Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a plurality of stacked and suspended semiconductor nanosheets located above a semiconductor substrate. Each semiconductor nanosheet has a pair of end sidewalls that have a V-shaped undercut surface. A functional gate structure is located around the plurality of stacked and suspended semiconductor nanosheets, and a source/drain (S/D) semiconductor material structure is located on each side of the functional gate structure. In accordance with the present application, sidewall portions of each S/D semiconductor material structure are in direct contact with the V-shaped undercut surface of the end sidewalls of each of the semiconductor nanosheets.

Abstract: During a first execution of software, historical data is logged that indicates which locale objects were used. During a second execution of the software, the historical data is read, and locale objects or subsections of locale objects are dynamically built from locale source files based on the historical data in the log that indicates which locale objects were used during the first execution. Any other locale objects or subsections that are needed that are not built initially during the second execution are dynamically built from locale source files when requested at run-time. Dynamically building locale objects or subsections based on which locale objects were used in one or more previous executions saves time that would otherwise be required to build the locale objects when they are needed at run-time. The result is significant savings in system-wide resources while still allowing for access to a large number of possible locales.

Abstract: An airborne particle collection system includes an airflow directing unit, register units, a fan unit, and a control system. The airflow directing unit includes a plurality of separately controlled air distribution segments. Each register unit includes a motorized damper and filter. The fan unit is connected to the airflow directing unit and to the register units through piping. The fan unit injects air into the airflow directing unit, and generates a vacuum force that causes exhaust air with airborne particles to be pulled into the register units and filtered by the filters within the register units. The control system selectively controls the air distribution segments of the airflow directing unit and the motorized dampers of the register units to generate alterable airflow patterns between the airflow directing unit and the register units in different zones within a room in which the airflow directing unit and the register units are disposed.

Abstract: A method for filling gaps between structures includes forming a plurality of high aspect ratio structures adjacent to one another with gaps, forming a first dielectric layer on tops of the structures and conformally depositing a spacer dielectric layer over the structures. The spacer dielectric layer is removed from horizontal surfaces and a protection layer is conformally deposited over the structures. The gaps are filled with a flowable dielectric, which is recessed to a height along sidewalls of the structures by a selective etch process such that the protection layer protects the spacer dielectric layer on sidewalls of the structures. The first dielectric layer and the spacer dielectric layer are exposed above the height using a higher etch resistance than the protection layer to maintain dimensions of the spacer layer dielectric through the etching processes. The gaps are filled by a high density plasma fill.

Abstract: Execution of a set of instructions within a transaction is prevented. A processor identifies a first set of instructions in an instruction stream of a transaction. The first set of instructions incurs a first memory access that is not visible to the transaction and will cause the transaction to abort. The processor generates a second set of instructions that incurs a second memory access that is visible to the transaction. The second set of instructions is generated based on the first memory access and first set of instructions. The processor executes, within the transaction, the second set of instructions instead of the first set of instructions.

Abstract: A supervisory hardware device in a processor core detects a flush instruction that, when executed, flushes content of one or more general purpose registers (GPRs) within the processor core. The content of the one or more GPRs is moved to a history buffer (HB) and an instruction sequencing queue (ISQ) within the processor core, where the content includes data, an instruction tag (iTag) that identifies an instruction that generated the data, and error correction code (ECC) bits for the data. In response to receiving a restore instruction, the supervisory hardware device error checks the data in the ISQ using the ECC bits stored in the ISQ. In response to detecting an error in the data in the ISQ, the supervisory hardware device sends the data and the ECC bits from the ISQ to an ECC scrubber to generate corrected data, which is restored into the one or more GPRs.

Abstract: A first stream operator can receive a first tuple including a first set of attributes to be stored in a first window and a second tuple including a second set of attributes to be stored in a second window. The first window and the second window can each have an eviction policy. In response to triggering the eviction policy for the first window and the second window, the first tuple stored in the first window can be compared with the second tuple stored in the second window. Based upon the comparing, it can be determined that the first tuple and the second tuple go outside of a join threshold. In response to determining that the first tuple and the second tuple go outside of a join threshold, the eviction policy of the first window can be altered.
