Patent number: 12073168Abstract: In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a method that includes removing portions of a substrate to form a continuous fin protruding from an upper surface of the substrate. A doping process is performed to selectively increase a dopant concentration of a first portion of the continuous fin. A first gate electrode is formed over a second portion of the continuous fin, and a second gate electrode is formed over a third portion of the continuous fin. The first portion of the continuous fin is between the second and third portions of the continuous fin. A dummy gate electrode is formed over the first portion of the continuous fin. Upper portions of the continuous fin that are arranged between the first gate electrode, the second gate electrode, and the dummy gate electrode are removed, and source/drain regions are formed between the first, the second, and the dummy gate electrodes.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2023Date of Patent: August 27, 2024Assignee: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Ltd.Inventors: Chun-Yen Lin, Bao-Ru Young, Tung-Heng Hsieh

Patent number: 5906346Abstract: A baseplate holder for conveniently securing a mother board on a baseplate has a -shaped profile, the top face thereof being formed with a hook or a threaded hole, both vertical sidewalls being each provided on the end with a horizontal projection for insertion into the respective stamped hole on the baseplate. If a threaded hole is formed on the top face of the holder, the edges of a hole formed on the respective vertical sidewall can be formed with at least a tongue extending inwardly to support the screw passing through the threaded hole.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 1997Date of Patent: May 25, 1999Assignee: Enlight CorporationInventors: Tung Yen Lin, Fan-Mao Tseng, Chen-Hsing Peng

Patent number: 5070566Abstract: A hybrid bridge construction comprises a pair of piers enclosed in the earth at a fixed predetermined distance apart with a cantilever section supported on each pier. Each cantilever section comprises one or more vertical towers with a pair of inner and outer rigid compression members fixed to and extending upwardly and outwardly from the base of each tower. Outer tension members are attached to the top portions of each tower and to upper end portions of the compression members. A suspension section interconnecting the cantilever sections comprises catenary cable members attached to the upper end portions of inner compression members. A road deck extends between the piers, and vertical suspender members extend between the cable members and the road deck.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 1990Date of Patent: December 10, 1991Assignee: T. Y. Lin InternationalInventors: Tung-Yen Lin, Philip Y. Chow

Patent number: 4373837Abstract: In a pier having a series of spaced-apart horizontal pile caps surmounting and connecting the supporting piles together transversely of said pier, there is an integrated one-piece deck supported atop the pile caps so that it can slide thereon. A series of prestressing tendons connect the deck to the pile caps so that when a wharf is struck by a ship, the lengthening and shortening of the tendons and the sliding friction between the deck and the pile caps absorbs the impact load.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 1981Date of Patent: February 15, 1983Assignee: T. Y. Lin InternationalInventors: Tung-Yen Lin, Philip Y. Chow

Patent number: 4313902Abstract: A prestressed concrete pressure-containment vessel having one or more cavities within its external shell. The cavities, whether cylindrical or other shape, are totally contained by prestressing tendons, which apply forces to contain various pressures within the structure. By permitting and actually inducing controlled cracking of the vessel in the outer portions of the thick shell wall, one embodiment of a pressure-containment vessel relieves stresses and enhances resistance to very high internal pressures and to stresses due to high internal temperatures and steep temperature gradients.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 1980Date of Patent: February 2, 1982Assignee: T. Y. Lin InternationalInventors: Tung-Yen Lin, Yue-Chyou Yang, Philip Y. Chow

Patent number: 4232495Abstract: A large, thin-shell cooling tower, a method for its erection, and novel precast units. Upon a foundation a series of angularly-extending columns is erected, and the columns are joined at their upper ends by a lower ring. Then a ribbed, waffle-like reinforced concrete wall is constructed to extend up from the lower ring and to provide a shell with a shape such as a hyperbolic paraboloid. The ribbed outer (or inner) surface strengthens the structure while enabling the thickness of the portions in between the ribs to be relatively thin. A series of vertically-spaced horizontal circumferential reinforcing bars or post-tensioning cables and a series of horizontally-spaced vertical or inclined bars or cables, are included in the wall. The wall is preferably made up from a series of precast units that are of novel structure in themselves. At the top of the wall is an upper ring joining the various elements together.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 1977Date of Patent: November 11, 1980Assignee: T. Y.
