Abstract: An integrated circuit device includes a back side interconnection structure extending in a first horizontal direction. An active substrate includes a fin-type active area extending in the first horizontal direction on the back side interconnection structure. A metal silicide film is between the back side interconnection structure and the active substrate. A plurality of gate structures extends in a second horizontal direction perpendicular to the first horizontal direction on the active substrate. A first source/drain area and a second source/drain area are spaced apart from each other in the first horizontal direction with the plurality of gate structures therebetween on the active substrate. The first source/drain area directly contacts the active substrate. The second source/drain area is spaced apart from the active substrate and insulated from the active substrate.

Abstract: A coating is applied on an optical fiber drawn from a melted tip of an optical-fiber preform. A glass spin is applied to a coated optical fiber by gripping the coated optical fiber with at least a pair of spinning applying rollers arranged in different levels with parallel rotation axes, rotating the spinning applying rollers so that the coated optical fiber is guided in a predetermined direction, and alternately shifting the spinning applying rollers in opposite directions along the rotation axes. The glass spin is applied to the coated optical fiber in a state in which each of the rotation axes is tilted at a predetermined angle from a plane perpendicular to the first direction.

Abstract: Optical fiber manufacturing methods, which manufacture optical fibers with uniform characteristics using a simple device construction, are provided. The optical fiber manufacturing methods comprise, drawing a glass fiber from a glass preform by heating and melting one end of the glass preform and coating at least one layer of resin around the circumference of the drawn glass fiber. The method includes the steps of decreasing the viscosity of the resin from an initial viscosity during a start-up process time to a steady viscosity as optical fiber draw speed increases, wherein the steady viscosity is a predetermined viscosity; and increasing the draw speed during the start-up process time to a faster steady speed.

Abstract: A guide hole guides a primary-coated optical fiber to a tubular inlet hole. An inner diameter of the guide hole is larger than that of the tubular inlet hole. An inner diameter of the tubular inlet hole is in a range from 1.5 times to 2.0 times that of the primary-coated optical fiber. A length of the tubular inlet hole is in a range from 1.0 mm to 2.0 mm. A depth of the guide hole is in a range from 2.0 mm 9.0 mm. A relation B?A is satisfied, with B equal to or larger than 7.0 mm, where A is an inner diameter of a leading edge of the guide hole continued to a trailing edge of the tubular inlet hole, and B is an inner diameter of a trailing edge of the guide hole.
