  • Patent number: 5876861
    Abstract: Disclosed is a nickel layer formed on a substrate by sputtering, in which nickel layer a percent ratio of an X-ray diffraction peak intensity of the (200) plane of the nickel layer to that of the (111) plane of the nickel layer is not less than 10%. This nickel layer has a reduced stress, and therefore, lessens a bending of a substrate. The nickel layer is formed by a process for sputtering nickel on a substrate, comprising supplying an argon gas into a vacuum chamber, adjusting a pressure of the argon gas in the vacuum chamber to a predetermined value, ionizing the argon gas, bombarding a target containing nickel with the ionized argon gas, to sputter nickel atoms, and depositing the sputtered nickel atoms onto the substrate, wherein the predetermined pressure of the argon gas is not lower than 12 mTorr.

  • Patent number: 5635764
    Abstract: On a rear surface of a semiconductor (10), a contact layer (11), a diffusion preventing layer (12) and a solder joint layer (13) are formed, and this solder joint layer (13) is connected to a mount base (15) by a Pb-Sn solder layer (14). The contact layer (11) is formed of a rare earth metal, its silicide or a composite thereof, the diffusion preventing layer (12) is formed of a ferrous metal, and the solder joint layer (13) is formed of a Ni-Au alloy. By forming the diffusion preventing layer (12) using the ferrous metal, a diffusion of tin in a solder is prevented and by the solder joint layer (13) of the Ni-Au alloy, an excellent solder joint property can be maintained to reduce the number of laminated layers. Further, as a surface treated layer of at least one joint member, the Ni-Au alloy is used and by heating the semiconductor substrate via a solder foil in a reducing atmosphere a high airtightness is obtained.

  • Patent number: 4812897
    Abstract: A semiconductor element mounted on a substrate is sealed with a silicone gel which has a complex modulus of elasticity such that breakage of solder bumps due to thermal fatique occurs preferentially by shear stress thereto due to a difference between thermal expansion coefficients of the semiconductor element and the substrate, not by tension thereto due to thermal expansion of the silicone gel between the semiconductor element and the substrate.

  • Patent number: 4225634
    Abstract: A gas composition detector, particularly an oxygen concentration detector includes a metal oxide an electrical resistance or an electromotive force of which is changed by oxygen ions which are conducted in accordance with a difference between an oxygen concentration of gas being examined and an oxygen concentration of a reference gas. A surface of the metal oxide is coated with a conductive metal electrode, and a metal which is the same as or different than the conductive metal penetrates into the metal oxide at the interface of the metal oxide and the conductive metal, whereby the tear-off of the electrode is prevented.
