A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device with a silicide electrode is provided which can form a good contact even at a scaled-down pattern. The method includes the steps of: forming an insulated gate structure with side wall spacer on a p-type region of a silicon (Si) substrate; implanting arsenic ions in source/drain regions at a dose less than 5×1015 cm−2; forming a laminated layer of a Co film and a TiN film on the surface of the substrate; heating the substrate to let the Co film react with an underlying Si region for silicidation; and removing the TiN film. Another method includes the steps of: forming a field oxide film on the surface of a silicon (Si) substrate for element isolation; implanting ions in the surface region of the Si substrate defined by the field oxide film to form a conductive silicon region; depositing a Co film on the Si surface extending to the field oxide film; heating the Si substrate under such conditions of a time and a temperature that does not allow CoSi2 to be formed, and lets the Co film react with the conductive silicon region for silicidation, thereby forming Co silicide; removing an unreacted Co film; and subjecting the Si substrate to another heat treatment to convert the Co silicide to CoSi2.

A passenger's weight measurement device for a vehicle seat, capable of suppressing generation of an initial load, has a pair of slide rails extending in parallel and fixed to the vehicle floor, and a pair of side frames that support the seat and are disposed above the pair of slide rails. Load cells are disposed between the pair of the slide rails and the pair of the side frames. A set of first connection frames for connecting both ends of the pair of side frames extend in parallel to be perpendicular to the pair of side frames. Second and third connecting frames connect middle parts of the pair of slide rails so as to be perpendicular to the slide rails. The pair of the slide rails and the second and a third connecting frames constitute an H-shaped frame. The load cells include an elastic member having a varied-diameter portion.

The object of this invention is to provide an imaging apparatus capable of providing a high-quality image optimum for medical diagnosis or the like by an arrangement for preventing any degradation in image quality due to the influence of electromagnetic noise and vibration caused by grid movement. In order to achieve this object, as operation control in receiving radiation transmitted through an object by an image sensing element through a movable grid and reading the accumulated signal from the image sensing element, a control device stops moving drive movement of the grid after the end of radiation irradiation for the object, and after the stop of moving drive stopping the movement, starts reading the accumulated signal from the image sensing element.
