Strategies for selective deposition of metal oxides materials on patterned substrates

As the sizes of microelectronic devices continue downward scaling, novel processing methods are needed to meet the increasingly difficult materials challenges associated with the new devices. To achieve complex planar geometries and 3-D structures with nanometer-scale feature sizes, selective deposition processes can help facilitate the fabrication process. Selective deposition approaches in device fabrication require a technique that can provide the deposition of different materials with a variety of thicknesses, while maintaining the sele ...

Borel Kernels and their Approximation

School
MATHEMATICS

We introduce a framework to study the exact and approximate semantics of probabilistic programs. We construct a dagger symmetric monoidal category of Borel kernels where the dagger-structure is given by Bayesian inversion. We show functorial bridges between this category and categories of Banach lattices which formalize the move from kernel-based semantics to predicate transformer (backward) or state transformer (forward) semantics. These bridges are related by natural transformations, and we show in particular that the Radon-Nikodym and Riesz representation theorems - two pillars of probability theory - define natural transformations. ...
