  • Patent number: 8325304
    Abstract: A first substrate and a second substrate are provided. An alignment process is performed on a surface of the first substrate and a surface of the second substrate respectively. A liquid crystal mixture is prepared, where the liquid crystal mixture includes a liquid crystal molecule and a liquid crystal monomer having a functional group of diacrylates, and the liquid crystal monomer having the functional group of diacrylates occupies 0.01-2 wt % of the liquid crystal mixture. The first substrate and the second substrate are assembled, and the liquid crystal mixture is filled therebetween. A polymerization curing process is performed such that the liquid crystal monomer having the functional group of diacrylates is polymerized to respectively form a liquid crystal polymer film on the aligned surfaces of the first and second substrates. The method enhances anchoring energy and reduces problems of V-T shift, surface gliding, and residual image.

  • Publication number: 20120095132
    Abstract: A halogen- and phosphorus-free thermosetting resin composition is provided, which is mainly a varnish resin formed by mixing a mixture of two curing agents, an epoxy resin mixture, and an inorganic additive. The mixture of two curing agents is formed by mixing a phenolphthalein modified benzoxazine phenol aldehyde curing agent and an amino triazine novolak, and the epoxy resin mixture is formed by mixing an epoxy resin having an oxazolidone ring or a polyamide-imide-modified epoxy resin and a Bisphenol F epoxy resin.

  • Publication number: 20120049294
    Abstract: A device includes a plurality of intra-device insulation regions having a first height; and a plurality of semiconductor fins horizontally spaced apart from each other by the plurality of intra-device insulation regions. A portion of the plurality of semiconductor fins is disposed above the plurality of intra-device insulation regions. The device further includes a first inter-device insulation region and a second inter-device insulation region with the plurality of semiconductor fins disposed therebetween. The first and the second inter-device insulation regions have a second height greater than the first height.
