Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. The method includes coating a photoresist on a substrate. The photoresist is exposed to radiation. The radiation exposed photoresist is baked. The radiation exposed and baked photoresist is developed to create an image pattern. The image pattern is treated with a treating material. An ion implantation process is performed to the substrate and the treated image pattern. The image pattern is stripped from the substrate. A carbon atom ratio of the treating material is less than a carbon atom ratio of the photoresist.
Abstract:
An extension to current multiple memory bank video processing architecture is presented. A more powerful memory controller is incorporated, allowing computation of multiple memory addresses at both the input and the output data paths making possible new combinations of reads and writes at the input and output ports. Matrix transposition computations required by the algorithms used in image and video processing are implemented in MAC modules and memory banks. The technique described here can be applied to other parallel processors including future VLIW DSP processors.
Abstract:
A method of processing a readback signal generated from reading an optical storage medium is provided. The method includes: performing a defect detection according to the readback signal to generate a defect detection result indicating defective areas on the optical storage medium; and performing a parameter calibration upon at least a parameter associated with processing of the readback signal according to the defect detection result.
Abstract:
A computing device-based system and method are described for generating a medical procedure description recorded into the system by a physician. The system and method manipulate a set of database records comprising medical content which is naturally descriptive of clinical procedures and clinically accurate diagrams which are naturally descriptive to document a medical procedure. To support the generation of a set of said medical procedure descriptions, the system and method provide interchangeable, connected, ontologically-based medical procedure database cartridges of medical content terms, rules, and diagrams that naturally describe constrained procedure representations for clinical procedure descriptions.
Abstract:
A method of lithography patterning includes forming a first material layer on a substrate; forming a first patterned resist layer including at least one opening therein on the first material layer; forming a second material layer on the first patterned resist layer and the first material layer; forming a second patterned resist layer including at least one opening therein on the second material layer; and etching the first and second material layers uncovered by the first and second patterned resist layers.
Abstract:
The invention discloses a metal pattern formation method including the following steps. At first, an organic liquid is printed on a substrate to form a base pattern. Afterward, a metal is evaporated to generate several metal particles for covering the printed substrate. At last, the substrate is heated to vaporize the base pattern, and the metal particles adhered to the substrate forms a metal pattern complementary to the base pattern.
Abstract:
A method comprises forming a photoresist on a substrate, rinsing the photoresist using a rinse liquid agitated with at least one megasonic source, exposing the photoresist to radiation while immersed in a liquid, and developing the photoresist.

Abstract:
A method and system is disclosed for powering device sub-circuitry of an electronic device. The sub-circuitry may be used to provide control signals to a direct current switcher on a main system board, thus eliminating passive circuitry typically associated with the sub-circuitry. Furthermore, by actively generating the control signals for the direct current switcher, explicit timing control circuitry is not required to synchronize the transmitted power to the sub-circuitry.
