Abstract: To provide a semiconductor device having improved performance while improving the throughput in the manufacturing steps of the semiconductor device. An insulating film portion comprised of first, second, third, fourth, and fifth insulating films is formed on a semiconductor substrate. The second insulating film is a first charge storage film and the fourth insulating film is a second charge storage film. The first charge storage film contains silicon and nitrogen; the third insulating film contains silicon and oxygen; and the second charge storage film contains silicon and nitrogen. The thickness of the third insulating film is smaller than that of the first charge storage film and the thickness of the second charge storage film is greater than that of the first charge storage film. The third insulating film is formed by treating the upper surface of the first charge storage film with a water-containing treatment liquid.

Abstract: Systems and methods for operating in connection with mobile devices are described. The mobile devices may move between online and offline areas. In some instances, a prediction may be made as to when a mobile device will enter an offline area. The prediction may be based on sensor information. Data or a key may be transferred to the mobile device prior to entering the offline area.

Abstract: To reduce power consumption for communication operation wherein a client terminal at the time of offline searches a base station or access point. A server uses a communication information predicting algorithm to predict a location or time whereby the server becomes an offline state over a movement route of a client terminal, and a location or time whereby the server returns to an online state, and informs to the client terminal. The client terminal suspends a communication function when reaching the informed offline predicted location or time. The client terminal at the time of offline determines that the current location or time has reached an online return predicted location or time using location recognition or point-in-time recognition, and restores the communication function.

Abstract: Processing of memory cells forming a nonvolatile memory in a semiconductor device. A second polysilicon film is formed in such a manner as to cover a first polysilicon film and a dummy gate electrode. Thus, the second polysilicon film is formed reflecting the shapes of a step difference portion and a gap groove. Particularly, in the second polysilicon film covering the gap groove, a concave part is formed. Subsequently, over the second polysilicon film, an antireflection film is formed. Thus, the antireflection film having high flowability flows from the higher region to the lower region of the step difference portion, but is stored in a sufficient amount in the concave part. Accordingly, the antireflection film is supplied from the concave part so as to compensate for the amount of the antireflection film to flow out therefrom.
