Abstract: The present invention relates to a fuel cartridge structure with sensor apparatus, comprising a main fuel solution tank provided with a casing with accommodation space, the accommodation space being used for storing the fuel solution; and a sensor apparatus mainly having two sensor components, the two sensor components being disposed on exterior surface or in the structure of the casing of the main fuel solution tank for achieving the objective of measurement.

Abstract: An active pixel sensor is proposed by the invention. The position of the gate of the reset transistor is kept away from the interface of the isolation region and the silicon so that the depletion region does not reach the isolation. Accordingly, dark currents caused by isolation region damages can be avoided.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a photo diode first involves providing a substrate. A doping area is then formed on the substrate. Afterwards, a dielectric layer, and a first poly-silicon layer are formed on the substrate. An opening is then formed to expose a surface of the doping area. A second poly-silicon layer is formed on the first poly-silicon layer and within the opening. The second poly-silicon layer is patterned to form a wire, while the first poly-silicon layer is patterned to form a gate. Finally, a source/drain is formed.

Abstract: A new and improved insert ring for a wafer support inside a processing chamber for the processing, particularly dry etching, of semiconductor wafer substrates. The insert ring includes a generally convex inner surface which faces the wafer support and defines a gap or berline wall between the insert ring and the wafer support. In one embodiment, the convex inner surface is convexly-tapered. In another embodiment, the convex inner surface is convexly-curved. Throughout etching of multiple successive substrates on the wafer support, accumulations of polymer material on the inner surface of the insert ring are prevented or at least substantially reduced. Consequently, polymer peeling is eliminated or reduced and operational intervals for the processing chamber or system between periodic maintenance or cleanings, are prolonged.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a self-aligned guard ring of a photo diode. The method includes defining a photo diode region on a semiconductor substrate and an isolation matter surrounding the photo diode region, forming a photo sensor in the photo diode region, covering a first mask on the photo sensor, forming a spacer around the first mask, covering a second mask on an edge of the isolation matter, and utilizing the first mask, the second mask, and the spacer to form a self-aligned guard ring surrounding the photo sensor.
