Abstract: In an impeller 11, an inlet portion and an outlet portion are provided at one end side and the other end side in the axial direction, respectively. An inlet 29 is formed in the lower part of the inlet portion, and an outlet is formed in the side face of the outlet portion.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a bipolar transistor having an improved polysilicon emitter is disclosed. More specifically, hydrogen terminations or OH group terminations adhered (bonded) to an emitter-forming region are eliminated by a heat treatment in an inert gas atmosphere before forming emitter polysilicon. Subsequently, an amorphous silicon film for forming an emitter polysilicon is formed at a low temperature.
