摘要:
A wafer hanger has a rod member and a supporting member. The rod member is inserted into respective notches formed in semiconductor wafers, and then placed on the supporting member. The wafer hanger holding the wafers is put into a furnace for heat treatment of the wafers. Since the wafers are hung from the rod member, plastic deformation due to the gravity of the wafers is not caused in the wafers.

A side lifting boat and a tool assembly is disclosed. The tool is detachably engageable to selectively lift a boat. Both boat and tool are anti-rotationally engageable by the tool's upper and lower projections at its forward end fitting into a correspondingly shaped space defined between the outer (non-wafer-carrying) surface on the side of the boat. The boat's corresponding space permits the lifting tool to be moved into the space and into position between two fulcrum points that stabilize the boat/tool assembly from anything other than a small relative angular rotation.

A quartz boat is formed with a plurality of spaced, parallel rods having slots for supporting a series of semi-conductor wafers in a generally edgewise, spaced, parallel position. The slots continue to the ends of the rods, and the cross members supporting the rods are spaced inwardly from the rod ends, such that a series of boats may be arranged with the rods in end-to-end relation and the wafer space between adjacent boats is the same as the wafer space in the middle of a boat. The boat is also provided with a pair of tubes parallel to the rods for receiving a pickup fork.

A substrate cassette having a conventional form, an open container having an upper entrance and a narrow lower opening formed by two side panels and two end panels. A preferred embodiment includes a train of substrate alignment channels on the inner surfaces of the two side panels, each channel is U shaped and having planar surface with a left surface, a right surface, and a bottom surface. An arcuate curbing member disposed on a left surface in each of the substrate alignment channels. The arcuate curbing member includes a top end with a thinner sloped profile facing the upper open entrance of the cassette allowing a substrate to slide through and under a stepped lower end.

The present invention is designed to provide an annealing method for silicon single crystal wafers, which makes it possible to increase the number of silicon single crystal wafers processed during a single annealing process under a variety of annealing performed on silicon single crystal wafers, such as oxygen outer diffusion annealing for forming a DZ layer, annealing that generates and controls BMD for providing IG functions, and annealing that endeavors to improve and enhance GOI characteristics by eliminating wafer surface layer COP, and internal grown-in defects, and also enables the suppression of dislocation and slip in elevated temperature annealing environments. It calls for annealing to be performed by stacking up around 10 wafers, treating this group as a unit, placing this group, either horizontally or slightly inclined at an angle of roughly 0.5.about.5.degree., into a boat, which makes contact with and supports the periphery of the wafers at a plurality of locations, and then stacking up a plurality of these groups of wafers into numerous stacks inside the boat. As indicated in the embodiments, this method enables a variety of annealing to be applied to silicon single crystal wafers, making it possible to prevent dislocation and slip, and to provide the same annealing effect uniformly to all wafers.

A rack for supporting wafers has a pair of parallel struts with kerfs therealong for supporting the wafers. A dummy wafer is attached to the struts near each end of the struts to connect the struts structurally as the rack and serve as rack-handling handles. The dummy wafers are parallel to the adjacent kerfs and thus the wafers therein and dimensioned similarly to the wafers for providing favorable gas and heat distribution when a wafer loaded rack is placed in a furnace. This adapts the rack for diffusion treatment of semiconductor wafers.

A rack for use in carrying recorded discs through a cleaning operation includes a substantially C-shaped rod having a hook at its top end and three sets of spaced posts extending from the sides of a circular bottom portion. A separate plastic spindle is mounted on each of the posts with each spindle having a plurality of spaced annular grooves in its outer surface. The recorded discs are adapted to be set in the grooves in the spindles to support the discs on the rack.
摘要:
A process for the preparation of di- or tri-substituted aluminum salts of carboxyl group-containing, pharmaceutically effective compounds which comprises reacting up to three types of carboxyl group-containing, pharmaceutically effective compounds with an organic aluminum compound expressed by the following formula; ##EQU1## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be the same or different, stand for an aliphatic, alicyclic or aromatic hydrocarbon residue having up to 10 carbon atoms, and R.sub.3 stands for a hydrocarbon residue as defined with respect to R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be the same as, or different from, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, or a hydrocarbyloxy group of the formula OR.sub.4 in which R.sub.4 is an aliphatic, alicyclic or aromatic hydrocarbon residue having up to 10 carbon atoms,and a novel di- or tri-substituted aluminum salts of carboxyl group-containing, pharmaceutically effective compounds.
