Abstract: A CMOS device and method of fabrication are disclosed. The present invention utilizes Schottky barrier contacts for source and/or drain contact fabrication within the context of a CMOS device and CMOS integrated circuits, to eliminate the requirement for halo/pocket implants, shallow source/drain extensions to control short channel effects, well implant steps, and complex device isolation steps. Additionally, the present invention eliminates the parasitic bipolar gain associated with CMOS device operation, reduces manufacturing costs, tightens control of device performance parameters, and provides for superior device characteristics as compared to the prior art. The present invention, in one embodiment, uses a silicide exclusion mask process to form the dual silicide Schottky barrier source and/or drain contact for the complimentary PMOS and NMOS devices forming the CMOS device.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a transistor device for regulating the flow of electric current is provided wherein the device has Schottky-barrier metal source-drain contacts. The method, in one embodiment, utilizes an isotropic etch process prior to the formation of the metal source-drain contacts to provide better control of the Schottky-barrier junction location to a channel region. The improvements from the controllability of the placement of the Schottky-barrier junction enables additional drive current and optimizes device performance, thereby significantly improving manufacturability.

Abstract: An image generator takes graphical objects and an occlusion relationship for the objects and resolves non-binary occlusion cycles with image compositing operations to produce an output image of the objects. The image generator takes an occlusion relationship for objects in a scene and a set of antialiased image layers with transparency of the objects and produces an antialiased image of the objects with hidden surfaces eliminated. One implementation operates on subsets of the objects in a scene that form non-binary cycles. This implementation uses a chain of atop operators to combine occluding objects with a selected object from a subset, and then combines this result with other objects in the cycle using over image operations. Another implementation computes a chain of out image operations for each object to combine the image layers of the occluding objects with the image layer of the object. The results of each chain of out image operations are summed to produce an output image.

Abstract: A layered graphics rendering pipeline for real time 3D animation independently renders terms in a shading model to separate image layers. The layered pipeline factors the shading model into separate image layers and renders geometry to these layers independently. Each layer can have an independent update rate and a spatial resolution different than the resolution of the output images. A compositor that supports one or more image operators composites the factored layers into an output image to generate frames of animation. To reduce rendering overhead, factored terms can be rendered once and then re-used in later frames by warping the initial rendering.

Abstract: A dense guide image or signal is used to inform the reconstruction of a target image from a sparse set of target points. The guide image and the set of target points are assumed to be derived from a same real world subject or scene. Potential discontinuities (e.g., tears, edges, gaps, etc.) are first detected in the guide image. The potential discontinuities may be borders of Voronoi regions, perhaps computed using a distance in data space (e.g., color space). The discontinuities and sparse set of points are used to reconstruct the target image. Specifically, pixels of the target image may be interpolated smoothly between neighboring target points, but where neighboring target points are separated by a discontinuity, the interpolation may jump abruptly (e.g., by adjusting or influencing relaxation) at the discontinuity. The target points may be used to select only a subset of the discontinuities to be used during reconstruction.
