摘要:
A stainless steel separator, which is good of corrosion-resistance and low of contact-resistance, is proposed for a fuel cell. Its surface faced to a fuel electrode is pickled, which the other surface faced to an oxidizing electrode is roughened by electrolytic etching or the like. The roughening treatment may be performed before or after pickling and passivation. The roughened surface of the stainless steel separator without pickling or passivation may be faced to the oxidizing electrode.

Disclosed is an optical semiconductor integrated circuit device, in which an opening portion is formed in an insulating layer, which is formed in a light receiving region of a photodiode, and the insulating layer is covered with a refractory metal layer as a light shadowing film. As result, since the refractory metal layer has an excellent step coverage, the refractory metal layer is not broken by a step of the opening portion located on an upper plane of a region where the photodiode is formed. Accordingly, a problem that the light shadowing film is broken when Al is used as the light shadowing film is solved.

A method is provided for forming a microstructure with an interfacial oxide layer by using a diffusion filter layer to control the oxidation properties of a substrate associated with formation of a high-k layer into the microstructure. The diffusion filter layer controls the oxidation of the surface. The interfacial oxide layer can be formed during an oxidation process that is carried out following deposition of a high-k layer onto the diffusion filter layer, or during deposition of a high-k layer onto the diffusion filter layer.

A semiconductor IC including a resistance element on a circuit substrate. The resistance element includes a resistance layer formed on an insulating layer. The resistance layer is formed using a Si layer obtained by forming an a-Si layer, doping the a-Si layer with impurities, and heating the doped a-Si layer to diffuse the impurities while substantially preserving the fineness of the a-Si layer surface. Preferably, a SiN layer is provided lying beneath the resistance layer. A capacitor may be integrated on the same circuit substrate where the resistance element is formed. In this case, a lower electrode, a SiN dielectric layer, and an upper electrode are formed in this order to constitute a capacitor. The SiN dielectric layer of the capacitor is formed extending from a capacitor formation region to another region, so that the resistance layer of the resistance element is formed on the extending SiN dielectric layer. The lower and upper electrodes of the capacitor may be formed using an a-Si layer, similar to the resistance layer.
摘要:
When a combination head is on-tracked to an arbitrary cylinder position, a head position controller corrects a head position so as to eliminate an offset amount derived from an offset table. A bias current setting circuit obtains a current set value corresponding to an offset correction amount from a bias current table and supplies the bias current according to the current set value to an MR head. As kinds of offsets, there are a yaw angle offset, a thermal offset, and a core deviation offset.
