The blood flow is examined by making multifractal analysis of a blood flow velocity distribution in a vascular network and detecting a deviation of the blood flow velocity distribution from the multifractal distribution. The blood flow velocity distribution is provided as an image by irradiating laser light to the vascular network, converging, by an imaging lens, scattered laser light rays by blood cells in the blood flowing through blood vessels, detecting, by a photodetector, a speckle pattern produced owing to random interference between the scattered laser light rays and calculating the rate of change with time lapse of each speckle in the speckle pattern.

A scanning probe microscope probe is produced by depositing a raw-material film on the surface of a cone made of Si, etc. and growing a needle-like crystal by using the raw-material film by irradiating an energy beam to a point on the cone at a predetermined distance along the side surface from the cone tip under such conditions as not to melt the cone. Also, a charge density wave quantum phase microscope is provided which uses a probe made of a charge density wave crystal. Also, a charge density wave quantum interferometer is provided which uses the needle-like crystal formed from the charge density wave crystal. Also, the scanning probe microscope probe is formed from a pressure-induced superconducting substance.

In the present invention, an EL element section (1) includes a plurality of arranged cells, each including a thin film EL element formed so as to emit white light, and a like number of predetermined-color filters (2) formed on the surface of the EL element section and corresponding to the cells such that each cell is caused to emit light in accordance with image information and the emitted light is output through the corresponding color filter to color display purposes. Thus, a very thin color display apparatus is provided in which contrast is good and the dependency of the luminance on the visual sensation is also good. The thin film EL element according to the present invention uses a luminous layer of zinc sulphide containing nitrogen, so that transitional luminescence occurs among a plurality of levels, and hence rays of light having various wavelengths are emitted to thereby provide white light containing three primary colors.

The present invention provides a nanostructure made of V group transition metal dichalcogenide such as NbSe2 and a method for preparing such a nanostructure. A nanofiber and nanotube comprising crystals of V group transition metal dichalcogenide such as NbSe2 or TaS2 have electric properties identical to those of a bulk single crystal. The preparation method is as follows: high-purity Nb and Se which are starting materials and which are mixed in a stoichiometric ratio are allowed to react with each other at 800° C. or less in a vacuum with a temperature gradient of 1 k/cm. In a method for preparing nanofibers or nanotubes from NbSe2 that is a starting material by a chemical transport process using a iodine acting as a medium, if C60 acting as a promoter is used, nuclei for forming the nanofibers or the nanotubes can be efficiently produced. Initial nanoparticles surrounding a C60 molecule form nanorings, which grow into the nanotubes. Other nanoparticles surrounding no C60 molecule grow into the nanofibers. The nanofibers prepared as described above have a diameter of 150 nm and a length of 10 μm.

Disclosed is a transition-metal chalcogenide crystal having a topological configuration/structure. A micro-droplet of a chalcogen element, such as S, Se or Te, is condensed and circulated in suspended form in an atmosphere containing a Group IVb, Vb or VI transition metal element, such as Nb, Ta, Zr, Ti, Hf or W, together with the chalcogen element. Then, micro-whiskers of a transition metal chalcogenide formed in the atmosphere are attached onto a surface of the chalcogen-element micro-droplet by the action of a surface tension of the micro-droplet, and grown as a loop-shaped crystal wound around the surface of the micro-droplet to obtain a loop-shaped crystal having a twist of 0, π or 2 π. The crystal has a ribbon-like open or closed loop configuration. The transition-metal chalcogenide crystal with the topological loop-shaped microstructure can exhibit original properties peculiar to each transition-metal chalcogenide, and has applicability, for example, to a quantum device, such as SQUID.

摘要:
A method of fabricating a thin-film EL device comprising the steps of sequentially forming and stacking a first electrically conductive layer of first electrodes, a first insulating layer, a luminous layer, a second insulating layer and a second electrically conductive layer of second electrodes; previously forming a pattern of the first conductive layer all over a zone for formation of the first electrodes and a zone for formation of electrode terminals; and immersing it into a plating solution to selectively form a terminal pattern only on the first conductive layer, whereby the need for pattern aligning operation can be eliminated, only immersion of it into the plating solution enables easy formation of the precise terminal pattern without providing any damage to the elements of the EL device, and the obtained device can maintain its stable characteristics for a long period of time.
