Abstract:
A method of forming a dielectric layer suitable for use as the gate dielectric layer of a metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) includes oxidizing the surface of a silicon substrate, forming a metal layer over the oxidized surface, and reacting the metal with the oxidized surface to form a substantially intrinsic layer of silicon superjacent the substrate, wherein at least a portion of the silicon layer may be an epitaxial silicon layer, and a metal oxide layer superjacent the silicon layer. In a further aspect of the present invention, an integrated circuit includes a plurality of MOSFETs, wherein various ones of the plurality of transistors have metal oxide gate dielectric layers and substantially intrinsic silicon layers subjacent the metal oxide dielectric layers.

Abstract:
Methods and systems to read a logic value stored in a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ)-based memory cell based on a pulsed read current, with time between pulses to permit the MTJ to relax towards the magnetization orientation between the pulses, which may reduce build-up of momentum within the MTJ, and which may reduce and/or eliminate inadvertent re-alignment of a magnetization orientation. A sequence of symmetric and/or non-symmetric pulses may be applied to a wordline (WL) to cause a pre-charged bit line (BL) capacitance to discharge a pulsed read current through the MTJ, resulting in a corresponding sequence of voltage changes on the BL. The BL voltage changes may be integrated over the sequence of read current pulses, and a stored logic value may be determined based on the integrated voltage changes. The pre-charged BL capacitance may also serve as the voltage integrator.
Abstract:
Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJ) suitable for spin transfer torque memory (STTM) devices, include perpendicular magnetic layers and one or more anisotropy enhancing layer(s) separated from a free magnetic layer by a crystallization barrier layer. In embodiments, an anisotropy enhancing layer improves perpendicular orientation of the free magnetic layer while the crystallization barrier improves tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) ratio with better alignment of crystalline texture of the free magnetic layer with that of a tunneling layer.

Abstract:
A method for evaluating an online entity presence includes receiving a set of social media information for at least one entity and calculating a social media measurement where the social media measurement is associated with the set of social media information. The method further includes receiving a set of online profile information for the at least one entity, the set of online profile information being associated with one or more non-social media online profiles, and calculating an online profile measurement wherein the online profile measurement is associated with the set of online profile information. The method further includes calculating a reach value, the reach value being associated with the social media measurement and the online profile measurement and providing a reach score to a user where the reach score associated with the reach value.
