摘要:
An apparatus for treating solid surface using a thermally excited molecular beam according to the present invention is capable of completely preventing flying of contaminant caused by a heating source to a sample. To achieve this, in the present invention, the heating source for exciting the molecules is hermetically separated from the sample. Alternatively, a container where the heating source is housed and a container where the sample is accommodated are separated such that a conductance between the two containers is sufficiently small. In this way, chemical reactions between the molecular beam of the reactive gas which is highly reactive and the heating source heated to high temperatures can be eliminated, and flying of the contaminant to the sample can thus be greatly reduced. As a result, flying of the contaminating substances caused by the heating source to the sample can be prevented, and reduction in the surface treating rate of the sample, caused by the contaminant, can be prevented.

A method may be used to dry etch a sample including a plurality of regions different from each other in the photo-absorption of a light having a specified wavelength using an etching gas plasma. The method is capable of selectively etching the desired material from a plurality of materials having different types of band gap energies or from a plurality of materials having different band gap energies. The method includes a step of irradiating a light having the specified wavelength on the sample for reducing an etching rate of a region having a large photo-absorption coefficient to the light, thereby selectively etching a region having a small photo-absorption coefficient to the light.

摘要:
A method for comparing DNA base sequences by comparing similarities between two amino acid sequences translated from two DNA base sequences, respectively, includes (1) a step of dividing each of the first DNA base sequence and the second DNA base sequence into groups of successive three nucleotides each, translating each of these groups of nucleotides into an amino acid, and thereby obtaining a first amino acid sequence and a second amino acid sequence, and (2) a step of determining similarities between each amino acid of the first translated amino acid sequence and each amino acid of the second translated amino acid sequence in view of nucleotide insertions or deletions in the first and second DNA base sequence and amino acid insertions or deletions in the first and second translated amino acid sequence. The method is repeated by shifting the base sequences one base at a time.
