Abstract:
Dynamic sampling systems for fabrication with inspection control are provided. In embodiments of a fabrication system comprising a processing tool, inspection tool, and a controller, the processing tool performs a fabrication process on a workpiece associated with identification information. The inspection tool performs an inspection step on the workpiece. The controller, coupled to the processing and inspection tools, determines whether the processing tool corresponds to an inspection result obtained during a preset time period, and determines whether the workpiece is to be inspected by the inspection tool accordingly.
Abstract:
An image processing method is provided. The image processing method includes the following steps. A plurality of raw signal is received by a signal transceiving module of the ultrasound imaging system. It is determined whether each of the raw signals satisfies any condition in a condition group, and the raw signal satisfying any condition in the condition group is mapped to one of a plurality of preset constants to generate a plurality of first data. The raw signals not satisfying any condition in the condition group are processed according to a calculation formula to generate a plurality of second data. A beamforming procedure is simultaneously performed on the first and second data to obtain a beamformed image. The beamformed image is transformed to obtain an image of a region to be detected. Furthermore, an imaging system using the foregoing image processing method is also provided.
Abstract:
A wafer splitting apparatus suitable for splitting a plurality of chip regions of a wafer into a plurality of independent dice is provided. The wafer splitting apparatus includes a splitting knife body and at least a vibrating hammer. The splitting knife body is disposed at one side of the wafer, and has a first surface facing the wafer. The first surface stretches over a plurality of chip regions in all extending directions of the first surface passing through a center of the first surface. The splitting knife body is disposed between the wafer and the vibrating hammer, and the vibrating hammer is suitable for knocking the splitting knife body in a direction toward the wafer to make the splitting knife body move toward the wafer, so as to split the chip regions of the wafer into a plurality of independent dice. A wafer splitting process is also provided.
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods of identifying microRNA motifs or microRNA precursors for a target gene or a set of target genes. Also disclosed are related computer-readable media.
Abstract:
A protection circuit is coupled between a secondary winding of a transformer and a load. When voltage at the secondary winding of the transformer becomes abnormal, the protection circuit disconnects the power connection to the load so as to protect the load from damage. When the voltage at the secondary winding of the transformer returns normal, the protection circuit restores power to the load.
Abstract:
Within a method for forming a microelectronic fabrication there is provided a substrate having formed thereover a patterned dielectric layer which defines a via. There is also formed within a lower portion of the via a tungsten stud layer having a recess thereabove within the via. There is also formed within the recess a patterned conductor capping layer formed of a conductor material other than tungsten. The patterned conductor capping layer may seal a void formed within the tungsten stud layer.
Abstract:
A fuse structure and method for fabricating same are disclosed. The fuse structure is designed for opening by conventional laser energy application. The fuse structure is characterized by an absence of high stress areas in the surrounding substrate thereby resulting in higher fabrication yields due to lower occurrence of substrate fracturing or other damage occasioned by the opening of the fuse.
