Publication number: 20240255639Abstract: A measurement method for measuring a position and a tilt angle of a target object includes the following steps. A pixel deviation between a first pixel and a second pixel of the target object is calculated. The pixel deviation is substituted into a curve of curve of tilt angle versus pixel deviation to obtain the tilt angle of the target object. A first target curve and a second target curve are selected according to the first pixel, the second pixel and the tilt angle. A zero-tilt angle is substituted into the first target curve and the second target curve, respectively, to obtain a pixel at the zero-tilt angle. The pixel at the zero-tilt angle is substituted into a position curve to obtain the position of the target object.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2023Publication date: August 1, 2024Inventors: Min HSU, Shih-Ying HSU

Publication number: 20050173096Abstract: A heat dissipating device includes a fluid container made of a heat conductive material and having a heat-dissipating wall opposite to a heat-absorbing wall, and a surrounding wall cooperating with the heat-absorbing and heat-dissipating walls so as to confine a sealed vapor chamber. A heat exchanger member is disposed in the vapor chamber, is in heat-conductive contact with the heat-absorbing wall, and contains an amount of working fluid capable of changing into fluid vapor that fills the vapor chamber upon absorbing heat from the heat-absorbing wall. The fluid vapor is capable of changing into fluid condensate when cooled due to contact with the heat-dissipating wall. A heat-conductive cover plate is mounted spacedly on the heat-dissipating wall of the fluid container, and cooperates with the heat-dissipating wall so as to confine a heat-dissipating passage therebetween such that heat absorbed by the heat-dissipating wall is dissipated via the heat-dissipating passage.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2004Publication date: August 11, 2005Inventors: Shih-Ying Hsu, Chung-Ter Yang

Patent number: 6326257Abstract: A method of fabricating a static random access memory. A stacked gate is formed on a substrate. A lightly doped drain region and a lightly doped source region are formed in the substrate. A thin spacer is then formed on a sidewall of the stacked gate on the lightly doped source region only. However, this thin spacer does not completely cover the lightly doped source and drain regions, that is, portions of the light doped source and drain regions are exposed. A thick spacer is then formed on the other sidewall of the stacked gate on the lightly doped drain region only. Using both the thin and the thick spacers as a mask, an ion implantation is performed to form a heavily doped source region and a heavily doped drain region in the substrate. A self-aligned silicide step is performed to form a salicide layer on the stacked gate, the source and the drain regions.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2001Date of Patent: December 4, 2001Assignee: United Microelectronics Corp.Inventor: Shih-Ying Hsu
