Patent number: 11978703Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a conductive line, a pad layer, and a barrier layer. The conductive line is embedded in a multi-level interconnect structure. The pad layer is over the conductive line. The barrier layer is between the conductive line and the pad layer. The pad layer is electrically connected to the conductive line through the barrier layer, and the barrier layer includes a first poly-crystalline layer and a second poly-crystalline layer. A boundary is between the first poly-crystalline layer and the second poly-crystalline layer.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2022Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: Ya-Chin Chiu, Ming-Hsien Lin, Chia-Tung Hsu, Lun-Chieh Chiu

Patent number: 11964811Abstract: A liquid storage tank includes a housing, a piston located in the housing, a cover, an elastic element, and an outlet pipe. The cover is attached to the housing and has a support post extending toward the piston. The piston, the housing, and the cover define a tank chamber. The tank chamber is filled with cooling liquid. The elastic element is connected with the tank hosing and the piston. The elastic element is free from contact with the cooling liquid. The outlet pipe communicates with the tank chamber. An extension direction of an opening of the outlet pipe is not parallel to a direction of movement of the elastic element. When the cooling liquid is decreased, the piston compressed the tank chamber such that the elastic element is released. The tank chamber is continuously compressed by pairing the elastic element and the piston.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: DELTA ELECTRONICS, INC.Inventors: Yu-Jei Huang, Wei-Fang Wu, Chia-Ying Hsu, Chih-Chieh Lu

Patent number: 11934027Abstract: An optical system affixed to an electronic apparatus is provided, including a first optical module, a second optical module, and a third optical module. The first optical module is configured to adjust the moving direction of a first light from a first moving direction to a second moving direction, wherein the first moving direction is not parallel to the second moving direction. The second optical module is configured to receive the first light moving in the second moving direction. The first light reaches the third optical module via the first optical module and the second optical module in sequence. The third optical module includes a first photoelectric converter configured to transform the first light into a first image signal.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: TDK TAIWAN CORP.Inventors: Chao-Chang Hu, Chih-Wei Weng, Chia-Che Wu, Chien-Yu Kao, Hsiao-Hsin Hu, He-Ling Chang, Chao-Hsi Wang, Chen-Hsien Fan, Che-Wei Chang, Mao-Gen Jian, Sung-Mao Tsai, Wei-Jhe Shen, Yung-Ping Yang, Sin-Hong Lin, Tzu-Yu Chang, Sin-Jhong Song, Shang-Yu Hsu, Meng-Ting Lin, Shih-Wei Hung, Yu-Huai Liao, Mao-Kuo Hsu, Hsueh-Ju Lu, Ching-Chieh Huang, Chih-Wen Chiang, Yu-Chiao Lo, Ying-Jen Wang, Shu-Shan Chen, Che-Hsiang Chiu

Patent number: 11552323Abstract: A biofuel cell includes a cathode, an anode, and a microbial community. At least one of the anode and the cathode contains a biochar prepared from a Trapa natans husk as an electrode material, and the anode is located in the microbial community. By using the biochar prepared from the Trapa natans husk as the electrode material, not only can the power density of the biofuel cell be increased, but the economic benefits of waste recycling can also be achieved.Type: GrantFiled: December 25, 2020Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: National Tsing Hua UniversityInventors: Fang-Yi Lin, Yao-Yu Lin, Chia-Chieh Hsu, Han-Yi Chen, Tzu-Yin Liu
