In an embodiment of the present invention, a semiconductor layer having regions into which a p-type impurity, an n-type impurity and a (p+n) impurity are respectively introduced is formed as a surface layer by being heat-treated. An impurity segregation layer on these regions is removed, and a film of a metallic material is thereafter formed on the regions and is heat-treated, thereby forming a silicide film on the semiconductor layer. In another embodiment, an impurity is introduced into the impurity segregation layer, and a film of a metallic material is thereafter formed on the impurity segregation layer and is heat-treated to form a silicide film.

A method for optimizing a structure of an industrial product includes selecting control factors from among manufacturing parameters affecting a target characteristic, which is scheduled to be manufactured by a sequence of manufacturing processes; setting levels to the respective control factors; selecting a reference characteristic having a trade-off relation with the target characteristic from among characteristics of the structure; setting a reference value to the reference characteristic; selecting a prior adjustment factor affecting the reference characteristic; creating conditions for experiments assigning combinations of the levels to the respective control factors; determining an adjustment value of the prior adjustment factor so that each of characteristic values of the reference characteristic obtained by the experiments conforms substantially to the reference value; and determining experimental characteristic values of the target characteristic using the adjustment value.
摘要:
A drive unit is described for switching circuit breakers on and off, in particular disconnecting switches and/or grounding switches of medium-voltage switchgear. The drive unit includes a reversible d.c. motor and a switching device containing two separately drivable and interlocked reversing switches, one assigned to each direction of rotation of the d.c. motor, their contacts performing the current reversal on the windings of the d.c. motor as required to reverse the direction of rotation. The drive unit further includes power contactors whose contacts have the required switching capacity for load switching. The all-or-nothing relays and safety switches are implemented by uniform low-power relays representing the direction of rotation, each having at least two electrically isolated relay contacts connected in parallel and also having an equalizing capacitor connected in parallel to each. Such drive units are used in connection with switchgear for power transmission and distribution.
