摘要:
A sputter target is made of a Ti—Al alloy containing Al in the range of 1 to 30 atm %. In the Ti—Al alloy constituting the sputter target, Al exists in at least one of a solid solution state in Ti and a state in which Al forms an intermetallic compound with Ti, and variation in Al content in the entire target is limited within 10%. Furthermore, an average crystal grain diameter of the Ti—Al alloy is 500 &mgr;m or less, and variation in crystal grain diameter in the entire target is limited within 30%. A Ti—Al—N film as a barrier film is formed by using the sputter target made of the Ti—Al alloy as described above. An electronic component includes a barrier film formed on a semiconductor substrate.

According to this invention, a digital key telephone system connected to an analog public network NW having a function of transmitting a ringing signal including identification information of a calling line through a subscriber line (CO line), accommodating a plurality of extension lines each connected to a digital key telephone (DKT) 2 or a standard telephone (STT) 4 as an extension terminal, and having a function of switching and connecting the subscriber line to the plurality of extension lines or the extension lines to each other includes a called party storage means storing, in advance, information representing the correlation between the calling line and the extension terminals 2 and 4 as a called terminal. When a ringing signal arrives from the analog communication network NW, calling line identification information (caller ID) contained in the ringing signal is detected by a calling line identification information interface unit (RCIU) 12. A control unit (RCTU) 16 determines the called extension terminal on the basis of the detected caller ID and the information stored in the storage means, so the extension terminal receives the call from the digital key telephone interface unit (RDKU) 13 or a standard telephone interface unit (RSTU) 15.

A disk apparatus which can prevent a disk from being damaged when a shock is applied to the disk apparatus is provided. A disk is rotatably supported in a space formed between a tray and a cover when the disk is loaded in the disk apparatus. A contacting member is provided in the space so that the contacting member contacts an outermost annular area of a surface of the disk when the disk is warped. The outermost annular area is a non-recordable area which is adjacent to a rim of the disk.

摘要:
To produce a substrate for information recording media, a substrate consisting essentially of glass for information recording media is subjected to treatment for retarding the extract of the glass component from the substrate by contacting it with a molten salt that contains at least one of hydrogensulfates and pyrosulfates, while being subjected to additional treatment for retarding the crystallization of the molten salt. In the method, preferably, the glass component to be prevented from being extracted from the substrate is a group of alkali ions, and the treatment for retarding the crystallization of the molten salt is water addition treatment of any one of treatment of supplying water to the molten salt or treatment of compensating for water being away from the molten salt.

In an internal combustion engine equipped with an adsorbent for adsorbing unburned fuel components, the amount of unburned fuel components adsorbed to the adsorbent is determined with good precision. The amount of fuel components adhered in a passage that is located upstream of the adsorbent and that conducts fuel components is determined. By taking into consideration the determined amount of adhered fuel components, the amount of fuel components adsorbed to the adsorbent is determined.
