Abstract: A method includes forming a first gate dielectric, a second gate dielectric, and a third gate dielectric over a first semiconductor region, a second semiconductor region, and a third semiconductor region, respectively. The method further includes depositing a first lanthanum-containing layer overlapping the first gate dielectric, and depositing a second lanthanum-containing layer overlapping the second gate dielectric. The second lanthanum-containing layer is thinner than the first lanthanum-containing layer. An anneal process is then performed to drive lanthanum in the first lanthanum-containing layer and the second lanthanum-containing layer into the first gate dielectric and the second gate dielectric, respectively. During the anneal process, the third gate dielectric is free from lanthanum-containing layers thereon.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for reconstructing incomplete data of X-ray absorption contrast computed tomography (CT) based on deep learning (DL). The method includes the following steps: using a filtered back projection (FBP) algorithm to obtain an initial reconstructed image; forward projecting the initial reconstructed image to obtain artifact-contaminated complete projection sequences; using a DL technique to process the artifact-contaminated projection sequences to obtain artifact-free projection sequences; using the FBP algorithm to reconstruct the artifact-free projection sequences to obtain a final reconstructed image. Compared with the traditional incomplete data reconstruction methods, the examples of the present invention feature a simpler calculation process, fewer parameters to be manually set, a faster calculation speed and higher image quality.

Abstract: A method for preparing a carbon-coated ternary positive electrode material has steps of preparing a ternary positive electrode material precursor, and preparing a suspension of the ternary positive electrode material precursor. Lithium acrylate is added to the suspension of the ternary positive electrode material precursor according to the molar ratio of Li:(Ni+Co+Mn) being 1.03-1.05:1. Ammonium persulphate is added to the lithium acrylate-containing suspension of the ternary positive electrode material precursor, so that the lithium acrylate undergoes a polymerisation reaction and a suspension of a lithium polyacrylate-coated ternary positive electrode material precursor is obtained. The suspension of the lithium polyacrylate-coated ternary positive electrode material precursor is dried to obtain spherical particles. The lithium polyacrylate-coated ternary positive electrode material precursor particles are sintered to obtain a carbon-coated ternary positive electrode material.
