Abstract: A device includes a fin extending from a semiconductor substrate; a gate stack over the fin; a first spacer on a sidewall of the gate stack; a source/drain region in the fin adjacent the first spacer; an inter-layer dielectric layer (ILD) extending over the gate stack, the first spacer, and the source/drain region, the ILD having a first portion and a second portion, wherein the second portion of the ILD is closer to the gate stack than the first portion of the ILD; a contact plug extending through the ILD and contacting the source/drain region; a second spacer on a sidewall of the contact plug; and an air gap between the first spacer and the second spacer, wherein the first portion of the ILD extends across the air gap and physically contacts the second spacer, wherein the first portion of the ILD seals the air gap.

Abstract: Methods and systems for reporting mobile application conversions are provided. The methods and systems described herein enable a producer of a mobile app to facilitate the transmission of action notifications to a plurality of mobile advertising networks through the transmission of a single action notification to an action reporting system. The action reporting system, in turn, translates the action notification, into one or more distinct action notifications recognizable and executable by one or more respective advertising networks which an app producer has previously identified as recipients of action notifications.

Abstract: A digital magazine server creates cover pages identifying relevant content items relevant to a user. Candidate feeds of content items are identified from various sources, with clusters of content items generated from content items included in various candidate feeds. Content items in various clusters are scored, and one or more content items are selected from each cluster. The selected content items are placed in a consolidated feed, which is used to create a cover page for viewing by a user of the digital magazine server. One or more advertisements may be included in a candidate feed, with the digital magazine server specifying a position within the cover page in which a content item associated with a candidate feed including an advertisement is presented.
