Abstract: Disclosed are apparatuses, systems, and techniques to perform and facilitate secure ladder computational operations whose iterative execution depends on secret values associated with input data. Disclosed embodiments use masking factors that re-blind secret data without exposing the unmasked secret data between iterations of the ladder computations. Some disclosed embodiments use Montgomery multiplication techniques to facilitate secret data masking by efficiently avoiding modular division operations. Disclosed embodiments significantly reduce the vulnerability of ladder computations to adversarial side-channel attacks.

Abstract: Provided are a bispecific antibody and use thereof. The bispecific antibody comprises a B7-H4-targeting antigen-binding domain and a 4-1BB-targeting antigen-binding domain. The bispecific antibody has one or two or three sites for binding to 4-1BB, along with a novel fully human B7-H4 antibody. The bispecific antibody specifically binds to tumor cells by targeting B7-H4, reducing toxicity induced by 4-1BB activation. In addition, the bispecific antibody of the present invention comprises a human Fc fragment, and thus retains the binding of Fc to FcRn and has a longer half-life.

Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes forming a first array of mandrels on a hardmask layer disposed on an uppermost surface of a semiconductor substrate. First sidewall image transfer spacers are formed on opposing longitudinal sidewalls of each mandrel in the first array of mandrels. A second array of mandrels is formed on the hardmask layer. Each mandrel in the second array of mandrels is laterally separated from each mandrel in the first array of mandrels by the first sidewall image transfer spacers. Second sidewall image transfer spacers are formed on opposing transversal sidewalls of the first array of mandrels and the second array of mandrels. Portions of the second sidewall image transfer spacers are selectively removed to define a crosslink fin pattern to be transferred to the semiconductor substrate.
