It is an object of the present invention to provide a CMOS circuit implemented using four-terminal double-insulated-gate field-effect transistors, in which the problems described above can be overcome. Another object of the present invention is to reduce power consumption in a circuit unit that is in an idle state or ready state, i.e., to reduce static power consumption. The two gate electrodes of a P-type four-terminal double-insulated-gate field-effect transistor are electrically connected to each other and are electrically connected to one of the gate electrodes of an N-type four-terminal double-insulated-gate field-effect transistor, whereby an input terminal of a CMOS circuit is formed, and a threshold voltage of the N-type four-terminal double-insulated-gate field-effect transistor is controlled by controlling a potential of the other gate of the N-type four-terminal double-insulated-gate field-effect transistor.

A dual-gate field effect transistor includes a substrate 1, a source 7-1, a drain 7-2, a vertical channel 5 provided between the source and the drain as rising from the substrate, a pair of gate insulation films 6-1 and 6-2 sandwiching the channel from a direction orthogonal to a carrier-running direction in the channel and a pair of gate electrodes 3-1 and 3-2 facing the vertical channel 5, respectively, via the pair of gate insulation films 6-1 and 6-2, wherein the pair of insulation films have different thicknesses t1 and t2. It is also possible that the pair of gate insulation films 6-1 and 6-2 have different permittivities ε1 and ε2 and that the pair of gate electrodes have different work functions Φ1 and Φ2. Thus, it is possible to set the threshold voltage of the dual-gate field effect transistor to a desired value when fabricating it. Furthermore, it is possible to avoid the problem of an increase in subthreshold slope that occurs in the prior art.
