摘要:
Conductive paths in an integrated circuit are formed using multiple undifferentiated carbon nanotubes embedded in a conductive metal, which is preferably copper. Preferably, conductive paths include vias running between conductive layers. Preferably, composite vias are formed by forming a metal catalyst pad on a conductor at the via site, depositing and etching a dielectric layer to form a cavity, growing substantially parallel carbon nanotubes on the catalyst in the cavity, and filling the remaining voids in the cavity with copper. The next conductive layer is then formed over the via hole.

摘要:
A nanopore capture system may include a material configured to pass through a nanopore device in a controlled manner based upon its interaction with the nanopore device. The system may also include a capture mechanism connected to one end of the material. The capture mechanism may be configured to catch a particular type of molecule while ignoring other types of molecules. The system may also include a controller to manipulate and/or detect the particular type of molecule.

A technique for controlling the motion of one or more charged entities linked to a polymer through a nanochannel is provided. A first reservoir and a second reservoir are connected by the nanochannel. An array of electrodes is positioned along the nanochannel, where fluid fills the first reservoir, the second reservoir, and the nanochannel. A first electrode is in the first reservoir and a second electrode is in the second reservoir. The first and second electrodes are configured to direct the one or more charged entities linked to the polymer into the nanochannel. An array of electrodes is configured to trap the one or more charged entities in the nanochannel responsive to being controlled for trapping. The array of electrodes is configured to move the one or more charged entities along the nanochannel responsive to being controlled for moving.

The present invention provides a method of forming an electrode having reduced corrosion and water decomposition on a surface thereof. A conductive layer is deposited on a substrate. The conductive layer is partially oxidized by an oxygen plasma process to convert a portion thereof to an oxide layer thereby forming the electrode. The oxide layer is free of surface defects and the thickness of the oxide layer is from about 0.09 nm to about 10 nm and ranges therebetween, controllable with 0.2 nm precision.

A method and system are disclosed for matching input character sequences in a set of input patterns. The method comprises the steps of analyzing the set of input patterns, creating a pattern cluster look-up table (PCLT) based on said input patterns, and defining an offset value k. The PCLT is used to find, for each sequence s and offset k, a set of candidate patterns that can possibly match s, the set of candidate patterns is searched for patterns that match s, and all found matching patterns and sequences are reported.

A method, system, and computer usable program product for detecting dose and focus variations during photolithography are provided in the illustrative embodiments. A test shape is formed on a wafer, the wafer being used to manufacture integrated circuits, the test shape being formed using a dose value and a focus value that are predetermined for the manufacturing. A capacitance of the test shape is measured. The capacitance is resolved to a second dosing value and a second focus value using an extraction model. A difference between the dosing value and the second dosing value is computed. A recommendation is made for dosing adjustment in the manufacturing based on the difference.
