Publication number: 20240114694Abstract: Backside integrated circuit capacitor structures. In an example, a capacitor structure includes a layer of ferroelectric material between first and second electrodes. The first electrode can be connected to a transistor terminal by a backside contact that extends downward from a bottom surface of the transistor terminal to the first electrode. The transistor terminal can be, for instance, a source or drain region, and the backside contact can be self-aligned with the source or drain region. The second electrode can be connected to a backside interconnect feature. In some cases, the capacitor has a height that extends through at least one backside interconnect layer. In some cases, the capacitor is a multi-plate capacitor in which the second conductor is one of a plurality of plate line conductors arranged in a staircase structure. The capacitor structure may be, for example, part of a non-volatile memory device or the cache of a processor.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2022Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: Intel CorporationInventors: Sourav Dutta, Nazila Haratipour, Uygar E.

Patent number: 6139576Abstract: New intraocular lenses (IOLs) and methods for producing IOLs are disclosed. The present methods include a combination of steps which increase the pull strength between the fixation member of the IOL and the optic of the IOL without requiring sophisticated high frequency corona discharge activation or plasma activation of the fixation member. The fixation members are doubly coated with primer components and silicone polymeric material precursor compositions before being secured to the optics. In addition, the optic members employed in the present intraocular lenses can be formed, for example, molded, without recesses to accommodate the fixation members. Thus, such recesses can be formed and provided with a quantity of the above-noted precursor composition after the optic members are produced. The doubly coated fixation members are then placed in the recesses and secured to the optic members. The present methods are straight forward, easy to practice and are cost effective in producing high quality IOLs.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 1999Date of Patent: October 31, 2000Assignee: AllerganInventors: Christopher E. Doyle, Bernard F. Grisoni, Richard S. Graham

Patent number: 5585049Abstract: A method of making an intraocular lens including attaching a fixation member to an optic to form an IOL assembly with a length of the fixation member between a location on a peripheral surface of the optic and a distal end of the fixation member being elongated and substantially straight. The substantially straight length of the fixation member is permanently deformed into a curved configuration suitable for implantation in an eye of a patient.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 1994Date of Patent: December 17, 1996Assignee: AllerganInventors: Bernard F. Grisoni, Christopher E. Doyle

Patent number: 5201763Abstract: An intraocular lens for implantation in an eye comprising a deformable silicone optic configured so that the optic can be deformed to permit the intraocular lens to be passed through a scleral tunnel incision no longer than about 3.2 mm into the eye. The intraocular lens can be provided in a range of diopter powers. When the intraocular lens is implanted in the eye, the optic has sufficient rigidity to be substantially free of optical distortion resulting from force from the eye acting on the intraocular lens and the optic is of sufficient size to substantially prevent glare resulting from interaction of light and the periphery of the optic.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 1992Date of Patent: April 13, 1993Assignee: Allergan, Inc.Inventors: Dan G. Brady, Bernard F. Grisoni, Christopher E. Doyle
