In a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, a semiconductor film formed over an insulator is doped with an impurity element to a depth less than the thickness of the semiconductor film, thereby forming an impurity doped layer; a metal silicide layer is formed on the impurity doped layer; the metal silicide layer and the semiconductor film are etched to form a recessed portion; and a layer which is not doped with the impurity element and is located at the bottom of the recessed portion of the semiconductor film is thinned to make a channel formation region. Further, a gate electrode is formed in the recessed portion over the thinned non impurity doped layer, with an insulating film interposed therebetween.

The object of the present invention is to propose a structure of a display device in which water is prevented from passing through the side faces of a display device using an organic light-emitting element and a gap between substrates is made uniform. On the first substrate having the light-emitting element provided thereon, the thicknesses of the layers deposited in the peripheral area, the pixel portion and the driving circuit portion are equalized with each other. Furthermore, an adhesive is provided as thin as possible in the peripheral area of the first substrate so as to bond a second substrate to the first substrate. As a result, the distance between the first substrate and the second substrate can be made uniform throughout the peripheral area of the first substrate, the pixel portion and the driving circuit. Moreover, since a protective film overlying the organic light-emitting element is also provided on the side faces of the second insulating film, water is prevented from entering the display device through its side faces.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a double gated transistor and a method for forming the same that results in improved device performance and density. The preferred embodiment of the present invention uses provides a double gated transistor with asymmetric gate doping, where one of the double gates is doped degenerately n-type and the other degenerately p-type. By doping on of the gates n-type, and the other p-type, the threshold voltage of the resulting device is improved. In particular, by asymmetrically doping the two gates, the resulting transistor can, with adequate doping of the body, have a threshold voltage in a range that enables low-voltage CMOS operation. For example, a transistor can be created that has a threshold voltage between 0V and 0.5V for nFETs and between 0 and −0.5V for pFETs.

An intravascular basket device for use in capturing either naturally occurring or foreign debris found in blood vessels or other regions of the body.

Layers of a passivating material and / or containing luminescent centers are deposited on phosphor particles or particles that contain a host material that is capable of capturing an excitation energy and transferring it to a luminescent center or layer. The layers are formed in an ALD process. The ALD process permits the formation of very thin layers. Coated phosphors have good resistance to ambient moisture and oxygen, and / or can be designed to emit a distribution of desired light wavelengths.

There is provided a contacting device (1) for chip cards, preferably for SIM cards, comprising a base (2), a slider (12) arranged at the base (2) and being movable with respect to the base (2), the chip card (4) being slidable between an insert / removal position and a reading position by means of said slider, and means (7, 22) for inhibiting removal of the slider from the contacting device (1). Preferably, the slider (12) is slidably mounted to the base (2) and is in abutting engagement with an abutment in the insert / removal position such that the slider (12) cannot be removed from the contacting device (1), i.e. the slider (12) cannot be moved beyond the insert / removal position. Thus, the contacting device does not comprise any loose parts that could get lost. In accordance with another embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a contacting device (1) for a chip card (4) comprising a stationary base (2) and a movable slider (12), wherein a chip card (4) is slidable between an insert / removal position and a reading position, wherein a metal cover (24) is fixedly mounted to the contacting device (1) and for providing support for the chip card (4) for providing counter-forces taking up contacting forces between contacting elements of the contacting device (1) and contacting pads of the chip card. Preferably, the contacting device (1) has a card plenum (11) for receiving the chip card (4), and the metal cover (24) spans the card plenum (11) as well as the slider (12) and extends around the sides of the base (2). By using a metal cover, a particularly small thickness is possible for this component. Further, the metal cover is easy to manufacture and to assemble.

To reduce viewing angle dependence of γ characteristics in a normally black liquid crystal display. Each pixel 10 has a first sub-pixel 10a and a second sub-pixel 10b which can apply mutually different voltages to their respective liquid crystal layers.
