A manufacturing method for a semiconductor device, which can attain a low ion voltage in a manufacturing method for a semiconductor device involving a process for forming a groove by etching prior to selective oxidation, selectively oxidizing a region including the groove and thereby making a channel part of the groove, is disclosed. A groove part is thermally oxidized by using a silicon nitride film as a mask. A LOCOS oxide film is formed by this thermal oxidation, and concurrently a U-groove is formed on the surface of an n.sup.- -type epitaxial layer eroded by the LOCOS oxide film, and the shape of the U-groove is fixed. A curve part formed during a chemical dry etching process remains as a curve part on the side surface of the U-groove. Then, an n.sup.+ -type source layer is formed by means of thermal diffusion to a junction thickness of 0.5 to 1 .mu.m, and a channel is set up as well. The junction depth obtained by this thermal diffusion is set up more deeply than the curve part which is formed during the above etching and remains on the side surface of the U-groove after the above selective thermal oxidation.

The present invention discloses an emergency escape unit to be used in case of an emergency such as a fire, an earthquake or the like, such that the user safely escapes from a high building with the use of this escape unit. In the emergency escape unit of the present invention, a light-weight gas such as helium, air or the like, filled in a bomb may be quickly released into a sack-like canopy, causing the canopy to be expanded in the form of an umbrella, so that the air resistance during descent is quickly increased, enabling the user to fall slowly. When helium is used as the light-weight gas to be released into the sack-like canopy, provision is made such that buoyancy is generated.

A plasma etching method capable of oblique etching with a high aspect ratio and high uniformity is provided. In the plasma etching method, a base body is etched with a high aspect ratio by the following process: An electric-field control device having an ion-introducing orifice penetrating therethrough in a direction inclined from the normal to the surface of a base body is placed on or above the surface of this base body. Plasma is generated on the surface of the base body on or above which the electric-field control is placed. A potential difference is formed between the plasma and the base body so as to attract ions in the plasma toward the base body.

A semiconductor device having a lateral semiconductor element includes a semiconductor substrate, a first electrode on the substrate, a second electrode on the substrate, and an isolation structure located in the substrate to divide the substrate into a first island and a second island electrically insulated from the first island. The lateral semiconductor element includes a main cell located in the first island and a sense cell located in the second island. The main cell causes a first current to flow between the first electrode and the second electrode so that the first current flows in a lateral direction along the surface of the substrate. The first current is detected by detecting a second current flowing though the sense cell.
