Publication number: 20240096893Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate. The semiconductor device includes a fin that is formed over the substrate and extends along a first direction. The semiconductor device includes a gate structure that straddles the fin and extends along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The semiconductor device includes a first source/drain structure coupled to a first end of the fin along the first direction. The gate structure includes a first portion protruding toward the first source/drain structure along the first direction. A tip edge of the first protruded portion is vertically above a bottom surface of the gate structure.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company LimitedInventors: Shih-Yao Lin, Chao-Cheng Chen, Chih-Han Lin, Ming-Ching Chang, Wei-Liang Lu, Kuei-Yu Kao

Patent number: 10301845Abstract: An electronic system with an electronically controlled electronic locking mechanism is provided. The system includes a first electronic device having a first part, a first fastening element, a second part, and an electronic locking element. The first fastening element is pivotally connected to the first part and rotates relatively to the first part. The second part includes a fastening portion. The electronic locking element is disposed at the first part, electronically connected to the first electronic device, and connected to the first fastening element. When the fastening portion of the second part contacts and fastens to the first fastening element of the first part, the first electronic device supplies power to the electronic locking element, and thus the electronic locking element fixes the first fastening element to lock the first part and the second part together.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2014Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC.Inventors: Yuan-An Hsu, San-Feng Lin, Mei-Fang Chou, Wei-Cheng Kao, Jia-Hong Lu, Chong-Xian Wu
