A plating film is formed by the steps of applying a direct current between a cathode and an anode (S10); superimposing an alternating current component on the direct current between the cathode and the anode and detecting a displacement current flowing between the cathode and the anode (S12 to S16); calculating a variation of a surface area of the plating film based on the displacement current (S18 and S20); and controlling the value of the direct current based on the variation of the surface area of the plating film so that the local area current density for the surface area does not change (S22 and S24). Consequently favorable film properties are provided to the plating film.

A thin-film device incorporates a device main body and four terminal electrodes. The device main body has four side surfaces. The terminal electrodes are disposed to touch respective portions of the side surfaces. The device main body includes a lower conductor layer used to form a first passive element and an upper conductor layer used to form a second passive element. At each side surface of the device main body, an end face of the lower conductor layer and an end face of the upper conductor layer are electrically and physically connected to each other. The terminal electrodes touch the end faces of the lower and upper conductor layers, and are thereby connected to the lower and upper conductor layers.

In a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, insulation resistance of the porous film is stabilized, and leakage current between adjacent interconnects provides an improved reliability in signal propagation therethrough. The method includes: sequentially forming over a semiconductor substrate a porous film and a patterned resist film; forming a concave exposed surface of the substrate; forming a non-porous film covering the interior wall of the concave portion and the porous film; selectively removing the non-porous film from the bottom of the concave portion and the non-porous film by anisotropic etch; forming a barrier metal film covering the porous film and the interior wall; and forming a metallic film on the barrier metal film to fill the concave portion. The anisotropic etch process uses an etching gas with mixing ratio MR, 45≦MR≦100, where MR=((gaseous “nitrogen” containing compound)+(inert gas))/(gaseous “fluorine” containing compound).

A lubrication structure for splash lubrication in an engine includes an oil collector formed as a depression in the outer peripheral surface of the crank pin and an oil groove provided on the big-end of the connecting rod. The oil collector is formed approximately at the center, in an axial direction, of the crank pin. The position of the oil collector is chosen so as to be displaced from an explosive force in an expansion cycle of the engine. The oil groove is provided on the big-end of the connecting rod, and has a first end and a second end. The first end is open in the inner peripheral surface at the center thereof in an axial direction, and the second end is open into the crank case. The oil collector receives oil stored in the crank case and the oil is transferred to the oil groove.

摘要:
A terminal electrode body on a substrate is exposed relative to a resin layer, protruding out beyond the side of the resin layer. That is, the terminal electrode body is not covered by the resin layer. The electronic element is covered by an insulating layer and the terminal electrode body and the electronic element are electrically connected. Hence, an electric signal applied to the terminal electrode body can be transmitted to the electronic element. A cover layer covers the terminal electrode body and the boundary between the terminal electrode body and the resin layer.
