Publication number: 20240113166Abstract: A method for fabricating semiconductor devices includes forming channel regions over a substrate. The channel regions, in parallel with one another, extend along a first lateral direction. Each channel region includes at least a respective pair of epitaxial structures. The method includes forming a gate structure over the channel regions, wherein the gate structure extends along a second lateral direction. The method includes removing, through a first etching process, a portion of the gate structure that was disposed over a first one of the channel regions. The method includes removing, through a second etching process, a portion of the first channel region. The second etching process includes one silicon etching process and one silicon oxide deposition process. The method includes removing, through a third etching process controlled based on a pulse signal, a portion of the substrate that was disposed below the removed portion of the first channel region.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Ltd.Inventors: Tzu-Ging Lin, Chun-Liang Lai, Yun-Chen Wu, Ya-Yi Tsai, Shu-Yuan Ku, Shun-Hui Yang

Patent number: 11911031Abstract: This disclosure relates to a surgical tool configured for holding an implant includes an inner rod and a sleeve. The inner rod includes a rod portion and a holding portion. The holding portion is located at one end of the rod portion and has a first accommodation space configured for accommodating at least part of the implant. The sleeve includes a sleeving portion and a retaining portion. The sleeving portion is slidably sleeved on the rod portion of the inner rod. The retaining portion is located at one end of the sleeving portion and selectively presses against the holding portion. The inner rod further includes at least one fin portion protruded from the holding portion and located in the first accommodation space for being inserted into at least one slot of the implant.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH INSTITUTEInventors: Fang-Chieh Chang, Pei-I Tsai, Shu-Fen Yeh, Kuo-Yi Yang, Chih-Chieh Huang
