Abstract: An opening is formed through a dielectric material layer to physically expose a top surface of a conductive material portion in, or over, a substrate. A metallic nitride liner is formed on a sidewall of the opening and on the top surface of the conductive material portion. A metallic adhesion layer including an alloy of copper and at least one transition metal that is not copper is formed on an inner sidewall of the metallic nitride liner. A copper fill material portion may be formed on an inner sidewall of the metallic adhesion layer. The metallic adhesion layer is thermally stable, and remains free of holes during subsequent thermal processes, which may include reflow of the copper fill material portion. An additional copper fill material portion may be optionally deposited after a reflow process.

Abstract: Semiconductor devices and methods of forming the same are provided. A method according to the present disclosure includes providing a workpiece including a frontside and a backside. The workpiece includes a substrate, a first plurality of channel members over a first portion of the substrate, a second plurality of channel members over a second portion of the substrate, an isolation feature sandwiched between the first and second portions of the substrate. The method also includes forming a joint gate structure to wrap around each of the first and second pluralities of channel members, forming a pilot opening in the isolation feature, extending the pilot opening through the join gate structure to form a gate cut opening that separates the joint gate structure into a first gate structure and a second gate structure, and depositing a dielectric material into the gate cut opening to form a gate cut feature.

Abstract: An environment managing and monitoring system and a method using same are provided. The environment managing and monitoring system is configured to assist monitors to obtain real-time information of the monitoring field and control device in the monitoring field. The environmental managing and monitoring system includes at least one sub-system and a host system. The host system is configured to output a region of interest condition and a monitoring condition to the sub-system, wherein the sub-system is configured to generate monitoring results according to the monitoring conditions, and selects an image range from the captured wide-angle dynamic real-time images according to the region of interest condition.

Abstract: A scraper includes a cover, a first clamping member, a second clamping member, and a locking device. The cover has a connection portion and an insertion protrusion. The first clamping member has a first through groove, and the second clamping member has a second through groove. The locking device has a sliding portion slidably arranged in the first through groove and the second through groove. The connection portion of the cover is detachably connected to the side of the first clamping member opposite to the second clamping member, and the insertion protrusion inserts through the first through groove and the second through groove and is detachably coupled with the second clamping member.

Abstract: An anti-slip fastener driver includes a shank and a driving portion formed on an end of the shank and defining a longitudinal axis. The driving portion includes an outer periphery surrounding the longitudinal axis and having a first peripheral face. An end of the driving portion opposite to the shank includes a first bevel face connected to the first peripheral face. The first bevel face includes a first side and a first corner opposite to the first side. The end of the driving portion opposite to the shank defines a reference plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The first side is located on the reference plane. The first corner is located between the reference plane and the shank.

Abstract: A prying tool includes a main body, a wheel frame and a wheel assembly. The main body is provided with a prying portion, a connecting portion, and a supporting portion curvedly formed between the prying portion and the connecting portion. The wheel frame is detachably connected to the connecting portion. The wheel assembly includes a first wheel rotatably mounted to the wheel frame. Therefore, the prying tool can carry an object by the wheel assembly after prying the object.

Abstract: An tool identification and organization device includes a tool rack and a first tool. The tool rack is provided with a insertion portion and a front panel space from the insertion portion. The front panel is provided with a first identification hole penetrating therethrough. The first tool is configured to insert into the insertion portion in a height direction. The first tool is provided with a first color marking arranged on an outer periphery thereof and configured to align with the first identification hole to cause the first color marking being visible passing through the front panel via the first identification hole.

Abstract: An anti-slip fastener driver includes a body, a driving portion and a twisting portion arranged between the body and the driving portion. The driving portion has a plurality of driving recesses and a plurality of sharp corners. A cross sectional area of one end of the twisting portion adjacent to the driving portion is less than that of the other end of the twisting portion adjacent to the body. The twisting portion has a plurality of twisting surfaces formed around an outer periphery thereof in the radial direction of the rotating axis, Each twisting surface has a short side and a long side. A projection line of the short side is not parallel to that of the long side on the reference plane.

Abstract: A foldable tool includes a first rod member, a second rod member and a pivoting device. The first rod member has a first length. The second rod member has a second length. The pivoting device is arranged between the first rod member and the second rod member. The first rod member and the second rod member are configured to be selectively pivotable to each other via the first pivoting device. A ratio of the first length to the second length is in a range between 1.1 and 6.
