  • Patent number: 11699771
    Abstract: A non-diffusion type photodiode is described and has: a substrate, a buffer layer, a light absorption layer, an intermediate layer, and a multiplication/window layer. The buffer layer is disposed on the substrate. The light absorption layer is disposed on the buffer layer. The intermediate layer is disposed on the light absorption layer and has a first boundary, wherein the intermediate layer is an I-type semiconductor layer or a graded refractive index layer. The multiplication/window layer is disposed on the intermediate layer and has a second boundary, wherein in a top view, the first boundary surrounds the second boundary, and a distance between the first boundary and the second boundary is greater than or equal to 1 micrometer. The non-diffusion type photodiode can reduce generation of dark current.

  • Patent number: 10737581
    Abstract: An adaptive power supply system for an unmanned vehicle and an operation method thereof are provided. The adaptive power supply system includes an adaptive power supply, a battery, a sensing circuit, and a power dispatch controller. The output terminal of the adaptive power supply powers the load circuit of the unmanned vehicle. The battery is coupled to the output terminal of the adaptive power supply. The sensing circuit senses the output of the output terminal of the adaptive power supply and the output of the battery. The power dispatch controller controls the output of the output terminal of the adaptive power supply according to the sensing result of the sensing circuit. The power dispatch controller determines whether one or both of the adaptive power supply and the battery power the load circuit by adjusting the output of the adaptive power supply.

  • Publication number: 20200201189
    Abstract: An exposure apparatus including an optical device set and a substrate carrying platform is provided. The optical device set includes a plurality of light sources, at least one rotating beam deflector and at least one deflector set. The plurality of light sources are configured to emit a plurality of beams. Each deflector set includes a plurality of deflectors. The substrate carrying platform is configured to move an exposed substrate disposed on the substrate carrying platform relative to the optical device set along a relative movement direction. The plurality of beams sequentially travel through the at least one rotating beam deflector and the plurality of deflectors to be projected on the exposed substrate. Trajectories of the plurality of beams projected on the exposed substrate form a plurality of scan lines through rotation of the at least one rotating beam deflector.
