  • Patent number: 12224179
    Abstract: The current disclosure describes techniques of protecting a metal interconnect structure from being damaged by subsequent chemical mechanical polishing processes used for forming other metal structures over the metal interconnect structure. The metal interconnect structure is receded to form a recess between the metal interconnect structure and the surrounding dielectric layer. A metal cap structure is formed within the recess. An upper portion of the dielectric layer is strained to include a tensile stress which expands the dielectric layer against the metal cap structure to reduce or eliminate a gap in the interface between the metal cap structure and the dielectric layer.

  • Publication number: 20240398499
    Abstract: A body-wearable medical device has first and second housing portions. The first housing portion has a female portion and the second housing portion has a male portion. The male portion is at least partially inserted into the female portion, thereby defining a circumferential clearance gap. A circumferential sealing element is arranged in the circumferential clearance gap between the female portion and the male portion. In order to provide a body-wearable medical device with improved sealing that is less prone to failure by stress and forces exerted on the body-wearable medical device, the female portion and the male portion are fixed to each other by a circumferential fixation glue arranged in the circumferential clearance gap between the female portion and the male portion next to the circumferential sealing element.
