20090175683 | Underground Root Margin Even Irregation Apparatus and Method Thereof - Disclosed are an even-irrigation apparatus for an underground root zone and an even-irrigation method using the same for evenly supplying water into the root zone of a variety of crops. The even-irrigation apparatus includes a plurality of irrigators buried in the entire underground root zone, to directly and evenly supply water into the root zone.

A portion of the second gate electrode having the work function lower than that of the first gate electrode is overlapped by the drain region. Accordingly, the gate electrode of the pillar-type FET is formed using a material having a high work function, so that the threshold voltage can be increased and the work function of the portion of the gate electrode overlapped by the drain region can be decreased. Therefore, gate induced drain leakage is reduced, so that off-state leakage current can likewise be greatly reduced. | 10-16-2008 |
