Abstract: The present invention is related to a novel positive electrode active material for lithium-ion battery. The positive electrode active material is expressed by the following formula: Li1.2NixMn0.8-x-yZnyO2, wherein x and y satisfy 0<x?0.8 and 0<y?0.1. In addition, the present invention provides a method of manufacturing the positive electrode active material. The present invention further provides a lithium-ion battery which uses said positive electrode active material.

Abstract: Provided is a recombinant microorganism including at least two genes for producing itaconic acid and its derived monomers, and the at least two genes are located on the same expression vector. The at least two genes include one encoding cis-aconitic acid decarboxylase and the other one encoding aconitase, and the genome of the recombinant microorganism includes a gene encoding the molecular chaperone protein GroELS. Also provided is a method for producing itaconic acid by using the microorganism.

Abstract: The surface-emitting laser with a multilayer thermally conductive mirror includes a light-emitting layer, an oxide layer, first and second mirror layers, and first and second contact layers. The light-emitting layer generates light with a wavelength of A. The oxide layer has an oxide aperture to limit the current flowing into the light-emitting layer. The first mirror layer includes a first high thermally conductive layer and a first low thermally conductive layer. The second mirror layer includes a second high thermally conductive layer and a second low thermally conductive layer. The first contact layer is disposed of on one side of the first mirror layer by the first low thermally conductive layer. The second contact layer is disposed on one side of the second mirror layer by the second high thermally conductive layer. The overall light emission and heat dissipation efficiency can be improved.

Abstract: A system for a semiconductor fabrication facility comprises a transporting tool configured to move a carrier, a first manufacturing tool configured to accept the carrier facing in a first direction, a second manufacturing tool configured to accept the carrier facing in the second direction, and an orientation tool. The carrier is moved to the orientation tool by the transporting tool prior to being moved to the first manufacturing tool or the second manufacturing tool by the transporting tool. The orientation tool rotates the carrier so that the carrier is accepted by the first manufacturing tool or the second manufacturing tool. The transporting tool, the first manufacturing tool, the second manufacturing tool and the orientation tool are physically separated from each other.

Abstract: A spin dispenser module and methods for using the same is disclosed. The spin dispenser module includes a cup having a basin with sidewalls and an exhaust, a rotatable platform situated inside the cup adapted for holding and rotating a substrate, a liquid dispenser disposed over the rotatable platform for dispensing a liquid coating material on top of the substrate, one or more ejector inlets disposed over the rotatable platform, the one or more ejectors connected to a negative pressure source, and a motor coupled to the rotatable platform to rate the rotatable platform at different rotational speeds. The one or more ejector inlets may be translatable and/or rotatable with optionally adjustable suction pressure. The ejector inlets operate after a liquid coating material is dispensed to avoid deposition of suspended organic compounds after a coating is formed.
