Patent number: 6008143Abstract: A metal organic chemical vapor deposition apparatus comprising a source ampule, a liquid micro-pump, a vaporizer equipped with a solvent supply means, and a reactor. A reactant dissolved in a solvent in the source ampule is transferred to the vaporizer by the liquid micro-pump. A sufficient amount of the solvent is additionally fed to the vaporizer by the solvent supply means, concurrently with the transfer, and vaporized along with the reactants. After being vaporized in the vaporizer, the reactant is injected to the reactor by carrier gas and deposited on a semiconductor substrate to form a high dielectric thin film. By virtue of the additional supplied solvent, the recondensation of the reactant in the vaporizer, which is attributed to the separation of the solvent from the reactant, can be prevented in the vaporizer and in the transfer line between the vaporizer and the reactor.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 1997Date of Patent: December 28, 1999Assignee: Hyundai Electronics Industries Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yong Sik Yu, Yong Ku Baek, Young Jin Park, Jong Choul Kim

Patent number: 5926427Abstract: A power line noise prevention circuit for a semiconductor memory device which can suppress noises on supply and ground voltage lines with no conventional degradation in operation speed when internal circuits consuming a large current amount are sequentially operated. When a plurality of data output buffers output high data at the same time, the power line noise prevention circuit applies a high voltage to the supply voltage line for the operation time to prevent a supply voltage from being reduced in level. To the contrary, when a plurality of data output buffers output low data at the same time, the power line noise prevention circuit applies a substrate voltage to the ground voltage line for the operation time to prevent a ground voltage from being increased in level.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 1997Date of Patent: July 20, 1999Assignee: Hyundai Electronics Industries Co., Ltd.Inventor: Yong Ki Kim
