Abstract: Technologies for a field effect transistor (FET) with a ferroelectric gate dielectric are disclosed. In an illustrative embodiment, a perovskite stack is grown on a buffer layer as part of manufacturing a transistor. The perovskite stack includes one or more doped semiconductor layers alternating with other lattice-matched layers, such as undoped semiconductor layers. Growing the doped semiconductor layers on lattice-matched layers can improve the quality of the doped semiconductor layers. The lattice-matched layers can be preferentially etched away, leaving the doped semiconductor layers as fins for a ribbon FET. In another embodiment, an interlayer can be deposited on top of a semiconductor layer, and a ferroelectric layer can be deposited on the interlayer. The interlayer can bridge a gap in lattice parameters between the semiconductor layer and the ferroelectric layer.

Abstract: A method and structures are used to fabricate a nanosheet semiconductor device. Nanosheet fins including nanosheet stacks including alternating silicon (Si) layers and silicon germanium (SiGe) layers are formed on a substrate and etched to define a first end and a second end along a first axis between which each nanosheet fin extends parallel to every other nanosheet fin. The SiGe layers are undercut in the nanosheet stacks at the first end and the second end to form divots, and a dielectric is deposited in the divots. The SiGe layers between the Si layers are removed before forming source and drain regions of the nanosheet semiconductor device such that there are gaps between the Si layers of each nanosheet stack, and the dielectric anchors the Si layers. The gaps are filled with an oxide that is removed after removing the dummy gate and prior to forming the replacement gate.

Abstract: In general, the present disclosure is directed to locking arrangements for use with optical subassembly housings, such as small form-factor pluggable (SFFP) housings, that include a handle member configured to rotate about the housing to allow a user to select a target/desired orientation. Preferably, the locking arrangement couples to a pluggable housing that is configured to removably couple into a receptacle of an optical transceiver cage or other suitable enclosure. The locking arrangement further includes a handle member rotatably coupled to the pluggable housing, the handle member being configured to allow the pluggable housing to releasably lock within the receptacle. The handle member is also preferably configured to maintain a user-selected orientation such that the handle member remains at a given angle relative to the pluggable housing in the absence of a user-supplied force.

Abstract: Cell identification and classification is a well-known problem in the pathology domain that help identify microenvironments. In addition to the characteristic of each cell, its interactions with the neighboring regions or other cells is also important. This involves correct identification of neighboring elements and analytically representing the interactions between them. This disclosure presents a system that combines many such features, some hand engineered and some machine derived through training of Deep Learning algorithms that can be used to study the microenvironments.
