20100058657GREEN ROOF EDGING AND RESTRAINT SYSTEM - An edging system for green roofing applications defines the margin between grow medium zones and vegetative free zones. An edge and restraint system comprises a edging structure having a substantially upright section having a height and a base section extending laterally from a the middle or lower end of the upright section on at least one lateral side thereof. The base section extends substantially perpendicularly from the upright section. The upright section and base sections may or may not include openings therethrough to allow drainage of water and the like. The upper end of the upright section is adapted to allow a restrainer piece to be releasably secured thereto in snap fit engagement. An edge of a water permeable fabric, which extends between a grow medium and drainage board upon which the grow medium is contained, is essentially secured in place at one end thereof by positioning an end portion thereof which extends from under the grow medium under the restrainer piece as it is snapped in place upon the upright section.03-11-2010

20100009512METHODS OF FORMING A PLURALITY OF CAPACITORS - A method of forming a plurality of capacitors includes forming a plurality of individual capacitor electrodes using two masking steps. An earlier of the two masking steps is used to form an array of first openings over a plurality of storage node contacts. A later of the two masking steps is used to form an array of second openings received partially over and partially offset from the array of first openings. Overlapping portions of the first and second openings are received over the storage node contacts. After both of the two masking steps, conductive material of the individual capacitor electrodes is deposited into the overlapping portions of each of the first and second openings. The individual capacitor electrodes are incorporated into a plurality of capacitors. Other aspects and implementations are contemplated.01-14-2010

20100190314Methods Of Forming Semiconductor Structures - Electroless plating can be utilized to form electrical interconnects associated with semiconductor substrates. For instance, a semiconductor substrate can be formed to have a dummy structure thereover with a surface suitable for electroless plating, and to also have a digit line thereover having about the same height as the dummy structure. A layer can be formed over the dummy structure and digit line, and openings can be formed through the layer to the upper surfaces of the dummy structure and digit line. Subsequently, a conductive material can be electroless plated within the openings to form electrical contacts within the openings. The opening extending to the dummy structure can pass through a capacitor electrode, and accordingly the conductive material formed within such opening can be utilized to form electrical contact to the capacitor electrode.07-29-2010
20100297822Methods of forming capacitor structures, methods of forming threshold voltage implant regions, and methods of implanting dopant into channel regions - The invention includes methods of forming channel region implants for two transistor devices simultaneously, in which a mask is utilized to block a larger percentage of a channel region location of one of the devices relative to the other. The invention also pertains to methods of forming capacitor structures in which a first capacitor electrode is spaced from a semiconductor substrate by a dielectric material, a second capacitor electrode comprises a conductively-doped diffusion region within the semiconductor material, and a capacitor channel region location is beneath the dielectric material and adjacent the conductively-doped diffusion region. An implant mask is formed to cover only a first portion of the capacitor channel region location and to leave a second portion of the capacitor channel region location uncovered. While the implant mask is in place, dopant is implanted into the uncovered second portion of the capacitor channel region location.11-25-2010

20110289186SYSTEMS, METHODS AND ARTICLES FOR PROVIDING COMMUNICATIONS AND SERVICES VIA A PEER-TO-PEER NETWORK OVER A DATA TRANSPORT LINK - Network communications, Web-based services and customized services using the Web-based services may be provided over a peer-to-peer network from a first peer to a second peer (e.g., automobile head unit) wherein the first peer has a separate connection to a more general server-based network such as the Internet. A communications device application based on a peer communications framework component in communication with a peer network stack on the communications device may work as middleware, with a connection to both a more general server-based network such as the Internet and to an external device, such as a head unit of an automobile. Although the communications device has a separate connection out to the Internet via a general network stack co-existing on the same communications device, the peer network stack and the general network stack are not directly connected.11-24-2011
