  • Publication number: 20240135043
    Abstract: An information handling system includes a printed circuit board, a screw, and a processor. The printed circuit board includes a through hole via. The through hole via includes top and bottom sections plated with a conductive plating material, and a middle section without any conductive plating material. The screw in physical communication with the top, middle, and bottom sections of the through hole via in the printed circuit board. The processor determines whether an electrical circuit is formed between the screw, the top section of the through hole via, and the bottom section of the through hole via. Based on the determination of the electrical circuit being formed, the processor provides an indication that no intrusion has been made into the information handling system.

  • Publication number: 20200232119
    Abstract: A method of forming a single-crystal group-III nitride is provided in the present invention. In some embodiments, the method includes the following steps. First, a molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is formed on a remote substrate. Then, the MoS2 is transferred onto a substrate. Next, a sputtering operation is performed to epitaxially grow a single-crystal group-III nitride layer on the MoS2, so as to form the single-crystal group-III nitride layer on the substrate such as a Si substrate or a flexible substrate.

  • Patent number: 10261353
    Abstract: A display device includes a supporting frame, a display panel, an optical film assembly, and a light-penetrated adhesive member. The supporting frame includes a first supporting portion, and the display panel is disposed on the supporting frame. The display panel includes a pixel region and a non-pixel region, and the non-pixel region is disposed outside of the pixel region. The optical film assembly is partially disposed between the first supporting portion and the display panel. The light-penetrated adhesive member is disposed between the first supporting portion of the supporting frame and the optical film assembly. The light-penetrated adhesive member includes a first portion disposed corresponding to the non-pixel region and a second portion disposed corresponding to the pixel region. The configuration can achieve the narrow border design, provide a sufficient structural strength, or improve the light leakage or shadow issue at the edge of the active area.
