Publication number: 20240224505Abstract: A method used in forming memory circuitry comprises forming transistors individually comprising one source/drain region and another source/drain region. A channel region is between the one and the another source/drain regions. A conductive gate is operatively proximate the channel region. Digitline structures are formed that are individually directly electrically coupled to the another source/drain regions of multiple of the transistors. The digitline structures individually comprise a conductive digitline and an insulator material thereatop. The insulator material has a top. First insulating material is formed directly above the tops of the insulator material and laterally-over longitudinal sides of the digitline structures and covers across the one source/drain regions laterally-between immediately-adjacent of the digitline structures. Second insulating material is formed over the first insulating material.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2023Publication date: July 4, 2024Applicant: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Jordan D.

Publication number: 20200117498Abstract: A customer submits a request to a virtual computer system service to launch a virtual machine instance and to join this instance to a managed directory. The service may obtain, from the customer, a domain name and Internet Protocol addresses for the selected directory, which is then stored within a systems management server. When launched, the instance may initiate an agent, which may communicate with the systems management server to obtain the configuration information. The agent may use this configuration information to establish a communications channel with the managed directory and create a temporary set of computer credentials that may be used to verify that the customer is authorized to join the virtual machine instance to the managed directory. If the credentials are valid, the managed directory may generate a computer account within the managed directory, which may be used to join the virtual machine instance to the managed directory.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2019Publication date: April 16, 2020Inventors: Lekshmi Unnikrishnan, Manivannan Sundaram, Martin Chen Mao, Sivaprasad Venkata Padisetty, Praerit Garg, Sameer Palande, Bradley Scott Murphy, Manoj Krishna Ghosh
