Abstract: In general, the disclosure describes techniques for facilitating trust in neural networks using a trusted neural network system. For example, described herein are multi-headed, trusted neural network systems that can be trained to satisfy one or more constraints as part of the training process, where such constraints may take the form of one or more logical rules and cause the objective function of at least one the heads of the trusted neural network system to steer, during machine learning model training, the overall objective function for the system toward an optimal solution that satisfies the constraints. The constraints may be non-temporal, temporal, or a combination of non-temporal and temporal. The constraints may be directly compiled to a neural network or otherwise used to train the machine learning model.

Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form semiconductor devices having backside contacts. Sacrificial plugs are formed first within a substrate at particular locations to align with source and drain regions during a later stage of processing. Another wafer is subsequently bonded to the surface of the substrate and is thinned to effectively transfer different material layers to the top surface of the substrate. One of the transferred layers acts as a seed layer for the growth of additional semiconductor material used to form semiconductor devices. The source and drain regions of the semiconductor devices are sufficiently aligned over the previously formed sacrificial plugs. A backside portion of the substrate may be removed to expose the sacrificial plugs from the backside. Removal of the plugs and replacement of the recesses left behind with conductive material forms the conductive backside contacts to the source or drain regions.

Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form semiconductor devices having strained channel regions. In an example, semiconductor nanoribbons of silicon germanium (SiGe) or germanium tin (GeSn) may be formed and subsequently annealed to drive the germanium or tin inwards along a portion of the semiconductor nanoribbons thus increasing the germanium or tin concentration through a central portion along the lengths of the one or more nanoribbons. Specifically, a nanoribbon may have a first region at one end of the nanoribbon having a first germanium concentration, a second region at the other end of the nanoribbon having substantially the same first germanium concentration (e.g., within 5%), and a third region between the first and second regions having a second germanium concentration higher than the first concentration. A similar material gradient may also be created using tin. The change in material composition (gradient) along the nanoribbon length imparts a compressive strain.
