Abstract: A wireless communication method and apparatus for handling radio resource collision are provided. The wireless communication method includes receiving a Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration indicating a first Control Resource Set (CORESET) pool index associated with a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) designated to carry Uplink Control Information (UCI); determining whether the PUCCH overlaps one or more Physical Uplink Shared Channels (PUSCHs) in time domain; after determining that the PUCCH overlaps at least one of the one or more PUSCHs in the time domain, multiplexing the UCI on a particular PUSCH of the one or more PUSCHs that is associated with the first CORESET pool index; and transmitting the UCI via the particular PUSCH.

Abstract: A button mechanism includes a button, a module, and a thin sheet spring. The thin sheet spring is in physical communication with the button and with the module. The thin sheet spring exerts a tension force on the button and the module to bias the button toward a normal position. In response to a force greater than the tension force being exerted on the button, a portion of the thin sheet stretches to enable the button to be placed in a contact position. In response to the force being removed from the button, the tension force causes the thin sheet to snap back to an original position and biases the button toward the normal position.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a first dielectric layer over a semiconductor fin. The method includes forming a second dielectric layer over the first dielectric layer. The method includes exposing a portion of the first dielectric layer. The method includes oxidizing a surface of the second dielectric layer while limiting oxidation on the exposed portion of the first dielectric layer.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a screwdriver tool assembly including a screwdriver tool and plural screwdriver bits. The screwdriver tool includes a main body, a cover, a working member, and an anti-detachment unit. The main body has a shaft member and a first axial hole penetrating the shaft member. The cover is arranged at a rear end of the main body and has a second axial hole. The working member is arranged at a front end of the main body and has a third axial hole. The first, the second, and the third axial holes communicate each other. The anti-detachment unit is adapted for preventing the screwdriver bit from moving backward to leave the screwdriver tool. Thus, the screwdriver tool assembly is able to receive plural screwdriver bits to be easy to carry. In addition, the process of changing the screwdriver bits becomes simpler.
