Abstract: The present invention provides a PoC system (push-to-talk over cellular system) and a method for distributing media data in PoC. The PoC system includes a plurality of clients, a controlling server and a first participating server. In the present invention, since a media receiving port is established in the first participating server which manages at least two clients at the same time, and when a media data is going to be distributed to the clients managed by the first participating server, the controlling server delivers the media data to the media receiving port only. In addition, a multicast addressing technology is further used in the first participating server, therefore, the path of delivering media data is changed and the efficiency of media data delivery during a communication is improved.

Abstract: A method of forming a channel region for a MOSFET device in a strained silicon layer via employment of adjacent and surrounding silicon-germanium shapes, has been developed. The method features simultaneous formation of recesses in a top portion of a conductive gate structure and in portions of the semiconductor substrate not occupied by the gate structure or by dummy spacers located on the sides of the conductive gate structure. The selectively defined recesses will be used to subsequently accommodate silicon-germanium shapes, with the silicon-germanium shapes located in the recesses in the semiconductor substrate inducing the desired strained channel region. The recessing of the conductive gate structure and of semiconductor substrate portions reduces the risk of silicon-germanium bridging across the surface of sidewall spacers during epitaxial growth of the alloy layer, thus reducing the risk of gate to substrate leakage or shorts.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a high-density array of crown capacitors with increased capacitance while reducing process damage to the bottom electrodes is achieved. The process is particularly useful for crown capacitors for future DRAM circuits with minimum feature sizes of 0.18 micrometer or less. A conformal conducting layer is deposited over trenches in an interlevel dielectric (ILD) layer, and is polished back to form capacitor bottom electrodes. A novel photoresist mask and etching are then used to pattern the ILD layer to provide a protective interlevel dielectric structure between capacitors. The protective structures prevent damage to the bottom electrodes during subsequent processing. The etching also exposes portions of the outer surface of bottom electrodes for increased capacitance (>50%). In a first embodiment the ILD structure is formed between pairs of adjacent bottom electrodes, and in a second embodiment the ILD structure is formed between four adjacent bottom electrodes.
