  • Patent number: 5350921
    Abstract: An analytical electron microscope automatically identifies objects in a sample on the basis of shape of the object, change of thickness of the object and/or change of element (such as change of element type or concentration). Therefore, the operator of the analytical electron microscope can specify a desired object, and an example or examples of that object in a sample can be identified automatically. The characteristics need to identify the object are determined by detecting the effect of the sample on the electron beam of the analytical electron microscope, using, for example, an energy dispersive type X-ray analyzer and an electron energy loss spectrometer. Once an example of the object has been identified, it may be analyzed further. The analytical electron microscope may also analyze a sample to identify and classify the objects present.

  • Patent number: 4901134
    Abstract: A semiconductor LSI device formed in a semiconductor substrate comprising source/ drain regions of a MOSFET, polycrystalline silicon conductor to be connected to the source/drain region, and a silicide layer interposed between the source/drain region and the polycrystalline silicon conductor. Silicide intrudes into silicon bulk through an oxide film on the silicon substrate surface, assuring contact of low resistance, while lateral resistance of the source/drain region formed in the semiconductor substrate is also reduced. Reduction of contact/connection resistances is accomplished in a high density LSI which is thus imparted with an improved high-speed performance.

  • Patent number: 4219373
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a semiconductor device of the type wherein aluminium layers are selectively deposited on the major surface of a silicon semiconductor substrate and thereafter aluminium is selectively diffused into the silicon semiconductor substrate by means of heat treatment in an atmosphere including an oxygen gas. Recesses are selectively formed in at least one major surface of the silicon semiconductor substrate, aluminium is deposited onto the recesses, and the silicon semiconductor substrate is then subjected to a heat treatment to selectively diffuse the aluminium into the silicon semiconductor substrate. Layers of oxide of silicon-aluminium alloy formed on the major surface subjected to the aluminium diffusion will not cause any damage of a photo-mask and at the same time accuracy in positioning the photo-mask may be improved. A failure to mount a semiconductor element onto a heat sink may also be prevented.

  • Patent number: 4154632
    Abstract: An aluminum diffusion source layer is formed by vacuum evaporation on a major surface of a silicon substrate. The silicon substrate is heated to form an aluminum-silicon alloy layer, an aluminum doped silicon recrystallization layer and an aluminum diffusion layer. Thereafter, the aluminum-silicon alloy layer is removed from the major surface of the silicon substrate. Drive-in diffusion is performed so as to diffuse, aluminum included in the silicon recrystallization layer and the aluminum diffusion layer, into the silicon substrate. As a result, the aluminum diffusion concentration of 10.sup.16 -10.sup.19 atoms/cm.sup.3 can be obtained.
