摘要:
A method whereby perovskite type oxide dielectric thin films with ABO.sub.3 structure are able to be formed with such features as good stability, uniformity, reproducibility, or the like, with high through-put by having a deposition process, wherein the thin films are deposited on a substrate, and a stabilization process, where no deposition of the thin films takes place, repeated alternatingly while the substrate temperature being kept near the temperature at which perovskite type oxide dielectric thin films are formed. Also, by employing (i) a processing method wherein a decomposing excitation of a reactive gas due to plasma takes place on or near the deposition surface in a gaseous atmosphere comprising a gas that reacts with the elements composing the thin films, (ii) a processing method wherein an oxidation reaction takes place on the deposition surface in a gaseous atmosphere comprising at least ozone (O.sub.3), and (iii) a processing method wherein light of short wave length is irradiated on the deposition surface in a gaseous atmosphere comprising at least reactive elements in the non-deposition process, the oxygen concentration in the deposited thin films is adjusted and dielectric thin films of good quality and an extremely low defect content are realized.

A plasma analyzer for trace element analysis has a gas supply system comprising a plurality of gas sources, an electromagnetic valve provided on a line connecting each gas source to a plasma generating space, a buffer tank provided after the electromagnetic valve on the line, and a flow regulating flowmeter provided after the buffer tank on the line. Each electromagnetic valves is controlled for on-off operation and the corresponding buffer tank suppresses the sudden change of the flow rate of the corresponding gas, so that the composition of the gas supplied to the plasma generating space changes gradually in spite of the simple on-off operation of the electromagnetic valves. Thus, the fluctuation and extinction of the plasma attributable to the sudden change of the composition of the gas supplied to the plasma generating space can be effectively prevented.

An impurity doped SiC substrate 1 and SiC thin film 2 are irradiated with a laser light 5 having a wavelength longer than such a wavelength that a band edge absorption of a semiconductor is caused. The wavelength of the laser light 5 may be such a wavelength that an absorption is caused by a vibration by the bond of an impurity element and an element constituting the semiconductor, for example, a wavelength of 9 &mgr;m to 11 &mgr;m. Specifically, in the case where Al is doped in SiC, the wavelength of the laser light 5 may be within the range of 9.5 &mgr;m to 10 &mgr;m.
摘要:
A large area semiconductor element can be manufactured with high productivity, which has low electric resistance at the boundary face of a metal and a semiconductor and has excellent characteristics and reliability. A manufacturing apparatus comprises an ion irradiation means for simultaneously irradiating hydrogen ions and ions containing an element serving as a dopant of a semiconductor to a semiconductor film or a substrate in an atmosphere under reduced pressure, and a film forming means which forms a thin film or a heat treatment means which conducts a heat treatment without exposing a sample to an air. When a sample having an a-Si:H thin film is brought into a sample preparation chamber by opening a gate valve, the chamber is exhausted to have the inside pressure of 10.sup.2 to 10.sup.-3 Pa. Then, the sample is forwarded to an ion irradiation chamber from the sample preparation chamber via an intermediate chamber of which the pressure is maintained in the range of 10.sup.-3 to 10.sup.-7 Pa, and ions such as phosphous are irradiated. After the ion irradiation, a gate valve is opened to transfer the sample to the intermediate chamber, and then a gate valve is opened to forward the sample to a deposition chamber. Subsequently, Ar gas is let in to the deposition chamber and a metal film of Al/Ti is deposited by a sputtering method. After the deposition, the sample is forwarded to a sample carry-out chamber via the intermediate chamber.

An additive for cholesterol-containing food, containing a rice bran component and/or a derivative thereof as an active ingredient, a method of using same, and food treated thereby; and a process for producing mayonnaise controlled in the rise of a blood cholesterol level, or the absorption of cholesterol. A method of decreasing the effect of cholesterol contained in food on a living organism, for example, controlling the rise of a blood cholesterol level by adding to cholesterol-containing food a food additive capable of forming a complex with cholesterol, such as an extract of a rice bran component, .gamma.-orizanol (.gamma.-OZ) which is a mixture of esters of ferulic acid with various alcohols prepared by refining said extract and/or a derivative of a rice bran component, thereby forming a cholesterol complex of the food additive, whereby the cholesterol contained in food becomes nonabsorbable by a living organism or can be removed therefrom.
