    摘要: A semiconductor sensor has gauge resistors. The gauge resistors connect with aluminum electrodes through contact holes, and form a bridge circuit. The gauge resistors are formed on each chip area of a semiconductor substrate before dicing the chip areas. Then, the resistances of the gauge resistors or the output of the bridge circuit are measured. Contact positions of the gauge resistors or the size and/or shape of the contact holes are adjusted based on the result of the measurement in order to adjust the offset voltage of the bridge circuit formed on each chip area.

    摘要: A semiconductor acceleration sensor capable of reducing a leakage current and manufacturing method thereof is disclosed. A beam structure is disposed on a silicon substrate. The beam structure has a movable section, and the movable section is disposed spaced at a prescribed distance above silicon substrate. A movable electrode section is formed in one portion of movable section. Fixed electrodes made of an impurity diffusion layer are formed in silicon substrate to correspond to both sides of a movable electrode section. A peripheral circuit is formed in silicon substrate. The beam structure and the peripheral circuit are electrically connected by an electroconductive thin film, made of polysilicon. Then, when a voltage is applied to the beam structure, and a voltage is applied to both fixed electrodes, an inversion layer is formed, and an electrical current flows between the fixed electrodes. In the case where an acceleration is received and movable section is displaced, the electrical current flowing between the fixed electrodes changes.

    摘要: A semiconductor acceleration sensor according to the present invention performs acceleration detection by means of detecting increase or decrease in electrical current flowing between fixed electrodes formed on a semiconductor substrate taking a movable section in a movable state supported on the semiconductor substrate as a gate electrode. Two transistor structures are utilized in this detection. Current between fixed electrodes in one transistor structure increases when the movable section is subjected to acceleration and is displaced. At that time, current between fixed electrodes in the other transistor structure decreases. These two transistor structures are disposed proximately. By means of this proximate disposition, fluctuations in characteristics of both transistors are reduced, and by means of acceleration detection by differential type, temperature characteristics of the two transistors can be canceled favorably.

    摘要: A method for fabricating a semiconductor sensor wherein deflection of a movable member is disclosed. A silicon oxide film is formed on a silicon substrate, and a movable member composed of polycrystalline silicon is formed on the silicon oxide film by means of a low-pressured chemical vapor deposition process. At this time, silane is caused to flow into an oven, and the supply of silane is stopped when a layer of polycrystalline silicon has been deposited on the silicon substrate, and a first polycrystalline silicon layer is formed. By means of stopping the supply of silane, a silicon oxide layer of a thickness of several angstroms to several tens of angstroms is formed on the first polycrystalline silicon layer by atmosphere O.sub.2. A second polycrystalline silicon layer of a thickness of 1 .mu.m is formed on the silicon oxide layer by means of causing silane to flow into the oven. Patterning by dry etching or the like through a photo-lithographic process is performed to form a movable member. The silicon oxide film below the movable member is then etched.

    摘要: It is an object to provide a method of fabrication for a semiconductor acceleration sensor which can prevent destruction of a movable portion during dicing. A sacrificial layer composed of silicon oxide film is formed on a silicon substrate, and a movable member composed of polycrystalline silicon is formed on the sacrificial layer. A polyimide film is applied on the movable member at room temperature and heated to approximately 350.degree. C. to harden. The movable member is supported by this polyimide film. Accordingly, etching liquid penetration holes are formed on the polyimide film. Further, the sacrificial layer disposed between the movable member and the silicon substrate is etched away by means of dipping the silicon substrate into hydrofluoric acid-based etching liquid. Thereafter, the silicon substrate is dipped into demineralized water to replace the etching liquid with demineralized water, and subsequently the silicon substrate is dried. Accordingly, the silicon substrate is diced and thereafter the polyimide film is etched away by O.sub.2 ashing.
