Abstract:
A cathode ray tube includes a face plate on which are formed a first transparent layer which has a high refractive index and is conductive and a second transparent layer which has a low refractive index. Thereby, the reflectance of the outer surface of the face plate can be made low and, at the same time, an antistatic property can be obtained.
Abstract:
A light absorbing layer, and a window layer formed thereon constitutes a first conduction-type semiconductor layer. In a part of this first conduction-type semiconductor layer there is provided a second conduction-type region extending to the light absorbing layer through the window layer. A part of the window layer around the second conduction region is selectively removed. Consequently even when light intended to enter a light detecting region is incident outside of the light detecting region, most of the carriers generated there are recombined at a surface level of the light absorbing layer before diffusing in a depletion layer. This light detecting device therefor does not substantially detect sensitivity to light incident outside the light detecting region.

Abstract:
A color cathode ray tube has a coating film formed over an outer surface of a face plate. The coating film prevents a charge-up phenomenon of the face plate and also has a function for improving a contrast performance of the color cathode ray tube. The coating film is composed of a polymer of silicon alkoxide, translucent conductive particles and plural types of dyes or pigments. The absorption peak of the main absorption band of the coating film is set in the range between the main spectrum wavelength of 570 nm of the green luminescence and the main spectrum wavelength of 610 nm of the red luminescence of the color cathode ray tube. The absorption peak of the sub absorption band of the coating film is in at least one of a first range between a wavelength of 380 nm and a wavelength of 420 nm and a second range between a wavelength of 470 nm and a wavelength of 510 nm.
Abstract:
Arithmetic operations of an ignition timing are carried out in an ignition timing operation circuit on the basis of an output signal from a signal generating means which generates signals for establishing the ignition timing to thereby obtain an advance angle characteristic in accordance with the number of revolution of the engine, and, at the same time, this increase or decrease in the number of revolution of the engine is converted to an increase or decrease in an electric potential, and then, by detecting a changing quantity per unit time of this electric potential and, when the changing quantity takes a value higher than a predetermined value, the ignition timing is further advanced or delayed to the ignition timing obtained from the result of the arithmetic operations in the abovementioned ignition timing operation circuit.
