    摘要: A photoelectric conversion element is disposed in each of a plurality of recesses of a support. Light reflected by the inside surface of the recess shines on the photoelectric conversion element. The photoelectric conversion element has an approximately spherical shape and has the following structure. The outer surface of a center-side n-type amorphous silicon (a-Si) layer is covered with a p-type amorphous SiC (a-SiC) layer having a wider optical band gap than a-Si does, whereby a pn junction is formed. A first conductor of the support is connected to the p-type a-SiC layer of the photoelectric conversion element at the bottom or its neighborhood of the recess. A second conductor, which is insulated from the first conductor by an insulator, of the support is connected to the n-type a-Si layer of the photoelectric conversion element.

    摘要: There is provided a magnetoresistive head which is capable of suppressing the fluctuation of read output while ensuring a sufficient dielectric breakdown voltage of the shielding portions by constituting the shielding portions with a Co-based material. Namely, the lower shield film is formed of a 2-ply composite film wherein the film (12′) of the lower shield film which is disposed contacting with the lower gap insulation film (13) is constituted by an amorphous soft magnetic film, while the film (12) which is disposed away from the lower gap insulation film is constituted by a crystalline soft magnetic film, thereby making it possible to suppress the fluctuation of read output even if the gap is narrowed without deteriorating the yield relative to the dielectric breakdown.

    摘要: A magnetic head is provided with a magnetoresistive sensor scarcely susceptible to heat and provided with a fixed layer capable of creating a pinned magnetic field of a sufficient intensity. The magnetic head comprises a magnetoresistive effect film having a free layer (21), a fixed layer (105) and an intermediate layer (104), and a pair of electrodes (25a, 25b) for supplying current to the magnetoresistance effect film. The free layer (21) is formed of a ferromagnetic material and the intermediate layer (104) is formed of a nonmagnetic material. The fixed layer (105) has a first ferromagnetic film (22), a second ferromagnetic film (24) and a nonmagnetic film (23) sandwiched between the first and the second ferromagnetic films (22, 24). The second ferromagnetic film (24) farther from the free layer (21) than the first ferromagnetic layer (22) is formed of a material having the property of permanent magnets. The magnetization of the fist ferromagnetic film (22) and that of the second ferromagnetic film (24) are coupled in an antiferromagnetic coupling fashion.

    摘要: A high performance thin film semiconductor device having a heterojunction such as a photoelectric conversion device is disclosed. In accordance with the present invention, the thin film semiconductor device comprises a thin semiconductor layer which forms a heterojunction with a non-single crystal silicon layer or non-single crystal silicon-germanium layer, wherein the valence band discontinuity at the heterointerface arising from the difference in optical energy bandgap is as small as 0.3 eV or less and wherein the thin semiconductor layer has an optical energy bandgap greater than 2.8 eV, so that hole transport performance may not be degraded. Such a thin semiconductor layer may be formed by using silane gas and methane gas with a flow rate ratio greater than 30 at a deposition rate less than 0.5 .ANG./sec.
