Abstract: Embodiments are directed to an electronic device that includes a cover and a haptic module positioned below the cover. The haptic module includes a substrate positioned below the cover and offset from the cover, a spacer positioned between the substrate and the cover and coupling the substrate to the cover, and a piezoelectric element positioned on a surface of the substrate and offset from the cover to define a gap between the piezoelectric element and the cover. The electronic device can also include a sensor coupled to the cover and configured to detect an input, and a processing unit operably coupled to the piezoelectric element and configured to cause the piezoelectric element to deflect the cover in response to the sensor detecting the input.

Abstract: Semiconductor die assemblies with sidewall protection, and associated methods and systems are disclosed. In one embodiment, a semiconductor die assembly includes an interface die with a low-k dielectric layer and a stack of semiconductor dies attached to the interface die. The semiconductor die assembly also includes a molding structure that protects sidewalls of the interface die and sidewalls of the semiconductor dies. In some embodiments, the semiconductor die assembly includes a passivation layer attached to the interface die opposite to the stack of semiconductor dies. Further, the passivation layer may include a sidewall surface coplanar with an outer sidewall surface of the molding structure. The passivation layer may include a ledge underneath the molding structure, which is uncovered by the interface die. The semiconductor die assembly may include a NCF material at the sidewalls of the stack of semiconductor dies, where the molding structure surrounds the NCF material.

Abstract: A Y-type gauze positioning rod is adapted to be disposed in a Y-type gauze so as to position the Y-type gauze to an affected region. The Y-type gauze positioning rod includes a Y-type flexible body having a holder and two supporting branches. The two supporting branches are connected to the holder and separated from each other. A Y-type gauze positioning assembly is further provided.

Abstract: A method for producing polyploid plants of orchids includes the steps of: providing a protocorm or protocom-like body (PLB) of an orchid, the protocorm or PLB having an upper portion with a growing point and a lower portion without any growing point; cutting the protocorm or PLB approximately at a point of half height to separate the upper portion; subculturing the lower portion of the protocorm or PLB in an inducing medium, and putting a cut surface of the lower portion of the protocorm or PLB to face upward so that one or more next-generation PLBs grow from the cut surface of the lower portion. The method characterized in using no antimicrotubule agent can simplify the entire process of orchid polyploidy breeding, and can be used in mass-production of the stable polyploid plants.
