摘要:
An infrared detecting arrangement includes an infrared detecting element having a heat insulating film and an infrared detector which are disposed between an interior space of a hermetically sealed casing for the element and a cavity formed within a substrate of the element and communicating through a ventilator with the interior space.

Apparatus and method for modifying an object with electrons are provided, by which the object can be uniformly and efficiently modified with the electrons under a pressure substantially equal to atmospheric pressure even when having a relatively wide surface area to be treated. This method uses a cold-cathode electron emitter having the capability of emitting electrons from a planar electron emitting portion according to tunnel effect, and preferably comprising a pair of electrodes, and a strong field drift layer including nanocrystalline silicon disposed between the electrodes. The object is exposed to electrons emitted from the planar electron emitting portion by applying a voltage between the electrodes.

An infrared radiation element A heat insulating layer having sufficiently smaller thermal conductivity than a semiconductor substrate, is formed on a surface in the thickness direction of the semiconductor substrate. A heating layer, which is in the form of a lamina (plane) and has larger thermal conductivity and larger electrical conductivity than the heat insulating layer, is formed on the heat insulating layer. A pair of pads 4 for energization are formed on the heating layer. The semiconductor substrate is made of a silicon substrate. The heat insulating layer and the heating layer are formed by porous silicon layers having different porosities from each other, and the heating layer has smaller porosity than the heat insulating layer. By using the infrared radiation element as an infrared radiation source of a gas sensor, it becomes possible to extend a life of the infrared radiation source.

The heat insulating layer 2 and the heating layer 3 are formed by porous silicon layers having different porosities from each other, and the heating layer 3 has smaller porosity than the heat insulating layer 2. By using the infrared radiation element (A) as an infrared radiation source of a gas sensor, it becomes possible to extend a life of the infrared radiation source.
摘要:
A field emission-type electron source has a plurality of electron source elements (10a) formed on the side of one surface (front surface) of an insulative substrate (11) composed of a glass substrate. Each of electron source elements (10a) includes a lower electrode (12), a buffer layer (14) composed of an amorphous silicon layer formed on the lower electrode (12), a polycrystalline silicon layer (3) formed on the buffer layer (14), a strong-field drift layer (6) formed on the polycrystalline silicon layer (3), and a surface electrode (7) formed on the strong-field drift layer (6). The field emission-type electron source can achieved reduced in-plain variation in electron emission characteristics.
