  • Patent number: 11233159
    Abstract: In fabricating a semiconductor structure, a group IV substrate and a group III-V chiplet are provided. The group III-V chiplet is bonded to the group IV substrate, and patterned to produce a patterned group III-V device. A blanket dielectric layer is formed over the patterned group III-V device. A first contact hole is formed in the blanket dielectric layer over a first portion of the patterned group III-V device. A first liner stack and a first filler metal are subsequently formed in the first contact hole. A second contact hole is formed in the blanket dielectric layer over a second portion of the patterned group III-V device. A second liner stack and a second filler metal are subsequently formed in the second contact hole. A first bottom metal liner of the first liner stack can be different from a second bottom metal liner of the second liner stack.

  • Patent number: 11231918
    Abstract: A function is compiled against a first application binary interface (ABI) and a second ABI of a native first instruction set architecture (ISA). The second ABI defines context data not exceeding a size expected by a third ABI of a foreign second ISA, and uses a subset of registers of the first ISA that are mapped to registers of the second ISA. Use of the subset of registers by the second ABI results in some functions being foldable when compiled using both the first and second ABIs. First and second compiled versions of the function are identified as foldable, or not, based on whether the compiled versions match. Both the first and second compiled versions are emitted into a binary file when they are not foldable, and only one of the first or second compiled versions is emitted into the binary file when they are foldable.

  • Patent number: 11232158
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for single view presentation of multiple query. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for single view presentation of multiple query includes directing a query against a database along a selected dimension of multiple different elements. In response, a primary result set is received. The result set is then organized into a tabular view of cells according to the selected dimension and values for the selected dimension. Thereafter, a set of nested queries may be directed for each of the elements in the selected dimension against the result set utilizing a different dimension. In response to each directed set of nested queries, a corresponding result set is thus received. Finally, each corresponding result set is inserted into a cell associated with a common one of the elements.

  • Patent number: 11231590
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a frame component of a head-mounted device (HMD), an eyepiece, a battery, a processor, a heat pipe, and a hinge. The frame component includes a first compartment, a second compartment, and a channel connecting the first compartment and the second compartment. The heat pipe may extend from the first compartment to the second compartment through a channel and may be configured to transfer heat from the processor to the battery. A rate of heat transfer through the hinge may be greater than a threshold value when the hinge is in an open conformation that configures the frame component to be positioned along the side of the head. The heat transfer through the hinge may be smaller than the threshold value when the hinge is in a folded conformation that configures the frame component to be positioned for storage.

  • Patent number: 11229749
    Abstract: A dosage measurement system is adapted to receive a motion from a dosage injection mechanism disposed within a drug injection pen. The dosage measurement system includes a substrate, a sensing capacitor disposed on the substrate, and a lifting tab. The sensing capacitor includes a dielectric layer disposed between a base plate and an adjustable plate. The lifting tab is attached to the adjustable plate and positioned to engage an undulation pattern disposed on a component attached to the dosage injection mechanism. The lifting tab is adapted to physically change a separation distance between the adjustable plate and the base plate in a reciprocal manner in response to the motion of the dosage injection mechanism and engagement with the undulation pattern. A capacitance of the sensing capacitor changes in response to the engagement of the lifting tab with the undulation pattern and the motion of the dosage injection mechanism.

  • Patent number: 11229962
    Abstract: A system for trimming fins on a downhole tool is disclosed. The system includes a jig that mounts to the shaft of the tool. A linear aperture is formed in the jig and has a closed end, an open end, and is sized to axially receive a single fin of the tool. A channel is located on an underside of the jig beneath the aperture. The channel has an inner radius of curvature. The inner radius of curvature is substantially similar to an outer radius of curvature of the shaft. The channel can form a friction lock on the exterior of the shaft and be removably attached to the shaft without fasteners. The channel is arcuate and has a selected arcuate span.

  • Patent number: 11233749
    Abstract: Providing fluid external access to a resource that is internal to a network from external to that network. From within the network, the internal user simply provides an internal identifier, and the external user accesses not the internal identifier, but an external uniform resource identifier (URL) that the external user can simply select to obtain access to the internal resource of the network. This is accomplished by translating the internal identifier to an external URL having a proxy server as its domain name. When the external URL selects the URL, a request with that external URL is made to the proxy server, which translates the external URL back to the internal identifier, and coordinates with the network to obtain the resource for the external user.

  • Patent number: 11234162
    Abstract: A wireless device may receive packets according to a protocol, such as Bluetooth, and may rapidly react to receive an interfering RF packet instead of dropping the first RF packet and the interfering RF packet, to decrease message delay due to collisions in high device density environments. When a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) difference between the interfering RF packet and the first RF packet exceeds a threshold, the device may detect the interfering packet and resync a portion of its circuitry to lock on to and receive the interfering packet. The wireless receiver may detect the interfering RF packet by detecting one or more of: a specific resync byte sequence, an increase in RSSI, or a phase shift. Additionally, a wireless device may add the specific resync byte sequence to an RF packet of a standard protocol.

  • Patent number: 11231472
    Abstract: A system for positioning of an RF surface coil to several imaging tables has a table coupling device with first and second sides and table engagement features. The first side has a planar surface to mate with a first imaging table. The second side has a contoured surface having a curvature to mate with a second imaging table. A coil coupling device selectively couples to each of the first and second sides of the table coupling device in respective first and second configurations. The coil coupling device selectively rotates about a rotation axis perpendicular to the first side, and selectively translates along a translation axis perpendicular to the rotation axis. The coil coupling device has one or more coil engagement features to selectively engage the RF surface coil in each of a horizontal position and vertical position of the RF surface coil with respect to the table coupling device.

  • Patent number: 11233772
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for cross-platform token exchange. One method comprises receiving a primary token exchange request from an upstream entity, generating an ancillary detokenization request based on the primary token exchange request, and transmitting the ancillary detokenization request to an input token vault. An ancillary detokenization response comprising sensitive data may then be received from the input token vault, and one or more ancillary tokenization requests may be generated based on the ancillary detokenization response and the primary token exchange request. The one or more ancillary tokenization requests may be transmitted to one or more output token vaults. Subsequently, one or more ancillary tokenization responses may be received from the one or more output token vaults, each ancillary tokenization response comprising an output token.
