A spark plug includes a metal shell, a center electrode secured in the metal shell and isolated from the metal shell, a ground electrode joined to the metal shell. A Pt-based chip joined to at least one of confronting portions of the center electrode and the ground electrode. The Pt-based chip has a granulated crystal structure. A range of an average grain diameter of the Pt-based chip is defined through experimental investigation so as to suppress an accumulation of crystal grains in a spark gap of the spark plug.

摘要:
Conventionally, a particle/defect inspection apparatus outputs a total number of detected particles/defects as the result of detection. For taking countermeasures to failures in manufacturing processes, the particles/defects detected by the inspection apparatus are analyzed. Since the inspection apparatus outputs a large number of detected particles/defects, an immense time is required for analyzing the detected particles/defects, resulting in a delay in taking countermeasures to a failure in the manufacturing processes. In the present invention, an apparatus for optically inspecting particles or defects relates a particle or defect size to a cause of failure in an inspection result. A data processing circuit points out a cause of failure from the statistics on the inspection result, and displays information on the inspection result. A failure analysis is conducted by setting a threshold for identifying a failure in each of regions on a semiconductor device or the like to statistically evaluate detected particles.

摘要:
Inspection apparatuses of an inspection apparatus group are connected to a network and transfer inspected result to a data collection system. The same wafer selected from a specific process is inspected by the different inspection apparatuses and the inspected data are collected and analyzed to calculate a correlation degree among the inspection apparatuses. On the other hand, the course of occurrence of failures in the same process can be analyzed to thereby calculate an average occurrence frequency of failures. An optimum inspection apparatus and inspection frequency are successively obtained on the basis of calculated results of an inter-apparatus correlation degree calculation process and a failure occurrence frequency calculation process, so that a feeding method of wafers to the inspection apparatus group is indicated through an inspection apparatus group management system. In the manufacturing of electronic components, complicated conditions such as the optimum inspection apparatus to be applied, the inspection frequency and the like can be set easily and the expected total loss value can be minimized to improve the economical efficiency of inspection remarkably.
