Publication number: 20250053039Abstract: An E-paper display panel including an E-paper display layer, a first substrate, a pixel array layer, a common electrode layer, and a driving circuit is provided. The first substrate is disposed at a first side of the E-paper display layer. The pixel array substrate is disposed between the first substrate and the E-paper display layer and includes touch electrodes and driving pixels arranged in an array. Each driving pixel includes a first pixel electrode and a second pixel electrode. The touch electrodes, the first pixel electrode, and the second pixel electrode are overlapped with each other. The common electrode layer is disposed at a second side of the E-paper display layer. The first side is opposite to the second side. The driving circuit is in signal communication with the common electrode layer and the pixel array layer. The touch electrodes are individually in signal communication with the driving circuit.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2024Publication date: February 13, 2025Applicant: E Ink Holdings Inc.Inventors: Chia-Ming Hsieh, Chi-Mao Hung, Sung-Hui Huang, Chuen-Jen Liu, Liang-Yu Yan, Pei Ju Wu, Po-Chun Chuang, Che-Sheng Chang, Wen-Chung Yang

Patent number: 11063156Abstract: A memory device and a manufacturing method of the memory device are provided. The manufacturing method includes steps below. A plurality of stack structures including a tunneling dielectric layer and a floating gate are formed on a substrate. A liner material layer including a nitride liner layer is formed on the substrate. A top surface of the nitride liner layer is lower than a top surface of the floating gate and is higher than a top surface of the tunneling dielectric layer. An isolation material layer covering the liner material layer is formed on the substrate. The isolation material layer is oxidized, and a portion of the isolation material layer is removed to form an isolation structure. An inter-gate dielectric layer covering the stack structures and the isolation structure is formed on the substrate. A control gate covering the inter-gate dielectric layer is formed on the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2020Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing CorporationInventors: Wen Chung Yang, Shih Hsi Chen, Wei-Chang Lin
