  • MOS-Based Power Semiconductor Device Having Increased Current Carrying Area and Method of Fabricating Same
    Publication number: 20200105878
    Abstract: A semiconductor device fabrication method includes forming first and second spaced apart base regions and source regions in a substrate with a portion of a drift region therebetween. The method further includes forming at least a first trench extending laterally through the base region, the drift region and the source region, the first trench extending vertically partially through the source region. The method also includes forming a first oxide layer over the trenched upper surface, and forming a polysilicon layer over the first oxide layer. The polysilicon layer is patterned to form the gate conductor, and a drain contact is formed on a bottom surface of the semiconductor substrate.

  • SECURING A DATA CONNECTION FOR COMMUNICATING BETWEEN TWO END-POINTS
    Publication number: 20200099678
    Abstract: Methods and systems for securing a data connection for communicating between two end-points are described herein. One of the end-points may be a server and the other of the end-points may be a client that wants to communicate with the server. The data connection may be secured based on a previously-established secure connection and/or a self-signed or self-issued certificate. In some variations, by using the previously-established secure connection and/or a self-signed or self-issued certificate, the secure communication between the server and the client may be conducted without using a third-party authentication service and without requiring a third-party CA to issue a certificate for the server.

  • THERMAL MATERIALS FOR INCREASING A RATE OF HEAT PIPE COOLING
    Publication number: 20200068746
    Abstract: Techniques of controlling heat from a heat source in an electronic device using a heat pipe, improved techniques include placing a thermal conductor such as graphite sheet in thermal contact with a heat pipe and an external surface such as a surface of a battery in an electronic device. In some implementations, the graphite sheet covers an area encompassing an end of the heat pipe. In some implementations, the graphite sheet is attached to the heat pipe using an adhesive.

  • NOTEBOOK COMPUTER D-CASE VAPOR CHAMBER
    Publication number: 20200057477
    Abstract: Techniques of managing heat within an electronic device include providing a vapor chamber as an external surface of an electronic device. For example, when the electronic device includes a thin notebook computer (e.g., an “ultrabook”), the vapor chamber may be, in its entirety or at least a part of, the d-case (i.e., the bottom cover or exterior surface of the laptop, opposite the keyboard and/or trackpad when the notebook computer is open). Such a vapor chamber may be very thin (as thin as 0.3 mm), while being about 50% more stiff and 50× more thermally conductive as aluminum, which may be used as the d-case in conventional notebook computers.
