    摘要: Multi-mode (e.g., EAS and RFID) tags and methods for making and using the same are disclosed. The tag generally includes an antenna, an electronic article surveillance (EAS) function block coupled to the antenna, and one or more identification function blocks coupled to the antenna in parallel with the EAS function block. The method of reading the tag generally includes the steps of applying an electric field to the tag, detecting the tag when the electric field has a relatively low power, and detecting an identification signal from the tag when the electric field has a relatively high power. The present invention advantageously enables a single tag to be used for both inventory and anti-theft purposes, thereby improving inventory management and control at reduced system and/or “per-article” costs.

    摘要: Printed integrated circuitry and attached antenna and/or inductor for sensors, electronic article surveillance (EAS), radio frequency (RF) and/or RF identification (RFID) tags and devices, and methods for its manufacture. The tag generally includes printed integrated circuitry on one carrier and an antenna and/or inductor on another carrier, the integrated circuitry being electrically coupled to the antenna and/or inductor. The method of manufacture generally includes of printing an integrated circuit having a plurality of first pads on a carrier, forming an antenna and/or inductor having a plurality of second pads on a substrate, and attaching at least two of the first pads of the printed integrated circuit to corresponding second pads of the antenna and/or inductor. The present invention advantageously provides a low cost RFID tag capable of operating at MHz frequencies that can be manufactured in a shorter time period than conventional RFID tags that manufacture all active electrical devices on a conventional wafer.

    摘要: A MOS transistor with self-aligned source/drain terminals, and methods for its manufacture. The transistor generally includes an electrically functional substrate, a dielectric film on portions of the substrate, a gate on the dielectric film, and polycrystalline source and drain terminals self-aligned with the gate. The method generally includes forming an amorphous semiconductor material on a gate and on exposed portions of an electrically functional substrate, irradiating an upper surface of the amorphous semiconductor material to form self-aligned polycrystalline semiconducting source/drain terminal layers, and (optionally) selectively removing the non-irradiated amorphous semiconductor material portions. The present invention advantageously provides MOS thin film transistors having reliable electrical characteristics quickly, efficiently, and/or at a low cost by eliminating one or more conventional photolithographic steps.
