  • Publication number: 20250374589
    Abstract: A semiconductor device including an active region, a gate dielectric layer, a gate electrode, and a source/drain region is provided. The active region is formed in a substrate. The gate dielectric layer is located on the active region and has an extension area on opposite sides of the gate dielectric layer respectively. The gate electrode is located on the gate dielectric layer and exposes the two extension areas. The source/drain region is located in the active region on one side of the gate dielectric layer.

  • Publication number: 20240231151
    Abstract: A display device includes a light source module, a housing, a display panel, a circuit board and a first flexible substrate. The housing includes a base plate, a sidewall and a support part. The base plate is below the light source module. The sidewall forms an accommodation space for the light source module. The support part is connected to the sidewall and extends away from the base plate, wherein the support part has a recess recessed towards the base plate. The display panel is above the light source module and the support part. The circuit board is below the support part, and the support part is located between the display panel and the circuit board. The first flexible substrate connects the light source module to the circuit board through the recess, wherein one side of the recess supports the display panel, and another side supports the circuit board.

  • Patent number: 10852469
    Abstract: A display panel includes an inner frame, a backlight module, an outer frame, and a light modulation module. The inner frame includes an inner surface forming a light guide plate accommodating area in a surrounding manner. The backlight module includes a light guide plate and a first optical film. The light guide plate is disposed in the light guide plate accommodating area, and the first optical film is carried on the inner frame. The outer frame includes a bottom portion and a sidewall portion that are connected to each other, in which the bottom portion and the sidewall portion form a receiving area, and the inner frame and the backlight module are located in the receiving area. The light modulation module is disposed on the first optical film. An orthogonal projection of the light modulation module in a vertical direction completely falls within the light guide plate accommodating area.

  • Patent number: 7016410
    Abstract: A method for determining quantization numbers for each macro block in one video segment having a prescribed capacity is disclosed. The quantization numbers determine how much data will be preserved for that macro block. The method begins by determining a level of complexity for each macro block. Next, initial quantization numbers are chosen for the macro blocks by choosing the largest values possible without exceeding the prescribed capacity of the video segment. Final quantization numbers are selected based on respective ones of the initial quantization numbers proportioned according to the level of complexity for that macro block. The final quantization numbers may be increased or decreased so that the capacity of the video segment is maximized but not exceeded.
