Using a seed crystal comprising a silicon single crystal not including a vacancy excess region, a neck comprising a silicon single crystal not including a vacancy excess region is grown with a diameter contracted smaller than, or equal to that of the contact surface of the silicon seed crystal in contact with a raw material silicon melt, and necking is performed so that the length L of the neck satisfies L≧d·(cot ψ), where d denotes the length of the diameter or the diagonal of the contact surface of the silicon seed crystal in contact with the raw material silicon melt, and ψ denotes the angle formed between the propagation direction of dislocations and the growth direction of the neck, and then the silicon single crystal is grown with the diameter expanded.

A method for cleaning electronic devices including the step of cleaning a target substrate placed in a cleaning chamber by etching using a cleaning solution which is circulated for reuse in a cleaning solution circulation path including at least the cleaning chamber and a cleaning solution circulation line, the method further including the steps of: (a) determining etch time based on data concerning variations in amount of a target film on the target substrate etched by the cleaning solution, the variations depending on time elapsed since the cleaning solution was fed into the cleaning solution circulation path; (b) etching the target substrate in the cleaning chamber using the cleaning solution for the determined etch time; and (c) rinsing the target substrate with water.

A flow controller and a flow controlling method are adapted to be released from conventional restrictions by using a novel type called a pulse shot type. A pulse shot (opening/closing operation of a first cutoff valve (12) and, after that, opening/closing operation of a second cutoff valve (17)) is repeated. Simultaneously, a volume flow Q of process gas exhausted from the second cutoff valve (17) per unit time on the basis of after-filling pressure and after-exhaust pressure of the process gas in a gas filling capacity (13) measure by a pressure sensor (14). Furthermore, a mode of the pulse shot is changed to control the volume flow Q of the process gas exhausted from the second cutoff valve (17) per unit time.

At the time of fabricating a silicon single crystal wafer from a nitrogen-doped silicon single crystal grown according to the Czochralski method, a silicon single crystal wafer covered with a region in which an oxygen precipitation bulk micro defect and an oxidation induced stacking fault mixedly exist is subjected to heat treatment at a temperature of 1100 to 1300° C. in a reducing gas or inert gas atmosphere. In such a manner, a method of fabricating a high-quality silicon single crystal wafer and a silicon single crystal wafer in which no grown-in crystal defects exist in the whole surface and oxygen precipitation bulk micro defects (BMD) are formed at a sufficiently high density to display the IG effect on the inner side can be provided. The single crystal wafer can be suitably used to form an operation region of a semiconductor device.

In an electric power supply for supplying electric power, after a power factor has been improved, to an equipment having a power saving mode which is transferred to the power saving mode when the equipment is not operated for a predetermined period of time, the electric power supply includes: a power factor improvement section for improving the power factor by a switching operation; and a switch provided between a power source and the power factor improvement section for switching the electric power to either the power factor improvement section or the equipment. When the equipment is transferred to the power saving mode, the electric power is supplied by the switch to the equipment without passing through the power factor improvement section.

A seismosensitive element includes a housing formed from an electrically conductive material and having an inclined face formed on the bottom thereof to gradually rise concentrically outwardly substantially from a center of the inner bottom face, and a header fixed to the housing to close its open end and having through-aperture in which an electrically conductive terminal pin is fixed in an insulated relation. A contact is fixed an end of the terminal pin located inside the housing and has a plurality of feather portions disposed concentrically with the terminal pin, the feather portions having a predetermined elasticity. An inertia ball is enclosed in the housing to be located substantially at the center in the housing in a normal position of the element in a stationary state. The inertia ball rolls when subjected to oscillation, so that the inertia ball slides on the feather portions of the contact except for distal ends of the feather portions such that the inertia ball electrically conducts between the contact and the housing and such that the feather portions are elastically deformed, thereby receiving a force causing the same to be pushed against the bottom of the housing. An acceleration responsive switch includes a receptacle including a housing having a conical face, an inertial ball in the receptacle, and an oscillation damping liquid in the receptacle. The oscillation damping liquid has a viscosity such that the inertial ball terminates rotation when it is subjected to an external oscillation to be rotated.

An improved surface treatment system, assembly, workstation and method for plating and the like. The assembly includes a suction pump along the treating liquid discharge end to circulate treatment fluid and avoid leakage. The assembly includes a member defining a fluid passage within the interior surface of a workpiece which is connected to a treating liquid feed channel and a treating liquid discharge channel. Advantageously, a washing fluid inlet is provided to permit a workpiece to be both treated and washed at the same workstation. The assembly may be used with a cover as an additional means to avoid leakage.
摘要:
There is a trend to increase that area of a device requiring a memory of large capacity, which is occupied by a semiconductor memory. This trend obstructs reduction of the size of the device. The present invention contemplates to provide a memory which can have a high integration, a high density and a large capacity while minimizing the mounting area. In order to achieve this memory, the TAB (Tape Automated Bonding) of the prior art is mounted on an electrically conductive connector, and a plurality of structures composed of the TAB and the connector are stacked. Moreover, the connector mounting the TAB thereon is constructed such that the independent terminals of the stacked TABs may not be shorted.
