Abstract: An anisotropic etching method and apparatus is disclosed, by which the
anisotropic etching of a wafer surface can be stably performed, the generation of µ
pyramids generated on the etched surface of a semiconductor wafer can be reduced,
and the etching depth can be uniform. Therefore, during the anisotropic etching, a
replenishing etchant which compensates for the evaporation of a component from the
surface of the anisotropic etchant is continuously supplied by an amount corresponding
to the amount of the component evaporated. An anisotropic etching apparatus is also
disclosed, by which the etchant is not contaminated, the evaporated component of the
etchant does not catch fire, the composition of the etchant does not change and the
characteristics of the anisotropic etching are stabilized, the generation of µ pyramids
can be suppressed, and the etching depth is uniform over the wafer surface. In the
apparatus, when a circulating pump is operated, a heating medium in a heating medium
jacket is drawn into a heating medium circulating passage, and then is heated by a
heating device in the middle of the passage and returned to the jacket. The
anisotropic etchant in the anisotropic etching vessel is heated by the heat of the
returned heating medium.

Abstract: An object is to provide a compact apparatus and a
method for generating wavelength-tunable short optical pulses,
which apparatus and method can change the wavelength of
generated pulses without adjustment of an optical system and
enables generation of ideal femtosecond soliton pulses. 
     The apparatus includes a short-optical-pulse source (1),
an optical characteristic regulation unit (2) for regulating
characteristics of light output from the short-optical-pulse
source (1), and an optical fiber (3) for receiving input
pulses from the optical characteristic regulation unit (2)
and for changing the wavelength of output pulses linearly.
Short optical pulses are input to the optical fiber, so that
new soliton pulses are generated in the optical fiber due to
its nonlinear effect. Further, the nonlinear effect enables
the wavelength of the soliton pulses to shift linearly in
accordance with the intensity of input light.
