Appl. No.:

10/680820

Inventors:

Kevin K. Chan - Staten Island NY, US
Jia Chen - Ossining NY, US

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

H01L029/76

US Classification:

257336, 257 19, 257 20, 257 24, 257192, 257213, 257344, 257392

Abstract:

A multi-layered gate electrode stack structure of a field effect transistor device is formed on a silicon nano crystal seed layer on the gate dielectric. The small grain size of the silicon nano crystal layer allows for deposition of a uniform and continuous layer of poly-SiGe with a [Ge] of up to at least 70% using in situ rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition (RTCVD). An in-situ purge of the deposition chamber in a oxygen ambient at rapidly reduced temperatures results in a thin SiOor SiGeOinterfacial layer of 3 to 4A thick. The thin SiOor SiGeOinterfacial layer is sufficiently thin and discontinuous to offer little resistance to gate current flow yet has sufficient [O] to effectively block upward Ge diffusion during heat treatment to thereby allow silicidation of the subsequently deposited layer of cobalt. The gate electrode stack structure is used for both nFETs and pFETs.

Abstract:

Systems and methods for a cognitive display control are disclosed. A method includes: obtaining, by a computer device, context information of current content being displayed on a display; generating, by the computer device, a respective attention score for each one of plural users for the current content; receiving, by the computer device, input to change from the current content to new content; determining, by the computer device and based on the receiving, that the attention score of at least one of the plural users exceeds a threshold value; and controlling the display, by the computer device and based on the determining, to display an alert and a prompt to confirm or reject changing to the new content.

International Classification:

Abstract:

A method of establishing personalized limits on a search responsive to a key word query in an enterprise search system is described that includes receiving an object types access history for a particular user. Applying this method, the object types access history includes records of object types selected from search results returning multiple object types and records of object types selected via interfaces other than search results. The method continues with determining and storing in computer readable memory a personalized scope of object types. The personalized scope of object types sets a limit on object types initially returned by an enterprise search system for the particular user in response to key word queries by the particular user that do not specify object types to search.
