Abstract: Organometallic radiation resist compositions are described based on tin ions with alkyl ligands. Some of the compositions have branched alkyl ligands to provide for improved patterning contrast while maintaining a high degree of solution stability. Blends of compounds with distinct alkyl ligands can provide further improvement in the patterning. High resolution patterning with a half-pitch of no more than 25 nm can be achieved with a line width roughness of no more than about 4.5 nm. Synthesis techniques have been developed that allow for the formation of alkyl tin oxide hydroxide compositions with very low metal contamination.

Abstract: Precursor solutions for radiation patternable coatings are formed with an organic solvent and monoalkyl tin trialkoxides in which the water content of the solvent is adjusted to be within 10 percent of a selected value. Generally, the water content of the solvent is adjusted through water addition, although water removal can also be used. In some embodiments, the adjusted water content of the solvent can be from about 250 ppm by weight to about 10,000 ppm by weight. With the appropriate selection of ligands, the adjusted precursor solutions can be stable for at least about 42 days, and in some cases at least 8 months.

Abstract: Patterning compositions are described based on organo tin dodecamers with hydrocarbyl ligands, oxo ligands, hydroxo ligands and carboxylato ligands. Alternative dodecamer embodiments have organo tin ligands in place of hydrocarbyl ligands. The organo tin ligands can be incorporated into the dodecamers from a monomer with the structure (RCC)3SnQ, where R is a hydrocarbyl group and Q is a alkyl tin moiety with a carbon bonded to the Sn atom of the monomer and with a Sn bonded as a replacement of a quaternary carbon atom with bonds to 4 carbon atoms. Some or all of the carboxylato and hydroxyl ligands can be replaced with fluoride ions. Good EUV patterning results are obtained with the dodecamer based patterning compositions.

Abstract: A hybrid edge and cloud system for detecting and identifying bird vocalizations including an edge device having an edge neural network. The edge neural network is trained with audio samples for making predictions about identification of the bird vocalizations. The system includes an audio sensor connected to the edge neural network for sending sound information to the edge neural network. The system includes a cloud computing system having a cloud neural network for processing the sound information, a first storage service, a second storage service, and a hit table which stores metadata about sound detections. The edge neural network generates a score for each of the trained audio samples based on predictions made from a sound audio clip and selects a top scoring audio sample. The hybrid edge and cloud system includes a browsing device having access to the cloud computing system and may request information from the hit table.

Abstract: Systems and methods for estimating a ventilatory threshold for a patient and estimating likelihood of pulmonary arterial hypertension are provided. An example method includes determining ratios of minute ventilation to rate of oxygen uptake based on breath-by-breath data for a patient. The example method also includes determining a ventilatory threshold based upon the determined ratios and determining a score based upon an end-tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PetCO2) value at the determined ventilatory threshold and a minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production relationship (VE/VCO2) value at the determined ventilatory threshold. The method also includes using the score to estimate a likelihood that the patient has pulmonary arterial hypertension and causing the estimated likelihood to be displayed on a user interface.

Abstract: Organometallic solutions have been found to provide high resolution radiation based patterning using thin coatings. The patterning can involve irradiation of the coated surface with a selected pattern and developing the pattern with a developing agent to form the developed image. The patternable coatings may be susceptible to positive-tone patterning or negative-tone patterning based on the use of an organic developing agent or an aqueous acid or base developing agent. The radiation sensitive coatings can comprise a metal oxo/hydroxo network with organic ligands. A precursor solution can comprise an organic liquid and metal polynuclear oxo-hydroxo cations with organic ligands having metal carbon bonds and/or metal carboxylate bonds.
