Abstract: A method for forming a memory device is disclosed. A stack structure including interleaved first layers and second layers is formed. A staircase structure including stairs at an edge of the stack structure is formed. Each stair has one of the first layers on a top surface of the stair. A third layer including vertical portions covering side surface of the stairs and lateral portions covering the top surface of the stairs is formed. The third layer includes a first sublayer in contact with the stair and a second sublayer in contact with the first sublayer and on the first sublayer. A mask covering the vertical portions and the lateral portions of the third layer is formed. A portion of the mask covering the vertical portions of the third layer is removed to expose the vertical portions of the third layer. Vertical portions of the first sublayer are removed using a first etching process. Vertical portions of the second sublayer are removed using a second etching process.

Abstract: Provided are a secondary cured UV pressure-sensitive adhesive, and preparation methods for same and an explosion-proof film. The secondary cured UV pressure-sensitive adhesive is composed of the following materials, in percentages by mass: 31-35% of a hydroxyl-containing polyacrylate prepolymer, 6-9% of pentaerythritol triacrylate, 3-5% of 2-hydroxyl-3-phenoxy propane acrylate, 2-3% of an isocyanate curing agent, 2-3% of photo initiator 184, and 50% of ethyl acetate. The secondary cured UV pressure-sensitive adhesive is prepared by carrying out a thermal curing cross-linking reaction of a hydroxyl-containing polyacrylate prepolymer, pentaerythritol triacrylate and 2-hydroxyl-3-phenoxy propane acrylate by using an isocyanate curing agent, and initiating a free radical polymerization of pentaerythritol triacrylate and 2-hydroxyl-3-phenoxy propane acrylate by using photo initiator 184.

Abstract: A search engine identifies external data records that describe similar entities and may each conform to a different data format or source schema. The engine derives mappings capable of translating data values between differently formatted attributes of two source schemas and uses these mappings to identify degrees of similarity between attributes and schemas. When the search engine receives a search request, the engine translates submitted search criteria into values of a first schema's attributes and then uses the mappings to map those values onto selected attributes of other schemas. The search engine then uses each schema's selected attributes to select external data records formatted in that schema. Each selected record is assigned a match score that is weighted by the similarity of the record schema's selected attributes to the search criteria. Records are then retrieved in order of decreasing match score.
