摘要:
When input image data is high-resolution data, the input image data is downsampled to low-resolution data. Subsequently, it is judged whether or not the trapping process is performed with respect to an edge extracted based on the image data after the downsampling. When the trapping process is performed, a trap color is determined. Pixel data based on the determined trap color is upsampled based on the resolution of the input image data. Then, the trapping process is performed based on the input image data and the pixel data after the upsampling.

An optical waveguide includes a first waveguide region and a second waveguide region. The first waveguide region includes a first core, a first clad provided around the first core, and a light reflecting surface. The light reflecting surface has at least one function of (i) reflecting light from a longitudinal direction of the first core toward a direction crossing the longitudinal direction and (ii) reflecting light from the crossing direction toward the longitudinal direction of the first core. The second waveguide region continues from the first waveguide region. The second waveguide region that includes a second core, and a second clad provided around the second core. The second core of the second waveguide region is thinner than the first core of the first waveguide region. A total thickness of the second core and the second clad is smaller than that of the first core and the first clad.

An optical sensor includes a light source, a sensing unit, a first optical fiber transmitting light from the light source to the sensing unit, second and third optical fibers transmitting the light from a reflecting surface of the sensing unit to light-receiving portions, and a calculation unit calculating physical quantities from electrical signals from the light-receiving portions. End surfaces of these fibers opposed to the reflecting surface are fixed so that the longitudinal direction thereof and the normal line of the reflecting surface form an angle θ, the second and third optical fibers are parallel to each other, and the fixing angles of the first optical fiber and the second and third optical fibers are symmetric about the normal line. These optical fibers have a single mode in the wavelength of which the optical fibers are used. A depolarizer is interposed between the light source and the first optical fiber.

A method of fabricating a surface emitting semiconductor laser includes the following steps. A first laminate of semiconductor layers and a second laminate of semiconductor layers are formed on a substrate. The first laminate includes a first reflection mirror layer of a first conduction type, an active region, a III-V semiconductor layer containing Al, and a second reflection mirror layer of a second conduction type, the second laminate being used for monitoring and having an oxidizable region. The first and second laminates are etched so as to form mesas on the substrate in which side surface of the III-V semiconductor layer contained in the first laminate is exposed. Oxidization of the III-V semiconductor layer from the side surface is started at an oxidization rate. During oxidization, a reflectance of the second laminate for monitoring or its variation is monitored, and oxidization of the III-V semiconductor layer is terminated after a constant time from a time when the reflectance or its variation reaches a corresponding given value.

A plurality of lasers (having openings 170) are formed at predetermined positions at equal intervals on at least two main scanning lines on a semiconductor substrate 100. The lasers have each a predetermined beam diameter and take different positions in the main scanning direction, thereby providing a two-dimensional surface emitting laser array emitting laser beams through a lens system to form a pixel line with no gap on the main scanning line of an image formation face moving in the sub-scanning direction. The two-dimensional surface emission laser array is used to provide a laser beam scanner, a laser beam recorder, and a laser beam recording method.

The present invention overcomes drawbacks of prior composite sheets consisting of a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric and pulp fibers and provides an inexpensive composite sheet with excellent draping qualities, a nearly fabric-like touch and good usability. According to the present invention, a composite sheet made by entangling a web of thermoplastic filaments with pulp fibers under water stream is creped to increase the elongation in machine direction as high as in cross direction enough to obtain a usability equal to those of fabric wipers.
