摘要:
A semiconductor package has a substrate made of WCu, WAg, MoCu or MoAg. A plurality of leads are fixed to the substrate by hermetic sealing without an intervening nickel plating layer. A cover is bonded to the substrate with a seal ring which is directly bonded to the substrate by brazing without an intervening nickel plating layer. The leads are nickel plated and gold plated after hermetic sealing, and the seal ring is nickel plated and gold plated after brazing. Even though the substrate is made of a metal alloy, this arrangement provides the package with a high degree of airtightness.

Plasma processing apparatus and plasma processing methods capable of maintaining acceptable etching characteristics and to prevent degradation of a lower electrode even when the focus ring is severely eroded by the plasma, while leaving the plasma discharge conditions used in the conventional apparatus and methods substantially unchanged, are disclosed. According to an exemplary embodiment, a side-surface protecting ring formed of a ceramic material is provided to cover the side surface of the lower electrode such that an outer perimeter of the side-surface protecting ring is approximately aligned with, or inside, an outer perimeter of the substrate to be processed. As a result, the side-surface protecting ring does not influence the plasma characteristic.

A heat radiator for dissipating heat from an electronic device, which is mounted on a board or which is installed in a casing, to the outside thereof is basically composed of a substrate having plenty of through holes, which are produced by press molding and sintering. The substrate having a low thermal expansion coefficient is made of a copper-tungsten alloy or a copper-molybdenum alloy in which the copper content is smaller than the tungsten content or molybdenum content. The through holes each having a circular shape or a rectangular shape are infiltrated with the compound having a high thermal conductivity and composed of a copper-tungsten alloy or a copper-molybdenum alloy in which the copper content is greater than the tungsten content or molybdenum content. Thus, the heat radiator allows thermal conduction along axial directions of the through holes while substantially avoiding unwanted thermal expansion thereof.

An optical component comprises an optical transmission element (e.g., an optical lens) whose circumferential wall partially joins a metal holder via a joining material (e.g., a low melting point glass), wherein stress is normally applied to the optical transmission element in a compression direction when joining the metal holder. The optical transmission element is inserted into a through hole of the metal holder, and the joining material is kept in a bank actualized by a tapered portion formed in proximity to one end of the through hole of the metal holder. This prevents tensile stress from being applied to the optical transmission element; thus, it is possible to avoid the occurrence of cracks and separations in the optical transmission element; and it is possible to avoid the occurrence of errors in optical characteristics, regardless of variations of the environmental temperature, so that, the optical component is improved in reliability.

A thermoplastic norbornene resin is purified by using a cleaning liquid to eliminate organic impurities, ionic impurities, metallic impurities, and particles of the resin. The cleaning liquid is selected from 2-propanol and a mixed solvent of 2-propanol and water. A substrate for a magnetic recording medium of the invention is fabricated by injection-molding the thermoplastic norbornene resin purified by this method. A magnetic recording medium of the invention includes such a substrate, and a magnetic layer, a protective layer, and a liquid lubricant layer sequentially formed on the substrate. A method for manufacturing such a magnetic recording medium is also provided.

A non-aqueous electrolytic secondary battery that can prevent a drop in the power even in a large current discharge is provided. Porosity of a separator is larger than or the same as porosity of a positive electrode mixture and a porosity of a negative electrode mixture. Particularly, the porosity of the positive electrode mixture is 20% to 50%, the porosity of the negative electrode mixture is 20% to 50%, and the porosity of the separator is 20% to 60%. The separator becomes rich in the volume of the electrolytic solution that infiltrates into interfacial aperture between the separator and the negative electrode. When the large current discharge is carried out in a short time, lithium-ions are released/occluded from the electrodes and the electrolytic solution can gain the released/occluded lithium-ions with a small interfacial resistance.

The gas components in thermoplastic norbornene resin pellets are suppressed below certain levels by drying the resin under vacuum or under the ordinary pressure and under vacuum. A substrate for magnetic recording media is manufactured by injection-molding the resin dried by the method according to the invention. The magnetic recording medium, employing the substrate manufactured according to the invention, includes at least a magnetic layer, a protection layer on the magnetic layer and a liquid lubricant layer on the protection layer. The magnetic recording medium is manufactured by forming these layers, one after another, on the substrate according to the invention.
