  • Patent number: 11923205
    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.

  • Patent number: 11266247
    Abstract: An easily assembled chair armrest composed an armrest support, a connecting portion, and an armrest revealed. The connecting portion with a lock head is selectively disposed on the armrest or the armrest support while a locking hole is arranged at the armrest or the armrest support without the connecting portion. A locking slot communicates with the inner side of the locking hole. The armrest and the armrest support are in a first assembled state when the lock head is mounted into the locking slot through the lock hole. Then the lock head is horizontally rotated a staggered angle within the locking slot so that a lengthwise central axis of the armrest and a lengthwise central axis of the armrest support are coupled. Now the armrest and the armrest support are fastened into one part to be in a second assembled state. Thereby both structural strength and tightness are improved.
