A backlight luminescence control device for use in a portable computer to control a backlight of a liquid crystal display. When an AC adaptor is not connected to the portable computer, the device senses the voltage level of a DC battery and generates an electrical signal that indicates the status of the battery. From the voltage level of the DC battery, the device ascertains the appropriate luminescence level of a cold-cathode fluorescent backlight lamp (CCFL), automatically controls the brightness of the CCFL through several levels of luminosity, and optimizes the luminescence of the CCFL according to the voltage level available in the DC battery.

In a method of forming a layer, a titanium layer and a titanium nitride layer may be successively formed on a first wafer. By-products adhered to the inside of a chamber during the formation of the titanium nitride layer may be removed from the chamber. Processes of forming the titanium layer, forming the titanium nitride layer, and removing the by-products may be repeated relative to a second wafer.

A method of forming plasma used in a process of manufacturing a semiconductor device and a method of forming a layer for a semiconductor device using the plasma are disclosed. The plasma forming method includes forming a plasma region in a sealed space by supplying a plasma source gas into the sealed space at a first flow rate and maintaining the plasma region by supplying a plasma maintenance gas into the sealed space at a second flow rate higher than the first flow rate. The plasma source gas includes a first gas having a first atomic weight, and the plasma maintenance gas includes a second gas having a second atomic weight lower than the first atomic weight. The plasma source gas includes argon and the plasma maintenance gas includes helium. The method may further include forming the layer on a wafer by supplying a source gas into the sealed space.

Provided are a lift pin capable of preventing aluminum from depositing on the lift pin when depositing a metallic layer on a wafer through chemical vapor deposition. a system using the lift pin, and a method of manufacturing the same. The lift pin is made of stainless steel and is oxidized at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time, such that the lift pin is not deposited with aluminum during a CVD process. Since the CVD vacuum processing chamber utilizes the heater and the lift pin which are made of oxidized SUS material, aluminum does not deposit on the heater and the lift. Therefore, when the lift pin is lowered, the lift pin is not lowered by its own weight, thereby preventing a wafer from being broken. Also, the lift pin is prevented from being ruptured by a robot moving in and out of an opening of the CVD vacuum processing chamber.
