  • Patent number: 9705003
    Abstract: The threshold voltage is shifted in a negative or positive direction in some cases by an unspecified factor in a manufacturing process of the thin film transistor. If the amount of shift from 0 V is large, driving voltage is increased, which results in an increase in power consumption of a semiconductor device. Thus, a resin layer having good flatness is formed as a first protective insulating film covering the oxide semiconductor layer, and then a second protective insulating film is formed by a sputtering method or a plasma CVD method under a low power condition over the resin layer. Further, in order to adjust the threshold voltage to a desired value, gate electrodes are provided over and below an oxide semiconductor layer.

  • Patent number: 9594133
    Abstract: In multi-echo multi-contrast imaging, the image quality is improved by suppressing an increase in imaging time. In order to do so, the arrangement order of echo signals that form an echo train and k space filled with each echo signal are determined such that the continuity of the echo arrangement is maintained while sharing an echo signal between contrasts in multi-echo multi-contrast imaging. Echo trains that perform echo sharing are arranged in non-oscillatory centric view ordering (NOCO). In addition, the starting point of echo sharing of one echo train is connected to the same position of another echo train. When some discontinuous regions are present, the discontinuous regions may be corrected using continuous data of regions symmetrical thereto on the k space.
