  • Patent number: 10319678
    Abstract: A three dimensional or stacked circuit device includes a conductive channel cap on a conductor channel. The channel cap can be created via selective deposition or other process to prevent polishing down the conductive material to isolate the contacts. The conductor channel extends through a deck of multiple tiers of circuit elements that are activated via a gate. The gate is activated by electrical potential in the conductor channel. The conductive cap on the conductor channel can electrically connect the conductor channel to a bitline or other signal line, and/or to another deck of multiple circuit elements.

  • Patent number: 9176385
    Abstract: Methods of lithography, methods for forming patterning tools, and patterning tools are described. One such patterning tool include an active region that forms a first diffraction image on a lens when in use, and an inactive region that forms a second diffraction image on a lens when in use. The inactive region includes a pattern of phase shifting features formed in a substantially transparent material of the patterning tool. Patterning tools and methods, as described, can be used to compensate for lens distortion from effects such as localized heating.

  • Patent number: 8676180
    Abstract: A system and methods that inform users of calls placed to a mobile device via a currently disabled VSIM subscription include identifying the VSIM subscription that is currently enabled on the mobile device and sending an alert to the mobile device via the currently enabled VSIM subscription informing the user of the received call attempt. In an embodiment, the user may switch the enabled VSIM subscription in order to receive the incoming call. If the user switches enabled VSIM subscriptions to the subscription corresponding to the dialed number, the caller's service provider network may be informed so that a communication can then be established between the caller and the mobile device.
