摘要:
The specification describes a photolithography process using multiple exposures to form z-dimension patterns. Multiple exposures at different thickness levels are made using photomasks aligned with a latent image of alignment marks formed during the first exposure. The latent image is visible to the alignment system of commercial steppers.
摘要:
A method of fabricating a III-V heterostructure semiconductor device. The method includes the steps of forming at least one conductive post overlying a semiconductor region to form a structure, encapsulating the structure and the conductive post to form a planarized cured passivation layer, and exposing the conductive post through the planarized cured passivation layer to form the semiconductor device.

The specification describes a metal contact material optimized for diffused contacts to the buried emitter-base junction in DHBT devices. The metal contact material is a multilayer structure of Pd--Pt--Au which gives the required critical diffusion properties for low resistance contacts to the buried base layer without shorting to the collector layer.

摘要:
The specification describes a lithographic technique in which alignment marks are defined in a first semiconductor layer and the alignment marks are then covered with a protective SiO2 layer. After subsequent semiconductor layer growth steps, which selectively deposit on the former semiconductor layer but not on the protective layer, the alignment marks remain undistorted and visible to the exposure tool for subsequent processing.
摘要:
The specification describes a technique for repairing wafer fractures that occur during wafer fabrication. The fractured pieces are joined edge-to-edge at the fracture line and bonded with epoxy adhesive. The method succeeds because the dimensions of the fracture line after bonding is within the reregistration tolerance of commercial step-and-repeat cameras and the reregistration capability of the camera allows normal exposure of sites that do not intersect the fracture line.

The specification describes a trilevel resist technique for defining metallization patterns by lift-off. The trilevel resist comprises two standard photoresist levels separated by a thin silicon oxide layer with approximate composition SiO.sub.2.
