  • Publication number: 20060063316
    Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor device including on a single semiconductor substrate, a first MOS transistor having a first gate insulating film of a predetermined thickness, and second and third MOS transistors sharing a second gate insulating film smaller in thickness than the first gate insulating film, the third MOS transistor being lower in threshold voltage than the second MOS transistor, the method includes the steps of: adjusting the threshold voltages of the first and third MOS transistors by first ion-implantation; and adjusting the threshold voltage of the second MOS transistor by second ion-implantation, the second ion-implantation being performed under implantation conditions different from those of the first ion-implantation.

  • Patent number: 6521553
    Abstract: A deodorant fibrous material contains (1) as a first deodorant material, at least one deodorant component selected from inorganic type and polyorganic acid, ester or salt type components, (2) as a second deodorant material, at least one hydrazine compound and (3) a synthetic resin binder. The deodorant fibrous material can be produced by applying to a fibrous material by a padding or coating method, a liquid composition containing the above components (1)-(3), followed by subsequent heat treatment.

  • Patent number: 6509742
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide an electromagnetic noise measurement apparatus, electromagnetic noise measurement method and recording medium capable of preventing erroneous measurement of electromagnetic noise and of enhancing measurement efficiency. An electromagnetic noise measurement apparatus includes a PC, a field intensity meter, a spectrum analyzer, a preamplifier, a controller, a printer and the like. The controller is connected to a turn table for turning an electromagnetic noise measurement target, e.g., a copying machine, and to an antenna elevator for elevating an antenna for measuring electromagnetic noise radiated from the copying machine. The controller controls the turn table and the antenna elevator according to command of the PC. The PC compares a QP value acquired by the field intensity meter with a peak level acquired by the spectrum analyzer, and displays an error message if the difference between the QP value and the peak level is large.

  • Patent number: 6418032
    Abstract: A printed wiring board in which noise components at a high frequency side of a power supply voltage can be eliminated, and undesired radiation noisewhich is newly generated can be suppressed, such that noise can be greatly reduced overall. The printed wiring board includes a first signal layer, a GND layer, a power source layer and a second signal layer. A sub-power source layer is provided on a same layer as a main power source layer. The sub-power source layer is formed in a substantially oval shape at a predetermined position in a substantially oval opening in the main power source layer, such that it is not in direct contact with the main power source layer. Power supply voltage is supplied from the main power source layer through an L-type filter.

  • Patent number: 6323107
    Abstract: A process for forming a device isolation region comprising the steps of: forming a pad oxide film and a silicon nitride film on a semiconductor substrate; removing the pad oxide film and the silicon nitride film on a region for device isolation and forming a trench in the semiconductor substrate by etching using the remaining pad oxide film and silicon nitride film as an etching mask; forming a first oxide film at least on the bottom and sidewalls of the trench and below the pad oxide film under an end portion of the silicon nitride film using the silicon nitride film as a mask resistant to oxidization; forming a gap between the silicon nitride film and the semiconductor substrate by removing the first oxide film on the bottom and the sidewalls of the trench and the first oxide film and the pad oxide film below the end portion of the silicon nitride film by etching using the silicon nitride film as an etching mask; forming a second oxide film at least on the bottom and the sidewalls of the trench and in the g

  • Patent number: 5180402
    Abstract: A dyed synthetic fiber having antibacterial and antifungal properties is described, which contains 0.01 to 20 weight % of a silver-substituted zeolite and 0.001 to 1.0 weight % of a substantially water-insoluble copper compound. The copper compound is present independent of zeolite particles in the fiber. The dyed synthetic fiber is prepared by incorporating a silver-substituted zeolite in a monomer or a polymerization mixture before the completion of polymerization in the step of preparing a polymer for the fiber; further incorporating the copper compound in the polymer before the spinning thereof into a fiber; spinning the polymer into a fiber; and dyeing the fiber. The dyed fiber retains a high level of antibacterial and antifungal properties.
