摘要:
A magnetic disk unit of form factor size with a low power consumption, a short average seek time and a high performance. The unit includes at least two spindles (3', 4') for supporting and rotating magnetic disks. Specifically, two 1.3-inch disks (3, 4), three 1.0-inch disks (5, 6, 7) or four 0.7-inch disks (8, 9, 10, 11) are arranged in a housing (1) originally intended for a 1.8-inch magnetic disk. The unit further includes a device for writing and reading information while selecting a spindle. The card-type disk unit thus can be reduced in thickness, with a smaller power consumption for starting the disk rotation and further with an improved average seek velocity.

A thin film phototransistor comprises a source electrode (6), a drain electrode (7), a gate electrode '(2), a gate insulating film (3), and a semiconductor layer (4), having no overlapped region between the. gate electrode (2) and the source electrode (6) and/or between the gate electrode (2) and the drain electrode (7). Such a phototransistor has (1) a function as a photosensor and a switching function, (2) a high input impedance, (3) a voltage control function, and (4) a high photocurrent ON / OFF ratio. This thin film phototransistor can be used independently or together with a thin film transistor for picture elements of a one-dimensional or two-dimensional photosensor array, producing satisfactory results.

An active matrix liquid crystal display is disclosed in which a better image quality is obtained by specifying a relation between voltages (V S , V DMAX ) applied to the liquid crystal display. Also, a better holding characteristic is obtained by selecting the channel resistance R OFF of a thin film transistor (1) in its OFF state to be not smaller than 10¹²Ω.

In a semiconductor device having a floating gate electrode (16), an electric field to be applied to a gate oxide film (14) is locally modulated in a region where the floating gate electrode (16) overlaps a drain or source region (21). The device of the present invention is well suited for application as a nonvolatile memory cell, and it exhibits a slight leakage current in an erase operation and has a high immunity against the drain disturb phenomenon.
摘要:
A liquid crystal display panel and a method of driving the display panel are disclosed. The display panel and the driving method can reduce the leakage of a gate driving voltage to a first pixel electrode (9) due to the parasitic capacitance of a thin field transistor (4), and can lessen an adverse effect of noise which is generated at a second pixel electrode by cancelling out the capacitive coupling to the first pixel electrode, on an image displayed by the display panel.
摘要:
A collector lead-out portion (22) and a base lead-out portion (14) are formed so as to oppose each other in such a manner that active regions including a collector (3), a base (2) and an emitter (1) are sandwiched therebetween. The collector lead-out portion (22) and the base lead-out portion (14) are formed by ion implantation or selective epitaxial growth. Thus, a planar type heterojunction bipolar transistor capable of a high density of integration is formed.

@ A thin film transistor has a layer (15) formed by the interfacial reaction between amorphous silicon and metal, which is used as a central or base electrode (15,11). The base electrode (15, 11) is in the shape of stripes or a flat surface. The base electrode (15, 11) is sandwiched between the emitter (4, 5, 14, 10) and collector (4, 5, 6, 12) of the transistor, which may each consist of an n-type hydrogenated amorphous silicon layer (5) and an intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon layer (4), with the intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon layer (4) being close to the base electrode (15, 11). There may be p-type hydrogenated amorphous silicon layers between the base electrode (15, 11) and the intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon layer.
