Abstract: A hot spot defect detecting method and a hot spot defect detecting system are provided. In the method, hot spots are extracted from a design of a semiconductor product to define a hot spot map comprising hot spot groups, wherein local patterns in a same context of the design yielding a same image content are defined as a same hot spot group. During runtime, defect images obtained by an inspection tool performing hot scans on a wafer manufactured with the design are acquired and the hot spot map is aligned to each defect image to locate the hot spot groups. The hot spot defects in each defect image are detected by dynamically mapping the hot spot groups located in each defect image to a plurality of threshold regions and respectively performing automatic thresholding on pixel values of the hot spots of each hot spot group in the corresponding threshold region.

Abstract: A door handle for providing a buffering effect has a base, a rotator, an elastic component, a linker, a handle lever, and a damper. The rotator is engaged through the base. The elastic component hooks a limiting rod of the base and the rotator. The linker is disposed around the rotator and has a restricting rib and a pivot rod. The handle lever is inserted into the rotator. A mini buffer of the damper has a cylinder body mounted to the base, and a piston rod. A pivot arm of the damper is disposed around a shaft of the base and rotatably mounted to the piston rod. An extending arm is rotatably mounted to the pivot arm and the pivot rod, respectively. Since damping impact of the buffer effectively retards the restoring process, the strike of the backwardly swinging handle lever is buffered.

Abstract: This invention discloses that memantine (MMT) protects dopamine (DA) neurons damage through its potent anti-inflammatory effect by inhibiting microglial over-activation and the protection on DA neuron is a dose-dependent response under an effective amount of lower than 10 mg/kg. This invention also discloses that NADPH oxidase plays a critical role of neuroprotection of MMT and MMT therapy for neurodegeneration diseases and disorder acts in part through an alternative novel mechanism by reducing microglia-associated inflammation. In addition, this invention reveals that MMT is neurotrophic to DA neurons through the release of neurotrophic factors from astroglia.
