  • Publication number: 20240194767
    Abstract: Semiconductor structures and methods of forming the same are provided. A method according to the present disclosure includes forming a stack of epitaxial layers over a substrate, forming a first fin-like structure and a second fin-like structure from the stack, forming an isolation feature between the first fin-like structure and the second fin-like structure, forming a cladding layer over the first fin-like structure and the second fin-like structure, conformally depositing a first dielectric layer over the cladding layer, depositing a second dielectric layer over the first dielectric layer, planarizing the first dielectric layer and the second dielectric layer until the cladding layer are exposed, performing an etch process to etch the second dielectric layer to form a helmet recess, performing a trimming process to trim the first dielectric layer to widen the helmet recess, and depositing a helmet feature in the widened helmet recess.

  • Publication number: 20240120376
    Abstract: Semiconductor structures and methods are provided. A semiconductor structure according to the present disclosure includes a first active region extending lengthwise along a first direction and having a first width along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, a second active region extending lengthwise along the first direction and having a second width along the second direction, and an epitaxial feature sandwiched between the first active region and the second active region along the first direction. The first width is greater than the second width.

  • Publication number: 20220147114
    Abstract: A portable information handling system supports a flexible OLED display film over housing portions rotationally coupled by a hinge by folding the OLED display film over the hinge. Hinge brackets that couple to the housing portions each have a helical member that extends into an associated helical guide of the hinge main body. Hinge bracket rotation translates through the helical guides for synchronized housing rotation. The hinge main body has first and second circular portions extending along its length to define first and second rotation axes about which the hinge brackets pivot so that the display film has space to fold in the closed position.

  • Patent number: 9822567
    Abstract: A hinge assembly includes a guiding unit connected between and slidable relative to first and second hinge units along arcuate lines. The second hinge unit has a pivot shaft extending through first and second rings, and a resilient washer. The second ring is rotatable on the pivot shaft relative to the first ring and has a radial extension member telescopically connected to a pivotal arm of the first hinge unit. The resilient washer pushes the second ring against the first ring. A protrusion of the first ring slides along a contact surface of the second ring having a groove so that a variable friction toque is created against relative movement of the first and second hinge units.
