This invention provides a substrate concentration measuring method for measuring a concentration of a substrate included in a specimen based on an output for measurement from an enzyme electrode when the enzyme electrode and the substrate are reacted with each other, the substrate concentration is calculated using an output for correction from the enzyme electrode obtained when a reference solution whose substrate concentration is known and the enzyme electrode are reacted with each other before or after the enzyme electrode and the substrate are reacted with each other. For example, the output for correction is measured by each specimen. In this method, the substrate concentration may be calculated using the output for correction for the specimen to be measured and an output for correction corresponding to the at least one other specimen and measured prior to the output for correction.

A first optical waveguide guides a pumping light emitted from a semiconductor laser. A second optical waveguide absorbs the pumping light and emits a spontaneous emission light having a wavelength longer than that of the pumping light. A third optical waveguide guides a light output from the second optical waveguide to outside. A wavelength selecting element is provided between the second optical waveguide and the third optical waveguide, across which a resonator is formed between the semiconductor laser side and an output side to outside. A wavelength of a laser light emitted from the resonator is set by controlling length of the second optical waveguide.

A method and a device for measuring the dimensions of a constant velocity joint. In the method, for example, the cylindrical part of an outer member with a specified offset value is supported on the support part of a dimension measuring device for the outer member. On the other hand, a holding bar is inserted into a recessed part formed in the shaft part of the outer member. In this case, balls installed at the tip of the support part are inserted into the ball grooves of the cylindrical part. In this state, a rotating member is rotated to bring a probe into contact with the inside wall of the cylindrical part. The measurement core of a micro gauge is displaced according to the displacement of the probe, and the amount of the displacement thereof is displayed as the amount of the variation of the needle of the micro gauge.

A HDTMOS includes a Si substrate, a buried oxide film and a semiconductor layer. The semiconductor layer includes an upper Si film, an epitaxially grown Si buffer layer, an epitaxially grown SiGe film, and an epitaxially grown Si film. Furthermore, the HDTMOS includes an n-type high concentration Si body region, an n− Si region, a SiGe channel region containing n-type low concentration impurities, an n-type low concentration Si cap layer, and a contact which is a conductor member for electrically connecting the gate electrode and the Si body region. The present invention extends the operation range while keeping the threshold voltage small by using, for the channel layer, a material having a smaller potential at the band edge where carriers travel than that of a material constituting the body region.
