Abstract: In an apparatus and a method of forming a photoresist pattern, a photoresist-coating section coats a substrate with a photoresist composition to form a photoresist film. A light is irradiated onto the photoresist film by using an exposure section, and a developing section develops the photoresist film. A residue-sensing section senses a residue of the developed photoresist film to generate information of the residue corresponding to the sensed residue. A residue-removing section sprays a solvent in a region of the residue corresponding to the information of the residue to dissolve the residue, and the residue-removing section absorbs the residue dissolved by the solvent. Therefore, the residue is effectively removed by spraying the solvent in the region of the residue and absorbing the residue dissolved by the solvent.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus uses focusing and collecting optics in combination with steering optics for efficient and speedy imaging of a target using an extended terahertz electro-magnetic range challenged by weak sources and low sensitivity of detection. This invention addresses efficient detection of this wave in combination with a speedy imaging speed. By proper location of optics to utilize angular conversion of the beam to a lateral scan, a rastering imaging apparatus is demonstrated without moving target or entire imaging system. A mirror-lens set is used to steer the terahertz (THz) beam along and (or) to collect the THz beam from each point of the target. The target is imaged with a much higher speed than when moving the target or the entire imaging system. A THz wave image can be taken at video frequency for practical usage of the apparatus in diverse application areas, where it has not been considered to be feasible.

Abstract: A field effect transistor having a T- or ?-shaped fine gate electrode of which a head portion is wider than a foot portion, and a method for manufacturing the field effect transistor, are provided. A void is formed between the head portion of the gate electrode and a semiconductor substrate using an insulating layer having a multi-layer structure with different etch rates. Since parasitic capacitance between the gate electrode and the semiconductor substrate is reduced by the void, the head portion of the gate electrode can be made large so that gate resistance can be reduced. In addition, since the height of the gate electrode can be adjusted by adjusting the thickness of the insulating layer, device performance as well as process uniformity and repeatability can be improved.
