The present invention provides a transition moulding comprised of an elongate piece having three strips of adhesive material, a plurality of holes, and thin lateral beveled edges. The holes are for embedding adhesive or mortar as well as placing mechanical fasteners to secure the moulding to the sub floor. The adhesive bands are for securing the flooring material and the central adhesive band is for placing a clip that is configured and sized to hold a “T” separator placed between the two flooring materials. There is also a crease to facilitate the folding or breaking of the moulding for when it is used against a wall or at the end of a floor such as on door sills or staircase.

A SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistor is fabricated by etching an epitaxially-formed structure to form a mesa that has a collector region, a cap region, and a notched SiGe base region that lies in between. A protective plug is formed in the notch of the SiGe base region so that thick non-conductive regions can be formed on the sides of the collector region and the cap region. Once the non-conductive regions have been formed, the protective plug is removed. An extrinsic base is then formed to lie in the notch and touch the base region, followed by the formation of isolation regions and an emitter region.

摘要:
A single, controlled etch step can be used to form a sharp tip feature along a sidewall of an etch feature. An etch process is used that is selective to a layer of tip material relative to the substrate upon which the layer is deposited. A lag can be created in the etch, such that the etch rate is slower near the sidewall. The sharp tip feature is formed from the same layer of material used to create the etch feature. The sharp tip feature can be used to decrease the minimum critical dimension of an etch process, such as may be due to the minimum resolution of a photolithographic process. The novel tip feature also can be used for other applications, such as to create a microaperture for a photosensitive device, or to create a micromold that can be used to form objects such as microlenses.
