Abstract: The invention provides a method for manufacturing an array substrate utilizing a laser ablation process. A conductive layer can be selectively patterned by the laser ablation process without a photo mask due to different adhesions between the conductive layer and other materials. The patterned conductive layer thus formed adjoins an inorganic passivation layer to provide a substantially continuous surface.

Abstract: An apparatus accesses and processes reflection images detected from microarray biochips with sidewalls. The apparatus uses a movable system to carry an optical module and a microtiter plate to achieve relative movement in different directions, so that pattern images of all wells in the microtiter plate can be retrieved during a single scanning process. Scanned image data are further compared with pre-defined patterns by a computer program for analysis.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a recess-gate transistor is provided. A first liner and a dielectric layer are formed on a substrate. An opening is formed in the first liner and dielectric layer. A second liner is formed on the dielectric layer and in the opening. The second liner is dry-etched to form a sidewall spacer in the opening. The substrate is recess etched to form a gate trench. A gate oxide layer is formed on in the gate trench. The gate trench is filled with gate material layer and then etched back. A capping metal layer and a dielectric cap layer are formed on the gate material layer. The dielectric layer is stripped.

Abstract: An auto microfluidic hybridization chip platform is disclosed to provide a hybrid reaction test system with the features of fast reactions, automatic operations, and a convenient platform. The platform includes a flow control system with a platform base, a microfluidic hybridization chip, a microfluidic hybridization chip support, a test agent support of the microfluidic hybridization chip; and a signal detection system. Using a microfluidic pipeline to connect various parts does not only realize automation and a small volume, but also increases the reaction speed.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a star-shaped ball head polygonal wrench includes step 1 to step 3. Step 1 is to obtain a cylindrical body. Step 2 is to cut the near end portion of the cylindrical body to form a neck portion. Step 3 is to roll the head and neck portion of the cylindrical body to form a ball head.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a floating gate. A semiconductor substrate is provided, on which an insulating layer, conductive layer, and patterned hard mask layer are sequentially formed. The hard mask layer and the conductive layer are sequentially etched to form a trench. The exposed conductive layer is oxidized to form an oxide layer. The hard mask layer is removed. The conductive layer where not covered by the oxide layer is removed using the oxide layer as a mask.
