摘要:
A semiconductor memory device which more reliably retains electrons trapped in its charge-trapping regions. A high-dielectric gate insulating film is grown on a semiconductor substrate. This gate insulating film is composed of first and second oxides, where the second oxide has a smaller bandgap than that of the first oxide and is scattered in dot-like form, surrounded by the first oxide. The memory cell is programmed by injecting electrons into a local potential minimum that is produced due to the bandgap difference between the phase-separated first and second oxides.

A semiconductor device in which the insulation characteristics of an insulating film of multilayer structure including a lower-layer insulating film and a high-dielectric-constant film formed on the lower-layer insulating film are ensured, and a method for fabricating such a semiconductor device. A silicon oxide film or a silicon oxynitride film is formed on a semiconductor substrate as a lower-layer insulating film and part of the lower-layer insulating film is removed. Then a high-dielectric-constant film the dielectric constant of which is higher than that of the lower-layer insulating film is formed on the exposed semiconductor substrate and the lower-layer insulating film. If the lower-layer insulating film is a silicon oxide film, then a metallic compound not including chlorine is used for forming this high-dielectric-constant film. If the lower-layer insulating film is a silicon oxynitride film, then a metallic chloride can be used for forming this high-dielectric-constant film.

The semiconductor device comprises an intermediate layer formed on a semiconductor substrate 6, the intermediate layer 12 being formed of an oxide containing a first element which is either of a III group element and a V group element, an insulation film formed on the intermediate layer, the insulation film being formed of an oxide of a second element which is the other of the III group element and the V group element, and an electrode 16 formed on the insulation film. Because the intermediate layer of the oxide containing the first element is formed, even when the gate insulation film is formed of Al2O3 or others, the interface state density can be depressed to be low. Thus, the semiconductor device can have low interface state density and small flat band voltage shift even when Al2O3, etc. is used as a material of the insulation film.

A conductive bus bar includes a first plate-shaped portion extending in a first direction and a second plate-shaped portion continued from the first portion and extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The second plate-shaped portion has a first main face which faces the first plate-shaped portion, a second main face opposite to the first main face, and side faces connecting the first main face and the second main face. A press-contact portion is formed in the second plate-shaped portion, to which an electric wire is press-fitted. An insulative mount includes a mount face, on which the first plate-shaped portion is disposed, and a wall member extending in the second direction to support the second main face of the second plate-shaped portion. A pair of rib members are extended from the wall member to support the side faces of the second plate-shaped portion.
摘要:
An active layer having a predetermined effective band gap, a predetermined effective refractive index, and a predetermined thickness is sandwiched between a first clad layer and a second clad layer. Each of the clad layers has an effective band gap wider than that of the active layer, an effective refractive index lower than that of the active layer, and a predetermined thickness. On the first clad layer, there is disposed a first stack structure doped to a first conductivity type, which alternately includes a layer of a high refractive index and a layer of a low refractive index, and has a discontinuity of a band of the first conductivity type made quite smaller than that of a band of a second conduction type. On the second clad layer, there is disposed a second stack structure doped to the second conductivity type, which alternately includes a layer of a high refractive index and a layer of a low refractive index, and has a discontinuity of a band of the second conductivity type made quite smaller than that of the band of the first conductivity type. Each of the first and second stack structures serves as an optical filter and also forms a low-resistance conduction path.

In an optosemiconductor device including a superlattice configuration (TBQ) of first and second quantum well layers and a potential barrier therebetween, photo-excited carriers are formed in the first quantum well layer and are tunnelled through the potential barrier toward the second quantum well layer, so that the tunneled carriers are accumulated in the second quantum well layer. An electric field is applied to the superlattice configuration to expel the tunneled carriers from the second quantum well layer.
