Abstract: Identity verification workflow compliance management is provided. In example aspects, a workflow management engine evaluates a workflow configured by a user. The workflow management engine may determine a validity of the workflow and whether the workflow is compliant with selected compliance standards. In some embodiments, a user may edit a workflow through a workflow interface. As the user modifies the workflow, the workflow management engine may continually monitor the status of the workflow (i.e., whether the workflow is valid and compliant with the selected compliance standards). The workflow management engine may present indicators in the workflow interface indicating that the workflow is invalid or not compliant with the identified standards as the user makes modifications to the workflow.

Abstract: Devices and systems for insulating integrated circuits from ultraviolet (“UV”) light are described. The device includes a conductive feature, a first and second UV blocking layer, a first and second insulating laver, and a conductive structure. The first insulating layer overlays the first UV blocking layer. A via opening extends through the first insulating layer and the first UV blocking layer. The second UV blocking layer overlays the first insulating laver. The second insulating layer overlays the second UV blocking layer. An interconnect trench is defined in the second insulating layer and second UV blocking layer. The conductive structure is electrically connected to the conductive feature and extends into the via opening and along the interconnect trench.

Abstract: An electronic device can include a conductive feature and an ultraviolet (“UV”) blocking layer overlying the conductive feature. The electronic device can also include an insulating layer overlying the UV blocking layer. The electronic device can further include a conductive structure extending into an opening within the insulating layer, wherein the conductive structure is electrically connected to the conductive feature. In one aspect, the UV blocking layer lies within 90 nm of the conductive structure. The insulating layer can be at least 4 times thicker than the UV blocking layer. In another aspect, a method can be used in forming the electronic device. In still a further aspect, a system can include the electronic device, a processor, and a display, wherein the processor is electrically coupled to the electronic device and the display.

Abstract: A process of forming an electronic device including forming a first ultraviolet (“UV”) blocking layer over a conductive feature, wherein the first UV blocking layer lies within 90 nm of the conductive structure; forming a first insulating layer over the first UV blocking layer; and patterning the first insulating layer and the first UV blocking layer to form a first opening extending to the conductive feature, wherein during the process, the first UV blocking layer is exposed to UV radiation.

Abstract: A display device is provided that comprises a liquid crystal display panel (2) for displaying an image by spatial light modulation. The image is represented by a plurality of image elements each having an image data value (7). The display device further comprises a display controller (1) arranged to determine a signal voltage to be applied to the panel (2) for each image element in dependence upon its image data value (7) and a secondary data value (8) for the element, there being a predetermined mapping between the data values and the signal voltage. The secondary data values (8) are arranged to vary across the image so as to introduce variations in luminance as a result of the mapping. The mapping and secondary data values (8) are mutually arranged to take account of the signal voltage to on-axis luminance response of the panel (2) so that the luminance variations introduced on-axis tend to balance locally through spatial averaging to, and hence would not be perceivable by, an on-axis viewer (3).

Abstract: A tungsten gate electrode and method of fabricating the same are provided. In one aspect, a method of fabricating a circuit device in an opening in an insulating film on a substrate is provided. The method includes depositing a film of amorphous silicon and amorphous tungsten in the opening, and thereafter depositing a film of polycrystalline tungsten on the film and annealing the substrate to react the amorphous silicon with the amorphous tungsten to form tungsten silicide on the insulating film and to increase the grain structure of the polycrystalline tungsten film. The tungsten silicide film and the polycrystalline tungsten film may be planarized to the insulating film. The method enables the seamless fabrication of an adhesion layer and a tungsten conductor structure in a single chamber and without resort to titanium.
