  • Patent number: 9150002
    Abstract: An electroless surface treatment plated layer of a printed circuit board, a method for preparing the same, and printed circuit board including the same. The electroless surface treatment plated layer includes: electroless nickel (Ni) plated coating/palladium (Pd) plated coating/gold (Au) plated coating, wherein the electroless nickel, palladium, and gold plated coatings have thicknesses of 0.02 to 1 ?m, 0.01 to 0.3 ?m, and 0.01 to 0.5 ?m, respectively. In the electroless surface treatment plated layer of the printed circuit board, a thickness of the nickel plated coating is specially minimized to 0.02 to 1 ?m, thereby making it possible to form an optimized electroless Ni/Pd/Au surface treatment plated layer.

  • Publication number: 20150255595
    Abstract: Provided are a low-cost semiconductor device manufacturing method and a semiconductor device made using the method. The method includes forming multiple body regions in a semiconductor substrate, forming multiple gate insulating layers and multiple gate electrodes in the body region; implementing a blanket ion implantation in an entire surface of the substrate to form a low concentration doping region (LDD region) in the body region without a mask, forming a spacer at a side wall of the gate electrode, and implementing a high concentration ion implantation to form a high concentration source region and a high concentration drain region around the LDD region. According to the examples, devices have favorable electrical characteristics and at the same time, manufacturing costs are reduced. Since, when forming high concentration source region and drain regions, tilt and rotation co-implants are applied, an LDD masking step is potentially omitted.

  • Patent number: 8156635
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a carrier for manufacturing a substrate, including: an insulation layer including a first metal layer formed on one side or both sides thereof; a second metal layer formed on one side of the first metal layer; and a third metal layer formed on one side of the second metal layer, wherein the second metal layer has a lower melting point than the first metal layer or the third metal layer. The carrier is advantageous in that a build up layer can be separated from a carrier by heating, so that a routing process is not required, with the result that the size of a substrate does not change when the build up layer is separated from the carrier, thereby reusing the carrier and maintaining the compatibility between the substrate and manufacturing facilities.
