  • Publication number: 20240072145
    Abstract: Gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having pre-spacer-deposition cut gates are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a first vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires and a second vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires. A first gate stack is over the first vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires, and a second gate stack is over the second vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires. An end of the second gate stack is spaced apart from an end of the first gate stack by a gap. The integrated circuit structure also includes a dielectric structure having a first portion providing a gate spacer along sidewalls of the first gate stack, a second portion providing a gate spacer along sidewalls of the second gate stack, and a third portion filling the gap, the third portion contiguous with the first and second portions.

  • Patent number: 11907520
    Abstract: Provided is a method for configuring at least one rule, e.g., using a graphical user interface. The method may include displaying a graphical user interface including a polygon having at least three edges and an icon at a first position within the polygon. Each edge of the polygon may be associated with a potential outcome of at least one rule. An input to move the icon to a second position within the polygon may be received. The graphical user interface may be displayed with the icon at the second position within the polygon. A distance from the second position of the icon to each edge of the polygon may be determined. The rule(s) may be adjusted based on the distance from the second position of the icon to each edge of the polygon. A system and computer program product are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11901164
    Abstract: A method is disclosed, which comprises estimating a first value of a parameter of a component, prior to a use of the component in a reactor. In an example, the parameter of the component is to change during the use of the component in the reactor. The component may be treated, subsequent to the use of the component in the reactor. A second value of the parameter of the component may be estimated, subsequent to treating the component. The second value may be compared with the first value, where a reuse of the component in the reactor is to occur in response to the second value being within a threshold range of the first value.

  • Publication number: 20240023980
    Abstract: A surgical guide that includes a front portion and a rear portion that is opposite the front portion, and at least one cut slot extending from the front portion to the rear portion. The at least one cut slot defines a vertical and a horizontal range of motion that extends beyond the lateral dimensions of the at least one cut slot. An alternative surgical guide is disclosed that has a front portion with a front surface and a rear portion that has a rear surface. The surgical guide includes at least one cut slot extending from the front surface to the rear surface which provides fluid communication therebetween. The at least one cut slot has edges defining a vertical and horizontal range of motion for a first depth has bounds defining a horizontal range of motion for a second depth of the at least one cut slot.

  • Publication number: 20230088846
    Abstract: The present technology relates to surgical drilling devices, and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments, a surgical drilling device includes a drill bit and a retraction mechanism. The retraction mechanism can include a housing, a slide assembly within the housing and operably coupled to the drill bit, a spring element engaging the slide assembly, and a locking element coupled to the slide assembly. The locking element can be movable between a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration based on an amount of force applied by the drill bit to the slide assembly. When in the locked configuration, the locking element can secure the slide assembly to the housing. When in the unlocked configuration, the locking element can allow the spring element to displace the slide assembly proximally within the housing to retract the drill bit.

  • Patent number: 11420599
    Abstract: There is provided a system and method of cleaning surfaces of an interior cabin space of a contamination comprising a microbial and viral load. The method includes the steps of sealing the interior cabin space and placing water, and a solid or gel pack, into a container and generating a vortex the container by rotating an impeller. The agitation causes the solid or gel pack to release a gaseous cleaning agent. An air-borne spray exiting from the container spreads throughout the interior cabin space to coat the surfaces to be cleaned within the interior cabin space. The cabin is maintained closed for an effective time period while the coating from the air-borne spray dwells on the surfaces to eliminate or substantially reduce the load of the contamination.
