  • Publication number: 20240170299
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes: providing a wafer-bonding stack structure having a sidewall layer and an exposed first component layer; forming a photoresist layer on the first component layer; performing an edge trimming process to at least remove the sidewall layer; and removing the photoresist layer. In this way, contaminant particles generated from the blade during the edge trimming process may fall on the photoresist layer but not fall on the first component layer, so as to protect the first component layer from being contaminated.

  • Patent number: 9397256
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an LED structure having a progressive work function layer, which adopts a conversion layer with a gradually varying work function as the medium for forming an Ohmic contact between the p-type GaN and the metal reflection layer. The work function of the conversion layer is not a single value. Instead, different quantities of dopants are doped at different depths of the conversion layer. Thereby, the conversion layer can match excellently the connected p-type GaN and the metal reflection layer. By taking advantage of the high light transmissivity of the material of the conversion layer, the possibility that light is absorbed by the Ohmic contact layer is reduced. The conversion according to the present invention can also block diffusion of the metal in the metal reflection to the p-type GaN. Accordingly, it can be used as both an Ohmic contact layer and a barrier layer.

  • Publication number: 20130015734
    Abstract: A magnetic coupler comprises a magnet rotor that includes a permanent magnet; a conductor rotor that includes a non-ferrous electroconductive plate; and a fan mounted on one of the magnet rotor and the conductor rotor, wherein the fan is designed to blow air into the magnetic coupler during operation. The permanent magnet of the magnet rotor is spaced by an air gap from the electroconductive plate of the conductor rotor.

  • Publication number: 20110228366
    Abstract: An optical system for holographic sights includes a laser diode, two mirrors, a holographic optical element (HOE) and a hologram. The two mirrors direct the diverging laser beam through a folded path to reach certain cross sectional area. The HOE filters, collimates and deflects the beam. Under the illumination of a collimated beam, the hologram projects a virtual reticle image at target plane. The HOE and the hologram are mounted in parallel and have the same period to achieve diffraction match so as to eliminate the image shift.
