  • Publication number: 20240088225
    Abstract: A method includes forming a gate stack on a first portion of a semiconductor substrate, removing a second portion of the semiconductor substrate on a side of the gate stack to form a recess, growing a semiconductor region starting from the recess, implanting the semiconductor region with an impurity, and performing a melt anneal on the semiconductor region. At least a portion of the semiconductor region is molten during the melt anneal.

  • Patent number: 8278078
    Abstract: A method for culturing the yeast for enhancing pentitol production is provided. The yeast cultured according to the present disclosure is Pichia stipitis. Application of the yeast in pentitol production by fermention of the lignocellulosic hydrolysate or the xylose-to-pentitol production yield can be enhanced 3 to 6 times from the non-detoxified or the overliming-processed lignocellulosic hydrolysate.

  • Publication number: 20110177572
    Abstract: A hydrolysate-adapted yeast, Pichia stipitis INER 1128, is cultivated according to the present invention. The adapted yeast can effectively convert xylose into ethanol in lignocellulosic hydrolysate, which is not even detoxified. Well ethanol yield is obtained while xylose is not wasted and thus cost is reduced.
