Abstract: A fan-out wafer-level packaging structure and a method for manufacturing it are disclosed. The structure includes: a rewiring layer, a chip, an electrical component, a protective layer made of UV-curable adhesive, a molding layer, and a solder ball. The protective layer is disposed on surfaces of the electrical component, sealing the electrical component, and ensuring its safe operation and reliability, mitigating risks of melting and spillage of solder in the electrical component, and preventing electrical shorts and delamination between molding layers and the electrical component. The protective layer is formed by UV-curing or UV/thermal-dual-curing, to prevent loss of upper portions of the adhesive resulted from the upper portions flowing downward after dispensing. A dual-curing process can further solidify the protective layer, enabling the protective layer to better seal and protect the electrical component.

The network device may deny the sub-band full duplex uplink transmission for the first UE based on determining that the first UE and the second UE are associated with a separation that is less than the threshold separation.

Abstract: A method for adjusting the volume of nucleic acid nanoballs. By performing coagulation treatment on a nucleic acid (for example, adding a nucleic acid coagulating agent and/or adjusting the pH value to 3-4.5, so that positively charged counter ions are gathered around the nucleic acid, and negative charges on the surface of the nucleic acid are neutralized by cations by means of electrostatic bonding of anions and cations, thereby enabling the nucleic acid to coagulate), the shape of the nucleic acid nanoballs can be changed, the volume of the nucleic acid nanoballs can be adjusted, and the nucleic acid nanoballs can be compressed. The nucleic acid nanoballs obtained by the method are more compact, smaller in shape, and more uniform in size. The method can be used in any situation where the volume of the nucleic acid nanoballs needs to be adjusted.
