Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form semiconductor devices that include a gate cut formed after the formation of source/drain contacts. In an example, a semiconductor device includes a gate structure around or otherwise on a semiconductor region that extends from a source region to a drain region. Conductive contacts formed over the source and drain regions along a source/drain trench. The gate structure may be interrupted with a dielectric gate cut that further extends past the gate trench and into the source/drain trench where it can cut into one or more of the contacts. The contacts are formed before the gate cut to ensure complete fill of conductive material when forming the contacts. Accordingly, a liner structure on the conductive contacts is also broken by the intrusion of the gate cut and does not extend further up or down the sidewalls of the gate cut.

Abstract: Techniques are provided to form semiconductor devices that include one or more gate cuts having a layer of polymer material at edges of the gate cut. The polymer layer may be provided as a byproduct of the etching process used to form the gate cut recess through the gate structure, and can protect any exposed portions of the source or drain regions from certain subsequent processes. The gate structure may be interrupted between two transistors with a gate cut that extends through an entire thickness of the gate structure and includes a dielectric material to electrically isolate the portions of the gate structure on either side of the gate cut. The edges of the gate cut may be lined with a polymer layer that is also on any exposed portions of the source or drain regions that were exposed during the etching process used to form the gate cut recess.

Abstract: Merchants provide incentives for customer transactions on accounts issued to them by issuers. Incentives include a merchant making a donation to entities with whom the merchants and/or the consumers have an affinity such as residence in the community. Each merchant can define the donation to be percentage of the transaction amount. Cryptographically secure chains are provided for uniquely labeling each such transaction and each such donation by way of incorporating role-based digital wallets and multiple synchronized transactional blockchains. Where the donations are used to purchase an Internet-of-Things (IOT) enabled system, real and/or near-real time usage information can be received and transmitted to the logical addresses of the customers and or the merchants so as to confirm efficacy of the donations.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing refactored multiply-and-accumulate operations is provided. A summing array includes a plurality of non-volatile memory elements arranged in columns. Each non-volatile memory element in the summing array is programmed to a high resistance state or a low resistance state based on weights of a neural network. The summing array is configured to generate a summed signal for each column based, at least in part, on a plurality of input signals. A multiplying array is coupled to the summing array, and includes a plurality of non-volatile memory elements. Each non-volatile memory element in the multiplying array is programmed to a different conductance level based on the weights of the neural network. The multiplying array is configured to generate an output signal based, at least in part, on the summed signals from the summing array.

Abstract: An open loop cashless payment system incents a consumer account holder to transact in a physical store with a merchant who agrees to make an auditable donation to a charity when the transaction is conducted on an account issued to the consumer account holder. The consumer account holder may direct the donation to a specific charity within a predetermined geographically determined community where the transaction was physically conducted. The consumer account holder can register an obligation to make a donation matching that of the merchant, where the consumer account holder's donation is initially paid by the consumer account's issuer for reimbursement by the consumer account holder to the issuer after the consumer account holder receives their account statement. The merchant's acquirer, the issuer, and a transaction handler for the issuer and acquirer may also make donations as directed by the consumer account holder.

Abstract: An issuer bank loads varying sponsor provided stored value amounts to inactive Virtual Payment Cards (VPCs), where the sponsor authorizes merchants and charities to receive merchant-defined donations incident to authorized transactions on the VPCs. The sponsor gifts each inactive VPC to a respective user of web access device by way of data corresponding to the inactive VPC. Each web access device transmits activation data to the issuer bank to active the inactive VPC. Each activated VPC is used to conduct an online transaction with a merchant. The merchant's acquirer bank sends an authorization for delivery to the issuer bank to validate the transaction amount and the merchant. If the issuer bank sends an authorization response to the acquirer bank indicating that the transaction is authorized, the merchant tenders goods and/or services for the transaction, and the merchant makes a merchant-defined donation to the one or more of the charities.

Abstract: Customers receive an incentive with use of an installed cellphone app to image an AR-bearing ad. Matches between data from the customer's accounts for each merchant are compared to the data in association with the customer's logical identifier for their cellphone, and particularly with each incidence of a rendering on their display screen of an AR view of a product advertisement containing the AR-triggering symbol to initiate the corresponding AR enhanced view of the ad. In conjunction with chronological time stamping of occurrences, a likelihood is derived that the customer's viewing of the AR enhanced product advertisement influenced the potential customer's subsequent purchase of the corresponding advertised product as evidenced within the potential customer's rich transactional data from the customer's debit and/or credit accounts. The certainty of each match is determined to further initiate the merchant's incentive to the customer which may be the merchant's donation to a community program.

Abstract: A method for changing operation modes includes receiving disaster information from trending data, a newsfeed, or an alert message; upon detecting at least one redirection trigger from the disaster information, configuring a loyalty system to operate in a redirection mode; receiving or accessing data associated with a transaction between a customer and a merchant; determining, from at least one of customer information and merchant information in the data associated with the transaction, a donation amount and a location associated with the transaction; when the loyalty system is configured to operate in a redirection mode, generating signals to cause accrual of at least a portion of the donation amount to a redirection account based on the location associated with the transaction; and generating signals to cause accrual of any remaining portion of the donation amount to one or more defined donation accounts based on charity catchment area parameters.
