Abstract: A cholesteric liquid crystal display device and a driving method for improving non-uniform image quality of the cholesteric liquid crystal display device. The cholesteric liquid crystal display device includes a cholesteric liquid crystal display panel and a liquid crystal drive unit. The cholesteric liquid crystal display panel is composed of multiple row circuit structures and multiple column circuit structures. The liquid crystal driving unit sequentially outputs column driving voltages to a plurality of column circuit structures in a scanning manner. After scanning the multiple column circuit structures, the liquid crystal driving unit applies an unselected voltage to the multiple column circuit structures together with more than 18 times the scanning unit time course, so as to make the brightness of the overall picture more uniform.

Abstract: Embodiments of present invention provide a method of forming a MRAM structure. The method includes forming at least one magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) stack on top of a supporting structure; forming a conformal liner surrounding a sidewall of the MTJ stack; forming a first dielectric layer surrounding the conformal liner; selectively forming a metal oxide layer on top of the conformal liner and the first dielectric layer, the metal oxide layer having at least a first opening that exposes a top surface of the MTJ stack; and forming a top contact contacting the top surface of the MTJ stack through the first opening in the metal oxide layer. An MRAM structure formed thereby is also provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a driving method of a cholesteric liquid crystal display. It includes the steps in the following: driving each scan line by a dynamic driving scheme (DDS) including an Evolution phase; refreshing a frame of the cholesteric liquid crystal display by a full refresh mode, each scan line driven N times during the Evolution phase in the full refresh mode; and refreshing a part of the frame by a partial-refresh mode, each scan line driven M times in the Evolution phase in the partial-refresh mode, wherein M is greater than N.

Abstract: A semiconductor structure is presented including a first memory array and a second memory array directly connected to the first memory array by nanosheet stacks and backside contacts. The first and second memory arrays collectively define a double-sided memory array on a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) wafer. The nanosheet stacks separate the first memory array from the second memory array so that two different types of memory devices are integrated together into a single CMOS chip.
