Abstract: A method for making a semiconductor structure includes: providing a substrate with a contact feature thereon; forming a dielectric layer on the substrate; etching the dielectric layer to form an interconnect opening exposing the contact feature; forming a metal layer on the dielectric layer and outside of the contact feature; and forming a graphene conductive structure on the metal layer, the graphene conductive structure filling the interconnect opening, being electrically connected to the contact feature, and having at least one graphene layer that extends in a direction substantially perpendicular to the substrate.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor structure includes forming a first interconnect feature in a first dielectric feature, the first interconnect feature including a first conductive element exposed from the first dielectric feature; forming a first cap feature over the first conductive element, the first cap feature including a first cap element which includes a two-dimensional material; forming a second dielectric feature with a first opening that exposes the first cap element; forming a barrier layer over the second dielectric feature while exposing the first cap element from the barrier layer; removing a portion of the first cap element exposed from the barrier layer; and forming a second conductive element in the first opening.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a sucker is provided in this invention. The method includes steps as forming a sucker by an injection molding; heating the sucker; and cooling the sucker down to a room temperature so that an attaching surface of the sucker is substantially flat.

Abstract: The invention discloses a holding apparatus, which includes a fixed body, a carrying stand and a signal cable. The fixed body includes a ball joint, extending portion and a cable tunnel. The cable tunnel, disposed within the fixed body, is connected to a first opening of the ball joint. The carrying stand includes a casing, a pivot component and a transmitting interface. The ball joint is pivotally connected to the pivot component through a second opening of the casing. The signal cable, disposed through the cable tunnel of the ball joint, is electrically connected to the transmitting interface within the carrying stand. When the carrying stand rotates relative to the fixed body, a limiting portion of the pivot component is used for stopping the extending portion, so as to limit a rotating angle of the carrying stand.

Abstract: A supporting rack for supporting an electronic device includes a main body, a rotating arm, a fastening member and a position portion. The main body includes a connecting portion and a plurality of holding members. The connecting portion is connected with the electronic device, the holding members are disposed on the connecting portion, and each of which includes a first surface and a second surface opposite thereto. A gap is formed between adjacent holding members. The rotating arm, held by the holding members, tightly contacts the first surface. The fastening member connects with the holding members between a first position and a second position. The position portion is disposed on the holding member. When the fastening member is connected with the holding members at the first position, an interference, formed between the fastening members and the second surface, is increased as the fastening member is moved toward the second position.

Abstract: The invention provides a holding apparatus. The holding apparatus comprises a loading stand and a positioning pivot pillar. A pivoting part comprising at least one adjusting unit is set on the loading stand. A pivot member comprising a plurality of locking units is set on one end of the positioning pivot pillar. The pivot member is movably pivoted to the pivoting part. When one of the at least one adjusting unit and one of the plurality of locking units are locked due to a rotation occurred between the loading stand and the positioning pivot pillar, the loading stand and the positioning pivot pillar will form a locked state.

Abstract: An input apparatus and auxiliary input apparatus are described. In one embodiment, the input apparatus has an input unit and at least one supporting arm. Users hold the supporting arms with some of their fingers and operate the input units with other of their fingers. In another embodiment, the auxiliary data input apparatus utilizes an attachment device, e.g. a clip, to attach the auxiliary input apparatus to an electronic or mechanical device, e.g. a separable keyboard, to facilitate input operations. The auxiliary input apparatus has at least one supporting arm. Users hold the supporting arms with some of their fingers and operate the electronic or mechanical device with other of their fingers.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an electronic instrument holding device and, more particularly, to an electronic instrument holding device having a circuit board. The present invention holds an electronic instrument at a predetermined angle and connects an input device to the electronic instrument so that a user may input information into the electronic instrument with a comfortable viewing angle. A circuit board may also be equipped on the electronic instrument holding device to replace or enhance the board disposed inside the input device so that manufacturing and assembling the input device are accelerated.

Abstract: An external input device for a portable computer or personal digital assistant (PDA) has at least one rotatable sideboard. The sideboard operates in two states. When the sideboard is in the first state, the sideboard protects the key sets, and when the sideboard is in a second state, the sideboard facilitates input operation of user.

Abstract: An input apparatus for holding and cooperating with electrical devices such as personal digital assistants (PDAs) having different sizes includes a housing, an input interface, and a cap. The housing includes a front plate, a bottom plate, and two side portions, and the cap is disposed between the two side portions. The cap and housing together form a first space to contain an electrical device with a smaller size when cap is positioned in a top position. Also, the cap may be moved to a bottom position to form a second space for containing an electrical device with a larger size.

Abstract: A supporting apparatus for use with an input device to support an electronic instrument is provided. The supporting apparatus includes a first unit and a supporter. The first unit is rotatably connected to a housing of the input device. When the supporting apparatus is in a closed state, the supporting apparatus covers the input device to protect the input device. When the supporting apparatus is in an open state, the supporting apparatus is automatically configured to a stable state capable of supporting an electronic instrument in one action.
