Publication number: 20240084455Abstract: Some implementations described herein include systems and techniques for fabricating a wafer-on-wafer product using a filled lateral gap between beveled regions of wafers included in a stacked-wafer assembly and along a perimeter region of the stacked-wafer assembly. The systems and techniques include a deposition tool having an electrode with a protrusion that enhances an electromagnetic field along the perimeter region of the stacked-wafer assembly during a deposition operation performed by the deposition tool. Relative to an electromagnetic field generated by a deposition tool not including the electrode with the protrusion, the enhanced electromagnetic field improves the deposition operation so that a supporting fill material may be sufficiently deposited.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 8, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Che Wei YANG, Chih Cheng SHIH, Kuo Liang LU, Yu JIANG, Sheng-Chan LI, Kuo-Ming WU, Sheng-Chau CHEN, Chung-Yi YU, Cheng-Yuan TSAI

Patent number: 7134839Abstract: A radial-flow heat-dissipating fan includes a casing and a cover mounted to a side of the casing. The casing includes a compartment and a side air outlet, and the cover includes an air inlet. A primary fan wheel is rotatably mounted in the compartment and the primary fan wheel includes a hub and a plurality of radial-flow blades surrounding the hub. An auxiliary fan wheel is mounted in the air inlet of the cover and includes a plurality of axial-flow blades. An airflow transition area is defined between a circumference of the hub of the primary fan wheel, the radial-flow blades, and the axial-flow blades.
