  • Publication number: 20210082805
    Abstract: An example via contact patterning method includes providing a pattern of alternating trench contacts and gates over a support structure. For each pair of adjacent trench contacts and gates, a trench contact is electrically insulated from an adjacent gate by a dielectric material and/or multiple layers of different dielectric materials, and the gates are recessed with respect to the trench contacts. The method further includes wrapping a protective layer of one or more dielectric materials, and a sacrificial helmet material on top of the trench contacts to protect them during the via contact patterning and etch processes for forming via contacts over one or more gates. Such a method may advantageously allow increasing the edge placement error margin for forming via contacts of metallization stacks.

  • Patent number: 10944642
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein enable a receipt of a first input representative of a risk score for a data type and a plurality of second inputs representative of a plurality of a plurality of setting evaluations of a network-based application; and a presentation of a first polygonal shape based on the first input, a plurality of second polygonal shapes, and a third polygonal shape based on the second inputs such that the first polygonal shape and the second polygonal shapes are concentric with each other and such that the first polygonal shape and the third polygonal shape are presented over the second polygonal shapes. The presentation enables a user to readily visualize a set of areas where the first polygonal shape and the third polygonal shape differ in order to determine how the network-based application is compliant and non-compliant with the first input.
