  • Publication number: 20190061205
    Abstract: This invention relates to a PU thin covers with waterproof and moisture permeable function, the hydrophilicity of the PEG structure can diffuse the water molecules from the inside of the PU then covers to the outside of the PU thin covers, and then the water molecules at the outer surface of the PU thin covers will be volatilize to achieve the effect of high moisture permeability. Since the PU thin covers containing PEG structure has no perforations, the external water and air cannot directly penetrate into the inside of the PU thin covers to achieve high waterproof effect. Moreover, the PU materials containing PEG structure can use various special manufacturing methods to make the PU thin covers have the best waterproofness, moisture permeability, structural strength, lightness, low cost, low pollution, high environmental value and various functions can be customized.

  • Patent number: 9698024
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method to increase breakdown voltage of a power device. A power device is formed on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer made up of a device wafer, a handle wafer, and an intermediate oxide layer. A recess is formed in a lower surface of the handle wafer to define a recessed region of the handle wafer. The recessed region of the handle wafer has a first handle wafer thickness, which is greater than zero. An un-recessed region of the handle wafer has a second handle wafer thickness, which is greater than the first handle wafer thickness. The first handle wafer thickness of the recessed region provides a breakdown voltage improvement for the power device.
