霧化工程は、前記原料溶液を霧化する。前記原料溶液の霧化手段は、前記原料溶液を霧化できさえすれば特に限定されず、公知の手段であってよいが、本発明の実施態様においては、超音波を用いる霧化手段が好ましい。超音波を用いて得られた霧化液滴は、初速度がゼロであり、空中に浮遊するので好ましく、例えば、スプレーのように吹き付けるのではなく、空間に浮遊してガスとして搬送することが可能なミストであるので衝突エネルギーによる損傷がないため、非常に好適である。液滴サイズは、特に限定されず、数mm程度の液滴であってもよいが、好ましくは50μm以下であり、より好ましくは100nm~10μmである。
前記原料溶液は、霧化または液滴化が可能であり、半導体膜を形成可能な原料を含んでいれば特に限定されず、無機材料であっても、有機材料であってもよい。本発明の実施態様においては、前記原料が、金属または金属化合物であるのが好ましく、アルミニウム、ガリウム、インジウム、鉄、クロム、バナジウム、チタン、ロジウム、ニッケル、コバルトおよびイリジウムから選ばれる1種または2種以上の金属を含むのがより好ましい。
搬送工程では、キャリアガスでもって前記霧化液滴を成膜室内に搬送する。前記キャリアガスとしては、本発明の目的を阻害しない限り特に限定されず、例えば、酸素、オゾン、窒素やアルゴン等の不活性ガス、または水素ガスやフォーミングガス等の還元ガスなどが好適な例として挙げられる。また、キャリアガスの種類は1種類であってよいが、2種類以上であってもよく、流量を下げた希釈ガス(例えば10倍希釈ガス等)などを、第2のキャリアガスとしてさらに用いてもよい。また、キャリアガスの供給箇所も1箇所だけでなく、2箇所以上あってもよい。キャリアガスの流量は、特に限定されないが、0.01~20L/分であるのが好ましく、1~10L/分であるのがより好ましい。希釈ガスの場合には、希釈ガスの流量が、0.001~2L/分であるのが好ましく、0.1~1L/分であるのがより好ましい。
成膜工程では、前記基体近傍で前記霧化液滴を熱反応させることによって、基体上に、前記半導体膜を成膜する。熱反応は、熱でもって前記霧化液滴が反応すればそれでよく、反応条件等も本発明の目的を阻害しない限り特に限定されない。本工程においては、前記熱反応を、通常、溶媒の蒸発温度以上の温度で行うが、高すぎない温度(例えば1000℃)以下が好ましく、650℃以下がより好ましく、300℃~650℃が最も好ましい。また、熱反応は、本発明の目的を阻害しない限り、真空下、非酸素雰囲気下(例えば、不活性ガス雰囲気下等)、還元ガス雰囲気下および酸素雰囲気下のいずれの雰囲気下で行われてもよいが、不活性ガス雰囲気下または酸素雰囲気下で行われるのが好ましい。また、大気圧下、加圧下および減圧下のいずれの条件下で行われてもよいが、本発明の実施態様においては、大気圧下で行われるのが好ましい。なお、膜厚は、成膜時間を調整することにより、設定することができる。
前記基体は、前記半導体膜を支持できるものであれば特に限定されない。前記基体の材料も、本発明の目的を阻害しない限り特に限定されず、公知の基体であってよく、有機化合物であってもよいし、無機化合物であってもよい。前記基体の形状としては、どのような形状のものであってもよく、あらゆる形状に対して有効であり、例えば、平板や円板等の板状、繊維状、棒状、円柱状、角柱状、筒状、螺旋状、球状、リング状などが挙げられるが、本発明の実施態様においては、基板が好ましい。基板の厚さは、本発明の実施態様においては特に限定されない。
なお、上述の制御システム500は本発明の半導体装置を電気自動車の制御システムに適用できるだけではなく、直流電源からの電力を昇圧・降圧したり、直流から交流へ電力変換するといったあらゆる用途の制御システムに適用することが可能である。また、バッテリーとして太陽電池などの電源を用いることも可能である。
