Abstract:
The invention provides an SiC semiconductor element having fewer interface defects at the interface between the SiC and the insulating film of the SiC semiconductor, as well as improved channel mobility. The semiconductor element is provided with at least an SiC semiconductor substrate and an insulating film in contact with the substrate, wherein the insulating film is formed on a specific crystal plane of the SiC semiconductor substrate, the specific crystal plane being a plane having an off-angle of 10-20° relative to the {11-20} plane toward the [000-1] direction or at an off-angle of 70-80° relative to the (000-1) plane toward the direction. Through the use of a specific crystal plane unknown in the prior art, interface defects between the SiC semiconductor substrate and the insulating film can be reduced, and channel mobility of the semiconductor element can be improved.
Abstract:
A technology for producing a pig edema disease vaccine at low cost and at high efficiency is developed. Specifically, a gene of a pig edema disease toxin protein (Stx2e protein) is efficiently expressed in plant cells to produce a plant vaccine for pig edema disease at low cost. An Stx2e protein including a secretory signal peptide derived from a plant added at an amino terminus is expressed in cells of a plant such as Lactuca sativa using the 5′-untranslated region of an alcohol dehydrogenase gene (ADH5′UTR) derived from a plant.

Abstract:
A processing unit is provided which executes speech recognition on speech signals captured by a microphone for capturing sounds uttered in an environment. The processing unit has: an initial reflection component extraction portion that extracts initial reflection components by removing diffuse reverberation components from a reverberation pattern of an impulse response generated in the environment; and an acoustic model learning portion that learns an acoustic model for the speech recognition by reflecting the initial reflection components to speech data for learning.
Abstract:
A disclosed molecular communication system includes a molecular transmitter configured to transmit an information molecule in which prescribed information is encoded, a molecular receiver configured to receive the information molecule, and a molecular capsule configured to carry the information molecule from the molecular transmitter to the molecular receiver. Each of the molecular transmitter, the molecular receiver, and the molecular capsule has an artificial cell membrane in which at least one kind of molecular switch is embedded, the molecular switch being responsive to an external input signal so as to control association and separation between the molecular transmitter and the molecular capsule, and association and separation between the molecular capsule and the molecular receiver, upon application of the external input signal.
Abstract:
A scramble key generation unit generates scramble keys (individual encryption keys) which are different from one another and which are for encrypting and decrypting distributing data, by subjecting a predetermined initial encryption key at least once to a unidirectional reverse replacement and at least once to a trapdoor-equipped unidirectional replacement. A time key generation unit generates a time key (master encryption key) for regenerating the scramble keys, by subjecting any of the scramble keys generated by the scramble key generation unit at least once to the unidirectional reverse replacement. Thus, it is possible to efficiently and flexibly generate the individual encryption keys for encrypting and decrypting the distribution data, and master encryption key capable of regenerating some of the individual encryption keys.
