摘要:
A method of forming a highly oriented diamond film having a reduced thickness with a high quality at a low cost. Surface of a single crystal substrate is cleaned, and is then left in a high vacuum of 10.sup.-6 Torr or less at a temperature between room temperature and 800.degree. C. for 15 min for releasing gas molecules absorbed on the surface of the substrate. The surface of the substrate is then processed using carbon-containing plasma for forming a barrier of obstructing a carbon component within the substrate. After that, an electric field is applied across the substrate and plasma for allowing a current to flow thereacross for a specified time, to form nuclei of diamond for synthesis of a diamond film. Thus, highly oriented diamond particles or films, in which crystal orientations thereof are epitaxial to the substrate, are synthesized.

Disclosed is a heat-resistant ohmic contact formed on a semiconducting diamond. It has a contact Ti layer having a thickness of 10 to 70 .ANG. and a carbide layer generated by the reaction between the Ti layer and the semiconducting diamond layer. A diffusion prevention layer composed of at least one kind material selected from a group consisting of refractory metals including W, Mo, Au, Pt and Ta, refractory alloys including Ti-W, and refractory compounds including TiC and TiN is formed on the contact Ti layer. With this construction, the diffusion and the oxidation of Ti can be prevented.

A magnetic sensor element using highly-oriented diamond film comprises a magnetic detecting part, at least a pair of main current electrodes for flowing a main current and generating the Hall electromotive force at the magnetic detecting part, and detection electrodes for detecting said Hall electromotive force. Said magnetic detecting part is formed of a highly-oriented diamond film grown by chemical vapor deposition, at least 90% of which consists of either (100) or (111) crystal planes. Between the adjacent crystal planes, the differences {.DELTA..alpha., .DELTA..beta., .DELTA..gamma.} of the Euler angles {.alpha., .beta., .gamma.} which represent the orientation of the crystal planes, satisfy the following relations simultaneously: .vertline..DELTA..alpha..vertline..ltoreq.10.degree., .vertline..DELTA..beta..vertline..ltoreq.10.degree. and .vertline..DELTA..gamma..vertline..ltoreq.10 .degree.. The magnetic sensor element using highly-oriented diamond film has a high heat stability and sufficiently high level of magnetic field sensitivity to be used practically, enabling to expand the surface area and to increase the integration of the element and to measure magnetic field over a wide area and a large space.

A method for manufacturing a multilayered substrate for a semiconductor device, as well as a semiconductor device, is provided, the multilayered substrate exhibiting an excellent thermal conduction property and an excellent heat spreading effect without occurrence of warp and deformation. A diamond layer is formed through vapor phase deposition on one principal surface of a first silicon substrate by a CVD method. A SiO2 layer is formed on this diamond layer. A SiO2 layer is formed on a surface of a second silicon substrate by a thermal oxidation method. The diamond layer is bonded to the second silicon substrate with SiO2 layers disposed on both the diamond layer and the second silicon substrate therebetween. The first silicon substrate is removed by dissolution through etching to expose the surface of the diamond layer. A silicon layer serving as a semiconductor layer is formed on the diamond layer by a CVD method.
