Abstract:
A touch information communication method transmits notification information to the touch screen information providing apparatus by carrying the notification information, which notifies a touch communication terminal is a touch communication terminal, on a call signal in a telephone communication network; receives touch screen information and touch control information corresponding to the touch screen information from the touch screen information providing apparatus; and when a user touches a predetermined area on a screen, determines the touched area and transmits touch input information corresponding to the touched area to the touch screen information providing apparatus.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a composition for the treatment and inhibition or prevention of arthritic diseases includes an extract of mixed herbs, the mixed herbs including an active ingredient with Lonicera japonica THUNB and Anemarrhena asphodeloides BUNGE.
Abstract:
A method for forming a planarized inter-metal insulation film is provided. The method includes applying a CMP process to an insulation film as controlled by a polish-stop layer pattern formed on an underlying metal wiring pattern. A PAE based material may be used to form the polish-stop layer.
Abstract:
A method of planarizing the surface of a semiconductor substrate to reduce the occurrence of a dishing phenomenon. A patterned etch stop layer defining a trench region is formed on a substrate. The substrate is etched to form a trench region, and a medium material layer and an oxide layer are subsequently formed on the substrate, filling the trench region. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is performed on the oxide layer until the medium material layer is exposed. CMP is then performed until the patterned etch stop layer is exposed and a planarized oxide layer is formed. Because the medium material layer has a higher removal rate during CMP than the oxide layer, occurrences of the dishing phenomenon are reduced. A slurry including an anionic surfactant is used to increase the CMP removal ratio of the medium material layer to the oxide layer.
Abstract:
A slurry, chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) method using the slurry, and method of forming metal wiring using the slurry. The slurry may include a polishing agent, an oxidant, and at least one defect inhibitor to protect the metal film. The CMP method and method of forming metal wiring may employ one or two slurries with at least one of the slurries including at least one defect inhibitor.

Abstract:
A slurry delivery system, a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) apparatus, and method for using the same are provided. An apparatus for supplying slurry to a polishing unit may include a first feed line through which an abrasive may be supplied at a first velocity. A velocity-changing member may be connected to the first feed line, and/or a velocity of the abrasive may be changed from the first velocity to. the second velocity different from the first velocity by the velocity-changing member. A second feed line may be connected to the velocity-changing member and/or an additive may be supplied through the second feed line. A supply line may be connected to the velocity-changing member. A slurry, which may be a mixture of the abrasive and/or the additive, may be supplied to a polishing unit through the supply line. Accordingly, the slurry may be more uniformly mixed and/or supplied to a polishing unit.

Abstract:
A method of planarizing an interlayer dielectric layer formed over a one cylinder storage (OCS) capacitor including applying two or three interlayer dielectric layers over the capacitor and planarizing the interlayer dielectric layers using CMP having a different etching selectivity according to the layers.
Abstract:
A chemical mechanical polishing slurry includes an additive of a quaternary ammonium compound having a form of {N—(R1R2R3R4)}+X−, in which R1, R2, R3, and R4 are radicals, and X− is an anion derivative including halogen elements. Preferably, the quaternary ammonium compound is one of [(CH3)3NCH2CH2OH]Cl, [(CH3)3NCH2CH2OH]l, [(CH3)3NCH2CH2OH]Br, [(CH3)3NCH2CH2OH]CO3, and mixtures thereof. The slurry may further include a pH control agent formed of a base such as KOH, NH4OH, and (CH3)4NOH, and an acid such as HCl, H2SO4, H3PO4, and HNO3. Also, the pH control agent can include [(CH3)3NCH2CH2OH]OH. The slurry may further include a surfactant such as cetyldimethyl ammonium bromide, cetyldimethyl ammonium bromide, polyethylene oxide, polyethylene alcohol or polyethylene glycol.
