The present invention provides a method of producing metallic iron nuggets with a high yield and good productivity, and more particularly a method which can produce metallic iron nuggets which have a high Fe purity and are excellent in transporting and handling due to a large grain diameter with a high yield and good productivity, when they are produced by reducing and melting raw material containing iron oxide such as iron ore and carbonaceous reducing agent such as coke. The method of producing metallic iron nuggets comprises steps of: heating raw material containing carbonaceous reducing agent and iron oxide-containing material in a reducing/melting furnace, reducing iron oxide in the raw material, and then heating and melting the metallic iron produced by the reduction and simultaneously making it coalesce while separating the metallic iron nuggets from slag components characterized in that the fixed carbon content ratio as the carbonaceous reducing agent is at least 73% and the volatile matter content in the raw material is not more than 3.9% are used, and the mixing content of carbonaceous reducing agent is restrained to be not more than 45% in relation to the iron oxide components, which is contained in the iron oxide-containing material of the raw material.

A nonvolatile semiconductor memory recovers variation in the threshold of a memory cell due to disturbance related to a word line. The nonvolatile memory continuously performs many writing operations without carrying out single-sector erasing after each writing operation, performing the additional writing operations quicker than the usual writing operation, and lightening the burden imposed on software for use in additional writing. The data stored in a designated sector is read out before being saved in a register, and the selected sector is subjected to single-sector erasing when a predetermined command is given. Then write expected value data is formed from the saved data and data to be additionally written, completing the writing operation.

In charging a fluid molding material in an elastic molding die composed of a die body having an opening and a die support portion extending from the opening to the outside by pouring the molding material from the opening into time die body, the molding material in an amount of 1/5 to 3/5 of a volume of the die body is first charged, a molding material-charged portion of the die body is then crumpled or pinched, and then the entire die body is filled up with the molding material. The crumpling or pinching operation is achieved by such means as a blade shutter, pressing plates, air bags, or passing between two plates or conveyor belts, thereby charging the fluid molding material in the die body of the elastic-molding die without occurrence of air voids.

An arrangement is provided to decrease the junction degradation caused by the leakage current at a p-n junction in semiconductor devices. This arrangement can be useful for a variety of devices, and is especially effective for reducing junction degradation at the source or drain region of a MOSFET. To achieve such a reduction, a p-n junction layer is provided at a p-n junction of a semiconductor region and a substrate. Carrier concentration distributions of a p-type layer and an n-type layer of the p-n junction layer are set so that an electric field which tends to be increased by a local electric field enhancement in a depletion layer of the p-n junction due to a precipitate introduced from a semiconductor surface will not exceed 1 MV/cm. When the depth of a depletion layer of the p-type layer or the n-type layer is referred to as Xp or Xn, and the slope of the carrier concentration, Ap or An, the following relation is provided:4.3.times.10.sup.12 (/cm.sup.2).gtoreq.An.multidot.Xn.sup.2 =Ap.multidot.Xp.sup.2Preferably, the p-n junction layer is formed under a contact hole of a source or drain region if the device in question is a MOSFET. As a result of using this arrangement, the leakage current caused by a local Zener effect decreases so that the electric field locally increased by the precipitate will not be greater than 1 MV/cm.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a dynamic type RAM and, more particularly, to a dynamic type RAM formed using one-element type dynamic memory cells each comprised of a data storing capacitor and an address selecting MOSFET. Divided word lines are arranged such that one divided word line intersects another at a point of discontinuity of the other divided word line adjacent to a joint of the one divided word line to the corresponding word line. This prevents generation of an array noise due to coupling capacitances, and thus improves the read margin.
