摘要:
Methods and systems for extending keyword searching techniques to syntactically and semantically annotated data are provided. Example embodiments provide a Syntactic Query Engine (“SQE”) that parses, indexes, and stores a data set as an enhanced document index with document terms as well as information pertaining to the grammatical roles of the terms and ontological and other semantic information. In one embodiment, the enhanced document index is a form of term-clause index, that indexes terms and syntactic and semantic annotations at the clause level. The enhanced document index permits the use of a traditional keyword search engine to process relationship queries as well as to process standard document level keyword searches. This abstract is provided to comply with rules requiring an abstract, and it is submitted with the intention that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
摘要:
A semiconductor device has trenches for defining active regions. After a thin diffusion barrier is deposited in the trenches, some of the trenches are selectively etched to leave different areas in the trench. One of the areas has the diffusion barrier completely removed so that the underlying layer is exposed. Another area has the diffusion barrier remaining. An oxidation step follows so that oxidation occurs at a corner where the diffusion barrier was removed whereas the oxidation is blocked by the diffusion barrier, which functions as a barrier to oxygen. The corners for oxidation are those in which compressive stress is desirable, such as along a portion of the border of a P channel transistor. The corners where the diffusion barrier is left are those in which a compressive stress is undesirable such as the border of an N channel transistor.
