    摘要: In the method for manufacturing a semiconductor substrate, a concavity and a connecting hole for connecting the concavity to the outside are formed on a lower face side of a first substrate, and the first substrate is laminated with a second substrate in an atmosphere at atmospheric pressure. A diaphragm is formed by thinning the first substrate from its upper face by polishing. A sealing hole reaching to the connecting hole is formed from the upper face of the first substrate. An oxide film is formed in the sealing hole in a vacuum, whereby the connecting hole is sealed while the pressure of the pressure reference chamber is reduced to a vacuum. In this way, since the pressure reference chamber is pressure-reduced in a final stage, the diaphragm can be prevented from deforming due to pressure difference during polishing.

    摘要: An etching method for a silicon substrate, which can easily smooth the etching surface of the (110)-oriented silicon, is disclosed. A container is filled with KOH solution. In the KOH solution is immersed a (110)-oriented silicon wafer having a PN junction and is also disposed a platinum electrode plate to face the silicon wafer. To between a platinum electrode of the silicon wafer and the platinum electrode plate are connected a constant voltage power source, an ammeter and a contact in series. A controller starts etching from one surface on which the PN junction is formed, and terminates voltage application when the specified time lapses after the formation of an anodic oxide film is equilibrated with the etching of the anodic oxide film on the etching surface on the PN junction part. In this case, the controller detects flowing current through the ammeter, and the point of time when the equilibrium state is obtained is the point of inflection of the detected current to the constant current after the peak thereof.

    摘要: A semiconductor pressure detection device includes a diaphragm formed at a portion of a P- conductivity type semiconductor substrate having a reduced thickness. Gauge resistors are formed on the surface of an N- conductivity type semiconductor layer formed on the substrate. An N+ conductivity type diffusion layer is formed in the N- conductivity type semiconductor layer to fix the electric potential of the N- conductivity type layer. The first conductivity type area surrounds the diaphragm. Therefore, when the N- conductivity type area is supplied with electric potential, the potential gradient in the N- conductivity type layer is small. Thus, the leakage current which flows to a pn junction between the gauge resistors and the N- conductivity type area is reduced.

    摘要: The electrochemical stop etching is favorably carried out by the application of any voltage without permitting current that is caused by aluminum remainder to leak and avoiding short-circuits between the low-resistance layer in the scribe region and the isolation. In a method of producing semiconductor devices relying upon the electrochemical stop etching, major circuits are constituted and ground aluminum wirings 5 are formed on at least one surface of a substrate 7, and their peripheries are surrounded by scribe regions to form a plurality of chip patterns 1. On the same surface of the substrate 7 where chip patterns 1 are formed, aluminum wirings 3 for etching are formed via a field oxide film 10 while maintaining a predetermined gap relative to the GND aluminum wirings and maintaining an equal height and surrounding the chip patterns 1 in the scribe regions. The neighboring aluminum wirings 3 for etching are electrically connected together among the chip patterns 1 that neighbor one another, and a predetermined voltage is applied to the aluminum wirings 3 for etching to effect the electrochemical stop etching.

    摘要: It is intended to provide an etching method for semiconductor devices in which the etching depth or the thickness of a thin thickness portion can be precisely controlled. According to experiment results, when a P-type substrate in which an N-type epitaxial layer is formed is immersed in an etching solution such as KOH or the like, and a voltage for reverse bias of PN junction is applied between an electrode plate opposing the substrate and the epitaxial layer to perform electrochemical etching, it has been found that the distance from the PN junction plane to the etching stop position is approximately equal to a depletion layer width at the substrate side of the PN junction portion. Namely, the etching stops at the forward end of the depletion layer. Therefore, the junction depletion layer width at the substrate side is controlled to be a size obtained by subtracting a necessary depth for etching from a thickness of the semiconductor substrate except for the semiconductor layer, so that the etching depth or the thickness of the thin thickness portion remaining after etching can be precisely controlled.

    摘要: A method of producing a semiconductor dynamic sensor which features an improved sensitivity yet having a small size while avoiding damage to the thin distortion-producing portion. A resist film 49 is photo-patterned on the front main surface of the semiconductor substrate 41 except for the region where the upper isolation grooves are to be formed prior to forming the lower isolation groove 10 by the first etching of the back main surface of the semiconductor substrate 41 (which includes the epitaxial layer 42). Unlike the prior art, therefore, there is no need to spin-coat the front main surface of the semiconductor substrate 41 with the resist film 49 which is followed by photo-patterning after a predetermined region of the semiconductor substrate 41 has been reduced in thickness by the first etching. Therefore, damage therefore to the thin portion by the vacuum chucking the wafer during the spin-coating of the resist film is avoided.
