    Abstract: In a method of forming an insulating structure, an insulating interlayer is formed on a substrate using a silicon source gas and a reaction gas. A capping layer is formed in-situ on the insulating interlayer by increasing a flow rate of an oxidizing gas included in the reaction gas so that the capping layer has a second thickness when the insulating interlayer is formed on the substrate to have a first thickness. The insulating structure dose not have an interface between the insulating interlayer and the capping layer so that the insulating interlayer is not subject to damage by a cleaning solution during a subsequent cleaning process, since the cleaning solution maynot permeate into the insulating structure. Additionally, leakage current is mitigated or eliminated between the insulating interlayer and the capping layer, thereby improving the reliability of a semiconductor device including the insulating structure.

    Abstract: A centering arrangement for controlling relative movement between a series of mold support plates in a stack mold having three or more levels. The centering arrangement uses a plurality of centering devices which are substantially identical, each spanning two mold levels and being connected to three adjacent mold support plates. Each centering device has a shaft generally parallel to an axis of the mold and having an intermediate portion journalled in an intermediate connector to allow rotational movement about a shaft axis, but to restrain relative axial movement between the shaft and the intermediate connector. Helical splines extend from the intermediate portion toward opposite ends of the shaft in oppositely twisting helices. End connectors having cooperating splines engage the splined portions of the shaft and connect the centering device to the outermost of the mold plates to which it is connected. The intermediate connector secures the centering device to the intermediate of the three mold plates to which the centering device is connected. Relative axial movement between the end connectors and the adjacent intermediate connector requires simultaneous translation and rotation of the shaft in equal amounts in both end connectors, thereby maintaining the intermediate connector centered between the two adjacent end connectors.

    Abstract: Provided is a touch sensor type light-emission writing instrument such as a ball point pen or an automatic pencil, which includes an LED (Light-Emitting Diode) unit which is turned on or off by a touch sensor without special illumination at dark places or at night. The touch sensor type light-emission writing instrument includes an LED unit having two light-emission portions which are embedded in a leading-end opening portion of a body accommodating a pencil lead or a ball point internal chamber filled with viscous ink, and which emit light. The negative polarity of the LED unit is directly connected to a battery through a metal plate, a spring etc., in the writing instrument, and the positive polarity thereof is linked on an integrated-circuit (IC) board between the LED unit and the battery. The LED unit is turned on or off by detection of a touch sensor. Accordingly, in comparison with the conventional light-emission writing instrument employing the mechanical switching unit, the touch sensor type light-emission writing instrument employing the touch sensor type switching unit is simple in view of the structure, to thus decrease the number of trouble occurrence, and employs the LED unit having two light-emission portions, to thus provide good brightness so that shadow does not occur as well as to thus facilitate a switching operation of the LED unit, to offer a simply manipulative light-emission writing instrument.

    Abstract: Disclosed are methods for carrying out a damascene process in semiconductor fabrication including the steps of: forming an intermetal dielectric film on a semiconductor substrate; patterning the intermetal dielectric film and forming an intermetal dielectric pattern comprising at least two layers of different chemical compositions that includes at least an opening penetrating the intermetal dielectric film; forming a conductive film to fill the opening on the intermetal dielectric pattern; and etching the conductive film by means of a chemical/mechanical polishing operation until exposing an upper face of the intermetal dielectric pattern and the top of the filled opening so as to form a conductive pattern. An etching process is then performed to selectively remove an upper portion of the intermetal dielectric pattern. Because the intermetal dielectric film is variable in chemical composition according to different constituent layers, the upper portion of the intermetal dielectric pattern can be selectively removed by using a chemical etching composition that demonstrates etching selectivity relative to the different layers of the intermetal dielectric film.

    Abstract: A cooling arrangement is provided for a mold centering device for multi-level stack molds having a spline shaft with a central region journaled to an intermediate mold level with involute spline pathways extending in oppositely twisting helices from the central region toward opposite ends thereof and respective spline nuts secured to adjacent mold levels threadedly engaging the spline pathways to run therealong for converting linear motion into rotational motion and vice versa thereby controlling relative opening and closing rates of the adjacent mold levels relative to the intermediate mold levels therebetween. The cooling arrangement has an internal fluid passageway extending along the spline shaft into a region of the spline shaft received in the spline nuts. A fluid inlet communicates with and supplies fluid to the fluid passageway. A fluid outlet communicates with and discharges fluid from the fluid passageway. Fluid guide means are provided for causing a fluid to flow along the fluid passageway to cool the region received in the spline nuts as the fluid passes from the inlet through the outlet.
