  • Patent number: 11942556
    Abstract: A device includes a first channel layer, a second channel layer, a gate structure, a source/drain epitaxial structure, and a source/drain contact. The first channel layer and the second channel layer are arranged above the first channel layer in a spaced apart manner over a substrate. The gate structure surrounds the first and second channel layers. The source/drain epitaxial structure is connected to the first and second channel layers. The source/drain contact is connected to the source/drain epitaxial structure. The second channel layer is closer to the source/drain contact than the first channel layer is to the source/drain contact, and the first channel layer is thicker than the second channel layer.

  • Publication number: 20060150101
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of a continuous repeat segment playback of an electronic file that can be utilized on a portable electronic device. The method of a continuous repeat segment playback includes: recalling a setup interface; inputting a repeat segment starting time; inputting a repeat segment ending time; beginning a playback of an electronic file at the inputted starting time and stopping the playback of the electronic file at the inputted ending time; and recalling the setup interface and identifying whether the repeat segment of the electronic file shall be continuously played. If it fails to hold, then the playback of the MP3 file is discontinued; such identifying procedure ensures that while the portable electronic device is executing the repeat segment playback of an electronic file, the file can still be continuously played in case the user exits such mode.
