An unguarded Schottky barrier diode structure, which may be part of an integrated device, is provided that blocks the formation of a parasitic MIS diode at the diode's perimeter. The diode is formed in a semiconductive material which may comprise silicon. The portion of the semiconductive material at which the diode is formed may be called a diode portion of the semiconductive material. A highly conductive buried layer is provided under the diode portion of the semiconductive material. The highly conductive buried layer may comprise TiW, Ti, or TiN. The highly conductive buried layer extends laterally to a conductive plug extending to an upper conductive layer of the integrated or other device. A laterally extended silicide region is provided, which extends laterally to a perimeter. The silicide region comprises a lower semiconductor contact area on top of and in contact with the semiconductive material. The lower semiconductor contact area extends laterally to the perimeter. An insulative barrier is provided which surrounds the perimeter of the silicide region. A side wall spacer is provided which extends from the lateral edge portion of the insulative barrier to cover and contact part of the perimeter, thereby physically blocking formation of a parasitic MIS diode at the perimeter. A conductive diffusion barrier layer covers at least portions of the insulative barrier, the side wall spacer, and the silicide region.

摘要:
A heat pipe stablized specimen container for irradiation of specimens at substantially constant temperature within a liquid metal cooled fast reactor comprises a heat pipe containing a vaporizable substance such as sodium. The container is of double-walled construction with the gap filled with argon and at top of the container a volume of argon is trapped within a cavity of the liquid metal level within the container in such a way that retention of argon in this zone is not dependent on sealing welds in the structure of the container, the argon blanket in this zone affording thermal insulation at the top of the container and also around part of the heat pipe, viz an adiabatic section of the latter. The heat pipe includes three layer wick structure 84 comprising an outer relatively fine mesh layer, a coarse intermediate layer and a fine inner layer for promoting unimpeded return of condensate to the evaporation section of the heat pipe while enhancing heat transfer with the heat pipe wall and reducing entrainment of the condensate by the upwardly rising vapor.
