Abstract:
A silicon carbide substrate has a substrate region and a support portion. The substrate region has a first single crystal substrate. The support portion is joined to a first backside surface of the first single crystal. The dislocation density of the first single crystal substrate is lower than the dislocation density of the support portion. At least one of the substrate region and the support portion has voids.
Abstract:
A carbon layer is formed on a first region of a main surface of a material substrate. On the material substrate, first and second single-crystal layers are arranged such that each of a first backside surface of the first single-crystal layer and a second backside surface of the second single-crystal layer has a portion facing a second region of the main surface of the material substrate and such that a gap between a first side surface of the first single-crystal layer and a second side surface of the second single-crystal layer is located over the carbon layer. By heating the material substrate and the first and second single-crystal layers, a base substrate connected to each of the first and second backside surfaces is formed. In this way, voids can be prevented from being formed in the silicon carbide substrate having such a plurality of single-crystal layers.
Abstract:
An object is to provide a semiconductor device with a novel structure in which stored data can be held even when power is not supplied, and the number of times of writing is not limited. The semiconductor device is formed using a wide gap semiconductor and includes a potential change circuit which selectively applies a potential either equal to or different from a potential of a bit line to a source line. Thus, power consumption of the semiconductor device can be sufficiently reduced.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device with a novel structure in which stored data can be held even when power is not supplied and there is no limitation on the number of times of writing. In the semiconductor device, a plurality of memory cells each including a first transistor, a second transistor, and a capacitor is provided in matrix and a wiring (also called a bit line) for connecting one memory cell to another memory cell and a source or drain electrode of the first transistor are electrically connected to each other through a source or drain electrode of the second transistor. Accordingly, the number of wirings can be smaller than that in the case where the source or drain electrode of the first transistor and the source or drain electrode of the second transistor are connected to different wirings. Thus, the degree of integration of the semiconductor device can be increased.
Abstract:
A silicon carbide substrate has a first layer facing a semiconductor layer and a second layer stacked on the first layer. Dislocation density of the second layer is higher than dislocation density of the first layer. Thus, quantum efficiency and power efficiency of a light-emitting device can both be high.

A claw pole type motor includes a rotor having a magnet arranged on an outer circumferential surface thereof and a stator including an annular iron core and an annular coil received within the iron core. The iron core includes a yoke portion opened in an inner circumferential surface opposite to the rotor, a plurality of upper claw-shaped magnetic poles and a plurality of lower claw-shaped magnetic poles which are arranged along an inner circumferential surface of the annular coil. The upper/lower claw-shaped magnetic poles are curved to extend axially downwardly/upwardly from an upper/lower inner edge of the yoke portion, respectively. The upper and the low claw-shaped magnetic poles are alternately arranged along a circumferential direction of the iron core. The yoke portion has cutout portions formed in non-magnetic path regions which do not include magnetic paths through which magnetic flux flows between neighboring claw-shaped magnetic poles across the annular coil.
