    Abstract: Disclosed are a display apparatus, a drive chip, and an electronic device. When determining that a disconnected signal line exists, the drive chip sends a control signal to a signal line repair module, so that when a shift output end of the first shift unit corresponding to the disconnected signal line outputs an enable signal, a selector switch corresponding to the shift output end is turned on, and then a connection control unit keeps outputting a turn-on signal to a control end of a corresponding connection switch.

  • Publication number: 20240088217
    Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form semiconductor devices that include a layer across an upper surface of a dielectric fill between devices and configured to prevent or otherwise reduce recessing of the dielectric fill. In this manner, the layer may be referred to as a barrier layer or recess-inhibiting layer. The semiconductor regions of the devices extend above a subfin region that may be native to the substrate. These subfin regions are separated from one another using a dielectric fill that acts as a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure to electrically isolate devices from one another. A barrier layer is formed over the dielectric fill early in the fabrication process to prevent or otherwise reduce the dielectric fill from recessing during subsequent processing. The layer may include oxygen and a metal, such as aluminum.

  • Publication number: 20240088265
    Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form semiconductor devices having epitaxial growth laterally extending between inner spacer structures to mitigate issues caused by the inner spacer structures either being too thick or too thin. A directional etch is performed along the side of a multilayer fin to create a relatively narrow opening for a source or drain region to increase the usable fin space for forming the inner spacer structures. After the inner spacer structures are formed around ends of the semiconductor layers within the fin, the exposed ends of the semiconductor layers are laterally recessed inwards from the outermost sidewalls of the inner spacer structures. Accordingly, the epitaxial source or drain region is grown from the recessed semiconductor ends and thus fills in the recessed regions between the spacer structures.

  • Patent number: 11925447
    Abstract: A method and system including a monitoring device to detect, during a session, a set of radar signals associated with first respiratory-related movements of a first person and second respiratory-related movements of a second person located within a detection zone comprising at least a portion of a bed. The method and system dynamically generate an out-of-bed zone adjacent to a side of the bed. The out-of-bed zone is monitored to detect motion within the zone to determine when the first person exits and enters the bed. The method and system identify a portion of the set of radar signals collected during a time period when the first person is determined to be out of the bed. The identified portion of the set of radar signals is removed from the set of radar signals collected during the sleep session.
