    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize a ferroelectric storage read/write memory by providing a ferroelectric substance between, a pair of conductors and setting a sufficient isolation distance for permitting a tunnel current the distance between a pair of conductors. SOLUTION: Two isolation electrodes 1, 2 are interconnected through a region 3 of ferroelectric substance. The isolation electrodes 1, 2 are normally made of a conductive material and have line width of 1-500 nm and thickness of 100-1000 nm. The ferroelectric substance has thickness of about 10 nm or less which permits tunnel effect. Available ferroelectric substance includes barium titanate having Curie point of 120 deg.C, potassium niobate having Curie point of 415 deg.C, triglycine sulfate having Curie point of 49 deg.C, Rochelle salt having Curie point of 23 deg.C, and iron niobate having Curie point of 112 deg.C. Data can be stored by aligning the electric dipole in the ferroelectric layer.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for labelling DNA by providing double-stranded DNA, denaturing a part of the DNA, followed by attaching at least one detectable compound motiety to the denatured part to prevent recrystallization of the part. SOLUTION: This method comprises the steps of providing at least one double-stranded DNA molecule 1, denaturing at least one part of DNA 1, and attaching at least one compound motiety at attaching parts 7, 13, and 15 to the denatured part 3 to prevent recrystallization of the part 3, wherein the compound motiety is bound with inserting compound motiety 5 or 11 which has a detectable part 9 or 17 such as a fluorescent dye. This method is useful for biochemical labelling of DNA molecules.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To manufacture a nanodevice of a nanometer scale by a method wherein inorganic atoms are bonded to specified positions on an organic structure to constitute a product. SOLUTION: An organic structure formed by a method wherein one piece of a nucleotide 31 is made to bond to DNA molecules 17 and 19 comprising one piece of an R loop 27 having nanoparticles 29, which are made to bond to the nucleotide 31 and are used as inorganic atoms, is formed between a first electrode 3 and a second electrode 5. By such organic structure, after a conductive material 35 is plated on DNA molecules 21, which are extended between the electrodes 3 and 5, an electrostatic bond 37 is generated between the material 35 on the DNA particles 21 and the nanoparticles 29. Thereby, a nanodevice, which is used as a device of a nanometer scale, can be manufactured.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an electroconductive polymer structure having a high degree of crystallinity and to provide a method for producing the same. SOLUTION: This structure containing a polycrystalline material containing microcrystals of an electroconductive polymer and precursor thereof, contains amorphous materials of the polymer and the precursor thereof in mediating regions among the microcrystals. By adding an additive such as a plasticizer and a diluent to a solution for forming a polycrystalline material, a high degree of crystallinity is obtained by giving a high mobility to the polymer molecules for associating each other and producing the polymer under a condition for forming a crystalline state. The form of the polycrystalline material can be adjusted so as to modify the characteristics of the material such as a degree of crystallinity, a size of the crystalline particles, a glass transition temperature, a thermal expansion coefficient and an electroconductivity. As opposed to a stretched film having an anisotropic electroconductivity, the polycrystalline material attains an isotropic and high electroconductivity without getting stretched.
