    摘要: In an electric potential generating device, a source of an N type MIS transistor is mutually connected to that of a P type MIS transistor and also connected to an output terminal. A drain of an N type MIS transistor 54 is connected to a power supply voltage supply portion for supplying power supply voltage VDD, and a drain of the P type MIS transistor is connected to a ground. In addition, a substrate potential of the N type MIS transistor is a ground voltage VSS, and that of a P type MIS transistor 56 is the power supply voltage VDD. Thus, it is constituted as a source follower circuit for taking output out of the source. It is possible, by utilizing this electric potential generating device, to obtain a logic transformation circuit for stably switching between NOR operation and NAND operation.

    摘要: A semiconductor device includes: a control-voltage supply unit 110; an MOS transistor including a gate electrode 109 and drain and source regions 103a and 103b; a dielectric capacitor 104; and a resistor 106. The dielectric capacitor 104 and the resistor 106 are disposed in parallel and interposed between the gate electrode 109 and the control-voltage supply unit 110. With this structure, a charge is accumulated in each of an intermediate electrode of the dielectric capacitor 104 and the gate electrode 109 upon the application of a voltage, thereby varying a threshold value of the MOS transistor. In this manner, the history of input signals can be stored as a variation in a drain current in the MOS transistor, thus allowing multilevel information to be held.

    摘要: A semiconductor substrate is placed within a housing. By supplying organometallic complexes and carbon dioxide in a supercritical state into the housing, a BST thin film is formed on a platinum thin film, while at the same time, carbon compounds, which are produced when the BST thin film is formed, are removed. The solubility of carbon compounds in the supercritical carbon dioxide is very high, and yet the viscosity of the supercritical carbon dioxide is low. Accordingly, the carbon compounds are removable efficiently from the BST thin film. An oxide or nitride film may also be formed by performing oxidation or nitriding at a low temperature using water in a supercritical or subcritical state, for example.
