  • PROCESS OF PHYSICAL VAPOR DEPOSITING MIRROR LAYER WITH IMPROVED REFLECTIVITY
    Publication number: 20070037393
    Abstract: A process of physical vapor depositing mirror layer with improved reflectivity is disclosed. A wafer is loaded into a PVD tool comprising a degas chamber, a Ti/TiN sputter deposition chamber, a cooling chamber, and an aluminum sputter deposition chamber. A wafer degas process is first performed within the degas chamber. The wafer is then transferred to the Ti/TiN sputter deposition chamber and deposition sputtering a layer of titanium onto the wafer. The wafer is transferred to the cooling chamber and gas cooling the wafer temperature down to 40-50° C. The wafer is then transferred to the aluminum sputter deposition chamber and deposition sputtering a layer of aluminum onto the wafer at 40-50° C. with a backside gas turned off. The deposited layer of aluminum over the wafer has a reflectivity of about 0.925 at wavelength of around 380 nm.

  • Multiplier-based processor-in-memory architectures for image and graphics processing
    Patent number: 7167890
    Abstract: A Procesor-In-Memory (PIM) includes a digital accelerator for image and graphics processing. The digital accelerator is based on an ALU having multipliers for processing combinations of bits smaller than those in the input data (e.g., 4×4 adders if the input data are 8-bit numbers). The ALU implements various arithmetic algorithms for addition, multiplication, and other operations. A secondary processing logic includes adders in series and parallel to permit vector operations as well as operations on longer scalars. A self-repairing ALU is also disclosed.

  • Screw machine
    Patent number: 7153111
    Abstract: A screw machine (10) has a rotor housing (12) defining overlapping bores (12-1, 12-2). Female rotor (14) is located in bore (12-1) and male rotor (16) is located in bore (12-2). A wear resistant coating is deposited on the tips (14-1, 16-1) of the rotors. A conformable coating is deposited on the valleys (14-2, 16-2) of the rotors. A conformable coating is depsoited on the surface of the bores coacting with the rotors.

  • Breaker for protecting electric facilities
    Patent number: 7132911
    Abstract: A breaker includes a housing (10) having two terminals (11, 12), two bars (17, 18) electrically coupled to the terminals (11, 12), an arm (30) supported in the housing (10) and movable to engage with the bars (17, 18) to electrically couple the terminals (11, 12) together. A control device (4) may control the arm (30) to engage with the bars (17, 18), and includes a lever (50) to maintain the arm (30) in engagement with the bars (17, 18). A spring (33) may bias the arm (30) away from the bars (17, 18), and another spring (53) may be engaged with the lever (50) to bias and disengage the lever (50) from the arm (30).

  • Method for manufacturing a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor sensor
    Patent number: 7115438
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor sensor is provided. The present method provides a semiconductor structure including a plurality of conductors thereon. An inter-metal dielectric layer is formed on the conductors. A silicon nitride film is applied on the inter-metal dielectric layer. An oxide layer is formed on the silicon nitride film. The oxide layer, the silicon nitride film and the inter-metal dielectric are etched to expose portions of the conductors. The oxide layer and the exposed conductors are cleaned in a cleaning step later.
