  • Patent number: 10263097
    Abstract: Methods of semiconductor arrangement formation are provided. A method of forming the semiconductor arrangement includes forming a first nucleus on a substrate in a trench or between dielectric pillars on the substrate. Forming the first nucleus includes applying a first source material beam at a first angle relative to a top surface of the substrate and concurrently applying a second source material beam at a second angle relative to the top surface of the substrate. A first semiconductor column is formed from the first nucleus by rotating the substrate while applying the first source material beam and the second source material beam. Forming the first semiconductor column in the trench or between the dielectric pillars using the first source material beam and the second source material beam restricts the formation of the first semiconductor column to a single direction.

  • Publication number: 20110198134
    Abstract: A light pen. The light pen includes a housing, a base, a nib structure, a switch and a light sensor. The base is movably or deformably connected to the housing. The base has a peripheral portion and a through hole substantially surrounded by the peripheral portion. The nib structure is disposed on the base. The switch is disposed between the base and the housing. The light sensor is disposed in the housing for receiving a light signal transmitted along a light-receiving path into the housing. The light-receiving path is extended through the first through hole. Wherein, when no force is applied on the nib structure, the base is away from the switch without triggering the switch; and when a force is applied on the nib structure, the base is moved or deformed to contact the switch, so that the switch is triggered.
