Abstract:
A device includes a substrate with a device region surrounded by an isolation region, in which the device region includes edge portions along a width of the device region and a central portion. The device further includes a gate layer disposed on the substrate over the device region, in which the gate layer includes a graded thickness in which the gate layer at edge portions of the device region has a thickness TE that is different from a thickness TC at the central portion of the device region.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device provides a substrate having a first region and a second region. A sacrificial first gate is formed in the first region. Source/drain are formed in the first region. A second region gate dielectric is formed in the second region. A second region gate is formed on the second region gate dielectric. A second region source/drain is formed in the second region. A sacrificial layer is formed over the sacrificial first gate, the source/drain, the first region, and the second region. The sacrificial first gate is exposed. A gate space is formed by removing the sacrificial first gate. A first region gate dielectric is formed in the gate space. A first region gate is formed on the first region gate dielectric. The sacrificial layer is removed.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus to couple one unified display interface (UDI) connector with another connector, such that the UDI connector is coupled between the other connector and a circuit board, such as a motherboard or add-in card. The UDI connector may be coupled to other I/O connectors, for example a VGA connector. The UDI connector may be coupled to one or more UDI connectors. The coupled connectors may have the same molded connector assembly and may have an integrated metal shell. On the source or host-end, two or more UDI plug connectors are made on the same cable over-mold to place the plug connectors closely to each other, minimizing the height of the coupled connectors. The cable exiting the multi-plug over-mold may be separated and attached to individual UDI plug connectors, connecting multiple monitors. Both ends of the cable may have multi-plugs in the same over-mold at each end. Such a cable may be used to support additional UDI lanes for higher bandwidths.

Abstract:
Interlayer dielectric gap fill processes are enhanced by forming gate spacers with a tapered profile. Embodiments include forming a gate electrode on a substrate, depositing a spacer material over the gate electrode and substrate, the spacer layer having a first surface nearest the gate electrode and substrate, a second surface furthest from the gate electrode and substrate, and a continuously increasing etch rate from the first surface to the second surface, and etching the spacer layer to form a spacer on each side of the gate electrode. Embodiments further include forming the spacer layer by depositing a spacer material and continuously decreasing the density of the spacer material during deposition or depositing a carbon-containing spacer material and causing a gradient of carbon content in the spacer layer.
