Abstract: A method of estimating greenhouse gas emission, performed by a processing device, includes: obtaining at least one time period of a number of working stations for a target manufacturing process of a product; obtaining a number of first power consumption data of the target manufacturing process, wherein the first power consumption data correspond to the working stations respectively; calculating a number of second power consumption data based on the at least one time period and the first power consumption data; searching for a number of target coefficients corresponding to the plurality of working stations respectively in coefficient database based on the target manufacturing process; and calculating greenhouse gas emission data of the target manufacturing process based on the second power consumption data and the target coefficients.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for forming tungsten features in semiconductor devices is provided. The method includes exposing a top opening of a feature formed in a substrate to a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process to deposit a tungsten liner layer within the feature. The PVD process is performed in a first processing region of a first processing chamber and the tungsten liner layer forms an overhang portion, which partially obstructs the top opening of the feature. The substrate is transferred from the first processing region of the first processing chamber to a second processing region of a second processing chamber without breaking vacuum. The overhang portion is exposed to nitrogen-containing radicals in the second processing region to inhibit subsequent growth of tungsten along the overhang portion. The feature is exposed to a tungsten-containing precursor gas to form a tungsten fill layer over the tungsten liner layer within the feature.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for evaluating obstructive sleep apnea with PPG signal are provided. Measured heartbeat interval signal is used to evaluate whether there is obstructive apnea. The system includes a motion sensor for detecting whether a user is in a stationary state; an optical sensor for measuring the heartbeat interval signal of the user in a stationary state; a microprocessor for processing the heartbeat interval signal of the user to obtain an apnea parameter; an alert module for receiving the apnea parameter and feeding them back to the user; and a memory module for storing the apnea parameter after the signal processing. The system and method are used to determine whether the heartbeat interval signal is an obstructive sleep apnea signal, and further determine whether the user is in an obstructive sleep apnea situation.

Abstract: A novel use of 6-[3-(1-adamantyl)-4-methoxyphenyl]-2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or functional derivative thereof in treating a cancer, and in particular esophageal cancer and gastrointestinal stromal tumor, is provided.

Abstract: A injection molding machine includes a power device including a movable plate, a primary motorized cylinder having a primary threaded rod screwed through the movable plate, a secondary motorized cylinder having a secondary threaded rod screwed through the movable plate, a first starter mounted on the primary motorized cylinder and connected with a controller, and a second starter mounted on the secondary motorized cylinder and connected with the controller. The second starter contains a bias factor command and a preset output command. Thus, the normal torque output of the secondary motorized cylinder is close to that of the primary motorized cylinder by control of the bias factor command, and the preset output command limits and prevents the normal torque output of the secondary motorized cylinder from being greater than that of the primary motorized cylinder.

Abstract: A power supply system used in an electronic device includes a light absorption device, exposed to a backlight source of the electronic device, for absorbing backlight irradiated by the backlight source; an energy conversion circuit, coupled to the light absorption device, for converting the backlight irradiated by the backlight source into electrical power; and a power storage device, coupled to the energy conversion circuit, for storing the electrical power of the energy conversion circuit.
