Abstract: The disclosure provides a method of active immunotherapy for a cancer patient, comprising administering vaccines against Globo series antigens (i.e., Globo H, SSEA-3 and SSEA-4). Specifically, the method comprises administering Globo H-CRM197 (OBI-833/821) in patients with cancer. The disclosure also provides a method of selecting a cancer patient who is suitable as treatment candidate for immunotherapy. Exemplary immune response can be characterized by reduction of the severity of disease, including but not limited to, prevention of disease, delay in onset of disease, decreased severity of symptoms, decreased morbidity and delayed mortality.

Abstract: A carrier structure is provided with a plurality of package substrates connected via connecting sections, and a functional element and a groove are formed on the connecting section, such that the groove is located between the package substrate and the functional element. Therefore, when a cladding layer covering a chip is formed on the package substrate, the groove can accommodate a glue material overflowing from the cladding layer to prevent the glue material from contaminating the functional element.

Abstract: In some implementations, one or more semiconductor processing tools may form a metal cap on a metal gate. The one or more semiconductor processing tools may form one or more dielectric layers on the metal cap. The one or more semiconductor processing tools may form a recess to the metal cap within the one or more dielectric layers. The one or more semiconductor processing tools may perform a bottom-up deposition of metal material on the metal cap to form a metal plug within the recess and directly on the metal cap.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes: providing a wafer-bonding stack structure having a sidewall layer and an exposed first component layer; forming a photoresist layer on the first component layer; performing an edge trimming process to at least remove the sidewall layer; and removing the photoresist layer. In this way, contaminant particles generated from the blade during the edge trimming process may fall on the photoresist layer but not fall on the first component layer, so as to protect the first component layer from being contaminated.

Abstract: By mixing Poly (3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) with carbon nanotubes (CNT), the resultant mixture of P3HT-CNT serves as a surface coating for the cathode material LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 (NCA) and offers a number of advantageous properties when used as a conductive binder for lithium-ion battery cathode materials.

Abstract: A carbon fiber washer is provided and includes a carbon fiber fabric made of a plurality of fiber bundles being woven, in which each of the plurality of fiber bundles is made of discontinuous fibers; the advantage of the carbon fiber washer of the present invention includes high temperature and fatigue resisting, and weather proofing. The structure of the carbon fiber washer is stable due to the use of discontinuous fibers; breakages of discontinuous fibers do not affect other unbroken discontinuous fibers, so that the structure of the carbon fiber washer would not be loosened or delaminated and the service life can be prolonged accordingly.

Abstract: A three-dimensional geometric photonic crystal and a method of fabricating the photonic crystal are disclosed. The photonic crystal includes a geometric structure having a plurality of electrophoretic self-assembled particles and the plurality of particles are periodically arranged at any cross sections of the geometric structure. The method includes preparing an electrophoresis deposition suspension, installing first and second electrodes in the electrophoresis deposition suspension with the first electrode being encircled by the second electrode, and applying a voltage to the first electrode and the second electrode to form an electric field between the first and second electrodes, such that particles in the electrophoresis deposition suspension are electrophoretic self-assembled, and a periodically arranged geometric structure is formed. A photonic crystal thus may have a three-dimensional geometric structure in any shape.
