Abstract: Semiconductor devices on a substrate with an alternative crystallographic surface orientation. Example devices includes gate-all-around (e.g., nanoribbon and nanosheet) and forksheet transistors. In an example, a substrate having a (110) crystallographic surface orientation forms the basis for the growth of alternating silicon germanium (SiGe) or germanium tin (GeSn) and silicon (Si) semiconductor layers. P-channel transistors may be formed using SiGe or GeSn nanoribbons while n-channel transistors are formed from Si nanoribbons. The crystallographic surface orientation of the SiGe or GeSn nanoribbons will reflect the same crystallographic surface orientation of the substrate, which leads to a higher hole mobility across the SiGe or GeSn nanoribbons and improved device performance.

Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage medium, for predicting a likelihood of a future computer memory failure. In one aspect training data inputs are obtained, where each training data input includes correctable memory error data that describes correctable errors that occurred in a computer memory and data indicating whether the correctable errors produced a failure of the computer memory. For each training data input, image representations of the correctable memory error data included in the training data input are generated. The image representations are processed using a machine learning model to output an estimated likelihood of a future failure of the computer memory. A difference between the estimated likelihood of the future failure of the computer memory and the data indicating whether the correctable errors produced a failure of the computer memory is computed. Values of model parameters are updated using the computed difference.
