    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to suppress the formation of an inverted layer by automatic doping and diffusion of impurities into an epitaxial layer. SOLUTION: A field oxide film 2 is formed on an n-type silicon substrate 1. With photoresist which is patterned in the specified shape as a mask, an opening part 2a is formed by etching the field oxide film 2. The photoresist is removed. Then, with the field oxide film 2 wherein the opening part 2a is formed as a mask, p-type impurities are deposited. A p+ type embedded sacrifice layer 3 is formed by performing thermal diffusion in nitrogen atmosphere. Then, a silicon oxide film 4 is formed at the formed part of the opening part 2a by performing wet oxidation or pyrogenic oxidation. Then, the field oxide film 2 and the silicon oxide film 4 are completely etched and removed along the entire surface. An n-type epitaxial layer 5 is deposited on the formed side of the p+ type embedded sacrifice layer 3 of the silicon substrate 1. At this time, p-type impurities are diffused from the p+ type embedded sacrifice layer 3 through the interface with the silicon substrate 1, and a final p-type embedded sacrifice layer 6 is formed.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compact semiconductor micro-actuator capable of being driven with low power consumption. SOLUTION: An end part of each flexible part 3 connected to a frame body 6 through a first connecting part 11 at the other end, is connected to a movable element 4 through a second connecting part 12. When each flexible part 3 is heated, it is deflected by the difference in the coefficients of thermal expansion between the flexible part 3 and a thin film 5, whereby displacing the movable element 4. A distance to a valve seat 7a is changed by the displacement of the movable element 4, and a flow rate of the fluid flowing in a through hole 7 is controlled. The connecting part 11 for connecting the flexible part 3 and the movable element 4 has the flexural rigidity lower than that of the second connecting part 12 for connecting the frame body 6 and the flexible part 3.
