  • Patent number: 11025507
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for modifying metadata associated with database objects obtained from providers, such as cloud providers, are disclosed. Modifying metadata associated with database objects obtained from cloud providers may include identifying resources in a computer network that originate from providers, such as cloud providers that do not have associated metadata. A user interface that includes the resources may be generated, and the resource may receive input to select the resources and a descriptor that may be associated with the resources. The selected resources may then be associated, in a configuration management dataset, with metadata derived from the selected descriptor. The metadata may indicate an association of the selected resources to a parameter.

  • Publication number: 20210147548
    Abstract: An IFN-anti-PD-L1 fusion protein, a pharmaceutical composition and a kit containing the same for treating tumors are disclosed. The IFN-anti-PD-L1 fusion protein of the present invention can simultaneously target PD-L1 and IFN receptors, and the activation of IFN signals in a tumor microenvironment (TME) can enhance the PD-1/PD-L1 therapy against tumors by inducing stronger T cell activation. The anti-PD-L1 antibody can be used to specifically deliver immunomodulatory molecules to tumor tissues, and the fusion protein results in the generation of multiple feedforward responses, which can increase the targeting effect, reduce the toxicity, and enhance the response to IFN therapy, thereby maximizing the anti-tumor effect.

  • Publication number: 20210028015
    Abstract: A method for removing a native oxide film from a semiconductor substrate includes repetitively depositing layers of germanium on the native oxide and heating the substrate causing the layer of germanium to form germanium oxide, desorbing a portion of the native oxide film. The process is repeated until the oxide film is removed. A subsequent layer of strontium titanate can be deposited on the semiconductor substrate, over either residual germanium or a deposited germanium layer. The germanium can be converted to silicon germanium oxide by exposing the strontium titanate to oxygen.

  • Publication number: 20210028009
    Abstract: A method for processing a substrate includes positioning a silicon substrate in a deposition chamber. One or more intermediate layers are deposited on a surface of the silicon. The one or more intermediate layers can include strontium, which combines with the silicon to form strontium silicide. Alternatively, the one or more intermediate layers comprise germanium. A layer of amorphous strontium titanate is deposited on the one or more intermediate layers in a transient environment in which oxygen pressure is reduced while temperature is increased. The substrate is then exposed to an oxidizing and annealing atmosphere that oxidizes the one or more intermediate layers and converts the layer of amorphous strontium titanate to crystalline strontium titanate.
