摘要:
Embodiments of the invention relate to magnetizing and detecting nanoparticle-labeled antigens on biosample tracks deposited on a tape media. An aspect of the invention comprises apparatus and methods for labeling antigens with demagnetized nanoparticles, magnetizing the nanoparticles with an electromagnetic write head, and detecting the antigens via the magnetized nanoparticles by reading the tape media with a read sensor in a read-after-write operation. The write head and read sensor are part of a head-module of magnetic tape drive. Target antigens are attached to the biosample tracks by antibodies. Nanoparticles of differing magnetic properties may be selectively paired with antibodies associated with different antigens to allow multiple antigens to be detected upon a single scan by the read sensor.

The present invention relates to complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) devices having gapped dual stressors with dielectric gap fillers. Specifically, each CMOS device of the present invention includes at least one n-channel field effect transistor (n-FET) and at least one p-channel field effect transistor (p-FET). A tensilely stressed dielectric layer overlays the n-FET, and a compressively stressed dielectric layer overlays the p-FET. A gap is located between the tensilely and compressively stressed dielectric layers and is filled with a dielectric filler material. In one specific embodiment of the present invention, both the tensilely and compressively stressed dielectric layers are covered by a layer of the dielectric filler material, which is essentially free of stress. In an alternatively embodiment of the present invention, the dielectric filler material is only present in the gap between the tensilely and compressively stressed dielectric layers.

Bonding of substrates including metal-dielectric patterns on a surface with the metal raised above the dielectric is disclosed. One method includes providing a first substrate having a metal-dielectric pattern on a surface thereof; providing a second substrate having a metal-dielectric pattern on a surface thereof; performing a process resulting in the metal being raised above the dielectric; cleaning the metal; and bonding the first substrate to the second substrate. A related structure is also disclosed. The bonding of raised metal provides a strong bonding medium, and good electrical and thermal connections enabling creation of three dimensional integrated structures with enhanced functionality.

摘要:
A sealed microelectronic structure which provides mechanical stress endurance and includes at least two chips being electrically connected to a semiconductor structure at a plurality of locations. Each chip includes a continuous bonding material along it's perimeter and at least one support column connected to each of the chips positioned within the perimeter of each chip. Each support column extends outwardly such that when the at least two chips are positioned over one another the support columns are in mating relation to each other. A seal between the at least two chips results from the overlapping relation of the chip to one another such that the bonding material and support columns are in mating relation to each other. Thus, the seal is formed when the at least two chips are mated together, and results in a bonded chip structure.
