    摘要: A semiconductor substrate has a power region and a control region. The control region is located in the center portion of the substrate, and the power region surrounds the control region and is separated therefrom. A vertical type, MOS transistor, i.e., an active semiconductor element, is formed on the power region. An insulation film is formed on part of the control region. A polycrystalline silicon diode, which functions as a heat-sensitive element, is formed on the insulation film. A control section comprising a lateral type, MOS transistor is also formed on the control region. The lateral type, MOS transistor is connected to receive a signal form the polycrystalline silicon diode. Further, a polycrystalline silicon resistor, which determines a circuit constant, is formed on the insulation film. The MOS transistor protects the active semiconductor element in response to a signal supplied from the heat-sensitive element showing that the temperature of the semiconductor substrate has risen above a predetermined value. For example, the active semiconductor element may be disabled until the detected temperature drops below a predetermined value.

    摘要: A structure and manufacturing method for a thin film semiconductor device consisting of a single diode or a plurality of diodes connected in series, the device being formed of at least one pair of mutually adjacent P-type (23a) and N-type (23b) regions formed in a layer of polycrystalline silicon (23) deposited on an insulating film (22) upon a substrate (21), to thereby define at least one PN junction. Each of the p-type regions and N-type regions is shaped as a rectangle, with opposite ends of each PN junction formed between these regions being respectively defined by two opposing sides of the polycrystalline silicon layer. Since each of the PN junctions is substantially rectilinear, an even distribution of current flow through each PN junction is attained, whereby a high resistance to destruction and an extremely stable value of reverse bias breakdown voltage are achieved.

    摘要: A method for forming electrodes with strong adhesion strength for a semiconductor device is provided. The adhesion strength between a Si substrate and a Ti film is made higher than the pulling stress of a Ni film. Before an electrode is formed using sputtering process, the natural oxide film grown on a semiconductor substrate is removed using an Ar reverse sputtering while the top surface of the silicon substrate is converted to an amorphous through a bombardment and introduction of Ar. While Ti is deposited, a Si-Ti amorphous layer is formed in the Si/Ti interface. In this case, the amount of Ar atoms is controlled less than 4.0.times.10.sup.14 atoms/cm.sup.2. The Ar amount also can be controlled by adjusting the conditions such as the output or cathodic voltage of Ar reverse sputtering and decreasing the absolute value of Ar in the amorphous Si layer. Also the Ar amount can be controlled by diffusing Ar atoms into the substrate at more than about 300.degree. C. during Ti film deposition to diverse the Ar distribution. As a result argon atoms which concentrates at the interface do not affect with respect to the Si-Ti amorphous layer, whereby the bonding strength of the amorphous layer is maintained. Therefore, the strong adhesion strength between Si and Ti can provide a sufficient durability against the film stress of the Ni film.

    摘要翻译: 提供了一种用于形成用于半导体器件的具有强粘合强度的电极的方法。 使Si衬底和Ti膜之间的粘合强度高于Ni膜的拉伸应力。 在使用溅射法形成电极之前,使用Ar反溅射除去在半导体衬底上生长的天然氧化物膜,同时通过轰击和引入Ar将硅衬底的顶表面转化为无定形。 当沉积Ti时,在Si / Ti界面中形成Si-Ti非晶层。 在这种情况下,Ar原子的量控制在4.0×1014原子/ cm2以下。 Ar量也可以通过调节Ar逆溅射的输出或阴极电压等条件来降低非晶硅层中的绝对值Ar来控制。 此外,Ar量可以通过在Ti膜沉积期间将Ar原子扩散到基底中超过约300℃来控制,以使Ar分布变得多样化。 结果,在界面处浓缩的氩原子相对于Si-Ti非晶层不会受到影响,由此保持非晶层的结合强度。 因此,Si和Ti之间的强粘合强度可以提供足够的抗Ni膜的膜应力的耐久性。
