Abstract:
An optical wave guide comprises a cylindrical body which is made of a first transparent dielectric, and a second transparent dielectric which is concentrically formed on the outer periphery of the cylindrical body and which has an index of refraction lower than that of the first dielectric, the central part of the wave guide being hollow.
Abstract:
A suction mold has a central suction chamber having a flat shaping surface area and a pair of opposite side suction chambers disposed one on each side of the central suction chamber and having respective curved shaping surface areas. First, a vacuum is developed in the central suction chamber to attract a central area of the sheet of glass against the flat shaping surface area thereof, and then a vacuum is developed in the opposite side suction chambers to attract opposite side areas of the sheet of glass respectively against the curved shaping surface areas.

A wiring base made from an electrical insulating material and having a plurality of wing sections radially protruding against the central axis thereof functioning as a rotation axis in a wiring work with electric wire grooves each for accommodating therein an electric wire provided in the substantially concentric form, a wire-wound member production method, wire-wound member, and an electrical connection box using the wire-wound member therein.
Abstract:
A rotary connector configured so as to enable extension or contraction of a cable transmitting electrical signals etc. by connecting a spirally wound flat cable between two cable parts and making the spirally wound flat cable wind or unwind using a rotary body and a fixed body, more particularly a rotary connector able to protect the flat cable from fusing when an overcurrent flows. The plus side connection portion of connection portions between conductors of a flat cable and an outer conductor (cable) electrically connects the conductors of the flat cable and the outer conductor through members having a fuse function. When a short-circuit occurs in the circuit including the flat cable and the outer conductor, the member having a fuse function fuses first so as to prevent the flat cable from heating and fusing.
Abstract:
A silicon oxide film and a polysilicon film are formed on a silicon substrate and are selectively etched to form a contact hole in a region where an emitter is to be formed. A polysilicon film is laid on the substrate and two polysilicon films are patterned to form an emitter electrode and a gate electrode made of the two polysilicon films which are doped with arsenic. The arsenic is diffused from the polysilicon films of the emitter electrode into the silicon substrate to form an N.sup.+ emitter layer which has a high concentration and is shallow. Consequently, the contamination of a gate insulator film can be prevented from occurring and a bipolar transistor having high performance, for example, a high current amplification factor or the like can be formed.
Abstract:
An electrical connection box having heat generating electrical parts contained therein includes an upper case, a case body, and a lower case. The case body has a top surface on which numerous concave grooves are formed in a matrix shape, and at least one of the concave grooves receives a cooling device therein in such a manner that a heat absorbing side of the cooling device is positioned inside the electrical connection box and a heat radiating side of the cooling device is located outside of the electrical connection box. Alternatively, the case body may include numerous attaching holes formed in a thickness direction of the case body or in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the case body, and at least one of the attaching holes receives a cooling device therein in such a manner that a heat absorbing side of the cooling device is positioned inside the electrical connection box and a heat radiating side of the cooling device is located outside of the electrical connection box. A position of the cooling device is capable of being changed in accordance with given mounting positions of the heat generating electrical parts.
Abstract:
A silicon oxide film as a dielectric film and a silicon nitride film or a polysilicon film as a protection film for the silicon oxide film are formed on a silicon substrate. After the two films are selectively etched to form contact holes of a bipolar transistor, a polysilicon film as a conductive film is laid on the entire substrate and selectively etched to form electrodes. In a MIS transistor, the protection film of the silicon nitride film serves as a gate insulator film and the protection film of the polysilicon film serves as a gate electrode. Accordingly, contamination to the gate insulator film at formation of contact holes of the bipolar transistor is prevented, and an excellent semiconductor with Bi-MOS structure is manufactured with low cost.

The semiconductor device can achieve a smaller cell size, a decrease in parasitic capacitance and an increase in operating speed.
