  • Publication number: 20080315433
    Abstract: A self-aligned wafer or chip structure including a substrate, at least one first concave base, at least one second concave base, at least one connecting structure and at least one bump is provided. The substrate has a first surface and a second surface, and at least one pad is formed on the first surface. The first concave base is disposed on the first surface and electrically connected to the pad. The second concave base is disposed on the second surface. The connecting structure passes through the substrate and disposed between the first and second concave bases so as to be electrically connected to the first and second concave bases. The bump is filled in the second concave base and protrudes out of the second surface.

  • Publication number: 20080284860
    Abstract: An image-stabilizing driving device is proposed, including a slidable block coupled to an image sensor, a flat surface acoustic wave actuator for contacting with and driving the slidable block to move on a surface contacted therewith, and a contactless force action unit having a first and a second contactless force action layers. The first contactless force action layer is formed between the slidable block and the image sensor and the second contactless force action layer is formed on a bottom surface of the flat surface acoustic wave actuator, thereby providing preload force for the slidable block to contact with flat surface ascoustic wave actuator so as to form a thin image-stabilizing driving device.
