  • Patent number: 11949015
    Abstract: A method includes following steps. A semiconductor fin is formed extending from a substrate. A gate structure is formed extending across the semiconductor fin. Recesses are etched in the semiconductor fin. Source/drain epitaxial structures are formed in the recesses in the semiconductor fin. Formation of each of the source/drain epitaxial structures comprises performing a first epitaxy growth process to form a bar-shaped epitaxial structure in one of the recesses, and performing a second epitaxy growth process to form a cladding epitaxial layer cladding on the bar-shaped epitaxial structure. The bar-shaped epitaxial structure has a lower phosphorous concentration than the cladding epitaxial layer.

    Abstract: A pixel array substrate includes a first substrate, pixel units, data lines, scan lines, constant voltage lines, a constant voltage source, a constant voltage pad, and a conductive pattern. The first substrate has pixel regions and a peripheral region surrounding the pixel regions. The conductive pattern includes conductive lines interlaced with each other to form a net and a conductive frame that surrounds and is electrically coupled to the conductive lines. The conductive frame is in electrical contact with the constant voltage pad within the peripheral region. Each pixel region is defined by two adjacent scan lines and two adjacent data lines. A portion of one of the constant voltage lines located completely within each of the pixel regions is in electrical contact with one of the conductive lines within the pixel region. An OLED display including the pixel array substrate and another OLED are also provided.
