Patent Searching and Data


Title:
SEMICONDUCTOR ELEMENT COMPRISING A SEQUENCE OF LAYERS FOR CONVERTING ACOUSTIC OR THERMAL SIGNALS AND ELECTRICAL VOLTAGE CHANGES INTO EACH OTHER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002009131
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The sequence of layers has a lower electrode (U), an upper electrode (O) and a piezoelectric or pyroelectric layer (S) which is located between them. An auxiliary layer (H) is located between the lower electrode (U) and said layer (S), said auxiliary layer ensuring that the orientation of the layer (S) is homogenous as it grows during the production process. The auxiliary layer (H) preferably consists essentially of amorphous silicon, amorphous silicon oxide or amorphous silicon nitride.
