  • Patent number: 11916110
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for forming semiconductor device structures. The method includes forming a fin structure having a stack of semiconductor layers comprising first semiconductor layers and second semiconductor layers alternatingly arranged, forming a sacrificial gate structure over a portion of the fin structure, removing the first and second semiconductor layers in a source/drain region of the fin structure that is not covered by the sacrificial gate structure, forming an epitaxial source/drain feature in the source/drain region, removing portions of the sacrificial gate structure to expose the first and second semiconductor layers, removing portions of the second semiconductor layers so that at least one second semiconductor layer has a width less than a width of each of the first semiconductor layers, forming a conformal gate dielectric layer on exposed first and second semiconductor layers, and forming a gate electrode layer on the conformal gate dielectric layer.

  • Patent number: 10973144
    Abstract: Provided is an electronic device, including a main body, a first functional module, a linkage mechanism, and a second functional module. The first functional module is slidably provided on the main body between a first position and a second position. The linkage mechanism is provided on the main body and is connected to the first functional module. The second functional module is linked to the linkage mechanism and is provided on the main body in a turnover manner, in which when the first functional module is located at the first position, the second functional module is covered by the first functional module, and when the first functional module moves to the second position and the second functional module is exposed, the second functional module is driven by the linkage mechanism to be turned up.

  • Patent number: 10936018
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a supporting plate, at least one main positioning magnet and a body. The supporting plate has an edge. The supporting plate is provided with a first positioning magnet structure therein. The main positioning magnet is disposed at the supporting plate. The body is movably disposed at the supporting plate, wherein the body has a first axis and a second axis intersected with the first axis. The body is provided with a main auxiliary magnet and a first auxiliary magnet structure therein. The main auxiliary magnet is located at the intersection of the first axis and the second axis, and the first auxiliary magnet structure is located on the first axis. The main auxiliary magnet is configured to be aligned with the main positioning magnet and magnetically attracted to the main positioning magnet.

  • Patent number: 10895889
    Abstract: A notebook computer including a first body, a second body having a first display, a third body having a second display, a first hinge module, a second hinge module, a first electronic module, a second electronic module, and a switch module is provided. The first body and the second body rotate relatively via the first hinge module, and the second body and the third body rotate relatively via the second hinge module. The switch module is disposed in the first hinge module, and the switch module is electrically connected to and activates the first electronic module or the second electronic module depending on a rotating state of the first hinge module.

  • Patent number: 10802548
    Abstract: An electronic device including a first body and a second body pivoted to each other is provided. The first body includes a frame, a display assembled an inner side of the frame, and a latch assembly disposed within the frame to lock or release the display. When the first body and the second body are rotated relatively to a tent position, the display is released by the latch assembly so as to be moved along the frame.
