  • Patent number: 7961270
    Abstract: A display device and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The display device includes a light guide, a light source, and a brightness enhancement film (BEF), and a dual brightness enhancement film (DBEF). The light guide has a first edge along a first direction and a second edge adjacent to the first edge corresponding to the light source. The BEF is disposed on the light guide and has a plurality of prisms along a second direction which rotates from 0 to 90 degrees with respect to the first direction. The DBEF has a transmission axis along a third direction which also rotates from 0 to 90 degrees with respect to the first direction.

  • Publication number: 20080133990
    Abstract: Disclosed is a scan test data compression method and decoding apparatus for multiple-scan-chain designs. The apparatus comprises a on-chip decoder connected to a tester. The decoder includes a decoding buffer configured as a multilayer architecture, a controller, and a switching box for receiving a shift signal or a copy signal. The decoding buffer is used to store decoded test data. While the decoder decodes the encoded data, it transmits control signals to both the decoding buffer and the switching box from the controller, and sends the decoded data to scan chains of a CUT for testing through the decoding buffer. This invention has the advantages of simple encoding method, high compression rate, low power consumption in testing, and without the fault coverage loss.

  • Patent number: 6759284
    Abstract: A method for polysilicon crystallization by simultaneous laser and rapid thermal annealing is disclosed. In the method, a substrate that has an amorphous silicon layer on top is first provided and positioned on a conveyor situated inside a temperature-controlled chamber. The temperature-controlled chamber is equipped with a window in a top wall that is substantially transparent to thermal and laser energy. A beam of thermal energy and simultaneously a beam of laser energy merged with the thermal energy is then directed through the window onto a top surface of the substrate to convert an amorphous silicon film into a polysilicon film.

  • Publication number: 20020133451
    Abstract: A dynamic price changing web marketing system, which comprises a commodity database, a commodity data providing module, and a trade processing module. The commodity database stores at least one commodity datum. The commodity providing module provides commodity data in a specific format. The trade processing module receives consumer's order for purchasing commodities. It is further characterized in that it contains a dynamic price changing module that gradually lowers the commodity price from an initial price. The commodity data providing module immediately provides the lowered price to the consumer. The trade processing module receives the consumer's order for purchasing the commodity when the price is lowered to a specific value. The invention also discloses a corresponding dynamic price changing web marketing method.

  • Publication number: 20020111871
    Abstract: A method for implementing contract stores on a network. This method determines whether a consumer is a member of a specific group according to the data entered by the consumer when he logs in. When the consumer is a member of a specific group, he is viewed as a special member and a special price is provided when he quotes the price. The invention also provides a system for implementing this method.
