    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vapor phase growing method for nitride semiconductor, whereby a uniform crystal layer can be obtained with a high reproducibility by the vapor phase growth technology for gallium nitride compound semiconductors, etc. SOLUTION: The method comprises forming a protective film for obstructing the crystal growth on a substrate, so that a first nitride semiconductor layer is exposed through window regions partly opened through the protective film, starting the selective growth of a second nitride semiconductor layer from the first nitride semiconductor layer at a required growth starting temperature and rising the temperature over the growth starting temperature to continue the crystal growth. A uniform low-temperature grown layer is obtained by the vapor phase growth at a low temperature before temperature rise, and then a high-temperature grown layer is formed to form a uniform and highly reproducible crystal layer which reflects the uniformity of the low-temperature grown layer.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To make it possible to project animation images to be projected as bright images with high accuracy by making efficiency of utilizing luminous fluxes figher by composing the optical modulation material of an optical writing type spatial optical modulator of a monostable type ferroelectric liquid crystal. CONSTITUTION:This animation image projector has an optical writing type spatial optical modulator 1, the so-called light valve, an electric address type writing light source section 2 which executes optical writing to this optical writing type spatial optical modulator 1, a projecting light source section 3 and a projecting optical system 4. The optical modulation material of the optical writing type spatial optical modulator 1 is formed out of a monostable type ferroelectric liquid crystal and in addition, the modulator 1 is not formed in a X, Y electrode wiring structure, etc., but is formed to be of optical writing type spatial optical modulator constitution. The optical images corresponding to the projected animation from the electric address type writing light source section 2 is written into the optical writing type spatial optical modulator 1. The light from the projecting light source section 3 is optically modulated by such optical writing type spatial optical modulator 1 to obtain the projected animation images. These images are projected to a screen via the projecting optical system 4.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain a crystalline plane, which is readily utilized as a reflecting mirror surface forming a specified angle with respect to a substrate accurately and easily under the relatively gentle growing conditions. CONSTITUTION:On a semiconductor substrate, whose principal plane is a crystalline plane {100}, a step difference 2, wherein side surface 2A-2D are the crystalline planes {010} and an upper plane 2S surrounded by the side surface 2A and 2B comprise planes that are in parallel with the principal panel, is formed. A semiconductor 2 is subjected to vapor grown on the semiconductor substrate having the step difference. Thus, crystalline plane {110}, which is extending from a part corresponding to an edge 12E of the step difference 2, is grown. With the crystalline plane {110} as the constituting plane, the crystalline plane having the angle 45 deg. with respect to the principal plane is manufactured.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To simplify the manufacturing process by forming a stripe-shaped semiconductor layer whose one side surface is a growing surface and other side surface is a surface that is not grown on a semiconductor substrate, and thereafter epitaxially growing semiconductor layers for forming a laser structure. CONSTITUTION:A semiconductor layer 2 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 1. One side surface of the layer 2 is a growing surface, and the other side surface is a surface that is not grown. Then, semiconductor layers 3-6 for forming a laser structure are epitaxially grown. At this time, the surface that is not grown includes the surface wherein the semiconductor layers 3-6 are grown but the growing thicknesses are very small in addition to the surface where the growth does not occur at all. Thus, the manufacturing process is simplified, and the occurrence of damages in the epitaxially grown semiconductor layers is prevented.
