An oscillating angular speed sensor includes a detector, a driving portion, and a separating portion. When an angular speed is generated while the detector is driven to oscillate by the driving portion, Coriolis force is applied to the detector. Therefore, the angular speed is detected based on a capacitance variation in accordance with a variation of an interval between a movable electrode and a fixed electrode of the detector. The separating portion is distanced from the detector and the driving portion, and is configured to separate a first space accommodating the detector and a second space accommodating the driving portion.

A physical quantity sensor includes a sensor portion, a casing, and a vibration isolator. The casing includes a supporting portion with a supporting surface that is located to face an end surface of the sensor portion. The vibration isolator is located between the end surface of the sensor portion and the supporting surface of the casing to join the sensor portion to the casing. The vibration isolator reduces a relative vibration between the sensor portion and the casing.

A semiconductor device includes a first protection film for covering a first metal wiring. A second protection film is disposed on the first protection film, which is covered with a solder layer. Even if a crack is generated in the second protection film before the solder layer is formed on the second protection film, the crack is restricted from proceeding into the first protection film.

In a manufacturing of a semiconductor device, at least one of elements is formed in each of element formation regions of a substrate having a main side and a rear side, and the substrate is thinned by polished from a rear side of the substrate, and then, multiple trenches are formed on the rear side of the substrate, so that each trench reaches the main side of the substrate. After that, an insulating material is deposited over an inner surface of each trench to form an insulating layer in the trench, so that the element formation regions are isolated. Thereby, generation of cracks and structural steps in the substrate and separation of element formation regions from the substrate can be suppressed.

A gallium nitride (GaN) based light emitting diode (LED), wherein light is extracted through a nitrogen face (N-face) (42) of the LED and a surface of the N-face (42) is roughened into one or more hexagonal shaped cones. The roughened surface reduces light reflections occurring repeatedly inside the LED, and thus extracts more light out of the LED. The surface of the N-face (42) is roughened by an anisotropic etching, which may comprise a dry etching or a photo-enhanced chemical (PEC) etching.
