  • Patent number: 11832437
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides to a semiconductor memory device. The semiconductor memory device includes a substrate having a cell area and a peripheral area; and a first bit line structure disposed on and protruding from a surface of the cell area. The first bit line structure is sandwiched by a pair of air gaps and a barrier layer is conformally overlaying the air gaps adjacent to the sidewalls of the first bit line structure and the cell area. The first bit line structure has a sidewall and an ascending top portion, and a landing pad is disposed over the ascending top portion and the sidewalls of the first bit line structure. The landing pad has an inclined surface corresponding to the ascending top portion of the first bit line structure.

    Abstract: This invention relates to a method for molding a bicycle tube and the method comprises the following steps: first, providing a tube and then controlling thickness of the tube by a drawing and extruding process for forming a molding portion. Second, plasticize other portions of the tube into particular diameters and shapes by plasticizing processes. Third, hydroform the molding portion of the tube by a mold and a hydroforming device for forming particular three-dimensional shapes. By applying to the above-mentioned method, the tube could be molded into a three-dimensional, unique and delicate shape.
