    摘要: A heterojunction bipolar transistor is fabricated by stacking a Si collector layer, a SiGeC base layer and a Si emitter layer in this order. By making the amount of a lattice strain in the SiGeC base layer on the Si collector layer 1.0% or less, the band gap can be narrower than the band gap of the conventional practical SiGe (the Ge content is about 10%), and good crystalline can be maintained after a heat treatment. As a result, a narrow band gap base with no practical inconvenience can be realized.

    摘要: A semiconductor device comprises an Si substrate, an isolation insulating film formed on the Si substrate, an Si layer formed on the Si substrate, a gate oxide film formed on the Si layer, a gate electrode formed on the gate oxide film, a sidewall formed on the side face of the gate electrode, a gate silicide film formed on the gate electrode, source and drain regions formed at both the sides of the gate electrode and including a part of the Si layer, and a silicide film formed on the source and drain regions. Because the source and drain regions are formed on a layer-insulating film so as to be overlayed, it is possible to decrease the active region and cell area of a device. Thereby, a high-speed operation and high integration can be realized.

    摘要: A variable capacitor includes an N+ layer including a variable capacitance region, a P+ layer epitaxially grown on the N+ layer and formed from a SiGe film and a Si film, and a P-type electrode. An NPN-HBT (Hetero-junction Bipolar Transistor) includes a collector diffusion layer formed simultaneously with the N+ layer of the variable capacitor, a collector layer, and a Si/SiGe layer epitaxially grown simultaneously with the P+ layer of the variable capacitor. Since a depletion layer formed in a PN junction of the variable capacitor can extend entirely across the N+ layer, reduction in variation range of the capacitance can be suppressed.

    摘要: A driving method for driving a variable resistance element and a nonvolatile memory device, which achieves stable storage operation. In a low resistance write process, a low resistance writing voltage pulse having the negative polarity is applied once to a variable resistance layer included in a variable resistance element while in a high resistance write process, a high resistance writing voltage pulse having the positive polarity is applied more than twice to the same variable resistance layer. Here, when a voltage value of one of the high resistance writing voltage pulses is VH1 and a voltage value of the other high resistance writing voltage pulse applied subsequently is VH2, VH1>VH2 is satisfied.
