A method for the recovery of copper, indium, gallium, and selenium is provided. The method includes steps of using a mixed solution containing a hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide to dissolve the copper, indium, gallium, and selenium.

The invention provides a method of forming a polycrystalline semiconductor film on a supporting substrate of foreign material. The method involves depositing a metal film onto the substrate, forming a film of metal oxide and / or hydroxide on a substrate of the metal, and forming a layer of an amorphous semiconductor material over a surface of the metal oxide and / or hydroxide film. The entire sample is then heated to a temperature at which the semiconductor layer is absorbed into the metal layer and deposited as a polycrystalline layer onto the target surface by metal-induced crystallization. The metal is left as an overlayer covering the deposited polycrystalline layer, with semiconductor inclusions in the metal layer. The polycrystalline semiconductor film and the overlayer are generated by porous interfacial metal oxide nd / or hydroxide film. The metal in the overlayer and the interfacial metal oxide and / or hydroxide film are then removed with an etch which underetches the semiconductor inclusions to form freestanding islands. Finally, the freestanding semiconductor “islands” are removed from the surface of the polycrystalline semiconductor layer by a lift-off process.

The invention provides a superconducting tape packaging device. Two independent unwinding mechanisms of a tape unwinding mechanism unwind upper coating tapes and lower coating tapes respectively, and the remaining independent unwinding mechanisms unwind superconducting tapes. A guide wheel mechanism guides and locks the relative positions of the upper coating tapes, the lower coating tapes and the superconducting tapes. A furnace can go up and down, and is used for assembling molten electrical connection weld metal. Through up-down movement, the tapes output by the guide wheel mechanism are enabled to contact or not contact the electrical connection weld metal so as to form packaged or unpackaged synthetic superconducting tapes. An extrusion mechanism pulls the synthetic superconducting tapes out of the furnace. A winding mechanism winds the synthetic superconducting tapes pulled out of the extrusion mechanism. All points of the furnace are kept at constant temperature. Constant tension and constant speed of the tapes are ensured. The synthetic superconducting tapes are consistent in width and thickness, have no impurities, and have a smooth surface. Continuous production without shutdown is realized. An internally packaged superconducting joint with uniformly distributed contact resistance can be manufactured.

In a multiport memory, in the event of simultaneous read / write operation for the same row address, a read word line pulse signal, output from a read control circuit for memory access based on an externally supplied read enable signal and read clock signal, is input into a write control circuit, to delay start of the write operation until termination of the read operation. This can delay the timing of activating a write word line by a write row decoder behind the timing of activating a read word line by a read row decoder, to allow the read operation first followed by the write operation. Therefore, since the read operation is performed while the write word line being kept closed, the trouble of data processing becoming uncertain due to addition of the load of a write bit line to a read bit line can be prevented.
