An electrode and/or wiring having a polycide structure is formed with voids V therein at the preparing stage as shown in FIG. 3. If the scale down and lowering of resistance of the electrode and/or wiring further proceed in future, the influence of the voids becomes obvious to lower yields. According to the present invention, a method for depositing a tungsten silicide film is characterized in that when a tungsten silicide layer is formed on a polysilicon layer, a phosphorus atom containing gas is added to a reactive gas at least in the initial stage that the tungsten silicide layer is formed, and the amount of the added phosphorus atom containing gas is set to be in the range of from 0.2 vol. % to 0.45 vol. %.

A heat treatment method for heat treating a thin film is a method for heat treating the thin film having a metallic silicide layer, comprising a heating step, a temperature keeping step and a cooling step. Among these steps, the thin film is heated in an atmosphere of gas which is oxidizing gas or includes oxidizing gas at least in the heating step. An oxide film is formed on the thin film in the heating step to prevent the phosphorous atoms from escaping.

A method of forming a tungsten film, capable of restricting voids and volcanoes as large as adversely affecting characteristics despite the small diameter of a buried hole, and providing good burying characteristics. When forming a tungsten film on the surface of an object of treating (W) in a vacuumizing-enabled treating vessel (22), a reduction gas supplying process 70 and a tungsten gas supplying process 72 for supplying a tungsten-containing gas are alternately repeated with a purge process 74, for supplying an inert gas while vacuumizing, intervened therebetween to thereby form an initial tungsten film 76. Therefore, an initial tungsten film can be formed as a nucleation layer high in film thickness uniformity; and, accordingly, when main tungsten films are subsequently deposited, it is possible to restrict voids and volcanoes as large as adversely affecting characteristics despite the small diameter of a buried hole, and provide good burying characteristics.

The present invention relates to a semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor substrate (1), a gate insulator formed on this substrate, such as a gate oxide film (2), and a gate electrode (3) formed on the insulator. The gate electrode (3) has a metallic compound film (3a). This metallic compound film (3a) is formed by CVD using a material containing a metal carbonyl, e.g., W(CO)6 gas, and at least one of a Si-containing gas and a N-containing gas. The work function of the metallic compound film (3a) thus formed is controllable by the Si and/or N content of the film.

A first parameter correlated with a degree of a variation in the output from the air-fuel ratio sensor is calculated. A possible range of a second parameter representing a degree of a variation in air-fuel ratio among the cylinders is determined based on the first parameter. The first parameter is calculated with an air-fuel ratio of a predetermined cylinder forcibly changed. A difference between the unchanged first parameter and the forcibly changed first parameter is determined. A first characteristic representing a relation between the second parameter and the difference is determined based on the possible range of the second parameter and the difference. One of the determination value and the first parameter calculated before the forced change is corrected based on inclination of the determined first characteristic.

The game control device may include a storage unit, a first match-up executing unit, a character ability updating unit, and a second match-up executing unit. The storage unit stores an ability value of each player character. The first match-up executing unit executes a first match-up between two player characters in response to input of a communication terminal, and to determine a result of the first match-up based on the stored ability value of each player character. The character ability updating unit updates, based on the result of the first match-up, the ability values of the two player characters, and causes the storage unit to store the updated ability values. The second match-up executing unit executes a second match-up between player characters independently from the first match-up without input of the communication terminal, and determines a result of the second match-up based on the stored ability value of each player character.

Embodiments of the invention provide an actuator head suspension assembly having an efficient voice coil. In one embodiment, a voice coil is formed in a circular or any other shape than the conventional sectorial shape to increase the efficiency of the voice coil and diminish oscillation and noise of an actuator head suspension assembly. The voice coil shape is selected such that the proportion of an out-of-plane force becomes smaller than that in the conventional sectorial voice coil and the proportion contributing as weight to the oscillation energy also becomes smaller.

A first parameter correlated with a degree of fluctuation of output from an air-fuel ratio sensor is calculated, and whether or not the calculated first parameter has a value between a predetermined primary determination upper-limit value α1H and a primary determination lower-limit value is determined. Such forced active control as reduces an air-fuel ratio shift in one of the cylinders which is subjected to a most significant air-fuel ratio shift is performed when the calculated first parameter is determined to have a value between the predetermined primary determination upper-limit value and the primary determination lower-limit value. A first parameter is calculated while the forced active control is in execution. The calculated first parameter is compared with a predetermined secondary determination value to determine whether or not variation abnormality is present.
