  • Electronic device and method of forming the same
    Patent number: 11966133
    Abstract: An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes a substrate, a plurality of color filters disposed on the substrate, an optical film disposed on the plurality of color filter, and a defect disposed between the substrate and the optical film. The optical film has a first base, a protective layer on the first base, and a second base between the first base and the protective layer and having a first processed area. In a top view of the electronic device, the first processed area corresponds to the defect and at least partially overlaps at least two color filters.

  • Mask cleaning
    Patent number: 11921434
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a vacuum chamber, a reflective optical element arranged in the vacuum chamber and configured to reflect an extreme ultra-violet (EUV) light, and a cleaning module positioned in the vacuum chamber. the cleaning module is operable to provide a mitigation gas flowing towards the reflective optical element and provide a hydrogen-containing gas flowing towards the reflective optical element. The mitigation gas mitigates, by chemical reaction, contamination of the reflective optical element.

  • Method of controlling complexity for video compressor
    Patent number: 8077777
    Abstract: A video compressor has a real-time compression with a constant frame rate. The complexity in the compression of each frame is controlled to be smaller than a maximum value according to power management or compression time requirement. Delay jitter is eliminated. The present invention can be applied to MPEG-like video coding systems, such as H.264, MPEG4 and H.263.
