20140041745 | Water Supply Fixture For Electronic Bidet Toilet Seat - A water supply fixture is used to connect water supply source to an electronic bidet toilet seat. The water supply fixture includes two main portions. The first portion is a decorative rigid assembly that can be designed to blend in with the electronic bidet toilet seat appearance. This first portion, when being installed with the electronic bidet toilet seat, will occupy the plain sight of the user's view when he or she is in the standing position and looking down to the bidet toilet seat. The second portion of the water supply fixture is a flexible supply hose which generally may not be aesthetically good-looking,. This unaesthetic flexible supply hose, when being used, will be partly covered by the first portion of the water supply fixture, largely hidden underneath the electronic bidet toilet seat, and almost completely out of the user's view when looking down to the bidet toilet seat. | 02-13-2014 |

20090111200 | Method for Fabricating Electronic and Photonic Devices on a Semiconductor Substrate - A method for fabricating photonic and electronic devices on a substrate is disclosed. Multiple slabs are initially patterned and etched on a layer of a substrate. An electronic device is fabricated on a first one of the slabs and a photonic device is fabricated on a second one of the slabs, such that the electronic device and the photonic device are formed on the same layer of the substrate. | 04-30-2009 |
20100029033 | Method for Manufacturing Vertical Germanium Detectors - An improved method for manufacturing a vertical germanium detector is disclosed. Initially, a detector window is opened through an oxide layer on a single crystalline substrate. Next, a single crystal germanium layer is grown within the detector window, and an amorphous germanium layer is grown on the oxide layer. The amorphous germanium layer is then polished and removed until only a portion of the amorphous germanium layer is located around the single crystal germanium layer. A tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) layer is deposited on the amorphous germanium layer and the single crystal germanium layer. An implant is subsequently performed on the single crystal germanium layer. After an oxide window has been opened on the TEOS layer, a titanium layer is deposited on the single crystal germanium layer to form a vertical germanium detector. | 02-04-2010 |
20100140708 | Multi-Thickness Semiconductor with Fully Depleted Devices and Photonic Integration - Techniques are disclosed that facilitate fabrication of semiconductors including structures and devices of varying thickness. One embodiment provides a method for semiconductor device fabrication that includes thinning a region of a semiconductor wafer upon which the device is to be formed thereby defining a thin region and a thick region of the wafer. The method continues with forming on the thick region one or more photonic devices and/or partially depleted electronic devices, and forming on the thin region one or more fully depleted electronic devices. Another embodiment provides a semiconductor device that includes a semiconductor wafer defining a thin region and a thick region. The device further includes one or more photonic devices and/or partially depleted electronic devices formed on the thick region, and one or more fully depleted electronic devices formed on the thin region. An isolation area can be formed between the thin region and the thick region. | 06-10-2010 |

20120252158 | Method for Manufacturing Lateral Germanium Detectors - An improved method for manufacturing a lateral germanium detector is disclosed. A detector window is opened through an oxide layer to expose a doped single crystalline silicon layer situated on a substrate. Next, a single crystal germanium layer is grown within the detector window, and an amorphous germanium layer is grown on the oxide layer. The amorphous germanium layer is then polished to leave only a small portion around the single crystal germanium layer. A dielectric layer is deposited on the amorphous germanium layer and the single crystal germanium layer. Using resist masks and ion implants, multiple doped regions are formed on the single crystal germanium layer. After opening several oxide windows on the dielectric layer, a refractory metal layer is deposited on the doped regions to form multiple germanide layers. | 10-04-2012 |
20120304919 | Method For Growing Germanium Epitaxial Films - A method for growing germanium epitaxial films is disclosed. Initially, a silicon substrate is preconditioned with hydrogen gas. The temperature of the preconditioned silicon substrate is then decreased, and germane gas is flowed over the preconditioned silicon substrate to form an intrinsic germanium seed layer. Next, a mixture of germane and phosphine gases can be flowed over the intrinsic germanium, seed layer to produce an n-doped germanium seed layer. Otherwise, a mixture of diborane and germane gases can be flowed over the intrinsic germanium seed layer to produce a p-doped germanium seed layer. At this point, a hulk germanium layer can be grown on top of the doped germanium seed layer. | 12-06-2012 |
