摘要:
A silicide having variable internal metal concentration tuned to surface conditions at the interface between the silicide and adjoining layers is employed within an integrated circuit. Higher silicon/metal (silicon-rich) ratios are employed near the interfaces to adjoining layers to reduce lattice mismatch with underlying polysilicon or overlying oxide, thereby reducing stress and the likelihood of delamination. A lower silicon/metal ratio is employed within an internal region of the silicide, reducing resistivity. The variable silicon/metal ratio is achieved by controlling reactant gas concentrations or flow rates during deposition of the silicide. Thinner suicides with less likelihood of delamination or metal oxidation may thus be formed.

A method for localization refinement of inspection patterns comprises the steps of providing a template image comprising pixels in a pattern, each pixel having an intensity, providing an input image having a same pattern of pixels as the template image and calculating an energy function by weighting a sum of modified optical flow constraints at locations of the pixels of both the template image and the input image to determine a shift and rotation between the pattern of the template image and the input image.

A system for deriving final display parameters for a wide range of MR images consists of a feature generator utilizing both histogram and spatial information computed from an input MR image, a wavelet transform within the feature generator for compressing the size of the feature vector, a competitive layer based neural network for clustering MR images into different subclasses, a bi-modal linear estimation network and a radial bases function network based non-linear estimator for each subclass, as well as a data fusion system using estimates from both estimators to compute the final display parameters.
摘要:
A method that includes forming a chamber in a substrate, forming a silicon layer overlying the chamber, etching the silicon layer to remove selected regions and retain a selected portion overlying the chamber, the selected portion being at a location and having dimensions that correspond to a location and to dimensions of a nozzle, and forming a first metal layer adjacent to the selected portion. The method also includes forming a path in the substrate to expose the chamber concurrently with removing the selected portion of the silicon layer to expose the nozzle, the nozzle being in fluid communication with the path, the chamber, and a surrounding environment.

An integrated semiconductor heating assembly includes a semiconductor substrate, a chamber formed therein, and an exit port in fluid communication with the chamber, allowing fluid to exit the chamber in response to heating the chamber. The integrated heating assembly includes a first heating element adjacent the chamber, which can generate heat above a selected threshold and bias fluid in the chamber toward the exit port. A second heating element is positioned adjacent the exit port to generate heat above a selected threshold, facilitating movement of the fluid through the exit port away from the chamber. Addition of the second heating element reduces the amount of heat emitted per heating element and minimizes thickness of a heat absorption material toward an open end of the exit port. Since such material is expensive, this reduces the manufacturing cost and retail price of the assembly while improving efficiency and longevity thereof.
