 11-25-2010 |

An example of a printhead circuit includes a substrate including a slot having a first, a second, and a third dimension in the substrate, circuitry on a first side and a second side of the slot, and a number of conductor traces routed across the slot along substantially a same geometrical plane as the circuitry on the first side and the second side of the slot. | 05-28-2015 |
20150210076 | FLUID EJECTION ASSEMBLY WITH CONTROLLED ADHESIVE BOND - In an embodiment, a fluid ejection device includes a die including a fluid feed slot that extends from a back side to a front side of the die, a firing chamber formed on the front side to receive fluid from the feed slot, a fluid distribution manifold adhered to the back side to provide fluid to the feed slot, and a corrosion-resistant layer coating the back side of the die so as not to extend into the feed slot. | 07-30-2015 |
20150314601 | FLUID EJECTION DEVICE WITH PARTICLE TOLERANT LAYER EXTENSION - In an embodiment, a fluid ejection device includes a thin-film layer formed over a substrate. A primer layer is formed over the thin-film layer, and a chamber layer is formed over the primer layer that defines a fluidic channel leading to a firing chamber. The fluid ejection device includes a slot that extends through the substrate and into the chamber layer through an ink feed hole in the thin-film layer. The fluid ejection device also includes a particle tolerant extension of the primer layer that protrudes into the slot. In some implementations, the particle tolerant primer layer extension extends across a full width of the slot. | 11-05-2015 |
20150352843 | PRINTHEAD DIE WITH MULTIPLE TERMINATION RINGS - A printhead die includes a SiO2 layer grown into a surface of a silicon substrate, and a dielectric layer deposited onto an interior surface area of a substrate. Multiple termination rings are formed around the interior surface area. Each ring is defined by an absence of the dielectric layer. A berm is located in between each termination ring. Each berm is defined by the presence of the dielectric layer. | 12-10-2015 |
20160001555 | FLUID DISPENSER - A fluid dispenser is disclosed herein. An example of such a fluid dispenser includes a member configured to define a plurality of orifices through which a fluid is ejected and a manifold including a plurality of fluid passageways each of which is configured to have a different angle relative to the member. This example of a fluid dispenser additionally includes a plurality of slots each of which is coupled to a different one of the fluid passageways of the manifold to conduct the fluid from the fluid passageways towards the orifices. Additional features and modifications of this fluid dispenser are disclosed herein, as are other examples of fluid dispensers. | 01-07-2016 |
20160031216 | FLUID EJECTION DEVICE - A method of forming a substrate for a fluid ejection device includes forming an opening in the substrate from a second side toward a first side, and further forming the opening in the substrate to the first side, including increasing the opening to the first side and increasing the opening at the second side, and forming the opening with substantially parallel sidewalls intermediate the first side and the second side and converging sidewalls to the first side. | 02-04-2016 |
20160082732 | FLUID EJECTION DEVICES WITH PARTICLE TOLERANT THIN-FILM EXTENSIONS - Fluid ejection devices with particle tolerant thin-film extensions are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a printer; a reservoir; and a printhead including: a firing chamber; a channel to receive fluid from the reservoir, the channel is coupled to the firing chamber, the channel having an opening; and a particle-tolerant film disposed adjacent the opening of the channel, the particle-tolerant film disposed between the channel and the reservoir, the particle-tolerant film to deter particles within the fluid from settling in an area adjacent the opening. | 03-24-2016 |
20160101620 | FLUID EJECTION DEVICE WITH INK FEEDHOLE BRIDGE - In an embodiment, a fluid ejection device includes a substrate with a fluid slot formed therein, a chamber layer formed on the substrate defining fluid chambers on both sides of the fluid slot, a thin-film layer between the substrate and chamber layer that defines an ink feedhole (IFH) between the fluid slot and the chamber layer, and a chamber layer extension that forms a bridge across the IFH between two chambers. | 04-14-2016 |

20160019571 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR IMPROVED ONLINE AUCTION - A method and system for an improved online auction is provided. The improved online auction fosters a win-win scenario and a sense of fairness between buyers and sellers, whereby the participants know the exact dollar cost to complete the auction process within a predictable timeframe. Auction participants know the entirety of their monetary investment in completing an auction—a registration fee. The present invention is adapted so that such participants can earn bidding units as a function of their skill in playing online games with other participants. Wherein, bidding units are used to buy the auctioned item, thereby fostering a non-dollar based competitive nature that attracts some users to auctions, yet maintaining a sense of level-field fairness so as to not repel other users. Moreover, the present invention is also adapted to limit each auction to a predetermined number of participants, each with a limited amount of bidding units, and operating under known time constraints, thereby providing a predictable timeframe for completing each auction process. | 01-21-2016 |
