This paper has determined the number of resistivity divisions and their separations by statistical methods and introduced fuzzy mathematics to place the data into different fuzzy sets, after choosing the exponent function as a membership function for fuzzy sets and suitable values of thresholds. One fuzzy set corresponds to one resistivity isocontour. Then,the resistivity isocontours can be drawn with a definite separation and fi- nally shown in a map with MATLAB. The deviation of resistivity data on an isocontour is small and there are few residual test points without connections. So, the connection of the isocontours are high-quality and useful in application for instructing practical production.展开更多

The results show that when the cutting edge radius decreases in the nanometric grinding process with the same cut-depth and grinding speed, the depth of the damage layers and the potential energy between the silicon atoms decrease too. Also, when the cut depth increases, both the depth of the damage layers and the potential energy between silicon atoms increase. When the grinding speed is between 20 and 200m/s,the depth of the damage layers does not change much with the increase of the grinding speed under the same cutting edge radius and cut depth conditions. This means that the MD simulation is not sensitive to changes in the grinding speed, and thus increasing the grinding speed properly can shorten the sion,the subsurface damage of monocrystal silicon is silicon atoms, which is verified by the ultra-precision simulation time and enlarge the simulation scale. In conclumainly based on the change of the potential energy between grinding and CMP experiments.展开更多

According to the theory for kinetics of reaction of vapour with solid phase a nitridation kinetic model, from which it can be shown thal the rate of nitridation reaction of silicon crystal should be controlled by three stage limiting factors, was proposed. These limiting factors are chemical reaction, chemical reaction mixed with diffusion and diffu- sion. Using this model to treat our experimental data, satisfactory correlation coefficient and apparent activation energy of nitridation of p-type (lll) silicon crystal have been obtained. The nitride film was identi' fied to be a-Si_3N_4 (Hexagonal, a=0.7758nm,c_o=0.5623nm) by X-ray diffraction analysis. Morphology of the nitride films formed in different nitridation duration was observed in both planar andcross-sectional views by SEM (scanning electron microscope).展开更多

The metal interconnection of the device is fabricated by a 0.5 μm standard CMOS process on 8-inch silicon wafer. Then, a SiO2-Si low-temperature fusion bonding is developed to bond the CMOS wafer and the MEMS wafer, with the electrical connection realized by the tungsten through silicon via process. Wafer- level A1Ge euteetic bonding is adopted to package the Pirani gauge in a non-hermetic cavity to protect the gauge from being damaged or contaminated in the dicing and assembling process, and to make it suitable for actual applications. To increase the accuracy of the test and restrain negative influence of temperature drift, the Wheatstone bridge structure is introduced. The test results show that before capping, the gauge has an average sensitivity of 1.04 × 104 K.W-1Torr-1 in dynamic range of 0.01 20 Torr. After capping, the sensitivity of the gauge does not decrease but increases to 1.12 × 104 K.W-1 Torr-1.展开更多

For both kinds of specimens,the concentration of VO3 reachs to maximum at 550 ℃ and does not disappear completely at 600 ℃.展开更多
