  • Patent number: 11328988
    Abstract: A device includes a device level having a metallization structure coupled to a semiconductor device and a transistor above the device level. The transistor has a body including a single crystal group III-V or group IV semiconductor material, a source structure on a first portion of the body and a drain structure on a second portion of the body, where the source structure is separate from the drain structure. The transistor further includes a gate structure including a first gate structure portion in a recess in the body and a second gate structure portion between the source structure and the drain structure. A source contact is coupled with the source structure and a drain contact is coupled with the drain structure. The source contact is in contact with the metallization structure in the device level.

  • Publication number: 20220138696
    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for workflow service email integration. In some examples, an email application executed on a client device receives an email message that includes a workflow micro application. The workflow micro application has a workflow information component, and evaluation component, and a workflow actions component. The evaluation component identifies a presence or an absence of a management software development kit (SDK) on the client device. The email application renders a user interface that shows or hides a workflow actions interface area based on the presence or absence of the management SDK.

  • Publication number: 20220137948
    Abstract: A computing device receives one or more idle state conditions that indicate an idle device state for a class of devices associated with the computing device. The computing device receives an over the air (OTA) update of a firmware of the computing device, where the OTA update is to be applied by the computing device responsive to detecting the idle device state of the computing device. The computing device identifies a device state of the computing device and determines whether the device state satisfies the one or more idle state conditions.

  • Patent number: 11322620
    Abstract: Described herein are apparatuses, systems, and methods associated with metal-assisted transistors. A single crystal semiconductor material may be seeded from a metal. The single crystal semiconductor material may form a channel region, a source, region, and/or a drain region of the transistor. The metal may form the source contact or drain contact, and the source region, channel region, and drain region may be stacked vertically on the source contact or drain contact. Alternatively, a metal-assisted semiconductor growth process may be used to form a single crystal semiconductor material on a dielectric material adjacent to the metal. The portion of the semiconductor material on the dielectric material may be used to form the transistor. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20220109072
    Abstract: Integrated circuit transistor structures are disclosed that reduce band-to-band tunneling between the channel region and the source/drain region of the transistor, without adversely increasing the extrinsic resistance of the device. In an example embodiment, the structure includes one or more spacer configured to separate the source and/or drain from the channel region. The spacer(s) regions comprise a semiconductor material that provides a relatively high conduction band offset (CBO) and a relatively low valence band offset (VBO) for PMOS devices, and a relatively high VBO and a relatively low CBO for NMOS devices. In some cases, the spacer includes silicon, germanium, and carbon (e.g., for devices having germanium channel). The proportions may be at least 10% silicon by atomic percentage, at least 85% germanium by atomic percentage, and at least 1% carbon by atomic percentage. Other embodiments are implemented with III-V materials.

  • Publication number: 20220093586
    Abstract: A monolithic three-dimensional integrated circuit may include multiple transistor levels separated by one or more levels of metallization. An upper level transistor structure may include a monocrystalline channel material over a bottom gate stack. The channel material and the gate stack materials may be formed on a donor substrate at any suitable temperature, and subsequently transferred from the donor substrate to a host substrate that includes lower-level circuitry. The upper-level transistor may be patterned from the transferred layers so that the gate electrode includes one or more bonding layers. Source and drain material may be patterned from a source and drain material layer that was transferred from the donor substrate along with the channel material, or source and drain material may be grown at low temperatures from the transferred channel material.

  • Patent number: 11256609
    Abstract: A machine learning (ML) model is created via training or re-training one or more ML algorithms using past release(s) data (e.g., data comprising of requirements and corresponding test cases). The ML model comprises various clusters and these clusters are dynamically created every time when the ML model is trained (or retrained). One or more requirements exist in each cluster, and each requirement has one or more test cases associated with it. New requirements are mapped to a particular cluster and then test cases are compared against a universe of other test cases to determine whether to add a particular test case to a list of test cases that test the new requirement.

  • Publication number: 20220038407
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for integrating client applications with hosted applications. For example, an email can be received from an email client. It can then be determined whether the email is associated with a hosted application. In response to a determination that the email is associated with the hosted application, a request can be made to a connector for a calendar object. The calendar object is then received and returned to the email client.
