Abstract: There is provided a learning method. The method includes performing preprocessing on light emission data in a chamber of a plasma processing apparatus, setting a constraint for generating a regression equation representing a relationship between an etching rate of the plasma processing apparatus and the light emission data, selecting a learning target wavelength from the light emission data subjected to the preprocessing, and receiving selection of other sensor data different from the light emission data. The method further includes generating a regression equation based on the set constraint while using, as learning data, the selected wavelength, the received other sensor data, and the etching rate, and outputting the generated regression equation.

Abstract: Methods for calculating a MetaKG signal are provided. The method including illuminating a region of interest in a sample with a near-infrared (NIR) light source and/or a visible light source. The region of interest includes a sample portion and background portion, each having a different set of optical characteristics. Images of the region of interest are acquired and processed to obtain metadata associated with the acquired images. MetaKG signals are calculated for the region of interest and for the background. The MetaKG signal for the background is used to adjust the MetaKG signal for the region of interest to provide a final adjusted MetaKG signal for the region of interest.

Abstract: A microscope device includes an opening (31) that includes a first slit and a second slit through which a plurality of pieces of light from an observation target resulting from a plurality of pieces of irradiation light emitted to the observation target and having different wavelengths pass, a dispersion element that wavelength-disperses the plurality of pieces of light passing through the opening (31), and an imaging element (32) that receives the plurality of pieces of light wavelength-dispersed by the dispersion element. The imaging element (32) performs light reception so that, as for the plurality of pieces of light wavelength-dispersed, zeroth-order light of light passing through the second slit and first-order light of light passing through the first slit do not overlap with each other.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an integrated sensor module for detection of chemical substances. The sensor module includes a UV radiation source operable to emit UV radiation onto a sample. The sensor module also includes a sensor including dedicated channels disposed so as receive UV radiation reflected by the sample. Each of the channels is selectively sensitive to a different respective portion of the UV spectrum; collectively, the channels cover at least part of the UV spectrum sufficient for reconstruction of a spectral curve of the sample. An electronic control unit can be used to identify a composition of the sample based on signals from the channels.

Abstract: A spectroscopic metrology system includes a spectroscopic metrology tool and a controller. The controller generates a model of a multilayer grating including two or more layers, the model including geometric parameters indicative of a geometry of a test layer of the multilayer grating and dispersion parameters indicative of a dispersion of the test layer. The controller further receives a spectroscopic signal of a fabricated multilayer grating corresponding to the modeled multilayer grating from the spectroscopic metrology tool. The controller further determines values of the one or more parameters of the modeled multilayer grating providing a simulated spectroscopic signal corresponding to the measured spectroscopic signal within a selected tolerance. The controller further predicts a bandgap of the test layer of the fabricated multilayer grating based on the determined values of the one or more parameters of the test layer of the fabricated structure.

Abstract: A system may have a rechargeable hearing instrument with a power source, an ultraviolet (UV) sensor configured to convert received UV light into electrical power and charging circuitry coupled to the UV sensor and to the power source. The charging circuitry may use the electrical power to charge the power source. A charger may have a charging cavity configured to receive the rechargeable hearing instrument. A power source within the charger powers a UV light source located within the charger configured to provide UV light to the UV sensor of the rechargeable hearing instrument when the rechargeable hearing instrument is placed within the charging cavity.
