Publication number: 20070293056Abstract: The present invention intends to provide a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device in which source/drain extension regions having a uniform depth are created with high reproducibility. This objective is achieved by the following method: A gate electrode 24 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 21 via a gate insulator 23. The portion of the semiconductor substrate 21 other than the gate electrode 24 is irradiated with an ultra-short pulsed laser light having a pulse width within a range from 10 to 1000 femtoseconds in order to create an amorphous layer 26a. Then, recesses 27 are created in the semiconductor substrate 21 by selectively etching the amorphous layer 26a. The recesses 27 are filled with semiconductor layers 28 whose impurity concentration is higher than that of the semiconductor substrate 21, and the source/drain extension regions 31 are created there.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2005Publication date: December 20, 2007Applicant: EMD CORPORATIONInventors: Yuichi Setsuhara, Masaki Hashida, Masayuki Fujita

Patent number: 7177779Abstract: An azimuth measuring device capable of calibrating a magnetic sensor without putting load on a user is provided. When a point having amplified output values Sx, Sy, Sz after a sensitivity correction as x, y, z components is arranged on an xyz coordinate system, an offset information calculation section 8 calculates the center coordinates of such a sphere whose surface is located in the vicinity of each point and calculates an x component of the center coordinates of this sphere as a current offset Cx of an x-axis Hall element HEx, a y component of the center coordinates of this sphere as a current offset Cy of a y-axis Hall element HEy and a z component of the center coordinates of this sphere as a current offset Cz of a z-axis Hall element HEz. It is thereby possible to calibrate the magnetic sensor without putting load on the user.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2003Date of Patent: February 13, 2007Assignee: Asahi Kasei EMD CorporationInventors: Koichi Hikida, Masaya Yamashita

Patent number: 7129691Abstract: A low-cost, current sensor suitable for mass production and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The current sensor is small with high sensitivity and can be packaged in a standard assembly line which is normally used when an integrated circuit is manufactured. Further, it is possible to obtain a sufficient shielding effect against a disturbance flux without degrading the detecting sensitivity of a flux. A first magnetic material 50 is bonded to the lower part of a current conductor 22C. The first magnetic material 50 has the function of converging and amplifying a flux 3 generated by the current to be measured. A second magnetic material 51 is bonded above a magnetic sensor chip 20. The second magnetic material 51 has a shielding function against a disturbance flux entering from the outside.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2002Date of Patent: October 31, 2006Assignees: Sentron AG, Asahi Kasei EMD CorporationInventors: Koji Shibahara, Radivoje Popovic, Yo Yamagata, Robert Racz
