    摘要: A surface acoustic wave element includes a piezoelectric member, a comb-teeth electrode, and a reflector. The comb-teeth electrode is arranged on the piezoelectric member. The reflector is arranged on the piezoelectric member. The reflector reflects a surface acoustic wave transmitted from the comb-teeth electrode. The reflector has a plurality of areas, and each of the areas has a frequency to make a reflection efficiency the largest. At least two of the frequencies of the areas are made different from each other.

    摘要: A yaw rate sensor has two sets of exciting electrodes, perturbative weights and two sets of detecting electrodes on a surface of a piezoelectric substrate. The exciting electrodes excite first surface acoustic waves transmitted through the surface of the substrate in a propagation direction. The weights are oscillated by the waves and excite a second surface acoustic wave, transmitted through the surface of the substrate in a detection direction orthogonal to the propagation direction, in response to a yaw applied to the weights. The detecting electrodes measure an intensity of the second surface acoustic wave to detect the yaw rate. The sets of exciting electrodes are symmetrically placed with respect to a driving axis extending straight along the propagation direction. The group of weights is symmetric with respect to the driving axis.

    摘要: An angular rate sensor comprises a piezoelectric film having a first and a second surfaces forming an x-y plane and utilizes a perturbation mass coherently vibrating elastic acoustic waves on which a Coriolis force acts when the angular rate sensor undergoes a rotary motion about an x-direction. A first elastic acoustic wave is excited in the piezoelectric film by a driving transducer and a second elastic acoustic wave generated by the Coriolis force proportional to an angular rate of the rotary motion of the angular rate sensor itself is detected by the detecting transducer. The angular rate sensor further comprises at least a first electrode disposed on the first surface of the piezoelectric film for discharging a surface charge caused due to piezoelectric effect at the lower surface of the film in which the first elastic acoustic wave is excited.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided. The device is manufactured with use of an SOI (Silicon On Insulator) substrate having a first silicon layer, an oxide layer, and a second silicon layer laminated in this order. After forming a trench reaching the oxide layer from the second silicon layer, dry etching is performed, thus allowing the oxide layer located at the trench bottom to be charged at first. This charging forces etching ions to impinge upon part of the second silicon layer located laterally to the trench bottom. Such part is removed, forming a movable section. For example, ions to neutralize the electric charges are administered into the trench, so that the electric charges are removed from charged movable electrodes and their charged surrounding regions. Removing the electric charges prevents the movable section to stick to its surrounding portions.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device having a movable unit includes a step of forming an SOI substrate that includes a semiconductor substrate, an insulating layer, and a semiconductor layer. The method further includes a step of dry etching the semiconductor layer to form a trench and a step of dry etching a sidewall defining the trench at a portion adjacent to a bottom of the trench to form the movable unit. The later dry etching is implemented with a charge building up on a surface of the insulating layer that is exposed during the former dry etching to etch the portion. In addition, the later dry etching is implemented at an etching rate higher than that at which the former dry etching is implemented to reduce the deposition amount of a protection film deposited on a reverse side of the movable unit during the later dry etching.
