Abstract: A method for DRC verification of a design layout file comprising off-grid patterns includes identifying an off-grid pattern having one or more off-grid sides, outwardly expanding the one or more off-grid sides to adjacent grids to obtain a first on-grid pattern, inwardly contracting the expanded one or more sides of the first on-grid pattern to adjacent grids to obtain a second on-grid pattern, and performing a DRC verification on the second on-grid pattern using an existing on-grid DRC deck. The method also includes making a backup copy of the design layout file prior to converting the identified off-grid pattern into an on-grid pattern.

Abstract: Methods for providing black frame insertion in a display system are provided, wherein the display system includes a display device, a driving module coupled to the display device and a processor coupled to the driving module. First, a control signal is generated and sent to the driving module by the processor to control the driving module to perform black frame insertion in a black frame insertion period. A control signal is generated by the processor and sent to the driving module to control the driving module to perform the black frame insertion in the black frame insertion period. Inserted image data for use in the black frame insertion is generated by the driving module to be displayed by the display device during the black frame insertion period in response to receiving the control signal.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a first mask layer, a second mask layer, and a plurality of first patterned layers on an interlayer dielectric layer and a plurality of gate structures. A plurality of first openings separate the first patterned layers with each across a source region, a drain region, and a portion of an isolation area between the source and the drain regions. The second mask layer is then patterned by etching. The method includes forming a plurality of discrete second patterned layers above the isolation areas between source and drain regions and then forming a patterned first mask layer by etching. Further, the method includes forming a plurality of contact vias to expose the source/drain regions through etching using the patterned first mask layer and second mask layer as an etch mask, and then forming a metal silicide layer on each source/drain region.
