摘要:
A gate electrode is made up of a lower electrode of polysilicon and an upper electrode including a low-resistance film. A nitride sidewall is formed to cover at least the side faces of an insulator cap and the upper electrode. A pad oxide film is formed to cover at least part of the side faces of the lower electrode and part of the upper surface of a semiconductor substrate. Since a second nitride sidewall is formed to cover the first nitride sidewall and the pad oxide film, a self-aligned contact hole can be formed by etching. As a result, a semiconductor device with a highly reliable self-aligned contact can be obtained.

A MOS transistor includes a gate oxide film, and a gate electrode which is formed by a lamination of first and second conductor films. A capacitive element includes a lower capacitive electrode formed of the first conductor film, a capacitive film made of an insulating film which is different from the gate oxide film, an upper capacitive electrode formed of the second conductor film on the capacitive film, and a leading electrode of the lower capacitive electrode formed of the second conductor film. At the same number of steps as in the case where the gate oxide film is used as the capacitive film, a semiconductor device can be manufactured with the capacitive film provided, the capacitive film being made of a nitride film or the like that is different from the gate oxide film. Consequently, a capacitive film having a great capacitance value per unit area is used so that the occupied area can be reduced and an increase in manufacturing cost can be controlled. In the semiconductor device in which a transistor, a capacitive element, a resistive film and the like are provided, the occupied area can be reduced and the manufacturing cost can be cut down.

The present invention provides a disk storage device capable of storing a plurality of types of disks, or a plurality of disks of the same type, and managing these disks easily to improve the operability of the apparatus. The invention reproduces the contents of the disks at high continuity even as disks of different types are exchanged. In order to manage disks stored in the disk storage device efficiently, there is provided the disk manager information memory device having the memory unit, in which the disk storage location data, disk type data and control data necessary for reproducing each disk are pre-stored together with additional data for managing each disk. When the additional data of a disk is input from an outside source, the management additional data which matches with the input additional data is searched, and the disk storage location data, data type data and control data, associated with the input additional data are read from the memory unit of the disk manager to be searched.

An input device including a display unit for displaying thereon characters entered from a keyboard or by a pen inputting operation, a character selector including a tablet for selecting any character from among the characters displayed on the display unit, and a CPU for receiving the characters selected by the character selector as a new input. When any character is selected from an already input character string displayed on the display unit, the selected character is added as a new character input to the already input characters, and displayed together on the display unit.

There are provided: an isolation protruding upward from a semiconductor substrate in an active region; a gate electrode formed in the active region; and a pair of dummy electrodes formed to extend over the active region and the isolation and substantially in parallel with the gate electrode. Each of the gate electrode and dummy electrodes is composed of a lower film and an upper film. The lower films of the dummy electrodes are formed flush with the isolation and in contact with the side edges of the isolation. With the dummy electrodes, any gate electrode can be formed in a line-and-space pattern, so that the finished sizes of the gate electrode become uniform. This enables a reduction in gate length and therefore provides a semiconductor device of higher integration which is operable at a higher speed and substantially free from variations in finished size resulting from the use of different gate patterns.

Gate electrodes of an N-channel transistor and a P-channel transistor are formed on a semiconductor substrate with a gate insulator therebetween. After conducting a first thermal treatment to the gate electrodes, N-type heavily doped diffusion layers to be a source or a drain of the N-channel transistor are formed using the gate electrode of the N-channel transistor as a mask. After conducting a second thermal treatment to the N-type heavily doped diffusion layers at a lower temperature than that of the first thermal treatment, P-type heavily doped diffusion layers to be a source or a drain of the P-channel transistor are formed using the gate electrode of the P-channel transistor as a mask. Then, a third thermal treatment is conducted to the P-type heavily doped diffusion layers at a lower temperature than that of the second thermal treatment.

An ion implantation stopper is formed on a gate electrode extending on a substrate. When ions are implanted into the substrate to form an LDD layer or source and drain regions in the substrate, the stopper functions to prevent the gate electrode from being exposed to ion implantation. The prevention of the exposure of the gate electrode to the ion implantation ensures the prevention of channeling in the gate electrode.

A robot having a robot arm swingable from a position outside a car body conveying line to the line and movable in the directions of length, width and height of the car body is provided with a support frame carrying a jig for holding the window glass. The frame is tiltably mounting on the arm via a tilting shaft. A first detector is mounted on the frame for detecting a deviation the car-width direction of the jig with respect to the window portion. A pair of second detectors are provided on the frame at positions which are symmetrical with respect to the car width direction center line of the jig for detecting deviations in the plane of the window opening. First, deviation detected by the first detector is corrected by moving the jig in the car width direction. Then, deviation in tilt detected by the second detectors is corrected by tilting the jig. Finally, deviation in height detected jointly by the second detectors is corrected by raising or lowering the jig. Thereafter, the window glass is mounted in the window portion.
