  • Publication number: 20090176429
    Abstract: A flame retardant fabric includes a base fabric, a bonding agent and a surface layer. The base fabric is fire-resisting and is a plain weave or knitting fabric fabricated from yarns made of flame retardant man-made fibers, or yarns made by blending, weaving or twisting the flame retardant man-made fibers and other fibers. The surface layer is a fabric, suede cloth or man-made leather or the like that is aesthetic appealing but not fire-resisting. The bonding agent bonds the base fabric and the surface layer together. The surface layer is not fire resisting, but the resulting composite fabric is flame retardant permanently. It also does not fuse or melt and can be directly carbonized to form an isolation layer.

  • Patent number: 6958283
    Abstract: A method for forming a trench isolation. A semiconductor substrate with an opening is provided, on which a mask layer is formed. A first insulating layer is conformably formed on the semiconductor substrate and the trench, and the trench is filled with the first insulating layer. The first insulating layer is anisotropically etched to below the semiconductor substrate. A second insulating layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate and the trench. The second insulating layer is planarized to expose the mask layer.

  • Patent number: 6946359
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a trench isolation with high aspect ratio. The method comprises the steps of: providing a substrate with a trench; depositing a first isolation layer filling the trench by low pressure chemical vapor deposition; etching the first isolation layer so that its surface is lowered to the opening of the trench; depositing a second isolation layer to fill the trench without voids by high density plasma chemical vapor deposition and achieving global planarization by chemical-mechanical polishing then providing a rapidly annealing procedure. Accordingly, the present invention achieves void-free trench isolation with high aspect ratio.
