Patent EP-1540715-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CAPEWELL ADAM DANIEL
IPC: H01L21/20
Filed: 2003-08-12
Abstract: A method of forming a lattice-tuning semiconductor substrate comprises the steps of defining parallel strips of a Si surface by the provision of spaced parallel oxide walls (2) on the surface, selectively growing a first SiGe layer on the strips such that first dislocations (3) extend preferentially across the first SiGe layer between the walls (2) to relieve the strain in the first SiGe layer in directions transverse to the walls (2), and growing a second SiGe layer on top of the first SiGe layer to overgrow the walls (2) such that second dislocations form preferentially within the second SiGe layer above the walls (2) to relieve the strain in the second SiGe layer in directions transverse to the first dislocations (3). The dislocations so produced serve to relax the material in two mutually transverse directions whilst being spatially separated so that the two sets of dislocations cannot interact with one another. Thus the density of threading dislocations and the surface roughness is greatly reduced, thus enhancing the performance of the virtual substrate by decreasing the disruption of the atomic lattice that can lead to scattering of electrons in the active devices and degradation of the speed of movement of the electrons.

Abstract: A nitrogen oxide decomposing element and a nitrogen oxide
decomposing apparatus can perform a treatment at a relatively
low temperature without using a material, which is suspected
to have influence on the environment and human body, as an oxidant
or a catalyst. There is proposed a nitrogen oxide decomposing
element 1 including a conductive solid electrolyte film 2 for
selectively allowing a hydrogen ion to pass through, a first
electrode layer 3 made of an electronic conductivity base
material and a catalyst for accelerating anodic oxidation, a
second electrode layer 4 made of an electronic conductivity
base material and a catalyst for accelerating cathodic reduction,
and a platinum group catalyst 6 supported by a porous metal
oxide 5 disposed to be adjacent to the second electrode layer
4. A low-power consumption nitrogen oxide decomposing
apparatus which can efficiently use electric energy is obtained
by locating a nitrogen oxide sensor 14 in the vicinity of the
platinum group catalyst 6 supported by the metal oxide 5, and
controlling the magnitude of a current flowing between the first
and the second electrode layers 3 and 4 and the energization
time by a power source/control device 15 in accordance with
the concentration of nitrogen oxide detected by the nitrogen
oxide sensor 14.
