Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a gate structure over a substrate. The integrated circuit includes a first silicon-containing material structure in a recess. The first silicon-containing material structure includes a first layer below a top surface of the substrate and in direct contact with the substrate. The first silicon-containing material structure includes a second layer over the first layer, wherein an entirety of the second layer is above the top surface of the substrate, a first region of the second layer closer to the gate structure is thinner than a second region of the second layer farther from the gate structure. The first silicon-containing material structure includes a third layer between the first layer and the second layer, wherein at least a portion of the third layer is below the top surface of the substrate.

Abstract: A cutting device angularly and removably attached to a heat-sealed edge of a food-contained polybag. The cutting device includes two integrally molded first and second parts. The first part is so formed that it has a tongue portion with two fixing pins raised from two outer comers of the tongue portion. A razor having a slant edge is clamped in locating grooves formed on top of the two fixing pins. The second part is formed with pin holes and a razor receiving groove corresponding to the fixing pins and the clamped razor. In use the cutting device is first positioned on the heat-sealed edge by folding the first part to the second part. Depressing the tongue portion of the first part will cause the razor to cut into the razor receiving groove on the second part and the polybag. Moving the cutting device sidewardly causes the razor to cut open the heat-sealed edge of the polybag.

Abstract: A needle protective means for prevention against stab and virus infection includes a front protector, a middle rubber sleeve, and a rear protector, being added to the conventional syringe, needle, and protective cap to ensure a used needle to be discarded not to unexpectedly harm any one. The front and the rear protectors fixedly receive the needle and the syringe, respectively, and the rubber sleeve binds and connects the front and the rear protectors together while it allows the front protector to be pulled forward to pass beyond the needle and thereby incases the same to prevent the point of the needle from stabbing others or spreading infectious virus.
