Abstract: 1,054,360. Semi - conductor devices. SIEMENS - SCHUCKERTWERKE A.G. Dec. 6, 1965 [Dec. 5, 1964], No. 51708/65. Heading H1K. In a diffusion process in which an impurity source and a semi-conductor substrate are sealed in a reaction vessel, the reaction gas comprises an oxide of the semi-conductor material and flows down the temperature gradient to the impurity source with which it reacts forming an oxide of the impurity; this oxide travels by a chemical transport reaction to the semi-conductor substrate with which it reacts depositing the impurity and reforming the semi-conductor oxide; the reaction vessel also has a condensation zone which, when activated precipitates the semi-conductor oxide to terminate or reduce its flow to the impurity source. As shown, Fig. 1, the reaction vessel comprises a sealed quartz tube 1 placed in a furnace 2 and heated by coils 3 to 6. The impurity source 7 comprises a quantity 9 of gallium disposed on a silicon support 9. The substrates 10 are of N-type silicon having P-type surface layers produced by a previous diffusion of aluminium. On heating the substrates, the silicon reacts with the silicon dioxide (quartz) of the tube 1 to form gaseous silicon monoxide which flows down the temperature gradient to source 7 where the silicon is deposited and a gaseous oxide of gallium is formed which travels to the substrates 10 with which it reacts depositing the gallium and reforming the silicon monoxide. Due to the elevated temperature the gallium diffuses into the substrates. Region 12 of the vessel forms a condensation zone so that when its temperature is reduced below that of source 7 the silicon monoxide generated at substrates 10 travels preferentially to region 12 where it is precipitated on the walls of tube 1 thereby reducing or terminating the transfer of gallium from source 7 to substrate 10. Depletion of the surfaces of the substrates is prevented by the presence of gallium vapour in the vessel. In an alternative arrangement, Fig. 2 (not shown), the condensation zone 12 is arranged between the source 7 and the substrates 10.

The swinging of the platforms is effected by a motor and transmission means which is capable of dividing the rotational power of the motor to alternatingly swing each platform. The apparatus includes a backboard for supporting the exerciser. As shown, 1 generally denotes a cabinet enclosing the driving means and the other devices, of which 8, is a backboard, 19 and 20 the foot platforms and 14 is a base which supports a bed upon which is mounted a carriage 29, slidable in the axial direction of worm 23 and rod 27. To operate the platforms motor 44 is started, whereby through pulley 52, belt 54, pulley 53, and worms 49 and 50, disc crank 55 is rotated thereby swinging lever 60 which through oscillating arm 68 turns the shaft 70 which causes footboard 19, via link 74 and rod 76 to swing up and down on shaft 16. The alternating turns of the shaft 70 are also conveyed with their directions reversed, to the other shaft 71 through the gears 72 and 73 to the other footboard 20 by link 75 and rod 77. The device for adjusting the angle through which each platform swings is controlled by pin 63 on nut 62, acting at a desired height in slot 69 in arm 68. The angle of swing is shown on an indicator 90. The adjustment of the angle between the centre line of the angle of swing of the platforms and the plane of the horizon is controlled by motor 33, operated by neutral biassed toggle switch 91, by moving actuator 92 towards indicia "U" whereby the motor rotates worm 28 in such a direction that carriage 29 moves towards the foot platforms on bed 23, and causes rods 76 and 77 to move similarly, thereby swinging the foot platforms 19 and 20 upwardly on their common shaft 16. The platforms are swung downwardly by moving actuator 92 towards "T" whereby the direction of the carriage is reversed. The angle between the centre line and the plane of the horizon is shown on indicator 93.
