摘要:
A magnetic sensor element using highly-oriented diamond film comprises a magnetic detecting part, at least a pair of main current electrodes for flowing a main current and generating the Hall electromotive force at the magnetic detecting part, and detection electrodes for detecting said Hall electromotive force. Said magnetic detecting part is formed of a highly-oriented diamond film grown by chemical vapor deposition, at least 90% of which consists of either (100) or (111) crystal planes. Between the adjacent crystal planes, the differences {.DELTA..alpha., .DELTA..beta., .DELTA..gamma.} of the Euler angles {.alpha., .beta., .gamma.} which represent the orientation of the crystal planes, satisfy the following relations simultaneously: .vertline..DELTA..alpha..vertline..ltoreq.10.degree., .vertline..DELTA..beta..vertline..ltoreq.10.degree. and .vertline..DELTA..gamma..vertline..ltoreq.10 .degree.. The magnetic sensor element using highly-oriented diamond film has a high heat stability and sufficiently high level of magnetic field sensitivity to be used practically, enabling to expand the surface area and to increase the integration of the element and to measure magnetic field over a wide area and a large space.
摘要:
A semiconductor device for providing stable operation over a relatively wide temperature range includes a wide bandgap semiconductor active region having an intentional dopant of a first conductivity type and an unintentional impurity of a second conductivity type which together produce a free carrier concentration at room temperature. The concentration of the intentional dopant in the active region is preferably less than 1.times.10.sup.16 cm.sup.-3 and the concentration of the unintentional impurity is less than 0.1 times the intentional dopant concentration so that the intentional dopant concentration will be less than 1000 times the free carrier concentration at room temperature. The intentional dopant concentration supplies substantially all the majority free carriers in the active region. The wide bandgap semiconductor active region is preferably diamond, IV-IV carbides, III-V nitrides and phosphides and II-VI selenides, tellurides, oxides and sulfides. By lightly doping the active region to a level below 1.times.10.sup.16 cm.sup.-3, relatively uniform device characteristics can be achieved over a wide temperature range extending from room temperature to 1000 K and above.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a heat dissipating substrate with a highly-oriented diamond film of a low crystal inclination and a low density grain boundaries and having a significantly high thermal conductivity. At least 90% of the surface area of the highly-oriented diamond film is covered with either (100) or (111) crystal planes, and the differences {.DELTA..alpha., .DELTA..beta., .DELTA..gamma.} of the Euler angles, which represent the orientations of the crystals, between adjacent (100) or (111) crystal planes, simultaneously satisfies the following relationship: .vertline..DELTA..alpha..vertline..ltoreq.5.degree., .vertline..DELTA..beta..vertline..ltoreq.5.degree., and .vertline..DELTA..gamma..vertline..ltoreq.5.degree.. In addition, this highly-oriented diamond film can be grown on a non-diamond substrates, and therefore the diamond film with a large surface area can be obtained. Thus, the present invention provides the heat dissipating substrate with an excellent thermal conductivity at low cost.
