    摘要: In the method for manufacturing a semiconductor substrate, a concavity and a connecting hole for connecting the concavity to the outside are formed on a lower face side of a first substrate, and the first substrate is laminated with a second substrate in an atmosphere at atmospheric pressure. A diaphragm is formed by thinning the first substrate from its upper face by polishing. A sealing hole reaching to the connecting hole is formed from the upper face of the first substrate. An oxide film is formed in the sealing hole in a vacuum, whereby the connecting hole is sealed while the pressure of the pressure reference chamber is reduced to a vacuum. In this way, since the pressure reference chamber is pressure-reduced in a final stage, the diaphragm can be prevented from deforming due to pressure difference during polishing.

    摘要: A semiconductor physical quantity sensor has a P-type semiconductor substrate and an N-type semiconductor layer formed on a main surface of the P-type semiconductor substrate. A displaceable portion is formed by electrochemically etching the P-type semiconductor substrate from a side of the main surface. At that time, a buried insulation film formed to penetrate the N-type semiconductor layer and to extend into the P-type semiconductor substrate is used as a stopper for the etching. Accordingly, an etched region can be restricted by the buried insulation film, so that the displaceable portion can be precisely formed.

    摘要: A mass portion of a movable portion is supported by an anchor portion protruding from a substrate through a beam portion. A stopper portion fixed to the substrate through another anchor portion is disposed on a side opposite to the mass portion with respect to the beam portion to define a gap with the beam portion. The stopper portion is electrically connected to the beam portion through the anchor portions. Accordingly, the movable portion is restricted from being displaced in a direction generally parallel to a surface of the substrate, and a movable electrode of the movable portion is prevented from being attached to the fixed electrode.

    摘要: When a diaphragm portion of the pressure sensor or the like is fabricated, anisotropic etching is needed. This etching is carried out by electrochemically stopped etching. During this process, a voltage is applied to the diaphragm portion. A diode is connected between said diaphragm portion and an integrated circuit to prevent the voltage from being applied to the integrated circuit connected with the diaphragm portion. The diode is obtained by shorting the base and collector of a lateral p-n-p transistor to each other. A collector region is formed offset from immediately under a conductor pattern to prevent a parasitic MOS effect from producing a channel serving as a leakage current path. Further, a heavily doped n-type diffused region acting as a channel stopper is formed along the outer periphery of the collector region.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided. The device is manufactured with use of an SOI (Silicon On Insulator) substrate having a first silicon layer, an oxide layer, and a second silicon layer laminated in this order. After forming a trench reaching the oxide layer from the second silicon layer, dry etching is performed, thus allowing the oxide layer located at the trench bottom to be charged at first. This charging forces etching ions to impinge upon part of the second silicon layer located laterally to the trench bottom. Such part is removed, forming a movable section. For example, ions to neutralize the electric charges are administered into the trench, so that the electric charges are removed from charged movable electrodes and their charged surrounding regions. Removing the electric charges prevents the movable section to stick to its surrounding portions.

    摘要: A pressure sensor includes a semiconductor substrate and a pedestal member such as a glass pedestal. The semiconductor substrate has a diaphragm for detecting a pressure and a thick portion positioned around the diaphragm. The pedestal member has one surface bonded to the thick portion of the semiconductor substrate and the other surface opposite to the one surface. In the pressure sensor, the pedestal member has a through hole through which pressure is introduced to the diaphragm. The through hole penetrates through the pedestal member from an opening of the other surface to the one surface of the pedestal member, and the through hole has a hole diameter that becomes smaller from the one surface toward the other surface of the pedestal member. Accordingly, it can effectively restrict foreign materials such as dusts from being introduced into the through hole of the pressure sensor.

    摘要: An etching method for a silicon substrate, which can easily smooth the etching surface of the (110)-oriented silicon, is disclosed. A container is filled with KOH solution. In the KOH solution is immersed a (110)-oriented silicon wafer having a PN junction and is also disposed a platinum electrode plate to face the silicon wafer. To between a platinum electrode of the silicon wafer and the platinum electrode plate are connected a constant voltage power source, an ammeter and a contact in series. A controller starts etching from one surface on which the PN junction is formed, and terminates voltage application when the specified time lapses after the formation of an anodic oxide film is equilibrated with the etching of the anodic oxide film on the etching surface on the PN junction part. In this case, the controller detects flowing current through the ammeter, and the point of time when the equilibrium state is obtained is the point of inflection of the detected current to the constant current after the peak thereof.
