  • Publication number: 20090273004
    Abstract: A chip package structure and method thereof uses a semiconductor substrate as a package substrate, which improve heat dissipation. Also, the chip package structure is incorporated with a planarization structure, which renders the chip and the package substrate a substantially planar surface, thereby making formation of a planar patterned conductive layer possible. Accordingly, electrical connections in series or in parallel between chips can be easily implemented by virtue of the planar patterned conductive layer.

  • Publication number: 20090152250
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a beam modulating apparatus for mold fabrication by ultra-fast laser technique. More particularly, the present invention discloses a beam modulating apparatus for fabricating micro-/nano-scaled structures, which adopts an energy shaping scheme for beam shape modulation while using the modulated beam for mold fabrication. Following the development of flexible electronic devices, such as flexible displays, all kinds of roller molds formed with micro-/nano-scaled structures are becoming the key issue for commercialization and mass production which require a breakthrough in ultra-precision machining and photo-lithography that overcomes the bottlenecks related to shape, size, thermal effect and precision for fabricating sub-micron sized structures and thus greatly enhancing product design capability and functionality.

  • Publication number: 20090053425
    Abstract: A method for producing single-dimensioned gold-nano-particle patterns having a single-particle resolution in which the line-width is only limited by the particle size. Initially, a focused electron beam is used to generate a positive charge layer on an SiO2 surface. Biotinated DNA molecules attracted by these positive charges are then used to acquire Au-nano-particles revealing the e-beam exposure patterns. The particles in the single-line patterns become separated in an orderly manner, due to the repulsive force between different Au colloidal particles. Each single-line pattern has potential use in nano-photonics and nano-electronics. In nano-electronics, the line patterns serve as a template for high or low resistance conductive nano-wires. Low resistance wires exhibit linear current-voltage characteristics with an extremely high maximum allowed current density. The high resistance wires display charging effect with clear Coulomb oscillation behavior at low temperatures.
