Abstract:
A technique disclosed herein relates to a manufacturing method for a semiconductor substrate having the bonded interface with high bonding strength without forming an oxide layer at the bonded interface also for the substrate having surface that is hardly planarized. The manufacturing method for the semiconductor substrate may include an amorphous layer formation process in which a first amorphous layer is formed by modifying a surface of a support substrate and a second amorphous layer is formed by modifying a surface of a single-crystalline layer of a semiconductor. The manufacturing method may include a contact process in which the first amorphous layer and the second amorphous layer are contacted with each other. The manufacturing method may include a heat treatment process in which the support substrate and single-crystalline layer are heat-treated with the first amorphous layer and the second amorphous layer being in contact with each other.
Abstract:
A semiconductor light emitting element with a design wavelength of λ, comprising a photonic crystal periodic structure having two structures with different refractive indices at each of one or more interfaces between layers that form the light emitting element. The period a and the radius R that are parameters of each of the one or more periodic structures and the design wavelength λ satisfy Bragg conditions. The ratio (R/a) between the period a and the radius R is a value determined so that a predetermined photonic band gap (PBG) for TE light becomes maximum for each periodic structure. The parameters of each periodic structure are determined so that light extraction efficiency of the entire semiconductor light emitting element with respect to light with the wavelength λ becomes maximum as a result of conducting a simulation analysis with a FDTD method using as variables the depth h of the periodic structure that is of greater than or equal to 0.5a and the period a and the radius R that are determined for each order m of the Bragg conditions.

Abstract:
High precision MEMESs can be manufactured in a large amount without requiring a vacuum process or a lithography process. A film is aligned with a die so as to contact with each other. The film has a functional layer and a releasing layer printed thereon. The die is configured to mold a structure which comprises a functional layer retention part retaining the functional layer and a frame supporting the functional layer retention part. The resin filled between the die and the film is cured. Then, the film is separated from the die so that the functional layer is released from the releasing layer and transferred on the resin cured in the die, thereby the structure is formed.
