    摘要: A low vapor-pressure material feeding apparatus comprises a bubbler (4, 5), accommodating a low vapor-pressure material (6) therein, for bubbling the low vapor-pressure material (6) with an inert gas fed from an inert gas container (3). A bifurcated gas feeding passage (51, 8) is provided between the gas container (3) and a vacuum chamber (50). One branch passage directly introduces an inert gas into the vacuum chamber (50), and the other branch passage introduces an inert gas into the bubbler (4, 5). A gas mixture of a vaporized low vapor-pressure material (6) and the inert gas, is supplied from the bubbler (4, 5) to a vacuum chamber (50). A gas flow meter (7) detects a flow amount of the gas mixture. On a basis of a gas flow amount detected by the gas flow meter (7), an inert gas controller (10) adjusts a feeding amount of inert gas so that a total amount of an inert gas introduced directly into said vacuum chamber (50) and an inert gas introduced into the bubbler (4, 5) is kept at a constant value.

    摘要: An impurity doped SiC substrate 1 and SiC thin film 2 are irradiated with a laser light 5 having a wavelength longer than such a wavelength that a band edge absorption of a semiconductor is caused. The wavelength of the laser light 5 may be such a wavelength that an absorption is caused by a vibration by the bond of an impurity element and an element constituting the semiconductor, for example, a wavelength of 9 &mgr;m to 11 &mgr;m. Specifically, in the case where Al is doped in SiC, the wavelength of the laser light 5 may be within the range of 9.5 &mgr;m to 10 &mgr;m.

    摘要: A large area semiconductor element can be manufactured with high productivity, which has low electric resistance at the boundary face of a metal and a semiconductor and has excellent characteristics and reliability. A manufacturing apparatus comprises an ion irradiation means for simultaneously irradiating hydrogen ions and ions containing an element serving as a dopant of a semiconductor to a semiconductor film or a substrate in an atmosphere under reduced pressure, and a film forming means which forms a thin film or a heat treatment means which conducts a heat treatment without exposing a sample to an air. When a sample having an a-Si:H thin film is brought into a sample preparation chamber by opening a gate valve, the chamber is exhausted to have the inside pressure of 10.sup.2 to 10.sup.-3 Pa. Then, the sample is forwarded to an ion irradiation chamber from the sample preparation chamber via an intermediate chamber of which the pressure is maintained in the range of 10.sup.-3 to 10.sup.-7 Pa, and ions such as phosphous are irradiated. After the ion irradiation, a gate valve is opened to transfer the sample to the intermediate chamber, and then a gate valve is opened to forward the sample to a deposition chamber. Subsequently, Ar gas is let in to the deposition chamber and a metal film of Al/Ti is deposited by a sputtering method. After the deposition, the sample is forwarded to a sample carry-out chamber via the intermediate chamber.
