PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily create a fine three-dimensional structure by suppressing the occurrence of a damaged part by side etching. SOLUTION: This method of manufacturing a semiconductor structure has a patterning process for selectively eliminating a first substrate 11 from a first main surface of the first substrate 11 to form a plurality of groove parts different in depth; a substrate joining process for joining the first main surface to the main surface of a second substrate; and a back face etching process for uniformly eliminating the first substrate 11 from a second main surface 11b facing the first main surface, to leave only projecting parts 14 between the groove parts. Prior to the back face etching process, a mask forming process is performed to form masks 22a, 22b, 22c on the second main surface 11b facing a part deeper in the groove part depth than the other groove parts.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an actuator that stably releases a latch state of being held by an engagement unit, and an optical device. SOLUTION: The actuator comprises: central electrode units 13, 14 displaceable in first and second directions; the engagement unit 2a that is held in at least one state out of first and second displaced states and a central state by being engaged with the central electrode unit; a first side electrode unit 18 that applies stress to the central electrode unit in the first direction and releases the second displaced state that the engagement unit is held by being displaced in the second direction; and a second side electrode unit 21 that imparts stress to the central electrode unit in the second direction and releases the first displaced state that the engagement unit is held by being displaced in the first direction. When the first side electrode unit starts the release operation of the second displaced state or the central state, the second side electrode unit imparts stress to the central electrode unit in the second direction.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device where irregularities of the characteristics are reduced, and stable yield can be obtained. SOLUTION: A field oxide film 3 is formed on a surface of an N type active layer 2. The field oxide film 3 in a part, where an N type source region of high concentration and an N type drain region of high concentration are formed, is eliminated by a photolithographic process and an etching process, and aperture parts 4a, 4b are formed. In this case, a plurality of mask patterns of the photolithographic process are prepared. A mask pattern, whose drift length Ld is short is used for each wafer of one lot where the average value of thickness of active layers 1c, is at least a specified value. A mask pattern, whose drift length Ld is long is used for each wafer of one lot where the average value of thickness of the active layers 1c is less than the specified value.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor device improving reliability and its manufacturing method. SOLUTION: A light shielding film 14 is arranged opposite to a protection film 13 covering a semiconductor device in the main surface side of a substrate 1, and a gap between the protection film 13 and the light shielding film 14 is held a prescribed distance by a support part 15 consisting of the same metal material as the light shielding film 14. The light shielding film 14 is rectangularly formed in a face orthogonal to the thickness direction of the substrate 1, and the support part 15 is formed along one side of the light shielding film 14. The light shielding film 14 and the support part 15 are continuously integrally formed. Thus, the gap is formed between the light shielding film 14 and the protection film 13, and the light shielding film 14 and the protection film 13 are continued to only the support part 15 formed by the same metal material as the light shielding film 14.
