  • Publication number: 20240121943
    Abstract: Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having first conductive structures extending along a first direction. Spaced-apart upwardly-opening container-shapes are over the first conductive structures. Each of the container-shapes has a first sidewall region, a second sidewall region, and a bottom region extending from the first sidewall region to the second sidewall region. Each of the first and second sidewall regions includes a lower source/drain region, an upper source/drain region, and a channel region between the upper and lower source/drain regions. The lower source/drain regions are electrically coupled with the first conductive structures. Second conductive structures extend along a second direction which crosses the first direction. The second conductive structures have gate regions operatively adjacent the channel regions. Storage elements are electrically coupled with the upper source/drain regions. Some embodiments include methods of forming integrated assemblies.

  • Patent number: 11941600
    Abstract: In a method for advanced identification of a customer, a customer may remotely place an order, intending to later go to a store to pick up the ordered item. The store may have a pick-up area (e.g., at the back of the store) where the customer can go to pick up the ordered item. To save the customer time, the customer may be identified when she enters the store so that an employee can obtain her ordered item and have it ready to pick up by the time the customer walks through the store and arrives at the pick-up area.

  • Publication number: 20130186268
    Abstract: This disclosure describes an automatic adjusting natural gas dehydration system. The dehydration system includes a still column, a reboiler, a pump and an absorber column suitable for circulating a desiccant, The absorber column includes inlet and outlet ports for receiving a stream of natural gas. The method automatically adjusts the flow rate the desiccant and the temperature of the desiccant within the reboiler in response to the moisture content of the natural gas exiting the absorber column after contacting the desiccant.
