  • Publication number: 20240105444
    Abstract: Methods for reducing contact resistance include performing a selective titanium silicide (TiSi) deposition process on a middle of the line (MOL) contact structure that includes a cavity in a substrate of dielectric material. The contact structure also includes a silicon-based connection portion at a bottom of the cavity. The selective TiSi deposition process is selective to silicon-based material over dielectric material. The methods also include performing a selective deposition process of a metal material on the MOL contact structure. The selective deposition process is selective to TiSi material over dielectric material and forms a silicide capping layer on the silicon-based connection portion. The methods further include performing a seed layer deposition process of the metal material on the contact structure.

  • Patent number: 11830418
    Abstract: Provided is a pixel driving circuit. The pixel driving circuit includes a reset unit, a storage unit, an initialization unit, a drive unit, a threshold compensation unit, and a data write unit. A first terminal of the reset unit is configured to input the signal output by a reset power supply. A second terminal of the reset unit is connected to the control terminal of the drive unit and configured to provide the reset power supply for the control terminal of the drive unit during a power-on period. During the power-on period of the pixel driving circuit, the reset unit provides the reset power supply for the drive unit and performs reset control on the drive unit, so that the drive unit is prevented from being abnormally turned on during a power-on stage, thereby avoiding a screen flicker phenomenon.
