The present invention is a method of fabricating a self-peeling nickel foil from a silicon wafer. The method includes forming a template of silicon by electrochemically etching a portion of the Si wafer to create a porous Si portion with pores of a desired depth. Then electrolessly plating nickel into the template, wherein the porous silicon portion is converted into a porous nickel portion and continuing the electroless plating until the internal tensile stress at an interface of the porous nickel portion and the silicon wafer is great enough to self-peel the porous nickel portion from the silicon wafer creating a nickel foil.

Dopant activation in heavily boron doped p.sup.+ --Si is achieved by applying electric current of high density. The p.sup.+ --Si was implanted by a 40 KeV BF.sup.2+ at an ion intensity 5.multidot.10.sup.15 ions per cm.sup.2 and annealed at 900.degree. C. for 30 minutes to obtain a partial boron activation according to conventional processing steps. To obtain additional activation and higher conductivity, current was gradually applied according to the invention to a current density of approximately 5.times.10.sup.6 A/cm.sup.2 was realized. The resistance of the p.sup.+ --Si gradually increases and then decreases with a precipitous drop at a threshold current. The resistance was reduced by factor of 5 to 18 times and was irreversible if an activation current threshold was reached or exceeded. The high-current-density-dopant activation occurs at room temperature.

An epitaxial conductor and a method for forming buried conductor patterns is described incorporating a layer of single crystalline silicon, a pattern formed therein such as a trench, a layer of metal silicide epitaxial formed on the bottom surface of the pattern or trench, a layer of silicon epitaxially formed thereover, and a layer of metal silicide epitaxially formed over the silicon layer. The invention overcomes the problem of twinning defects in the top surface of epitaxial silicide layers.

Methods of fabricating highly conductive regions in semiconductor substrates for radio frequency applications are used to fabricate two structures: (1) a first structure includes porous Si (silicon) regions extending throughout the thickness of an Si substrate that allows for the subsequent formation of metallized posts and metallized moats in the porous regions; and (2) a second structure includes staggered deep V-grooves or trenches etched into an Si substrate, or some other semiconductor substrate, from the front and/or the back of the substrate, wherein these V-grooves and trenches are filled or coated with metal to form the metallized moats.

An improved dielectric material having pores formed therein and a method for forming the material are disclosed. The material is formed of a polymer. Pores within the polymer are formed by forming solid organic particles within the polymer and eventually vaporizing the particles to form pores within the polymer.

In the practice of this disclosure, rare earth disilicide low Schottky barriers (.ltorsim.0.4 eV) are used as low resistance contacts to n-Si. Further, high resistance contacts to p-Si (Schottky barrier of .gtorsim.0.7 eV) are also available by practice of this disclosure. A method is disclosed for forming contemporaneously high (.gtorsim.0.8 eV) and low (.ltorsim.0.4 eV) energy Schottky barriers on an n-doped silicon substrate. Illustratively, the high energy Schottky barrier is formed by reacting platinum or iridium with silicon; the low energy Schottky barrier is formed by reacting a rare earth with silicon to form a disilicide. Illustratively, a double layer of Pt/on W is an effective diffusion barrier on Gd and prevents the Gd from oxidation.

The present invention relates to a specimen box for an electron microscope, which comprises a first substrate, a second substrate, and a metal adhesion layer. The first substrate has a first surface, a second surface, a first concave, and one or more first through holes, wherein the first through hole penetrates through the first substrate. The second substrate has a third surface, a forth surface, and a second concave. Besides, the metal adhesion layer is disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate to form a space for a specimen placed therein. In addition, the specimen box of the present invention further comprises one or more plugs. When the plug is assembled into the first through hole to seal the specimen box, the in-situ observation can be accomplished by using an electron microscope.
