Abstract:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device is provided. The method may include preparing a substrate having a first surface and a second surface, forming a via hole exposing at least a portion of the substrate from the first surface of the substrate, forming a first insulating film on an inner wall of the via hole, forming a conductive connection part filling an inside of the via hole including the first insulating film, polishing the second surface of the substrate until the conductive connection part is exposed, and selectively forming a second insulating film on the second surface of the substrate using an electrografting method to expose the conductive connection part.
Abstract:
A conductive via of a semiconductor device is provided extending in a vertical direction through a substrate, a first end of the conductive via extending through a first surface of the substrate, so that the first end protrudes in the vertical direction relative to the first surface of the substrate. An insulating layer is provided on the first end of the conductive via and on the first surface of the substrate. An upper portion of a mask layer pattern is removed so that a capping portion of the insulating layer that is on the first end of the conductive via is exposed. A portion of the insulating layer at a side of, and spaced apart from, the conductive via, is removed, to form a recess in the insulating layer. The capping portion of the insulating layer on the first end of the conductive via is simultaneously removed.
Abstract:
A transmitter of a Diagonal Bell Laboratories Layered Space-Time (DBLAST) system includes an interleaver for performing interleaving for all sub-streams in a stream of a transmission signal, thereby generating an interleaved signal, a symbol repeater for generating a reverse-arranged signal rearranged in a reverse order to the interleaved signal, and a DBLAST transmit unit for transmitting the interleaved signal and the reverse-arranged signal through multiple transmit antennas. A receiver of a DBLAST system includes a DBLAST receive unit for receiving signals through multiple transmit antennas, a repeating symbol combiner for generating a combined signal; a deinterleaver for generating a deinterleaved signal; and a decoder for decoding the deinterleaved signal.

Disclosed is a digital sampling rate converter for compensating for a drop of an in-band signal, the digital sampling rate converter including a CIC (Cascaded Integrator-Comb) decimator for performing a decimation operation at a first decimation ratio based on an overall decimation ratio, for an input signal; a sub-decimator for performing a decimation operation at a second decimation ratio for a signal output from the CIC decimator; and a compensation unit for performing at least two multiplication operations and two addition operations with respect to a signal output from the sub-decimator using a lowest operation clock frequency in an assigned band.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing semiconductor device includes preparing a substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. A first insulation layer is formed on the second surface. A sacrificial layer is formed on the first insulation layer. An opening is formed to penetrate through the substrate and extend from the first surface to a portion of the sacrificial layer. A second insulation layer is formed on an inner wall of the opening. A plug is formed to fill the opening. The sacrificial layer is removed to expose a lower portion of the plug through the second surface.
