  • Patent number: 12237390
    Abstract: Methods and semiconductor structures are provided. A method according to the present disclosure includes receiving a workpiece that includes a first gate structure disposed over a first active region, a second gate structure disposed over a second active region, a first gate spacer extending along a sidewall of the first gate structure and disposed at least partially over a top surface of the first active region, a second gate spacer extending along a sidewall of the second gate structure and disposed at least partially over a top surface of the second active region, and a source/drain feature. The method also includes treating a portion of the first gate spacer and a portion of the second gate spacer with a remote radical of hydrogen or oxygen, removing the treated portions, and after the removal, depositing a metal fill material over the source/drain feature.

  • Patent number: 10251204
    Abstract: A method for quick configuration of Wi-Fi connection of output device is provided. The method includes following steps of: retrieving a plurality of access point data respectively corresponding to a plurality of Wi-Fi access points based on Wi-Fi protocol at a computer device; selecting one of the plurality of the access point data for generating a corresponded configuration data; establishing a heterogeneous connection with an output device based on a heterogeneous protocol; transferring the configuration data to the output device via the heterogeneous connection; and, establishing a Wi-Fi connection with the corresponded Wi-Fi access point based on Wi-Fi protocol according to the received configuration data at the output device. Therefore, the output device can be effectively connected to the designated Wi-Fi access point, the configuration of Wi-Fi connection can be simplified, and the configuration time can be reduced.
