  • Patent number: 12232144
    Abstract: In some implementations, a method of wireless communications between a wireless communications network and wireless user equipment includes receiving, using a primary Time Division Duplex (TDD) configuration, data on a primary component carrier in a first frequency band. Using a secondary TDD configuration, data on a secondary component carrier is received in a second frequency band different from the first frequency band. A Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) for data received on the secondary component carrier is transmitted using a supplemental TDD configuration. A transmission or retransmission on the secondary component carrier uses a supplemental TDD configuration as well. The supplemental TDD configuration is different from the secondary TDD configuration. Furthermore, an uplink supplemental configuration may be different from a downlink supplemental configuration.

  • Publication number: 20240258233
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for staircase landing pads via rivets are described. A memory device may include a staircase region with a stack of materials that includes a set of word lines, where the set of word lines progressively decrease in length to form a staircase structure. The staircase region may additionally include a rivet that couples a first word line from the set of word lines with a conductive pillar. Additionally, the conductive pillar may traverse the stack perpendicularly to the set of word lines and may couple the first word line with supporting circuitry. In some cases, a first thickness of the first word line adjacent to the conductive pillar may be greater than a second thickness of other word lines adjacent to the conductive pillar. The staircase region may additionally include an oxide material that isolates the conductive pillar from the other word lines.

  • Publication number: 20240251552
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for NAND staircase landing pads conversion are described. A memory device may include one or more lateral word line contacts that may couple a word line with a conductive pillar that traverses a stack of materials of the memory device. The use of the lateral word line contact may allow for a conductive pillar to be coupled with a target word line without requiring an end of the conductive pillar to be placed directly on the word line. Additionally, the memory architecture described herein may allow for the target word line to be coupled with CMOS circuitry via a first conductive pillar without the use of a second conductive pillar, as the first conductive pillar may traverse the stack of materials and be coupled with the CMOS circuitry. Therefore, total quantity of conductive pillars may be reduced, and the risk of manufacturing errors may be lowered.

  • Patent number: 11972978
    Abstract: A method used in forming a conductive via of integrated circuitry comprises forming a lining laterally over sidewalls of an elevationally-elongated opening. The lining comprises elemental-form silicon. The elemental-form silicon of an uppermost portion of the lining is ion implanted in the elevationally-elongated opening. The ion-implanted elemental-form silicon of the uppermost portion of the lining is etched selectively relative to the elemental-form silicon of a lower portion of the lining below the uppermost portion that was not subjected to said ion implanting. The elemental-form silicon of the lower portion of the lining is reacted with a metal halide to form elemental-form metal in a lower portion of the elevationally-elongated opening that is the metal from the metal halide. Conductive material in the elevationally-elongated opening is formed atop and directly against the elemental-form metal. Other embodiments, including structure independent of method, are disclosed.
