摘要:
In a manufacturing process of a transistor including an oxide semiconductor film, oxygen doping treatment is performed on the oxide semiconductor film, and then heat treatment is performed on the oxide semiconductor film and an aluminum oxide film provided over the oxide semiconductor film. Consequently, an oxide semiconductor film which includes a region containing more oxygen than a stoichiometric composition is formed. The transistor formed using the oxide semiconductor film can have high reliability because the amount of change in the threshold voltage of the transistor by a bias-temperature stress test (BT test) is reduced.

In a manufacturing process of a transistor, an oxide semiconductor layer, a source electrode layer, a drain electrode layer, a gate insulating film, a gate electrode layer, and an aluminum oxide film are formed in this order, and then heat treatment is performed on the oxide semiconductor layer and the aluminum oxide film, whereby an oxide semiconductor layer from which an impurity containing a hydrogen atom is removed and which includes a region containing oxygen more than the stoichiometric proportion is formed. In addition, when the aluminum oxide film is formed, entry and diffusion of water or hydrogen into the oxide semiconductor layer from the air due to heat treatment in a manufacturing process of a semiconductor device or an electronic appliance including the transistor can be prevented.

摘要:
The amount of water and hydrogen contained in an oxide semiconductor film is reduced, and oxygen is supplied sufficiently from a base film to the oxide semiconductor film in order to reduce oxygen deficiencies. A stacked base film is formed, a first heat treatment is performed, an oxide semiconductor film is formed over and in contact with the stacked base film, and a second heat treatment is performed. In the stacked base film, a first base film and a second base film are stacked in this order. The first base film is an insulating oxide film from which oxygen is released by heating. The second base film is an insulating metal oxide film. An oxygen diffusion coefficient of the second base film is smaller than that of the first base film.

摘要:
In an industrial vehicle having at least first and second arms rotatably coupled to each other, a locus depicted by a tip of the second arm during rotation of the first and second arms is controlled. An amount of positional deviation of the tip of the second arm in the direction (compensating direction) perpendicular to the direction of the targeted locus (operating direction) is detected. A command value for the compensating velocity is determined from a command value for the operating velocity and the deviation. The driving of the first and second arms is controlled by the two velocity command values in the operating and compensating directions in such a manner that the tip of the second arm moves along the targeted locus. In short, positional feedback is provided by means of the positional deviation in the direction perpendicular to the targeted locus. In addition, the direction of the targeted locus is set as the direction of installation of an operating attachment mounted on the tip of the second arm. In an industrial vehicle further having a third arm, the second and third arms are driven in such a manner that the tip of the third arm will not deviate from the targeted locus as a result of the rotation of the first arm. At this juncture, the aforementioned feedback is also provided.
