摘要:
A semiconductor integrated circuit apparatus according to the present invention has a capacitor formed in such a manner that a ferroelectric thin film is formed after a MOS transistor has been formed on a substrate thereof, a ferroelectric thin film made of, for example, PbZrTiO.sub.3 or SrTiO.sub.3 or the like is formed into a columnar shape to form electrodes positioned in direct contact with the side wall portions of said columnar ferroelectric thin film and the top portion is removed. As a result, a fact that an oxide of each electrode, which deteriorates the relative permittivity, is formed on the interface between the electrode and the ferroelectric material is prevented, and a large capacity can be realized with respect to the area of the substrate because the ferroelectric thin film is formed into the columnar and elongated shape, resulting in that the capacitance of the capacitor is not reduced in which the electrodes and the oxide dielectric material having a high permittivity are, in series, connected to each other. The capacitor is formed into a DRAM or an FRAM memory cell so as to realize a semiconductor memory revealing a high degree of integration and a high processing speed.
摘要:
A plasma processing apparatus performs a sample processing and cleaning processing. The sample processing is carried out by generating a reaction gas plasma within a vacuum vessel of the apparatus using an electron cyclotron resonance excitation. The cleaning processing is carried out to clean the inner wall of the vacuum vessel by generating a cleaning gas plasma within the vacuum vessel. Generation of the cleaning gas plasma takes place by using either one of the following processes:(1) The plasma diameter during the cleaning processing is made larger than that during the sample processing. The end of the plasma during cleaning processing is made to reach the inside wall of the vacuum vessel.(2) The cleaning gas plasma is scanned within the vacuum vessel.

Use of Pb-free solder has become essential due to the environmental problem. A power module is formed by soldering substrates with large areas. It is known that in Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu which hardly creeps and deforms with respect to large deformation followed by warpage of the substrate, life is significantly shortened with respect to the temperature cycle test, and the conventional module structure is in the situation having difficulty in securing high reliability. Thus, the present invention has an object to select compositions from which increase in life can be expected at a low strain rate. In Sn solder, by doping In by 3 to 7% and Ag by 2 to 4.5%, the effect of delaying crack development at a low strain rate is found out, and as a representative composition stable at a high temperature, Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu-5In is selected. Further, for enhancement of reliability, a method for partially coating a solder end portion with a resin is shown.
摘要:
In a semiconductor device, such as a diode and thyristor, having at least one pn junction between a pair of main surfaces, a first main electrode formed on the surface of one of the main surfaces and a second main electrode formed on the surface of the other one of the main surfaces, a semiconductor lattice defect is formed such that its lattice defect density increases gradually in the direction from the first main electrode to the second main electrode. Since the distribution of the carrier density in the conduction state can be flattened, the reverse recovery charge can be reduced substantially without causing the ON-state voltage to increase.

摘要:
An elastic printed board is provided so that stress applied by the silicon gel is absorbed by the printed board. Further, the printed board is formed to be so narrow that the stress may be escaped. On the other hand, the wires on which a high voltage is applied are patterned on respective printed boards. This serves to prevent discharge through the surface of the same printed board served as current passage. This design makes it possible to hermetically close the power module, prevent intrusion of moisture or contamination as well as displacement, transformation and crack of the cover plate.
