  • Publication number: 20060080396
    Abstract: In the present invention, processing for a service such as reducing the charges placed on electronic mail transmitted and received within a predetermined group is performed efficiently. An electronic mail charging system comprises: a user database storing information specifying a mobile communication terminal in association with the group ID of a group to which the terminal belongs; an ID comparison unit for detecting the transmission of an electronic mail from a transmission terminal to a reception terminal, obtaining information specifying the transmission terminal and reception terminal from the electronic mail, referring to the user database on the basis of this information, and comparing the group ID corresponding to the transmission terminal with the group ID corresponding to the reception terminal; and a charging server for generating charging information in order to place charges on the transmitted electronic mail on the basis of the result of this comparison.

  • Patent number: 6847074
    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device according to the present invention includes a memory cell capacitor for storing data thereon. The capacitor is made up of a first electrode connected to a contact plug, a second electrode and a capacitive insulating film interposed between the first and second electrodes. The first electrode includes a first barrier film in contact with the contact plug and a second barrier film, which is formed on the first barrier film and prevents the diffusion of oxygen. The second barrier film covers the upper and side faces of the first barrier film.

  • Patent number: 6126752
    Abstract: A semiconductor device comprising an integrated circuit and a capacitor. In this capacitor, a bottom electrode, a dielectric film and a top electrode are formed, independently of the integrated circuit, on the interlayer insulating film, and the top electrode and bottom electrode are connected with metal interconnections through contact holes opened in the protective film for protecting the surface of the capacitor. In this constitution, either the top electrode or the bottom electrode is connected the bias line of the integrated circuit, and the other is connected to the ground line, so that extraneous emission may be reduced without having to connect the capacitor outside.

  • Patent number: 5661319
    Abstract: This is a semiconductor device having an integrated circuit and a capacitor formed on a semiconductor substrate. The capacitor comprises a bottom electrode serving also as a part of a diffusion layer of the integrated circuit, a dielectric film being formed on the bottom electrode, and a top electrode of a conductive film being formed on the dielectric film. In particular, it is preferred to form the dielectric film in two layers of dielectric film, and compose the dielectric film contacting with the bottom electrode of a dielectric material in a composition possessing an excess of a metal element than the stoichiometric composition.
