  • DEPOSITION-SELECTIVE ETCH-DEPOSITION PROCESS FOR DIELECTRIC FILM GAPFILL
    Publication number: 20060286764
    Abstract: A deposition/etching/deposition process is provided for filling a gap in a surface of a substrate. A liner is formed over the substrate so that distinctive reaction products are formed when it is exposed to a chemical etchant. The detection of such reaction products thus indicates that the portion of the film deposited during the first etching has been removed to an extent that further exposure to the etchant may remove the liner and expose underlying structures. Accordingly, the etching is stopped upon detection of distinctive reaction products and the next deposition in the deposition/etching/deposition process is begun.

  • Method and apparatus for initiating welding arc using chemical spray
    Patent number: 7109433
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for initiating an arc (e.g., a welding arc) by placing liquid droplets containing ions in the gap between an electrode and a workpiece. This is done while a potential difference is applied between the electrode and the workpiece. The presence of the ions renders the gap between the electrode and the workpiece more conductive, thereby reducing the voltage threshold needed to initiate an arc between the electrode and the workpiece. When the voltage threshold reaches the level of the applied potential difference, the arc will be initiated.

  • Back cover assembly structure for electronic apparatus
    Publication number: 20060091710
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an assembly structure for a back cover of an electronic apparatus. The electronic apparatus has a frame, a display and a back cover connected with the frame to each other for allowing the display to be accepted therein. The assembly structure for the back cover comprises at least one pseudo fixing unit disposed between the frame and the back cover. The pseudo fixing unit includes a column and a calabash-shaped through hole matched to each other and allows the back cover to be positioned on the frame to form a false positioning between the back cover and the frame to process a fixing operation. An operator does not need to support the back cover to attach it to the frame not only auxiliary positioning effect is formed but also the assembly performing difficulty is reduced and the operation processing efficiency is enhanced.
