$ATOM New white paper
New Whitepaper “MST® Benefits for DRAM Sense Amplifiers”
Below is a prelude from Atomera's site and NOT the paper itself. Follow the link above to read the actual paper:
White Paper: “MST® Benefits for DRAM Sense Amplifiers”
By Jeff Lewis, SVP Business Devt. and Marketing
Atomera’s previous white papers have focused on advanced logic, especially gate-all-around (GAA) and nanosheets, and on BCD power devices. Today’s white paper, “MST Benefits for DRAM Sense Amplifiers” is our first paper to describe how MST can also improve memory devices. As many people consider the sense amplifier the “heart” of a DRAM chip, any improvement here can reap significant benefits.
The white paper describes recent learnings about Atomera’s MST® technology and how it can improve the mismatch inherent in DRAM sense amplifiers. This is becoming a critical issue for the latest DRAMs because bitcell capacitors are hitting their scaling limits and the total stored charge is now declining. Reducing mismatch enables numerous cost- and power-reduction benefits that are becoming critical with the huge use of DRAM in AI-focused datacenters.
The paper first describes how DRAM sense amplifiers work; goes into detail on what causes sense amp mismatch, especially random dopant fluctuation (RDF); how MST enables device designers to create the near-ideal dopant profile to minimize RDF; and concludes with a description of the DRAM product benefits of reduced mismatch.
{$ATOM} ST site going nuts over yesterday's move- lot's of interesting news tidbits from our friend Joe among others. Volume was decent for a change as well. Conviction or FOMO?

Atomera to Present at SISPAD 2023
September 20, 2023--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Atomera Incorporated (Nasdaq: ATOM):
WHO:
Professor Hiu Yung Wong of San Jose University, Robert J. Mears, CTO, and Hideki Takeuchi, Vice President of Engineering of Atomera Incorporated (Nasdaq: ATOM), a semiconductor materials and technology licensing company
WHAT:
In-person presentation of San Jose State’s and Atomera’s joint poster, entitled
"Cryogenic Electron Mobility and Subthreshold Slope of Oxygen-Inserted (OI) Si Channel nMOSFETs"
WHEN:
Wednesday, September 27 from 11 p.m. – Thursday, September 28 12:30 a.m. PDT
Thursday, September 28 from 3 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. JST
WHERE:
Kobe Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI), Meeting Room 1
6-1 Minatojimanakamachi, Chuo-ku,
Kobe-shi, Hyogo 650-8543, Japan
This poster presentation will discuss the new findings of the physical mechanism of why MST® (also referred to as "Oxygen-inserted", or "OI Si", in nMOSFETs channel) provides higher inversion-layer carrier mobility than a regular silicon channel, thus enabling higher ON-state current of CMOS devices compared to the baseline devices. Cryogenic-temperature electron-mobility measurement at San Jose State University revealed that Atomera’s MST film improves surface-roughness scattering by 53% compared to a regular Si channel – a significant result because surface-roughness scattering is typically the dominant mobility barrier in high vertical effective field. In addition, MST improves Coulomb scattering, which is significant at low vertical effective field, by reducing ionized dopant impurities near the gate dielectric. A simple analytical formula to describe the observed mobility behaviors of the MST film has been established for compact modeling.
Maybe for those margined, but for me? It'll be a second chance opportunity ...😏
I was late to the first round.
Remains to be seen but she did buy another 250K shares yesterday... she's obviously not shorting it at the moment.
$ACHR Bought again today- (Cathie Wood & Ark Invest's)
Wish they'd buy some $ATOM as long as they're at it...😏
Just saw a blurb on CNBC here in Germany about $ACHR (and ARK investment involvement).
Just saw a CNBC blurb about Archer Aviation here in Germany.
"Not Detroit! Anything but that... no...no..."
Lol. Tx!
Thanks. I'm counting on it 🙂
Lol, I just landed in Amsterdam and my phone pulled up my post I had posted right where I left off, while in Detroit boarding this flight. I assumed it never went through so I just hit "Submit".
Going on 24 hours no sleep now, and the sun is just rising 😴 Still have one more flight to go yet this morning ....😔

Good!
Well, I wondered when you mentioned the price- I thought he's gotta know I'm not talking about that one!
Dude, dude, dude, my bad! It's not $ARCH It's $ACHR
I'm really sorry- The name of the company is Archer Aviation, and I'm always catching myself typing
the ticker based on the name of the company... This time I let it slip by me.
$ARCH was bought again today by Cathie Wood & Ark Invest's #msg-172706729
Throw a dart at a WSJ page. Chances are that whatever company is hit, will have buried somewhere in their news brief time-line, some blurb about some shyster law firm looking to score some shake-down $$. This line: "Levi & Korsinsky, LLP has commenced an investigation into potential breaches of fiduciary duty..."
"Commenced an investigation"??
That means- We're starting to look and are going to rattle a few cages- make some noise- make a demand for $$ so we go away-- but we need you, the investor to glom on and make it look legit for the PR. Is there anything there? No clue. But this looks every bit like a typical shake down... Threaten, settle, rinse and repeat.
This says it all:
Levi & Korsinsky is a nationally recognized firm with offices in New York, Connecticut, California, and Washington, D.C. The firm's attorneys have extensive expertise in prosecuting securities litigation involving financial fraud, representing investors throughout the nation in securities lawsuits and have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for aggrieved shareholders.
Some chase ambulances... others...
Added $ACHR at the close @ $5.75
I don't have a large position- strictly a trading position of a few hundred shares.
$ACHR upgrade:
" 08:34 AM EDT, 08/22/2023 (MT Newswires) Raymond James Adjusts Price Target on Archer Aviation to $9 From $8, Maintains Outperform Rating -- Archer Aviation (ACHR) has an average rating of outperform and price targets ranging from $4.50 to $12, according to analysts polled by Capital IQ."
$ATOM New Blog post from the site regarding their patents- Good read. #msg-172652520
New Blog post from the Atomera website:
Published: August 21, 2023
Atomera Patent Portfolio
By Frank Laurencio, CFO
Atomera has built an extensive patent portfolio since its founding in 2001, with our first US patents filed in 2003, and counterparts filed outside the US shortly thereafter. As a technology licensing company, our IP is a critical asset, so in this post I offer some insight into how we built our patent portfolio and how we are leveraging our intellectual property to enhance shareholder value.
Early Patent Activity
When Robert Mears founded Atomera in 2001, he had already invented materials technology that revolutionized long-haul fiber optics, most notably with his invention of the erbium-doped fiber amplifier, or EDFA (you can read the IEEE Spectrum magazine’s write-up on it here). Atomera was based on the idea that similar approaches to doping crystalline substrates could benefit semiconductors. Accordingly, our early patents centered around altering the crystal lattice structure of semiconductor materials. Today we are engaged with semiconductor industry participants to understand how MST might be used in the devices they manufacture. So, while our early Atomera patents addressed concepts such as electron mobility in a MOSFET, our more recent patents cover a wide variety of device architectures that we believe will benefit most from MST.
Lean Years
To understand the timing of patent issuances and expirations, it is useful to look back at how our patent filing activity developed over the years. As the bar chart below shows, Atomera was very active in filing patents in the period from 2003-2007 when we filed 88 patents worldwide. Some of those early patents have started to expire. In the seven years after that (2008-2014), we filed only 14 patents. This was not due to a lack of innovation but was a response to the challenging funding environment faced by semiconductor startups, coupled with the global financial crisis. When the company recapitalized in preparation for our IPO in 2016, patenting activity started to pick up again. Between January 1, 2016 and now and we have filed 237 patents worldwide as compared to 107 patents in the 13 years from 2003-2015 – more than doubling our patent filings in about half as much time.
The number of patents we hold at any point in time can ebb and flow based on when we submit filings, patent office application processing timeframes, and expirations after the 20-year term. The elevated level of patent activity since our IPO provides patent protection into the 2040’s and we intend to continue this strong trajectory.
Our Strategy for Commercializing MST
As a technology licensing company, our business model relies on both our patent portfolio and our proprietary trade secrets. Patents are public documents that anyone can study, but they protect inventions by granting exclusive rights for a limited time period. Trade secrets, on the other hand, safeguard confidential and valuable information that provides a competitive edge. So while our patents protect the devices made using MST and the methods for doing so, the recipes for depositing MST film on wafers are not patented but are protected as trade secrets which we only divulge to customers under strict contractual protections. Unlike patents, which by law are limited to 20 years, trade secrets have no expiration. When we enter into a license agreement with a customer, we license both our patents and trade secrets to them – both types of IP are necessary for a customer to capitalize on the benefits of MST.
As Atomera has evolved from our roots in basic materials science to a value-add partner for semiconductor makers, our patents and know-how have also broadened to protect our innovations in the many areas that benefit from MST Technology.
Our engineers continue to innovate and protect their inventions with our powerful combination of patents and trade secrets, both in the areas we currently focus on and in new, related fields. Atomera is a very different company today than when we started out focused on basic materials science. We are engaged with companies across the full range of semiconductor process technologies and we have the patents and know-how covering our innovations in those areas, providing a much stronger and more valuable set of IP assets on which to build our licensing business.

HA! 😁
Yes- still in ATOM. However, just to prove I'm not a one-trick-pony, I'm laying another one down- $ACHR (Archer Aviation Inc.)/ Been watching this one since it was in the $3s. Full disclosure, the ONLY reason I'm in is because of Cathie Wood and Ark Investments, and she/they have been buyers for months including the past week at this level. I missed the original double from the upper $2s lower$3s from April and noticed that after the earlier runnup, she/they are still buying at this level and more so on the pullback from the recent highs- so, I'm in. Just sayin...
Not ignoring you- just don't know...
YW 🙃
