Abstract: The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for prevention or treatment of a stress disease and depression, the pharmaceutical composition be safely useable without toxicity and side effects by using an extract of leaves of Vaccinium bracteatum Thunb., which is natural resource of Korea, so that the reduction of manufacturing and production costs and the import substitution and export effects can be expected through the replacement of a raw material for preparation with a plant inhabiting in nature.

Abstract: A thinner composition includes propylene glycol ether acetate, methyl 2-hydroxy-2-methyl propionate, and an ester compound such as ethyl lactate, ethyl 3-ethoxy propionate or a mixture thereof.

Abstract: A thinner composition is effective in removing a variety of photoresists, and includes propylene glycol mono-methyl ether acetate, ethyl 3-ethoxy propionate and at least one of &ggr;-butyro lactone and propylene glycol mono-methyl ether. The thinner composition can selectively strip a photoresist coated on a backside and at an edge portion of a substrate, as well as a photoresist coated on a whole front surface of the substrate.

Abstract: A nitride film etchant used in the manufacture semiconductor devices, and an etching method using the etchant, are provided. A wafer having a nitride film formed thereon is introduced into a bathing tube containing an etchant which is a water solution containing phosphoric acid (H3PO4) of a concentration of 50-70% by weight and hydrofluoric acid (HF), and the nitride film is etched by the etchant. When the concentration of HF is 0.005 to 0.05% by weight, the etch rate of the nitride film is increased, and the selectivity between the nitride film and an oxide film is kept very high. Also, an etchant containing HF of a concentration of 0.05% by weight is provided as a water solution mixed with H3PO4 and HF. Addition of HF of 0.05% by weight or less increases the etch rate of the nitride film, and a high selectivity of the nitride film with respect to an oxide film is maintained.

Abstract: A photoresist stripper composition is made up of a mixture of an acetic acid ester, &ggr;-butyrolactone (GBL), and a non-acetate ester or a poly alkyl alcohol derivative. The acetic acid ester may be at least one of n-butyl acetate, amyl acetate, ethyl aceto-acetate, and isopropyl acetate. The non-acetate ester may be at least one of ethyl lactate (EL), ethyl-3-ethoxy propionate (EEP) and methyl-3-methoxy (MMP). The poly alkyl alcohol derivative may be at least one of propylene glycol monomethyl ester (PGME) and propylene glycol monomethyl ester acetate (PGMEA).
