  • Patent number: 5970368
    Abstract: There is disclosed a method for manufacturing a polycrystal semiconductor film comprising the steps of applying a high energy beam to a surface of a semiconductor film comprising an amorphous or a polycrystal semiconductor provided on a surface of a substrate to melt only the semiconductor film, and solidifying the film via a solid and liquid coexisting state to form a semiconductor film comprising a polycrystal semiconductor having a large grain diameter, by heating a liquid part using a difference in an electric resistance in the liquid and solid coexisting state to heat only the liquid part, and by extending the solidification time until the completion of solidifying of the molten liquid crystal film. Furthermore, as the base film of the semiconductor film, a material having a melting point of 1600.degree. C. and a thermal conductivity of 0.01 cal/cm.s..degree. C.

  • Patent number: 5682041
    Abstract: An electronic part is disclosed which is furnished with an artificial super lattice obtained by alternately superposing a substance of good conductivity formed of a compound between one element selected from among the elements belonging to the transition elements of Groups 3A to 6A and the rare earth elements and an element selected from among boron, carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, selenium, and tellurium or a compound between oxygen and a transition metal element selected from among the elements of Group 7A and Group 8 and an insulating substance formed of a compound between a simple metal element selected from among the elements belonging to Group 1A, Group 2A, and Groups 1B to 4B and an element selected from among carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, selenium, tellurium, and halogen elements in thicknesses fit for obtaining a quantum size effect.
