  • Publication number: 20240132246
    Abstract: A carton with a detachable buffer plate set includes a bottom plate, two long side plates, an upper cover, two short side plates, two reinforcing side plates, and a detachable buffer plate set. The long side plates and the short side plates are connected to the bottom plate. The upper cover is connected to one of the long side plates. The two reinforcing side plates are connected to the two short side plates respectively. The detachable buffer plate set is detachably connected to one of the reinforcing side plates. Accordingly, by detaching the detachable buffer plate set for supporting and buffering, products of similar size or products with accessories of different sizes may use the same-sized cartons and paper-plastic boxes, so that extra die-cutting costs and storage costs are avoided.

  • Patent number: 11817481
    Abstract: A method for controlling Schottky barrier height in a semiconductor device includes forming an alloy layer including at least a first element and a second element on a first surface of a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate is a first element-based semiconductor substrate, and the first element and the second element are Group IV elements. A first thermal anneal of the alloy layer and the first element-based substrate is performed. The first thermal anneal causes the second element in the alloy layer to migrate towards a surface of the alloy layer. A Schottky contact layer is formed on the alloy layer after the first thermal anneal.
