  • Patent number: 11706318
    Abstract: Disclosed implementations display information about entities in a structured way. In one aspect, a method is performed at a server system comprising memory and processors. The server receives a request from a client device for an information page associated with an entity belonging to a viewable media category. The server identifies predefined information types associated with the viewable media category and populates a first region of a search result page with information about the entity corresponding to the predefined information types. Responsive to determining that the first entity is available for streaming or downloading, the server populates a second region of the search result page with a location-based information type that is distinct from the set of predefined information types and populated using information about a location from which the first entity can be streamed or downloaded. The server transmits the search result page to the client device.

  • Publication number: 20230223302
    Abstract: A method includes forming a dielectric layer over an epitaxial source/drain region. An opening is formed in the dielectric layer. The opening exposes a portion of the epitaxial source/drain region. A barrier layer is formed on a sidewall and a bottom of the opening. An oxidation process is performing on the sidewall and the bottom of the opening. The oxidation process transforms a portion of the barrier layer into an oxidized barrier layer and transforms a portion of the dielectric layer adjacent to the oxidized barrier layer into a liner layer. The oxidized barrier layer is removed. The opening is filled with a conductive material in a bottom-up manner. The conductive material is in physical contact with the liner layer.
