  • Publication number: 20240088265
    Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form semiconductor devices having epitaxial growth laterally extending between inner spacer structures to mitigate issues caused by the inner spacer structures either being too thick or too thin. A directional etch is performed along the side of a multilayer fin to create a relatively narrow opening for a source or drain region to increase the usable fin space for forming the inner spacer structures. After the inner spacer structures are formed around ends of the semiconductor layers within the fin, the exposed ends of the semiconductor layers are laterally recessed inwards from the outermost sidewalls of the inner spacer structures. Accordingly, the epitaxial source or drain region is grown from the recessed semiconductor ends and thus fills in the recessed regions between the spacer structures.

  • Patent number: 11928957
    Abstract: An audio visual haptic signal reconstruction method includes first utilizing a large-scale audio-visual database stored in a central cloud to learn knowledge, and transferring same to an edge node; then combining, by means of the edge node, a received audio-visual signal with knowledge in the central cloud, and fully mining semantic correlation and consistency between modals; and finally fusing the semantic features of the obtained audio and video signals and inputting the semantic features to a haptic generation network, thereby realizing the reconstruction of the haptic signal. The method effectively solves the problems that the number of audio and video signals of a multi-modal dataset is insufficient, and semantic tags cannot be added to all the audio-visual signals in a training dataset by means of manual annotation. Also, the semantic association between heterogeneous data of different modals are better mined, and the heterogeneity gap between modals are eliminated.
