Abstract: A ceiling fan and a structure thereof are provided. The structure includes a blade holder, a plurality of blades, and a plurality of positioning elements. The blade holder includes a holder body and a plurality of support platforms. The holder body has a plurality of first matching structures spaced apart from each other. Each of the support platforms includes a first positioning structure. Each of the blades has a second matching structure and a second positioning structure. The second matching structures can be guided by the first matching structures, so that each of the blades is disposed at an installation position on one of the support platforms along an oblique track. When each of the blades is located at the installation position, the first positioning structures and the second positioning structures abut against each other.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for fabricating a semiconductor structure. The method includes providing a substrate with a gate structure, an insulating structure over the gate structure, and a S/D region; depositing a titanium silicide layer over the S/D region with a first chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process. The first CVD process includes a first hydrogen gas flow. The method also includes depositing a titanium nitride layer over the insulating structure with a second CVD process. The second CVD process includes a second hydrogen gas flow. The first and second CVD processes are performed in a single reaction chamber and a flow rate of the first hydrogen gas flow is higher than a flow rate of the second hydrogen gas flow.

Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor device includes forming source/drain regions on opposing sides of a gate structure, where the gate structure is over a fin and surrounded by a first dielectric layer; forming openings in the first dielectric layer to expose the source/drain regions; selectively forming silicide regions in the openings on the source/drain regions using a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) process; and filling the openings with an electrically conductive material.

Abstract: In some implementations, one or more semiconductor processing tools may form a metal cap on a metal gate. The one or more semiconductor processing tools may form one or more dielectric layers on the metal cap. The one or more semiconductor processing tools may form a recess to the metal cap within the one or more dielectric layers. The one or more semiconductor processing tools may perform a bottom-up deposition of metal material on the metal cap to form a metal plug within the recess and directly on the metal cap.

Abstract: A virtual private network communication system, a routing device and a method thereof are provided. The system includes a server and a plurality of routing devices. The routing devices respectively transmit registration information to the server, wherein the registration information includes a recognition string. The routing devices include a first routing device and a second routing device. The first routing device transmits a positioning request to the server, and the server transmits the positioning request to a part of or all of the routing devices according to the recognition string. When the second routing device receives the positioning request, the second routing device transmits positioning information according to the positioning request to the first routing device via the server. The first routing device directly establishes a connection with the second routing device according to the positioning information and transmits data after the connection is established.

Abstract: A routing device is provided, the routing device includes a first network interface unit, a second network interface unit and a processing unit. The first network interface unit connects the routing device to a local private network. The second network interface unit connects the routing device to the Internet. The processing unit assigns a virtual subnet to a remote routing device for a remote host in a remote private network to obtain a virtual Internet protocol (IP) address according to the virtual subnet. The processing unit receives a network packet from a local host in the local private network through the first network interface unit, and encapsulates the network packet according to a public IP address of the remote routing device to generate an alternative packet. Then, the processing unit delivers the alternative packet to the Internet through the second network interface unit.
