Abstract: A thin film transistor includes a gate electrode embedded in an insulating layer that overlies a substrate, a gate dielectric overlying the gate electrode, an active layer comprising a compound semiconductor material and overlying the gate dielectric, and a source electrode and drain electrode contacting end portions of the active layer. The gate dielectric may have thicker portions over interfaces with the insulating layer to suppress hydrogen diffusion therethrough. Additionally or alternatively, a passivation capping dielectric including a dielectric metal oxide material may be interposed between the active layer and a dielectric layer overlying the active layer to suppress hydrogen diffusion therethrough.

Abstract: A device and a method for robotic process automation of multiple electronic computing devices are disclosed. The device creates and stores a script that records at least an event relating to a first device and at least one action corresponding to the event. The device continuously receives a current screenshot image of a first device, and continuously analyzes the current screenshot image of the first device according to the script so as to determine whether the event has occurred. When determining that the event has occurred, the device generates at least one control signal corresponding to the at least one action according to the script, and transmits the at least one control signal to a second device, so as to perform the at least one action for the second device.

Abstract: An aquatic cultivation system includes a bowl and a siphon equipment. The bowl contains a liquid. The siphon equipment includes a liquid intake tube, and a liquid exit tube. At least one of the liquid tube and the liquid exit tube includes an air vent. The siphon equipment includes a water level control element corresponding to the air vent. The water level control element includes a connection portion and a brake portion located on the connection portion. The brake portion is movable on a reciprocal movement locus when subject to change of liquid water level elevation to close or release the air vent, thereby drives the siphon equipment to draw intermittently the liquid in the bowl. As a result, filths in the bowl can be removed and an intermittent turbulent current can be generated to prevent the filths from depositing at the bottom of the bowl.

Abstract: An external cultivation liquid siphon includes a liquid delivery equipment located in a cultivation liquid storage tank to continuously pump cultivation liquid to a plant cultivation pot and an external siphon equipment to bridge the cultivation liquid storage tank and the plant cultivation pot. The external siphon equipment has a tubular facility with variations in tubular diameters to generate siphonage action to fill the tubular facility with flowing liquid. Thus the cultivation liquid pumped by the liquid delivery equipment to the plant cultivation pot can circulate reciprocally between an upper liquid level and a lower liquid level to cultivate plants.

Abstract: A method for accelerating boot-up and a computer system device are provided. The method includes following steps. An adjusting procedure/program is executed, and the adjusting procedure/program includes adjusting at least one target procedure/program to be at least one delay-executing procedure/program according to a default list. After a boot-up process of the computer system device is completed, and after a default waiting period has passed, the at least one delay-executing procedure/program is executed. Since the service and/or application procedures/programs irrelevant to the boot-up process are not executed during the boot-up process, the boot-up of the computer system device is accelerated effectively.

Abstract: A contact to connect wires to electronic instruments includes an elongated body. The elongated body has a front, a rear, two opposite sides and a clamp. The front of the elongated body is bent to form a contact point by stamping. The clamp is formed at the rear of the elongated body, has multiple clamping fingers and recesses and connects a wire to the contact. The clamping fingers are formed complementarily on opposite sides of the elongated body. The recesses are defined transversely in the elongated body and respectively in the clamping fingers. Consequently, the clamp will efficiently grip and hold a wire when a stamp machine rolls the clamping fingers around the wire so the clamping fingers squeeze the wire.
