  • Patent number: 11967504
    Abstract: A method includes removing a first dummy gate structure to form a recess around a first nanostructure and a second nanostructure; depositing a sacrificial layer in the recess with a flowable chemical vapor deposition (CVD); and patterning the sacrificial layer to leave a portion of the sacrificial layer between the first nanostructure and the second nanostructure. The method further include depositing a first work function metal in first recess; removing the first work function metal and the portion of the sacrificial layer from the recess; depositing a second work function metal in the recess, wherein the second work function metal is of an opposite type than the first work function metal; and depositing a fill metal over the second work function metal in the recess.

  • Patent number: 10121401
    Abstract: A shift register circuit includes a plurality of shift registers. Each shift register includes a driving module, a voltage pre-storing module, a pulling up module, a pulling down module and a pulling down control module. The voltage pre-storing module includes a reset unit, an electric power storage unit and an output unit. The driving module, the voltage pre-storing module and the reset unit are electrically connected to a first node. One end of the electric power storage unit is electrically connected to the first node, and the another end is configured to receive the touch start signal and the touch end signal. The output unit is electrically connected between the first node and the second node. The pulling up module and the pulling down module are electrically connected to the second node. The pulling down control module is electrically connected to the pulling down module.
