Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, a first insulating film formed on an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate in an outer peripheral region so as to surround a cell region in plan view, and a resistive element formed on the first insulating film so as to surround the cell region in plan view. A second insulating film having a thickness thinner than that of the first insulating film is formed on the upper surface of the semiconductor substrate in the outer peripheral region. A dummy pattern is formed from a portion over the second insulating film to a portion over the first insulating film so as to cover a step occurring between the second insulating film and the first insulating film.

Abstract: An information processing method, performed by a computer, includes: obtaining second situational information related to a situation of at least one of a vehicle or surroundings of the vehicle at a second time point subsequent to a first time point; determining recommended content related to vehicle monitoring recommended to a second monitoring agent by inputting the second situational information to a trained model obtained by machine learning in which first situational information and a first monitoring result which is a result of monitoring by a first monitoring agent based on the first situational information are used, the first situational information being related to a situation of at least one of the vehicle or the surroundings of the vehicle at the first time point; generating presentation information for vehicle monitoring based on the recommended content determined; and causing a presentation device to output the presentation information.

Abstract: Provided is a method for forming a TiO2—SiO2 laminated layer for suppressing a crystallization of TiO2 layer. In one embodiment, a TiO2—SiO2 laminated layer may be formed by alternately forming and stacking a TiO2 layer and a SiO2 layer by plasma atomic layer deposition. A TiO2—SiO2 laminated layer has a high film strength compared to the conventional SiO2 layer and a crystallization of TiO2 layer is suppressed by forming a laminated layer and controlling a cycle ratio of the step of forming a TiO2 layer to the step of forming a SiO2 layer.
