摘要:
A thin-film device incorporates a device main body and four terminal electrodes. The device main body has four side surfaces. The terminal electrodes are disposed to touch respective portions of the side surfaces. The device main body includes a lower conductor layer that is not used to form a passive element, and an upper conductor layer used to form the passive element. The upper and lower conductor layers include respective lead electrode portions that have respective end faces located at the side surfaces of the device main body. At the side surfaces of the device main body, the end face of the lead electrode portion of the lower conductor layer and the end face of the lead electrode portion of the upper conductor layer are electrically and physically connected to each other. The terminal electrodes touch these end faces and are thereby connected to the upper and lower conductor layers.

A thin-film device incorporates: a substrate; an insulating layer, a plurality of lower conductor layers, a dielectric film, an insulating layer, a plurality of upper conductor layers and a protection film that are stacked in this order on the substrate; and a plurality of terminal electrodes. One of the terminal electrodes is connected to one of the lower conductor layers. The one of the lower conductor layers has a protruding portion that protrudes to extend more outward in a lateral direction than a side surface of the insulating layer. The one of the terminal electrodes has a concave portion that accommodates and touches at least part of the protruding portion, and touches the side surface of the insulating layer.

An oxide film formed on the surface of copper film of an electrode pad is cleaned by oxalic acid after unevenness is formed on the surface of copper film by treating the surface with organic acid. Thereby, stable resistance is obtained when carrying out a characteristic inspection by bringing a probe into contact with the electrode pad, and it is easily recognized by observation through a microscope that the probe is brought into contact with the electrode pad. In addition, wettability with respect to solder is satisfactory, and it is possible to favorably form a solder bump on the electrode pad.

A tubular channel is disposed in a path of air that flows from an inlet to a dirty side. The cross sectional area of the tubular channel is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the inlet. A dust outlet is disposed in a wall in a path of the air that flows out of the exit of the tubular channels to the dirty side. The dust outlet extends through the wall of the air cleaner from the inside to the outside. As the air blasts out of the dust outlet, dust in the air cleaner is discharged to the outside.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes measuring the reflectance at the surface of a semiconductor substrate provided with concave portions and deciding a deposition parameter that represents a deposition condition corresponding to the measured reflectance. Then, a metal film is formed on the semiconductor substrate under a condition corresponding to the deposition parameter.

A thin-film device incorporates: a substrate; an insulating layer, a lower conductor layer, a dielectric film, an insulating layer, an upper conductor layer and a protection film that are stacked in this order on the substrate; and four terminal electrodes. The four terminal electrodes touch part of end faces of the upper conductor layer, and part of the top surface of the upper conductor layer contiguous to the end faces. The protection film has four concave portions, each of which has a shape that is recessed inward from the edge of the protection film except portions thereof corresponding to these concave portions. The four concave portions expose respective portions of the top surface of the upper conductor layer that touch the four terminal electrodes. The four concave portions accommodate respective portions of the four terminal electrodes.

An improved SIV resistance and an improved EM resistance are achieved in the coupling structure containing copper films. A semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor substrate; a second insulating layer formed on or over the semiconductor substrate; a second barrier metal film, formed on the second insulating film, and being capable of preventing copper from diffusing into the second insulating film; and an electrically conducting film formed on the second barrier metal film so as to be in contact with the second barrier metal film, and containing copper and carbon, wherein a distribution of carbon concentration along a depositing direction in the second electrically conducting film includes a first peak and a second peak.

A thin-film device comprises: a substrate; a flattening film made of an insulating material and disposed on the substrate; and a capacitor provided on the flattening film. The capacitor incorporates: a lower conductor layer disposed on the flattening film; a dielectric film disposed on the lower conductor layer; and an upper conductor layer disposed on the dielectric film. The thickness of the dielectric film falls within a range of 0.02 to 1 μm inclusive and is smaller than the thickness of the lower conductor layer. The surface roughness in maximum height of the top surface of the flattening film is smaller than that of the top surface of the substrate and equal to or smaller than the thickness of the dielectric film. The surface roughness in maximum height of the top surface of the lower conductor layer is equal to or smaller than the thickness of the dielectric film.

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, a lower insulating film formed on the semiconductor substrate, an interconnect-forming metal film provided so as to fill a recess formed in the surficial portion of the lower insulating film, and containing copper as a major constituent, an upper insulating film formed on the lower insulating film, and a metal-containing layer formed between the lower insulating film and the upper insulating film, and containing a metal different from copper. The metal-containing layer includes a first region in contact with the interconnect-forming metal film, and a second region in contact with the lower insulating film, and having a composition different from that of the first region, and contains substantially no nitrogen at least in the first region.
