Abstract: A modified layer 5 and an altered layer 8 are formed outside a dicing point of a dicing area 3. Thus without forming another interface between different physical properties on the dicing point, it is possible to prevent chipping from progressing along a crystal orientation from an interface between a semiconductor element 2 and a semiconductor substrate 1 and from a surface of the semiconductor element during dicing, thereby suppressing the development of chipping to the semiconductor element.
Abstract: By increasing the width of a lead terminal 2 connected to a die pad 1 in the vicinity of the die pad 1 and forming a slit 9 and a projecting plate in the lead terminal in the region where resin 5 is formed, it is possible to ensure the holding strength of the lead terminal by the resin 5, as well as ensuring the strength of the lead terminal during the manufacturing process and achieving a reduction in thickness.
Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor device that can suppresses poor connection caused by the variation of the heights of bumps during reflow heating, can be applied to a narrow array pitch, and can freely adjust the heights of the bumps.
Abstract: A hollow wood-type golf club head having an increased weight budget and improved mass characteristics at minimum structural mass is disclosed. The club head has a striking face portion, a sole portion, a skirt portion, and a crown portion having a total surface area. A hosel portion joins the club head for connecting a shaft to the club head. The crown portion has a major crown portion and a minor crown portion, the major portion having greater surface area than the minor portion, and the major portion being displaced vertically lower relative to the minor crown portion. The major crown portion may have a generally concave curvature and the minor crown portion may have a generally convex curvature such that the major crown portion is in effect inverted with respect to the minor crown portion. The major crown portion may be upwardly inclined from the heel to the toe of the head. The head may exhibit a parabolic top view silhouette.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a novel stabilizer for preparing a polymer polyol, which is used to prepare polyurethane foam having improved physical properties. The stabilizer is prepared by allowing maleic anhydride to react with a polyether polyol, having an OH functionality of 3-8 and a molecular weight of 3,000-15,000, and then adding ethylene oxide to the reaction solution. Because the molecular weight and functionality of the stabilizer are increased through aging and dimerization, the stabilizer has a high molecular weight of 5,000-30,000, a high OH functionality of 6-10 and a viscosity of 3,000-15,000 cps/25° C. A polymer polyol derived from the stabilizer has low viscosity compared to those of prior products and contributes to the improvement in the physical properties of the resulting polyurethane foam.

Abstract: An intelligent electronic subrogation network (“ESN”) automates intra-organization workflow, inter-organization workflow and collaboration for insurance subrogation. This ESN is facilitated by a novel system architecture and process that includes an inter-organizational workflow management system, an inter-organizational transaction processing system, and a unique mechanism for optimizing and enriching web-based user interaction within any such system.
Abstract: In an organic electroluminescence display device (30) comprising an organic EL element (26) having a structure wherein an organic luminescent medium (24) is sandwiched between a top electrode (20) and a bottom electrode (22), and a driving circuit (14) for driving the organic EL element (26), the organic luminescent medium (24) comprises a host compound and a triplet-related luminous compound and the driving circuit (14) applies a electric pulse voltage or pulse current having a frequency of 30 Hz or more and a duty ratio of 1/5 or less. In this way, it is possible to provide an organic EL display device which consumes a low electric power and has a long luminous life span, and a method for driving the same.
Abstract: When forming a resin material in a through hole, an electrode pad is formed in the bottom portion of the through hole, an insulating material is formed about the periphery of the through hole and a conductive material is formed in the central portion by an inkjet method, inkjet-ejected resins being ejected in such a manner that concavo-convex indentations and projections are formed in the surface thereof, whereby the adhesiveness between the insulating material and the conductive material and the adhesiveness between the insulating material and the inner walls of the through hole can be improved. Therefore, it is possible to suppress mechanical defects such as detachment of conductive material at the interfaces between the inner surface of the through hole and the resin or conductor layer, or electrical defects such as insulation defects, conduction defects, or the like.

Abstract: An embedded additional user interface 10 includes a web page display screen 20 and an embedded processor 30, and is incorporated into a gaming machine 40 that in turn includes a gaming screen 50 and a gaming processor 60. The embedded processor 30 employs an internal operating system and communicates with the gaming processor 60. The embedded processor reads incoming data, translates the data into a web authoring language, and maps the data to the web page display screen. The display screen 20 presents web page information to a user via the display screen, thereby increasing user excitement by providing a richer gaming experience. This provides a dramatic improvement over traditional system components 70 (input/output peripherals) that have been used in the past to access service and system information, such as a 2-line, 20-character VF display and a 12-digit keypad.
Abstract: A method/apparatus closes and finishes an open end of a product that can be fused together with heat. The apparatus includes a bending stage, a fusing stage, and a pressing/cooling stage, which all can be integrally formed, with the bending stage positioned upstream of the fusing stage, and the pressing/cooling stage positioned downstream of the fusing stage. The apparatus can further include a trimming stage positioned upstream of the bending stage for preparing the ends of a panel. The product has a pair of spaced layers with edges that form an open end. Either one or both of the layers can be heated and rolled toward the other layer while being heated so that they contact and fuse together. The layers can overlap and fuse at their contact surfaces, or the edges can abut to form a butt joint, or the edges can overlap slightly.
