  • Publication number: 20210126135
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a plurality of nanowires, a gate structure, a source/drain epitaxy structure, and a semiconductor layer. The substrate has a protrusion portion. The nanowires extend in a first direction above the protrusion portion of the substrate, the nanowires being arranged in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The gate structure wraps around each of the nanowires. The source/drain epitaxy structure is in contact with an end surface of each of the nanowires, in which a bottom surface of the source/drain epitaxy structure is lower than a top surface of the protrusion portion of the substrate. The semiconductor layer is in contact with the bottom surface of the epitaxy structure, in which the semiconductor layer is spaced from the protrusion portion of the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20210066477
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. The method includes forming a fin structure in which first semiconductor layers and second semiconductor layers are alternately stacked; forming a sacrificial gate structure over the fin structure; etching a source/drain region of the fin structure, which is not covered by the sacrificial gate structure, thereby forming a source/drain trench; laterally etching the first semiconductor layers through the source/drain trench; forming an inner spacer layer, in the source/drain trench, at least on lateral ends of the etched first semiconductor layers; forming a seeding layer on the inner spacer layer; and growing a source/drain epitaxial layer in the source/drain trench, wherein the growing of the source/drain epitaxial layer includes growing the source/drain epitaxial layer from the seeding layer.

  • Publication number: 20040130685
    Abstract: An automatic focusing projector comprises a rangefinder, microprocessor, stepping motor and zoom lens. The rangefinder is used to measure a distance between the projector and a projection screen. The table look-up method is used to obtain a position that the stepping motor should be rotated after the microprocessor read the distance. And then, the stepping motor is commanded to drive the zoom lens to the position. Thereby, the automatic focusing method can be performed on a projector device.
