  • Publication number: 20240070310
    Abstract: A method for protecting data based on a private set union (PSU) protocol includes: generating a Boolean vector for a first information set, based on whether or not each of a plurality of first groups that are groups of elements of the first information set stored in a first computing device is the same as each of a plurality of second groups that are groups of elements of a second information set stored in a second computing device, obtaining a random vector for the first information set as a result of shuffling performed by using the Boolean vector generated by the first computing device as an input and using order information and encryption information selected by the second computing device as inputs, and generating information on a union of the first information set and the second information set based on the random vector.

  • Patent number: 9941168
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device by epitaxial lift-off includes: forming a sacrificial layer containing an III-V compound on a first substrate, forming a device layer on the sacrificial layer, patterning the sacrificial layer and the device layer into a shape having an extending portion along a first direction determined based on a surface orientation of the III-V compound of the sacrificial layer, bonding the patterned device layer onto a second substrate, and etching the sacrificial layer by using an etching solution in a state where the device layer is bonded onto the second substrate, to remove the sacrificial layer and the first substrate. Using the method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, it is possible to improve a process yield and increase a process speed by using the difference in etch rates depending on crystal orientation, which is an inherent characteristic of an III-V compound, during an ELO process.

  • Publication number: 20070158815
    Abstract: A BGA package is disclosed including a base IC structure having a base substrate, with an opening running length-wise there through. A first semiconductor chip is mounted face-down on the base substrate so the bond pads thereof are accessible through the opening. The package also includes a secondary IC structure including a secondary substrate, having an opening running there through, and a second semiconductor chip. The second chip is mounted face-down on the secondary substrate so that the bond pads thereof are accessible through the opening in the secondary substrate. An encapsulant fills the opening in the secondary substrate and forms a substantially planar surface over the underside of the secondary substrate. The substantially planar surface is mounted to the first chip of the base IC structure through an adhesive. Wires connect a conductive portion of the secondary IC structure to a conductive portion of the base IC structure.
