Publication number: 20050214533Abstract: A photocatalytic composite material having a high activity and good durability is produced by coating the surface of a substrate with a continuous film of titanium oxide by vapor deposition from titanium tetrachloride. In the case of a substrate which is a mass of inorganic fibers such as glass cloth, the individual fibers or filaments in the mass are coated with titanium oxide. The vapor deposition is performed by contacting the substrate, such as a mass of inorganic fibers, which has been heated to 100-300° C., with a mixture of distilled pure titanium tetrachloride vapor and water vapor to form a film of a titanium oxide precursor on the surface of the substrate. Then, the substrate is heated at 300-600° C. in an oxidizing atmosphere, resulting in the formation on the substrate surface of a continuous film of a photocatalyst having a high activity and good adhesion to the substrate and comprising crystalline titanium oxide with an average crystallite diameter of 50 nm or smaller.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2002Publication date: September 29, 2005Applicant: Sumitomo Titanium CorporationInventors: Shinji Shimosaki, Tadashi Ogasawara, Munetoshi Watanabe, Kouji Oda, Sadanobu Nagaoaka, Yasuhiro Masaki

Patent number: 6544904Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided, which prevents a polyimide film from coming unstuck from a film to be subjected to isotropic etching, and further prevents deposits adhered to respective side faces of the films from coming off, during a heat treatment for imidizing the polyimide film. Isotropic etching is performed on a silicon nitride film 4 using, as a mask, a polyimide film 5 having a predetermined pattern formed therein. Next, a heat treatment is carried out to imidize the polyimide film 5 prior to performing anisotropic etching on a silicon oxide film 3. During the heat treatment for imidizing the polyimide film 5, since deposits, which are to be generated by anisotropic etching, are not yet adhered to the respective side faces of the films, the polyimide film 5 does not come unstuck from the silicon nitride film 4. Further, the deposits which are adhered to the respective side face of the films after the heat treatment will not come off.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2002Date of Patent: April 8, 2003Assignees: Ryoden Semiconductor System Engineering Corporation, Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yuuki Kamiura, Hiroshi Tobimatsu, Kouji Oda, Mahito Sawada, Koji Shibata, Hiroyuki Kawata
