摘要:
In a semiconductor device, the degree of flatness of 0.3 nm or less in terms of a peak-to-valley (P-V) value is realized by rinsing a silicon surface with hydrogen-added ultrapure water in a light-screened state and in a nitrogen atmosphere and a contact resistance of 10−11 Ωcm2 or less is realized by setting a work function difference of 0.2 eV or less between an electrode and the silicon. Thus, the semiconductor device can operate on a frequency of 10 GHz or higher.

Surface treatment is performed with a liquid, while shielding a semiconductor surface from light. When the method is employed for surface treatment in wet processes such as cleaning, etching and development of the semiconductor surface, increase of surface microroughness can be reduced. Thus, electrical characteristics and yield of the semiconductor device are improved.

Abstract A shaft seal structure (17) is provided around an outer circumferential surface of the bearing member (16M, 16FM) located on the cylinder inside of each of the screw rotors (13M, 13FM). The shaft seal structure (17) forms a static pressure seal. A seal gas is introduced between the outer circumferential surfaces of the bearing members (16M, 16FM) and the inner circumferential surfaces (7) of the rotor cylinders of the screw rotors (13M, 13FM) through the bearing members (16M, 16FM).

A MIS transistor, formed on a semiconductor substrate, assumed to comprise a semiconductor substrate (702, 910) comprising a projecting part (704, 910B) with at least two different crystal planes on the surface on a principal plane, a gate insulator (708, 920B) for covering at least a part of each of said at least two different crystal planes constituting the surface of the projecting part, a gate electrode (706, 930B), comprised on each of said at least two different crystal planes constituting the surface of the projecting part, which sandwiches the gate insulator with the said at least two different planes, and a single conductivity type diffusion region (710a, 710b, 910c, 910d) formed in the projecting part facing each of said at least two different crystal planes and individually formed on both sides of the gate electrode. Such a configuration allows control over increase in the element area and increase of channel width.
摘要:
During etching of a contact hole, not only the energy of ion irradiation but also the gas composition are altered to change the etching from a high-rate etching to a low-rate etching, thereby reducing the damage. In the low-rate etching where the gas composition is also altered, a firm fluorocarbon film is formed on the bottom of the contact hole, and the etching can be carried out while protecting the silicon surface. Consequently, inactivation of the impurities doped in the silicon surface can be prevented.

Laser light in a pattern reflected by a two-dimensional array micromirror 106 that is controlled on the basis of mask data of a mask pattern data output device 107 forms an enlarged pattern 110. This enlarged pattern is projected in a reduced manner onto a mask substrate 109 through a reduction-projection optical system 102, thereby forming a lithography pattern 111. Since a large number of patterns are written in an instant by the two-dimensional array micromirror 106, a time required for lithography the entire mask pattern is extremely shortened as compared with a conventional one. As a result, the mask cost can be largely reduced.

A plasma device which is provided with a container, a gas supply system, and an exhaust system. The container is composed of a first dielectric plate made of a material capable of transmitting microwaves. An antenna for radiating microwaves is located on the outside of the container, and an electrode for holding an object to be treated is located inside the container. The microwave radiating surface of the antenna and the surface of the object to be treated with plasma are positioned in parallel and opposite to each other. A wall section of the container other than that constituting the first dielectric plate is composed of a member of a material having electrical conductivity higher than that of aluminum, or the internal surface of the wall section is covered with the member. The thickness (d) of the member is larger that (2/μ0σ)1/2, where σ, μ0 and ω respectively represent the electrical conductivity of the member, the permeability of vacuum and the angular frequency of the microwaves radiated from the antenna.
