| 20100006961 | Recessed Germanium (Ge) Diode - A photodiode is formed in a recessed germanium (Ge) region in a silicon (Si) substrate. The Ge region may be fabricated by etching a hole through a passivation layer on the Si substrate and into the Si substrate and then growing Ge in the hole by a selective epitaxial process. The Ge appears to grow better selectively in the hole than on a Si or oxide surface. The Ge may grow up some or all of the passivation sidewall of the hole to conformally fill the hole and produce a recessed Ge region that is approximately flush with the surface of the substrate, without characteristic slanted sides of a mesa. The hole may be etched deep enough so the photodiode is thick enough to obtain good coupling efficiencies to vertical, free-space light entering the photodiode. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20090083245 | Using user context information to select media files for a user in a distributed multi-user digital media system - In a distributed or multi-user system, it is possible for a user to try to access a media file that is not optimal for the user's purposes. In other words, the best quality version of some source material might not be the most optimal version for all users. For example, some users might use less network bandwidth if they used lower resolution video data. User context information is used to limit which versions of a source may be provided to a user that requests the source. The system interprets the user context information to provide the best quality version of the source for the user's purposes. Example user context information may include a specified working resolution and/or a specified target resolution for the user. The context information may be specified for the user or may be specified for a group of users, location of the user or other characteristic related to the user, from which the user in turn inherits the context information. User context information may include an identifier of an application being used by an individual. The user context information also may indicate whether the user may receive media files with data at resolutions higher than or lower than the specified resolutions. | 03-26-2009 |
