    摘要: A process for producing a nonvolatile semiconductor memory having a mixed or laminated structure of a hardly oxidizable material composed of a hardly oxidizable element having Gibbs' free energy for forming oxide higher than that of Si under the same temperature condition at 1 atm and in temperature range of 0° C. to 1,200° C. and an oxide of an easily oxidizable material composed of an element having Gibbs' free energy for forming oxide lower than that of Si under the same temperature condition at 1 atm in the temperature range and Si. The process includes forming a portion of the hardly oxidizable material and a portion of the oxide by physical forming method and carrying out heat treatment in oxidizing and reducing gas mixture. The ratio of the gases and the temperature are controlled so that the hardly oxidizable material is reduced and the oxide is oxidized in the temperature range.

    摘要: This disclosure provides an antenna apparatus in which stable antenna characteristics are maintained by detecting surrounding conditions that affect the antenna characteristics and appropriately compensating the antenna characteristics. More specifically, when surrounding condition such as a human body (e.g., a palm or fingers) approaches and enters an electric field of a pseudo dipole formed by an antenna element electrode, a stray capacitance is sensed and stable antenna characteristics are maintained by appropriately controlling an antenna matching circuit to compensate for a change in the antenna characteristics due to the approach of the surrounding condition.
