摘要:
In a high-performance semiconductor integrated circuit, the standby current is reduced by preventing current leakage in a semiconductor integrated circuit device, for example, the memory cell of an SRAM. A gate electrode G is formed on semiconductor substrate 1 and n+-type semiconductor regions 17 (source/drain regions) are formed in the semiconductor substrate on both sides of this gate electrode. Within the same apparatus and under near-vacuum conditions, a depth of 2.5 nm or less is etched away from the surfaces of the source/drain regions and gate electrode, a film of Co is then formed on the source/drain regions, and thermal processing is applied to form CoSi2 layer 19a. As a result, current leakage in the memory cell can be prevented and this method can be applied to semiconductor integrated circuit devices that have low current consumption or are battery-driven.

A semiconductor device producing method and a semiconductor device producing system employs a processing apparatus provided with a dust particle detecting apparatus. The dust particle detecting apparatus measures the condition of adhesion of dust particles adhering to a work at least before or after processing the work, manages the condition of incremental adhesion of dust particles to the work resulting from processing for each lot of works or for each work on the basis of the measured condition of adhesion of dust particles measured before or after processing the work, and determines the time when the processing apparatus is to be cleaned or the cycle of cleaning the processing apparatus on the basis of the managed condition of adhesion of dust particles.

A defect detected by a wafer inspection tool is reliably captured by a defect review tool. A defect review condition in the defect review tool is varied depending on defect attributes provided by the wafer inspection tool so as to optimize the review process. For example, review magnification is varied depending on the size of the defect, or the frame addition number is varied depending on the maximum gray level difference.

In related art, when a location to be analyzed is selected from inspection data, a relatively highly critical defect among entire defects is not selected as a defect to be analyzed. Further, when a mark is placed in a fixed position associated with a defect, the mark affects the defect itself depending on the shape and size of the defect, which is problematic in the following analysis made in an analysis apparatus. Moreover, in the case of a wafer with no pattern, a defect invisible to a SEM cannot be marked.To select a highly critical defect as a defect to be analyzed, an automatic classification result from a review SEM is used to select a defect to be analyzed. Further, to avoid an effect on a defect itself, a mark is placed in a position associated with the defect with the distance from the defect to the marking position changed on a defect basis. To this end, the shape and size of a defect is recognized based on ADR or ADC, and a mark is placed in a position set apart from the defect by a distance in consideration of a range to be affected by the mark. Further, in the case of a defect that is not observable with a SEM, a mark is placed by using an observation result from an optical microscope.

The objective is to improve a classification standard. Classification standard data, in which is registered image data information that is the standard when image data is classified, and classification data, in which is registered image data information that is the result when newly input image data is classified using the classification standard data, are stored in a storage unit. An image classification device is characterized in that when any image data information of the image data that is registered in the classification data is selected by means of an input unit, and an instruction to additionally register the selected image data information in the classification standard data is input by means of the input unit, the selected image data information is additionally registered in the classification standard data.

摘要:
A thermoplastic polymer composition containing a protease inhibiting substance and medical devices entirely or partly made of the thermoplastic polymer composition.Various medical devices having a good compatibility with blood can be made easily by melt-molding the thermoplastic polymer composition. The anti-thrombotic property of the medical devices lasts for a longer time because the protease inhibiting substance exudes out to the surface if rubbed off.
