    摘要: A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a first mixed crystal semiconductor layer of AlAs and InAs; applying a solution containing a material easily combining with fluorine to the surface of the first mixed crystal semiconductor layer exposed to the atmosphere so that the material combines with fluorine that sticks to the surface of the first mixed crystal semiconductor layer; and annealing the first mixed crystal semiconductor layer in a vacuum. In this method, since the fluorine on the surface of the first mixed crystal semiconductor layer exposed to the atmosphere combines with the material included in the solution and is removed together with the material, a first mixed crystal semiconductor layer having no fluorine is produced. Therefore, unwanted infiltration of fluorine into the first mixed crystal semiconductor layer is avoided, resulting in a highly reliable semiconductor device with desired characteristics.

    摘要: In a method for fabricating an infrared detector, initially, a CdHgTe layer of a first conductivity type is produced on a front surface of a semiconductor substrate, a plurality of spaced apart CdHgTe regions of a second conductivity type, opposite the first conductivity type, are produced at the surface of the first conductivity type CdHgTe layer, and part of the surface of the first conductivity type CdHgTe layer between the second conductivity type CdHgTe regions is selectively irradiated with a charged particle beam to evaporate Hg atoms from that part, whereby a CdHgTe separation region of the first conductivity type and having a Cd composition larger than that of the first conductivity type CdHgTe layer is produced penetrating through the first conductivity type CdHgTe layer and surrounding each of the second conductivity type CdHgTe regions. Therefore, a highly-integrated high-resolution infrared detector with no crosstalk between pixels is achieved.

Ends of the insulating film pattern are removed by etching to approximately the width of the ridge, a second semiconductor layer is epitaxially grown on opposite sides of the ridge, and a third semiconductor layer is epitaxially grown on the ridge and the second semiconductor layer. The second semiconductor layer is evenly grown without concave portions at opposite sides of the ridge. In addition, the third semiconductor layer is evenly grown on the ridge and the second semiconductor layer, and an electrode reliably connects the surface of the third semiconductor layer. A semiconductor device with good performance and high reliability is reproducibly manufactured.

    摘要: While depositing a III-V compound semiconductor layer from a vapor, carbon is added to group III and V elements to produce a p type conductivity region in the depositing semiconductor layer. Then, a small amount of n type dopant is added to the group III and V elements together with the carbon to produce an n type conductivity region in the depositing semiconductor layer. A sharp and precisely controlled doping profile is produced in the vicinity of a p-n junction, resulting in a semiconductor device having good initial performance and high reliability.

    摘要: A method for producing a semiconductor structure including a semiconductor film formed on a semiconductor substrate body via an insulating film includes: laminating a first insulating film, a first semiconductor film, and a second insulating film on the semiconductor substrate successively; forming stripe-shaped second semiconductor films of predetermined width on the second insulating film arranged periodically at a predetermined interval and covering these second semiconductor films with a third insulating film; performing zone melting recrystallization of the first semiconductor film from one end of the substrate to the opposite end along the stripe direction of the stripe-shaped second semiconductor film; etching the third insulating film and portions of the second insulating film not sandwiched by the first and second semiconductor films; oxidizing portions of the second semiconductor film and the first semiconductor film exposed in the etching step and etching and removing the second insulating film remaining after the previous etching. Thus, a semiconductor substrate including a recrystallized semiconductor film having removed sub-grain-boundaries generated during the zone melting recrystallization, is obtained by fewer process steps than in the prior art.
