| 20100181566 | Electrode Structure, Device Comprising the Same and Method for Forming Electrode Structure - An electrode structure comprises a semiconductor junction comprising an n-type semiconductor layer and a p-type semiconductor layer; a hole exnihilation layer on the p-type semiconductor layer; and a transparent electrode layer on the hole exnihilation layer. The electrode structure further comprises a conductive layer between the hole exnihilation layer and the transparent electrode layer. In the electrode structure, one or more of the hole exnihilation layer, the conductive layer and the transparent electrode layer may be formed by an atomic layer deposition. In the electrode structure, a transparent electrode formed of a degenerated n-type oxide semiconductor does not come in direct contact with a p-type semiconductor, and thus, annihilation or recombination of holes generated in the p-type semiconductor can be reduced, which increases the carrier generation efficiency. Further, the electric conductivity of the transparent electrode is increased by the conductive layer, which improves electrical characteristics of a device. | 07-22-2010 |

| 20110117514 | Silicon Firnaceware for Stressed Film - A method of fabricating the semiconductor wafer processing fixtures for having longer longevity on high stressed film applications such as LPCVD-SiN, silicon carbide and other ceramics than that of non-processed parts. One aspect of the invention includes nitriding, oxidizing, or carbiding a surface layer of a polysilicon part, such as furnaceware, for converting silicon to a silicon compound and its converted surface covers and masks the underlying polycrystalline structure. A plasma immersion ion implantation of a heavy noble gas or carbon, silicon or nitrogen is followed by to form high-energy states creating gettering states adjacent the surface and the ion implanted region serves to anchor production layers such as LPCVD-SiN forming on the polysilicon part. As a result of gettering effect, tightly bonded high stressed film onto a polysilicon part allows the CVD deposition of much thicker films without peeling or cracking as long as the gettering effect remains. | 05-19-2011 |
