Publication number: 20240087955Abstract: A method and apparatus for forming tungsten features in semiconductor devices is provided. The method includes exposing a top opening of a feature formed in a substrate to a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process to deposit a tungsten liner layer within the feature. The PVD process is performed in a first processing region of a first processing chamber and the tungsten liner layer forms an overhang portion, which partially obstructs the top opening of the feature. The substrate is transferred from the first processing region of the first processing chamber to a second processing region of a second processing chamber without breaking vacuum. The overhang portion is exposed to nitrogen-containing radicals in the second processing region to inhibit subsequent growth of tungsten along the overhang portion. The feature is exposed to a tungsten-containing precursor gas to form a tungsten fill layer over the tungsten liner layer within the feature.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 1, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Yi XU, Xianyuan ZHAO, Zhimin QI, Aixi ZHANG, Geraldine VASQUEZ, Dien-Yeh WU, Wei LEI, Xingyao GAO, Shirish PETHE, Wenting HOU, Chao DU, Tsung-Han YANG, Kyoung-Ho BU, Chen-Han LIN, Jallepally RAVI, Yu LEI, Rongjun WANG, Xianmin TANG

Patent number: 11929446Abstract: Provided is a preparation method of a detector material. The present disclosure epitaxially grows a buffer layer on a surface of a gallium arsenide substrate, deposits a silicon dioxide layer on the buffer layer, and etches the silicon dioxide layer on the buffer layer according to a strip pattern by photolithography and etching to form strip growth regions with continuous changes in width. Finally, a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) technology is used to epitaxially grow the detector material in the strip growth regions under set epitaxy growth conditions. Because of the same mobility of atoms arriving at the surface of the substrate, numbers of atoms migrating to the strip growth regions are different due to different widths of the strip growth regions, such that compositions of the material change with the widths of the strip growth regions or a layer thickness changes with the widths of the strip growth regions.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2022Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: CHANGCHUN UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYInventors: Qun Hao, Zhipeng Wei, Jilong Tang, Huimin Jia, Lei Liao, Kexue Li, Fengyuan Lin, Rui Chen, Shichen Su, Shuangpeng Wang

Publication number: 20240076231Abstract: A proposed fabrication technique for a polarization-absorbing wire grid polarizer avoids the need to etch through the multilayer stack of materials to form the grid structure. Initial reflective metal and dielectric buffer layers are patterned and etched in a conventional manner to create the desired grid topology. A small-angle coating process is then used to complete the fabrication process by first coating the top surface of the patterned dielectric with a polarization-absorbing metal. A second coating process is used to cover the created metal coating with a dielectric cladding material. Maintaining a small angle of incidence between the coating source and the wire grid structure ensures that top portions of the grid are suitably covered to create the desired multilayer wire configuration.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: II-VI Delaware, Inc.Inventors: Junjie Yao, Jianying Zhang, Xiaolian Zhou, Xu Jia, Lei Lin, Guanglong Yu

Patent number: 11499094Abstract: The present disclosure provides a ratiometric fluorescent probe, a preparation method thereof, and an application in detection of hydrogen peroxide. In the present disclosure, MoOx QDs (nanoenzymes) and Co/Zn-MOFs both have catalytic activity, and the large specific surface area and porous structure of Co/Zn-MOFs can provide more binding sites for the contact between nanoenzymes and substrates. Moreover, Co/Zn-MOFs have high catalytic activity similar to natural enzymes. When nanoenzymes with fluorescent properties encounter Co/Zn-MOFs with similar catalytic activity, they will collide with a spark of “synergy catalysis”, and the fusion of the two plays a role of synergy catalysis; in addition, the uniform cavity of Co/Zn-MOFs can provide “hosts” for nanoenzymes, and Co/Zn-MOFs provide “anchors” for MoOx QDs, avoiding the aggregation of MoOx QDs and enhancing the stability of the probe.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2022Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Assignee: Zhejiang UniversityInventors: Yong He, Yongqiang Shi, Xuping Feng, Lei Lin, Fangfang Qu, Mingzhu Tao
