Abstract: Example implementations described herein include a laser source and associated methods of operation that can balance or reduce uneven beam profile problem and even improve plasma heating efficiency to enhance conversion efficiency and intensity for extreme ultraviolet radiation generation. The laser source described herein generates an auxiliary laser beam to augment a pre-pulse laser beam and/or a main-pulse laser beam, such that uneven beam profiles may be corrected and/or compensated. This may improve an intensity of the laser source and also improve an energy distribution from the laser source to a droplet of a target material, effective to increase an overall operating efficiency of the laser source.

Abstract: A semiconductor package includes a base comprising a top surface and a bottom surface that is opposite to the top surface; a first semiconductor chip mounted on the top surface of the base in a flip-chip manner; a second semiconductor chip stacked on the first semiconductor chip and electrically coupled to the base by wire bonding; an in-package heat dissipating element comprising a dummy silicon die adhered onto the second semiconductor chip by using a high-thermal conductive die attach film; and a molding compound encapsulating the first semiconductor die, the second semiconductor die, and the in-package heat dissipating element.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography system including a radiation source and an EUV control system integrated with the radiation source. The EUV control system includes a 3-dimensional diagnostic module (3DDM) designed to collect a laser beam profile of a laser beam from the radiation source in a 3-dimensional (3D) mode, an analysis module designed to analyze the laser beam profile, a database designed to store the laser beam profile, and an EUV control module designed to adjust the radiation source. The analysis module is coupled with the database and the EUV control module. The database is coupled with the 3DDM and the analysis module. The EUV control module is coupled with the analysis module and the radiation source.

Abstract: A lightweight steel construction includes a plurality of beams and rafters. Each of the beams includes two opposite C-shaped steels. Two ends of the two C-shaped steels are respectively positioned by two first positioning members in a length direction of the C-shaped steels. Several beams can be assembled with each other via the first positioning members to be formed as a crossbeam and a column of a building. Each of the rafters includes a C-shaped steel. Two ends of the C-shaped steel are respectively positioned by two second positioning members in the length direction of the C-shaped steel. Several rafters can be positioned between adjacent beams via the second positioned members to be formed as a floor surface, a wall surface, and a roof of the supporting frame of the building.

The method includes steps of: storing a plurality of panel parameters respectively corresponding to different types of panels to a non-volatile memory; detecting a status signal of a predetermined pin, the status signal corresponding to the type of the display panel; selecting one panel parameter from the panel parameters according to the status signal; and generating an output signal according to the selected panel parameter by the controller.

Abstract: A rail assembly is adapted for mounting a data storage device in a computer enclosure. The rail assembly comprises a rail and a conductive fastener attached to the rail for fixing the rail to a data storage device. The rail comprises a body and a latch so connected with the body as to be capable of a flexing movement relative to the body for engaging with a computer enclosure. The body defines a number of pairs of through holes and a first slot. The fastener comprises a pair of tabs for engagingly extending into a selected pair of the through holes of the rail and a pair of posts for extending through the first slot of the rail to securely engaging with the data storage device. The fastener can mount the rail to the data storage device with the rail attached at a number of different positions relative to the data storage device.
