  • Patent number: 7378864
    Abstract: A test apparatus includes one handler connected to a tester and one test board divided into two or more sites or two or more test boards. Since only the sites on the test board (or test boards) need be duplicated, rather than the loading lanes or sorters of the handler, the test apparatus can be conveniently compact. Further, while testing semiconductor devices on one site or one test board, semiconductor devices in another site or on another test board can be sorted according to the test result. This enables the reduction or elimination of tester idle time to optimize the efficiency of the test apparatus.

  • Patent number: 7361943
    Abstract: A Si-based diode (10, 10?, 100) is formed by epitaxially depositing a Si-based diode structure on a silicon substrate. The Si-based diode structure includes a Si-based pn junction (16, 16?, 18, 18?, 30, 32, 160, 161) having a backward diode current-voltage characteristic in which the forward tunneling current is substantially smaller than the backward tunneling current at comparable voltage levels. In some embodiments, the Si-based pn junction includes at least one non-silicon or silicon alloy layer such as at least one SiGe layer (16, 16?, 160, 161). In some embodiments, at least one delta doping (30, 32) is disposed on the silicon substrate in or near the pn junction, that together with the Si-based pn junction define an electrical junction having the backward diode current-voltage characteristic. A large area detector array may include a plurality of such Si-based diodes (10, 10?, 100).

  • Publication number: 20070047878
    Abstract: Provided is an optical module used in a communication system employing a radio over fiber (ROF) technology delivering a radio frequency (RF) signal through an optical fiber. The optical module includes: an optical device; a signal line for transporting a radio frequency (RF) signal input from an external circuit to the optical device; and a resistor separately disposed from the signal line and having one end connected with the optical device, wherein the input impedance seen from the signal line is matched by the resistor. A bias voltage supplied to operate the optical device is applied through an inductor connected to the signal line between the optical device and a filter. Here, the filter formed by a pattern of the signal line prevents the bias voltage from being supplied to the external circuit. In order to amplify the RF signal input from the external circuit, an amplifier may be connected between the external circuit and the filter.
