ABSTRACT:
An object of the invention is to provide a transistor in which the channel length of the transistor is changed depending on voltages applied to plural gate electrodes which are dividedly formed, and plural kinds of operation states are attained. In a MOS transistor 31, a second gate electrode 36 is formed via an insulating film 35 on a first gate electrode 34 formed in a region E2. The channel length formed in a semiconductor substrate 32 is determined in accordance with the combination of voltages applied to the first and second gate electrodes 34 and 36. The MOS transistor 31 can operate in either of states of different threshold voltages.
