Abstract: A smart wearable device has a signal calibration function executed by a signal calibration method and applied to a finger, a limb and/or a neck of a user. The smart wearable device includes at least one physiological signal detector, at least one pressure detector and an operation processor. The at least one physiological signal detector is adapted to abut against a detection area of the user for detecting a physiological signal. The at least one pressure detector is disposed around the at least one physiological signal detector and adapted to detect a pressure value of the detection area. The operation processor is electrically connected with the at least one physiological signal detector and the at least one pressure detector. The operation processor is adapted to optimize the physiological signal when the pressure value exceeds a predefined pressure threshold.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to methods for enhancing carbon hardmask to have improved etching selectivity and profile control. In some embodiments, a method of treating a carbon hardmask layer is provided and includes positioning a workpiece within a process region of a processing chamber, where the workpiece has a carbon hardmask layer disposed on or over an underlying layer, and treating the carbon hardmask layer by exposing the workpiece to a sequential infiltration synthesis (SIS) process to produce an aluminum oxide carbon hybrid hardmask which is denser than the carbon hardmask layer. The SIS process includes exposing and infiltrating the carbon hardmask layer with an aluminum precursor, purging to remove gaseous remnants, exposing and infiltrating the carbon hardmask layer to an oxidizing agent to produce an aluminum oxide coating disposed on inner surfaces of the carbon hardmask layer, and purging the process region to remove gaseous remnants.

Abstract: Exemplary methods of semiconductor processing may include forming a layer of silicon-containing material on a semiconductor substrate. The methods may include performing a post-formation treatment on the layer of silicon-containing material to yield a treated layer of silicon-containing material. The methods may include contacting the treated layer of silicon-containing material with an adhesion agent. The methods may include forming a layer of a resist material on the treated layer of silicon-containing material.

Abstract: A combined thin battery structure comprises a metallic first plate, a plastic frame, a battery module, and a metallic second plate. The first plate has a plurality of jointing slices and first contacting slices formed upwardly from peripheral edges thereof. The frame has a plurality of jointing grooves and fitting grooves formed from peripheral edges thereof. The jointing slices respectively insert into the jointing grooves. The battery module is fixed in the frame. The second plate has a plurality of fitting slices and second contacting slices formed downwardly from peripheral edges thereof. The fitting slices insert into the fitting grooves. Each of the second contacting slices extends to form a flexible arm. Each of the flexible arms has a contacting surface. The contacting surfaces of the flexible arms contact the first contacting slice via surface contact method thus the first plate electrically contacts the second plate to enhance EMI efficiency.
