Abstract
A semiconductor device exploiting a quantum interference effect is disclosed. The device comprises: a rod-shaped semiconductor portion extending in one direction; a prism-shaped semiconductor portion covering side faces of the rod-shaped semiconductor portion and extending in the one direction; and one or more source electrodes and one or more drain electrodes electrically connected to opposite ends of the prism-shaped semiconductor portion. Channels extend in the one direction in the prism-shaped semiconductor portion along a plurality of sides of side faces thereof. Alternatively, the prism-shaped semiconductor portion has a twisted structure about an axis extending in the one direction, and channels each having a twisted structure extend in the one direction in the prism-shaped semiconductor portion along a plurality of sides of side faces thereof.
