20090325185 | Method of analyzing expression of gene - A cDNA is prepared from mRNA. The prepared cDNA is subjected to incision with two different types of restriction enzymes. The sequence of a portion of each of the fragments obtained as a result of treatment is determined, and the fragments are classified on the basis of the determined sequence by using a primer set. At the same time, the fragments are amplified in a manner that the relative expression magnitude thereof continues to be reflected therein. When the fragments have been classified into a predetermined number of fractions, the respective fractions are subjected to electrophoresis, and a gene expression profile is produced from the results. | 12-31-2009 |

20100221912 | Method of Manufacturing a semiconductor device - A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes a process of removing, by dry etching, an insulating layer which is formed on the top surface of a Ni-containing silicide layer to thereby at least partially expose the Ni-containing silicide layer; and a process of cleaning the exposed portion of the Ni-containing silicide layer using reduced water having a reductive function. | 09-02-2010 |
20100330799 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME - Improved control over formation of low k air gaps in interlayer insulating films is achieved by plasma pretreatment of the region of the insulating film to be removed. The intended air gap region is exposed through a mask while the film region to be preserved is shielded by the mask. The intended air gap region is then exposed to a plasma so as to render it more susceptible to removal in a subsequent treatment. One or more Cu interconnects are embedded in both regions of the insulator film. The insulator film in the intended air gap region is then selectively removed to form air gaps adjacent a Cu interconnect in that region. | 12-30-2010 |
