A germanium fraction of the second silicon germanium layer decreases in the direction away from the base substrate, and a germanium fraction of a lowermost part of the second silicon germanium layer is greater than a germanium fraction of an uppermost part of the first silicon germanium layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a buffer layer on a semiconductor substrate including first and second regions, a first channel layer on the buffer layer of the first region, a second channel layer on the buffer layer of the second region, and a spacer layer between the second channel layer and the buffer layer. The buffer layer, the first and second channel layers, and the spacer layer are formed of semiconductor materials including germanium. A germanium concentration difference between the first and second channel layers is greater than a germanium concentration difference between the buffer layer and the second channel layer. The spacer layer has a germanium concentration gradient.

An interposer for an optical module includes a first substrate having an optical device mounting part on which an optical device is mounted, and a second substrate including a connection via electrically connected to a terminal pattern of the optical device mounting part. The first and second substrates are coupled with each other while forming a predetermined inclination angle therebetween.
Abstract:
A spacer covering a sidewall of a contact plug includes a relatively more damaged first portion and a relatively less damaged second portion. An interface of the first and second portions of the spacer is spaced apart from a metal silicide layer of the contact plug. Thus reliability of the semiconductor device may be improved. Related fabrication methods are also described.

Disclosed herein is a solder paste droplet ejection apparatus including: a nozzle cap forming an appearance and including a heating electric wire provided inside thereof; a nozzle unit formed inside the nozzle cap, spaced apart from the nozzle cap, and surrounded by the nozzle cap; an ejection probe formed inside the nozzle unit, spaced apart from the nozzle unit, and surrounded by the nozzle unit; and a transfer unit formed in a top portion of the nozzle cap and used for a minute movement, wherein a solder paste supplied in a space between the nozzle unit and the ejection probe is ejected in a droplet shape along the ejection probe.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a solder sheet and a soldering method using the same. The solder sheet includes: a plurality of solder rods arranged to have a uniform height h and an area density N; and a support having an adhesive formed on one surface thereof and supporting the plurality of solder rods such that one end of each of the plurality of solder rods is attached to be perpendicular to the surface on which the adhesive is formed. Solder bumps can be formed on soldering portions of the substrate by using the solder sheet through a single process without a mask, and thus, the process can be simplified, costs can be reduced, and a defect rate can be lowered, thereby enhancing reliability.
Abstract:
