Publication number: 20220215233Abstract: Materials-by-design is a new paradigm to develop novel high-performance materials. However, finding materials with superior properties is often computationally or experimentally intractable because of the astronomical number of combinations in design spaces. The disclosure is a novel AI-based approach, implemented in a game-theory based generative adversarial neural network (GAN), to bridge the gap between the physical performance and design space. A end-to-end deep learning model predicts physical fields like stress or strain directly from the material geometry and microstructure. The model reaches an astonishing accuracy not only for predicted field data but also for secondary predictions, such as average residual stress at R2˜0.96). Furthermore, the proposed approach offers extensibility by predicting complex materials behavior regardless of shapes, boundary conditions and geometrical hierarchy.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2021Publication date: July 7, 2022Inventors: Markus J. Buehler, Chi Hua Yu, Zhenze Yang

Patent number: 8776433Abstract: A planting container is suitable for forming planting columns by using ones with the same structure three-dimensionally stacked. The planting columns are arranged around a center line parallel to the gravity direction to set up a planting tower. The planting container includes a bottom wall and a side wall. The side wall extends from the peripheral of the bottom wall and both walls define a containing space. The side wall has a planting opening communicating with the containing space. The side wall has a top end and a bottom end. When two containers with the same structure are three-dimensionally stacked by each other, the bottom end of the upper container engages with the top end of the lower container. The side wall laterally tilts towards the center line relatively to the bottom wall, so that the planting column tilts towards the adjacent column and tilts towards the center line.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2012Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Tien-Fu Huang, Chi-Hua Yu, Chen-Dao Shiao, Pei-Ying Chang

Patent number: 6482702Abstract: A method of forming and recognizing an identification mark for read-only memory. First, a first patterned resist layer is formed on a semiconductor substrate having an insulating region and a device region thereon by a code mask having code and identification mark patterns, and the identification mark pattern is over the insulating region. Next, ion implantation is performed to code in the device region. Thereafter, a second patterned resist layer is formed on the first patterned resist layer by a common mask to expose the entire identification mark pattern of the first patterned resist layer only. The identification mark pattern is then transferred to the insulating region by dry etching. Finally, the substrate having a clear identification mark is placed in an optical microscope for identification by an operator.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2002Date of Patent: November 19, 2002Assignee: Vanguard International Semiconductor CorporationInventors: Chi-Hua Yu, Hsiao-Ying Yang

Patent number: 5882962Abstract: A method of forming a MOS transistor having a p.sup.+ -polysilicon gate includes doping an amorphous silicon layer with phosphorus, thereby forming a n.sup.- amorphous silicon layer atop of a gate oxide. The n.sup.- amorphous silicon layer is then doped with boron to convert the n.sup.- amorphous silicon layer into a p.sup.+ -amorphous silicon layer. The p.sup.+ -amorphous silicon layer is then thermally treated to convert the p.sup.+ -amorphous silicon layer into a p.sup.+ -polysilicon layer. The p.sup.+ -polysilicon layer is then patterned into a gate for a MOS transistor. The phosphorus ions in the p.sup.+ -polysilicon help to fix the boron ions in the polysilicon gate, thereby reducing the diffusion of the boron ions and penetration of boron into the gate oxide.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 1996Date of Patent: March 16, 1999Assignee: Vanguard International Semiconductor CorporationInventors: Kuo-Shu Tseng, Chi-Hua Yu
