A probe body () in a optical probe () including a measurement tube () having a plurality of probe vents () adapted to allow process fluid to flow there through; two or more purge rings, each including a process window, a purge gas inlet, and a plurality of purge gas outlet openings adapted to direct purge gas toward or adjacent to the process window; and a measurement region defined by a portion of the measurement tube and two or more of the purge rings.

High-temperature optical probe

A polishing layer analyzer is provided, wherein the analyzer is configured to detect macro inhomogeneities is polymeric sheets and to classify the polymeric sheets as either acceptable or suspect.

Polishing layer analyzer and method

A method of manufacturing chemical mechanical polishing pads is provided, wherein an automated inspection system is configured to detect macro inhomogeneities is skived sheets and to classify the skived sheets as either acceptable or suspect; wherein the acceptable skived sheets are further processed to form polishing layers of chemical mechanical polishing pads.

Method of manufacturing chemical mechanical polishing pads

A chemical mechanical polishing pad, polishing layer analyzer is provided, wherein the analyzer is configured to detect macro inhomogeneities is polymeric sheets and to classify the polymeric sheets as either acceptable or suspect.

Apparatus for spectroscopic analysis which includes a tunable diode laser spectrometer having a digital output signal and a digital computer for receiving the digital output signal from the spectrometer, the digital computer programmed to process the digital output signal using a multivariate regression algorithm. In addition, a spectroscopic method of analysis using such apparatus. Finally, a method for controlling an ethylene cracker hydrogenator.

Spectroscopic analysis and control

The invention pertains to a method for controlling the Limiting Oxygen Value (LOV) of a reactor for producing ethylene oxide using a tunable diode laser. The sample to be tested is extracted. A method for controlling oxygen analyzer safety shutdown for a reactor for producing ethylene oxide using a tunable diode laser is also described.

Control and optimization of process for making ethylene oxide

A medical breath component analyzer which maintains a data-base profile of a patient over time. The apparatus may be used chronically by a patient so that a baseline status for that patient may be determined. Acute variations from the baseline are identified as clinically significant. The acquired data can be reported to the patient using the device at home and transmitted electronically to a physician or health care provider. The method and apparatus helps a patient modify health related behaviors, particularly weight loss for diabetic patients. A breath component and information on the psychological or emotional state of the patient are correlated, and information is provided to the patient based on the correlation between the breath component and the patient's emotional state. Other physiologic parameter may also be measured, such as a blood component, temperature, cardiovascular condition or pulse rate, a urine component, a physical activity sensor, weight, or body fat composition sensor. The parameters and the information on the patient's emotional state may be correlated through a computer system. Correlation may comprise selecting a response likely to re-enforce positive behavioral change in the patient. Preferably, remote sources of information may also be accessed, as, for example, through a communications connection or the Internet. Information may be provided directly from the apparatus, or by contact through a physician, health-care provider or support group.
