  • Publication number: 20240154015
    Abstract: A method includes forming a first fin and a second fin protruding from a frontside of a substrate, forming a gate stack over the first and second fins, forming a dielectric feature dividing the gate stack into a first segment engaging the first fin and a second segment engaging the second fin, and growing a first epitaxial feature on the first fin and a second epitaxial feature on the second fin. The dielectric feature is disposed between the first and second epitaxial features. The method also includes performing an etching process on a backside of the substrate to form a backside trench, and forming a backside via in the backside trench. The backside trench exposes the dielectric feature and the first and second epitaxial features. The backside via straddles the dielectric feature and is in electrical connection with the first and second epitaxial features.

  • Publication number: 20240113237
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a semiconductor structure and a method of manufacturing the same. The semiconductor structure includes a sensing device, a solar cell, and an interconnecting structure. The solar cell is disposed above the sensing device and is electrically connected to the sensing device. The interconnecting structure is disposed between the sensing device and the solar cell and has a first surface facing the solar cell and a second surface facing the sensing devices. The interconnecting structure comprises a first energy storage component and a second energy storage component. The first energy storage component is disposed closer to the first surface of the interconnecting structure than the second energy storage component.

  • Patent number: 10314214
    Abstract: A vapor chamber with electromagnetic shielding function is for dissipating the heat generated by an electronic component. The vapor chamber includes a capillary structure, a support structure, and a working fluid. The vapor chamber includes an extension portion and a frame, and the extension portion extends from the main body of the vapor chamber and has a first coupling structure. The frame has side walls to surround the electronic component in a plane, and a second coupling structure is disposed on each of the side walls. The first coupling structure is engaged with the second coupling structure, so that the vapor chamber detachably covers the electronic component to perform the electromagnetic shielding function.

  • Patent number: 9261889
    Abstract: A method for controlling the system power is applied in an electronic device. The method includes detecting a sensing temperature of a system-on chip of the electronic device, comparing the sensing temperature with a presetting temperature, capturing a detected signal produced by a gravity sensor of the electronic device when determining the sensing temperature is greater than the presetting temperature, and lowering the surface temperature of the electronic device by setting the power limitation of the system-on chip to be a first preset power corresponded to a first setting status when the detected signal indicates that the electronic device is in the first setting status.

  • Patent number: 7619880
    Abstract: A drainage structure is provided for a portable electronic device, such as a portable computer. The drainage structure includes an inclination formed on a top surface of a body of the portable electronic device to support a keyboard device in an inclined manner so that water spilled on the keyboard device or the top surface can be expelled out of the electronic device by gravity. If desired, height adjusting units can be arranged between the keyboard device and the top surface of the body to selectively maintain the keyboard in a horizontal condition. A drain hole or groove can be selectively formed in the body of the electronic device to facilitate drainage of water.
