  • Publication number: 20240153979
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an image sensor structure includes forming an isolation structure in a substrate to divide the substrate into a first region and a second region, forming a first light sensing region in the first region and a second light sensing region in the second region, forming a first gate structure over the first light sensing region and a second gate structure over the second light sensing region, forming gate spacers on sidewalls of the first and second gate structures, and depositing a blocking layer on sidewalls of the gate spacers. The blocking layer has an opening positioned between the first and second gate structures. A source/drain structure is formed directly under the opening in the blocking layer. The method also includes forming an interlayer dielectric layer over the first and second gate structures and the blocking layer.

  • Patent number: 8106323
    Abstract: A potential switching apparatus for a power adapter which transforms input power to output power delivered through a power output cord. The potential switch apparatus switches the potential of the output power. It includes a first body and a second body located on the power output cord. The first body has a first contact and a second contact. The second body has a switch element connectable to the first contact to deliver the output power at a first potential and connectable to the second contact to deliver the output power at a second potential. Thus the potential of the output power can be switched. The present invention improves the conventional potential switch device on the power adapter that is too bulky in size.

  • Publication number: 20090168400
    Abstract: In a light emitting frame and a heat dissipating fan using the light emitting frame, a light emitting element can be installed freely on the heat dissipating fan by a detachable light emitting frame composed of a separate main frame body, and the main frame body has a limit position portion passed through by a same fixing element, such that when the heat dissipating fan is installed to an electronic device, the light emitting frame is fixed. The invention overcomes the shortcomings of a prior art design of integrating the light emitting element with the heat dissipating element. In addition to lowering the manufacturing cost, the invention provides a number of selections for the material of the light emitting element and the light projecting angle.
