Abstract: Methods of forming line-end extensions and devices having line-end extensions are provided. In some embodiments, a method includes forming a patterned photoresist on a first region of a hard mask layer. A line-end extension region is formed in the hard mask layer. The line-end extension region extends laterally outward from an end of the first region of the hard mask layer. The line-end extension region may be formed by changing a physical property of the hard mask layer at the line-end extension region.

Abstract: A method for making a hollow box includes a step of cutting a plate into identification members; a step of sucking the plate to be attached on a fixed area of a female mold by a suction device; a step of squeezing melting and semi-solidified thermo-plastic material and sealing a lower end of the melting and semi-solidified thermo-plastic material, the melting and semi-solidified thermo-plastic material being expanded by the air introduced therein; a step of clamping the melting and semi-solidified thermo-plastic material by a female mold and a male mold; a step of expanding the melting and semi-solidified thermo-plastic material until the melting and semi-solidified thermo-plastic material contacts against insides of the female and male molds; a step of melting the surface of the identification member which is connected to the hollow box; a step of cooling obtaining the product by separating the female and male molds.

Abstract: A blow molding mold assembly includes a first mold having a recess for receiving a dye permeable member therein. A second mold is overlapped on the first mold and a mediate mold is clamped between the first mold and the second mold. A connection pipe assembly extends through the first mold and communicates with the dye permeable member so as to let dye attached on the material located on the mediate mold via the dye permeable member.
