摘要:
A light-emitting diode is built on a silicon substrate which has been doped with a p-type impurity to possess sufficient conductivity to provide part of the current path through the LED. The p-type silicon substrate has epitaxially grown thereon a buffer region of n-type AlInGaN. Further grown epitaxially on the buffer region is the main semiconductor region of the LED which comprises a lower confining layer of n-type GaN, an active layer for generating light, and an upper confining layer of p-type GaN. In the course of the growth of the buffer region and main semiconductor region there occurs a thermal diffusion of gallium and other Group III elements from the buffer region into the p-type silicon substrate, with the consequent creation of a p-type low-resistance region in the substrate. Interface levels are created across the heterojunction between p-type silicon substrate and n-type buffer region. The interface levels expedite carrier transport from substrate to buffer region, contributing to reduction of the drive voltage requirement of the LED.

A high electron mobility transistor is disclosed which has a double-layered main semiconductor region formed on a silicon substrate via a multilayered buffer region. The multilayered buffer region is in the form of alternations of an aluminum nitride layer and a gallium nitride layer. The main semiconductor region, buffer region, and part of the substrate taper as they extend away from the rest of the substrate, providing slanting side surfaces. An electroconductive antileakage overlay covers these side surfaces via an electrically insulating overlay. Electrically coupled to the silicon substrate via a contact electrode, the antileakage overlay serves for reduction of current leakage along the side surfaces.
摘要:
A substrate system of the kind having a buffer region interposed between a silicon substrate proper and a nitride semiconductor region in order to make up for a difference in linear expansion coefficient therebetween. Electrodes are formed on the nitride semiconductor layer or layers in order to provide HEMTs or MESFETs. The buffer region is a lamination of a multiplicity of buffer layers each comprising a first, a second, and a third buffer sublayer of nitride semiconductors, in that order from the silicon substrate proper toward the nitride semiconductor region. The three sublayers of each buffer layer contain aluminum in varying proportions including zero. The aluminum proportion of the third buffer sublayer is either zero or intermediate that of the first buffer sublayer and that of the second. The low aluminum proportion of the third buffer sublayer serves to prevent two-dimensional electron gas from generating in the buffer region and hence to make this region sufficiently high in resistance to inhibit current leakage from the HEMTs or MESFETs.

A light-emitting diode having a silicon substrate on which there are successively formed a buffer layer, a p-type nitride semiconductor layer, an active layer, an n-type nitride semiconductor layer, and a current spreading layer. The current spreading layer is a lamination of a first and a second sublayer arranged alternately a required number of times. Composed of different compound semiconductors, the alternating sublayers of the current spreading layer create heterojunctions for offering the two-dimensional gas effect. The current spreading layer is so low in resistivity in a direction parallel to its major surface from which light is emitted, that the current is favorably spread therein for improved efficiency of light emission. A front electrode in the form of a metal pad is mounted centrally on the major surface of the current spreading layer in ohmic contact therewith.

A noise-cancelling headphone is provided that prevents degradation in the sound quality of the sound output from the driver unit caused by the sounds leaking through the vent hole for adjusting the sound quality. The noise-cancelling headphone includes a housing unit having an interior and an exterior, a driver unit attached to the housing unit, and a microphone collecting sound at the exterior of the housing unit. The housing unit includes an accommodating portion accommodating the microphone and a vent hole establishing communication between an air chamber behind the driver unit and the exterior of the housing unit. The housing unit is constructed such that emitted sounds from the vent hole are prevented from being collected by the microphone.

The invention is to provide a method in which waviness generated on a glass substrate surface during pre-polishing is removed, thereby finishing the glass substrate so as to have a surface excellent in flatness. The invention relates to a method for finishing a pre-polished glass substrate surface using any one of processing methods selected from the group consisting of ion beam etching, gas cluster ion beam etching and plasma etching, the glass substrate being made of quartz glass that contains a dopant and comprises SiO2 as a main component, and the method for finishing a pre-polished glass substrate surface including: a step of measuring flatness of the glass substrate surface using a shape measurement unit that comprises: a low-coherent light source whose outgoing light flux has a coherence length shorter than twice an optical distance between front and back surfaces of the glass substrate; a path match route part that divides the outgoing light flux from the low-coherent light source into two light fluxes, causes one of the two light fluxes to make a detour by a given optical path length relative to the other light flux, and then recombines the light fluxes into a single light flux and outputs it; and an interference optical system that acquires an interference fringe which carries wave surface information of the glass substrate surface by radiating an outgoing light flux from the low-coherent light source onto a reference surface and the glass substrate surface held on a measurement optical axis and making lights returning from the reference surface and the glass substrate surface interfere with each other; and a step of measuring a concentration distribution of the dopant contained in the glass substrate, wherein processing conditions of the glass substrate surface are set up for each site of the glass substrate based on the results obtained from the step of measuring flatness of the glass substrate and the step of measuring a concentration distribution of the dopant contained in the glass substrate, and the finishing is carried out while keeping an angle formed by a normal line of the glass substrate and an incident beam onto the glass substrate surface at from 30 to 89°.
