Abstract: Memory cells each having a cell capacitor and a cell transistor, which are arranged in a vertical cell structure, are provided in the cell array of a DRAM. By means of a deep implantation or a shallow implantation and subsequent epitaxial growth of silicon, a buried source/drain layer is formed, from which lower source/drain regions of the cell transistors emerge. The upper edge of the buried source/drain layer can be aligned with respect to a lower edge of a gate electrode of the cell transistor and this results in a reduction of a gate/drain capacitance and also a leakage current between the gate electrode and the lower source/drain region. A body connection plate for the connection of the channel regions is applied to the substrate surface and contact holes are introduced into the body connection plate. Upper source/drain regions of the cell transistors are formed by implantation through the contact holes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing novel reactive organic compounds containing poly-DOPO and having a higher phosphorus content than known comparable DOPO (9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phospha-phenenthrene-10-oxide) adducts, and to the use thereof for flameproofing thermoplastic polymers, such as polyesters and polyamides. The same flameproofing effect is achieved with smaller additive quantities than previously, thus reducing the influence of the physical, especially textile-physical properties of the polymers. The adducts containing poly-DOPO are formed by reacting DOPO with acetylenes carrying reactive groups, in the presence of a catalyst.

Abstract: The scheduler receives a first message from one of the plurality of computer systems and registers the first message in a first queue. Then, the scheduler receives a second message from one of the plurality of computer systems. The second message has a logical dependency on the first message. The second message is registered in a second queue and in the first queue, wherein the queue entry of the second message in the first queue occurs after the queue entry of the first message in the first queue. The scheduler identifies the logical dependency of the second message on the first message by the order of the corresponding queue entries in the first queue and finally releases the first message for processing before releasing the second message according to the logical dependency.
