Patent number: 6001719Abstract: Methods of forming metal silicide layers include the steps of forming electrically conductive lines that comprise the steps of forming a layer of polysilicon on a semiconductor substrate and then forming a layer of metal silicide on the polysilicon layer, opposite the substrate. The layer of metal silicide and the layer of polysilicon are then patterned as an electrically conductive line having sidewalls. The semiconductor substrate is then exposed to a cleaning agent that selectively etches the patterned layer of metal silicide at a faster rate than the patterned layer of polysilicon. The patterned layer of metal silicide is then thermally oxidized to define recess spacers extending adjacent sidewalls of the electrically conductive line. An electrically insulating layer is then formed on the electrically conductive line and on the recess spacers. The electrically insulating layer is then anisotropically etched to define insulating spacers on the recess spacers.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 1997Date of Patent: December 14, 1999Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kwang-lae Cho, Jin-gyoo Choi

Patent number: 5655025Abstract: In a mono/stereo input circuit for use in an audio equipment, and more particularly in a circuit for automatically recognizing and receiving mono/stereo audio signals, although a mono connector is inserted into a stereo jack, such an insertion of the mono connector is automatically recognized and then a stereo circuit can operate as a form of a mono circuit. The circuit for automatically recognizing and receiving the mono/stereo audio signals utilizes a fact that one connection terminal of the jack is grounded or not according to a type of the connector such as a mono connector and a stereo connector which is inserted into the jack. Accordingly, a resistor used as a voltage generator generates a generation voltage according to such a connector recognition. Also, using a difference between the generated voltage, the analog switches are turned on or off, to obtain a mono or a stereo audio signal processing circuit according to a type of the inserted connector.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 1995Date of Patent: August 5, 1997Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Sung-soo Kim, Young-gyoo Choi, Noh-byung Park
