International ClassesH01L 029/161H01L 027/12 H01L 045/00 Foreign Application Priority Data1989-09-25 JPAbstractA novel concept and structure of a semiconductor circuit are disclosed which utilize the fact that the interaction between the carriers such as electrons and holes supplied in a meso-scopic region and the potential field formed in the meso-scopic region leads to such effects as quantum interference and resonance, with the result that the output intensity is changed.Other References
