  • Publication number: 20240096756
    Abstract: A method of making a semiconductor device includes manufacturing a first transistor over a first side of a substrate. The method further includes depositing a spacer material against a sidewall of the first transistor. The method further includes recessing the spacer material to expose a first portion of the sidewall of the first transistor. The method further includes manufacturing a first electrical connection to the transistor, a first portion of the electrical connection contacts a surface of the first transistor farthest from the substrate, and a second portion of the electrical connect contacts the first portion of the sidewall of the first transistor. The method further includes manufacturing a self-aligned interconnect structure (SIS) extending along the spacer material, wherein the spacer material separates a portion of the SIS from the first transistor, and the first electrical connection directly contacts the SIS.

  • Publication number: 20180094801
    Abstract: The modularized light device includes a main member and at least a functional member. The main and functional members have matched conductive terminals, allowing them to be end-to-end cascaded together and installed altogether onto a base. When the base provides electricity, the main member illuminates and each of the functional members performs a specific electronic function. In other words, the lighting device provides not only illumination but also electronic functions adaptable to user requirements, achieving great applicability and convenience.
