  • Publication number: 20240086692
    Abstract: A semiconductor device may include a non-volatile memory cell structure that may be formed in a back end region of a semiconductor device. The non-volatile memory cell structure may include a floating gate structure in which a portion of a dielectric layer is included between a gate structure and a word line conductive structure. The separation of the gate structure and the word line conductive structure by the dielectric layer results in the gate structure being a floating gate structure. This enables a charge to be selectively stored on the gate structure, even when power is removed from the word line conductive structure. The non-volatile memory cell structure along with a volatile memory cell structure are provided in the back end region of the semiconductor device, such that caching and long-term storage may be performed in the back end region of the semiconductor device.

  • Publication number: 20240074137
    Abstract: A capacitorless dynamic random access memory (DRAM) cell may include a plurality of transistors. At least a subset of the transistors may include a channel layer that approximately resembles an inverted U shape, an ohm symbol (?) shape, or an uppercase/capital omega (?) shape. The particular shape of the channel layer provides an increased channel length for the subset of the transistors, which may reduce the off current and may reduce current leakage in the subset of the transistors. The reduced off current and reduced current leakage may increase data retention in the subset of the transistors and/or may increase the reliability of the subset of the transistors without increasing the footprint of the subset of the transistors. Moreover, the particular shape of the channel layer enables the subset of the transistors to be formed with a top-gate structure, which provides low integration complexity with other transistors in the capacitorless DRAM cell.

  • Patent number: 11900448
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing liquidity when processing transactions are disclosed. In some embodiments, the method is implemented by a computing device and comprises: receiving data for a plurality of transactions; continuously reading in and aggregating, with an aggregator implemented at least partially in hardware of the computing device, transactions to produce one or more netted currency positions based on a plurality of properties of the transactions and on a plurality of netting constraints; generating one or more tasks, using a trade generator implemented at least partially in hardware of the computing device, to route cash movements as one or more batched fund transfers based on one or more trading policies; and sending the one or more tasks via network communications to one or more entities to execute the batched fund transfers.
