摘要:
A shift register having a plurality of stages connected in cascade shifts an output signal by a plurality of clocks having different phases. Each of the stage includes an input diode to which a signal is input from a preceding stage, a capacitor for holding charge having a voltage level of the input signal, a first transistor that is turned on or off by the held voltage level to output an output signal to a following stage in synchronization with a clock signal, and a second transistor connected between the input diode and an output terminal. A control electrode of the second transistor is connected to the input diode in the following stage. The second transistor has a clamping function for discharging the accumulated charge and turning off the first transistor when the clock signal is phase-shifted.

摘要:
An apparatus which allows a first film to be formed on a substrate by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and a second film to be formed on the substrate by sputtering, wherein the processes are performed sequentially in the same deposition chamber without exposing the substrate to an oxidative atmosphere. The deposition chamber includes a first electrode and a second electrode located under the first electrode. A transfer mechanism loads a dummy target onto the first electrode and the substrate onto the second electrode prior to a CVD process. The dummy target is resistant to sputtering and thus does not contaminate the film deposited on the substrate during CVD. After CVD and prior to sputtering, the transfer mechanism unloads the dummy target and replaces it with a sputtering target for film formation by sputtering. Both the dummy target and sputtering target can be loaded and unloaded from a single pressurized storage chamber. Thus, film formation by both sputtering and CVD can be accomplished by using a single deposition chamber without removing the substrate between processes.

An etching agent and an electronic device manufacturing method using the etching agent. The etching agent contains, in a solution, hydrofluoric acid at a concentration of 0.05 to 0.5 mol/l, and halooxoacid ions, represented by the formula (XO.sub.n).sup.p- (wherein X is a halogen element, n is 3, 4 or 6, p is 1, 2 or 3), at a concentration of at least 0.01 mol/l.
