Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a substrate, a first gate structure and a second gate structure disposed over the substrate, and an isolation feature extending through the substrate and disposed between the first gate structure and the second gate structure. A top surface of the isolation feature is above a topmost surface of the first gate structure.

Abstract: The pharmacokinetic profile of the SGLT2 inhibitor bexagliflozin can be improved by formulating it as an extended release tablet. Compared with standard immediate-release dosage forms these tablets can permit a lower peak plasma concentration, Cmax, while maintaining plasma concentrations at therapeutic levels for a desired period. This can be used, for instance, to administer lower doses while still providing the same pharmacological effect.

Abstract: A device includes a transistor, a backside via, and a pair of sidewall spacers. The transistor includes a gate structure, a channel layer surrounded by the gate structure, and a first source/drain structure and a second source/drain structure connected to the channel layer. The backside via is under and connected to the first source/drain structure and includes a first portion, a second portion between the first portion and the first source/drain structure, and a third portion tapering from the first portion to the second portion in a cross-sectional view. The pair of sidewall spacers are on opposite sidewalls of the second portion of the backside via but not on opposite sidewalls of the first portion of the backside via.

Abstract: This application provides an electronic device, to reduce a probability that a screen stalling phenomenon. A timing control unit sends one first pulse of a tearing effect signal every a first preset time T1. The timing control unit sends S second pulses of the tearing effect signal when a transceiver unit does not receive an Nth frame of display data within a preset time. The processing unit receives the Nth frame of display data in the (N+1)th frame, and controls, based on the Nth frame of display data, the display to display an Nth frame of image.

Abstract: A power saving device is adapted to be incorporated in a cableless computer mouse for reducing power consumption thereof. The power saving device includes a wheel rotatable in unison with an encoding disk of the mouse and at least one pair of conductive contact members respectively connected to a power source and a microprocessor. The contact members have engaging sections forming a normally open loop. The wheel forms a plurality of alternating conductive and nonconductive sections engaging with the engaging sections of the contact members. The conductive sections are electrically connected to each other and may short the contact members when simultaneously engaging with the engaging sections. A control signal is thus generated and applied to the microprocessor of the mouse. The microprocessor may force the mouse into an idle condition for reducing power consumption after having not received the control signal for a predetermined period of time.
