Abstract: This application relates to the field of memory technology, in particular to a method and a system for remapping a row address on a multichannel DIMM. The method is applied to a memory controller, comprising: receiving a first read/write access address and extracting a first channel row address from the first read/write access address; encrypting and mapping the first channel row address through a key-based mapping method to obtain a second channel row address that corresponds to the first channel row address within a predetermined address range; forming a second read/write access address based on the second channel row address and unextracted address information in the first read/write access address, and performing read/write access to the DIMM based on the second read/write access address. The present application can alleviate side channel attack without causing degradation of read/write performance.

Abstract: A data security method and data security system configured to applied to a memory controller are provided. The data security method comprises: receiving a data writing request, wherein the data writing request comprises data to be written to a storage module and a storage address of the data; acquiring verification information of the data; and writing the data into the storage address, and writing the verification information into a redundant ECC bit corresponding to the data. The data security method and data security system according to the present disclosure can achieve the secure storage and reading of the data without extra space overhead, while maintaining high bandwidth and throughput.

Abstract: Image security is becoming an increasingly important issue with the progress of deep learning based image manipulations, such as deep image inpainting and deep fakes. There has been considerable work to date on detecting such image manipulations using better and better algorithms, with little attention being paid to the possible role hardware advances may have for more powerful algorithms. This disclosure proposes to use a focal stack camera as a novel secure imaging device for localizing inpainted regions in manipulated images. Applying convolutional neural network (CNN) methods to focal stack images achieves significantly better detection accuracy compared to single image based detection.

Abstract: A method of producing uniform multilayer graphene by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is provided. The method is limited in size only by CVD reaction chamber size and is scalable to produce multilayer graphene films on a wafer scale that have the same number of layers of graphene throughout substantially the entire film. Uniform bilayer graphene may be produced using a method that does not require assembly of independently produced single layer graphene. The method includes a CVD process wherein a reaction gas is flowed in the chamber at a relatively low pressure compared to conventional processes and the temperature in the reaction chamber is thereafter decreased relatively slowly compared to conventional processes. One application for uniform multilayer graphene is transparent conductors. In processes that require multiple transfers of single layer graphene to achieve multilayer graphene structures, the disclosed method can reduce the number of process steps by at least half.

Abstract: Electrochemical sensors for the detection of select analytes are provided. The electrochemical sensors include a barrier layer having a substantially uniformed thickness disposed between a sensing layer and an ion exchange membrane. The barrier layer includes a two-dimensional nanomaterial. The barrier layer has a thickness of less than or equal to about 1 nm. The sensing layer has a thickness of less than or equal to about 10 nm. The sensing layer generates ions in response to select analytes. The barrier layer allows the generation ions to pass therethrough and travel into the ion exchange membrane. The barrier layer acts as a physical barrier to contaminants and larger molecules.

The method includes: applying an AC excitation signal to the channel region of the transistor; applying an AC drive signal to the transistor; delivering an analyte of interest to a channel region of a transistor; and monitoring a mixing current of the excitation signal and the drive signal through the transistor, where a change in the mixing current is indicative of the concentration of the analyte of interest.

Abstract: A light field imaging system with transparent photodetectors is presented. The light field imaging system includes: a stack of two or more detector planes, an imaging optic, and an image processor. The detector planes include one or more transparent photodetectors, such that transparent photodetectors have transparency greater than fifty percent (at one or more wavelengths) while simultaneously exhibiting responsivity greater than one amp per watt. The imaging optic is configured to receive light rays from a scene and refract the light rays towards the stack of two or more detector planes, such that the refracted light rays pass through the transparent detector planes and the refracted light rays are focused within the stack of detector planes. The image processor reconstruct a light field for the scene (at one of more wavelengths) using the light intensity distribution measured by each of the photodetectors.

The photodetector is comprised of: a substrate; a channel layer of a transistor deposited onto a top surface of the substrate; a source layer of the transistor deposited on the top surface of the substrate; a drain layer of the transistor deposited on the top surface of the substrate, the source layer and the drain layer disposed on opposing sides of the channel layer; a barrier layer deposited onto the channel layer; and a light absorbing layer deposited on the barrier layer. The light absorbing layer is configured to absorb light and, in response to light incident on the light absorbing layer, electrical conductance of the channel layer is changed through hot carrier tunneling from the light absorbing layer to the channel layer.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to sub-microelectronic circuitry, and more particularly to nanometer-scale articles, including nanoscale wires which can be selectively doped at various locations and at various levels. In some cases, the articles may be single crystals. The nanoscale wires can be doped, for example, differentially along their length, or radially, and either in terms of identity of dopant, concentration of dopant, or both. This may be used to provide both n-type and p-type conductivity in a single item, or in different items in close proximity to each other, such as in a crossbar array. The fabrication and growth of such articles is described, and the arrangement of such articles to fabricate electronic, optoelectronic, or spintronic devices and components.
