Abstract: An ammonium fluoride gas may be used to form a protection layer for one or more interlayer dielectric layers, one or more insulating caps, and/or one or more source/drain regions of a semiconductor device during a pre-clean etch process. The protection layer can be formed through an oversupply of nitrogen trifluoride during the pre-clean etch process. The oversupply of nitrogen trifluoride causes an increased formation of ammonium fluoride, which coats the interlayer dielectric layer(s), the insulating cap(s), and/or the source/drain region(s) with a thick protection layer. The protection layer protects the interlayer dielectric layer(s), the insulating cap(s), and/or the source/drain region(s) during the pre-clean process from being etched by fluorine ions formed during the pre-clean process.

Abstract: A battery module includes an insulating base, a pair of electrodes and multiple battery packs. Each electrode is installed to the insulating base and has a bridge portion and a wire connecting part exposed from the insulating base, and a pair of lugs is extended smoothly from each battery pack, and an end of at least a part of the lugs is attached to each bridge portion correspondingly. Therefore, the lug is not being twisted or deformed easily, and the battery module may have good conductive efficiency, long service life, and convenience of changing the battery pack.

Abstract: A method, comprising: detecting an outage of at least one functionality in a live streaming; performing an first operation toward a second user terminal; storing data of the first operation in a database of the first user terminal; and displaying an effect corresponding to the first operation during the outage. The present disclosure may store the data of operation performed by the user terminal during outage and process the operation after the outage is recovered. Therefore, the streamers and viewers may feel interested and satisfied, instead of feeling anxious, and the user experience may be enhanced.

Abstract: In general, embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods and computer readable media for dynamically augmenting relevance rankings using data from external ratings sources.

Abstract: Techniques for training a machine learning model to determine a predicted time distribution related to electronic communications are discussed herein. The machine learning model is trained based at least in part on time to open data indicative of respective time to open terms that begin at respective transmission times for electronic communications and end at respective electronic communication access event times. Additionally, based at least in part on the predicted time distribution determined by the machine learning model, respective access scores for an electronic communication being accessed via the user device at the respective times are determined to provide a new electronic communication for rendering via an electronic interface of a user device.

Abstract: Techniques for integrating freshness and relevance within a programmatic relevance service are discussed herein. Some embodiments may include a relevance service system, including one or more batch processors and one or more online processors. The one or more batch processors may be configured to track message recipient behavior from electronic clickstream data, and generate models of functions that predict access probability for individual users. The one or more online processors may use the access probability calculated in batch to facilitate on demand deal ranking adjustments that account for freshness as informed by the predicted access probability for communications sent to the user.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a processing tool. The tool includes a housing enclosing a processing chamber, and an input/output port configured to pass a wafer through the housing into and out of the processing chamber. A back-side macro-inspection system is arranged within the processing chamber and is configured to image a back side of the wafer. A front-side macro-inspection system is arranged within the processing chamber and is configured to image a front side of the wafer according to a first image resolution.

Abstract: The subject invention aims to solve the problem of production of glucose accompanying the production of galactooligosaccharides after milk raw material is treated with lactase, by additionally adding transglucosidase to convert glucose to functional isomalto-oligosaccharide. The subject invention relates to a process for the production of a milk product enhanced with oligo-saccharides, characterized in that lactase and transglucosidase are used to treat milk raw materials. The subject invention further relates to the milk product of the process of the invention, whose oligo-saccharide content reaches a functional level. Human physiological effect assays confirm that the milk product increases intestinal probiotics, reduces harmful intestinal bacteria, improves the intestinal bacterial flora, reduces blood total cholesterol, reduces blood LDL cholesterol, increases blood HDL cholesterol, and improves the immunity, and may be used as low glycemic index (GI) dietary supplements.
