Abstract:
Provided is an illumination device which illuminates an illuminated zone with a plurality of coherent light beams having mutually different wavelength ranges, so that it is possible to allow speckles to be inconspicuous. A illumination device is configured to include an optical element including a hologram recording medium and an irradiation device which illuminates the optical element with a plurality of coherent light beams having mutually different wavelength ranges so as to allow a first and second coherent light beams having different wavelength ranges to scan the hologram recording medium of the optical element. The first coherent light beams incident on respective positions of the hologram recording medium are allowed to reproduce an image superimposed on an illuminated zone, and the second coherent light beams incident on the respective positions of the hologram recording medium are allowed to reproduce an image superimposed on the illuminated zone.
Abstract:
An optical device 50 including a hologram recording medium 55 that can reproduce an image of a reference member and an irradiation unit that emits a coherent light beam to the optical device 50. The irradiation unit 60 includes a light source for emitting a coherent light beam and a scanning device 65 capable of adjusting a reflection angle of the coherent light beam emitted from the light source and that makes a reflected coherent light beam scan the hologram recording medium. The light source has light sources for emitting coherent light beams having different wavelength ranges. The hologram recording medium 55 has a plurality of recording areas to be scanned with a plurality of coherent light beams reflected by the scanning device 65, respectively. Each of the plurality of recording areas has an interference fringe that diffracts a coherent light beam of the corresponding wavelength range.

Abstract:
In a developing roller having a shaft member, a conductive elastic layer provided on the shaft member, and a conductive resin layer constituting a most-surface layer, the conductive resin layer contains a condensed polycyclic organic pigment as exemplified by at least one selected from the group consisting of a quinacridone pigment, a threne pigment, a perylene pigment and a perinone pigment. The developing roller can effectively keep ghosts from occurring and can achieve high image density in a low-temperature and low-humidity environment.
Abstract:
A developing roller is provided having an elastic layer and a surface layer superposed thereon. The surface layer is formed of a resin material containing nitrogen atoms, and contains at least two types of particles, organic-compound particles (M) and organic-compound particles (N). The particles (N) are composed of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic-compound particles. The number-average particle diameter of the particles (N) in the surface layer is smaller than the number-average particle diameter of the particles (M) in the surface layer. Where the universal hardness of the elastic layer is represented by A and the universal hardness of the developing roller is represented by B, they satisfies 0.9≦B/A≦1.8.
