Abstract:
An etching device uses a gas activated by a plasma for etching a semiconductor element. The apparatus includes object feeding and etching chambers formed on the opposite sides of an airtight flat chamber and a support plate rotatably mounted in the flat chamber to bring the semiconductor element from the feeding chamber to the etching chamber in which the semiconductor element is etched by the vertically flowing activated gas.
Abstract:
A subject short-range wireless communication apparatus capable of simultaneously connecting multiple profiles with another short-range wireless communication apparatus acting as a connection counterpart is disclosed. The subject apparatus comprises: a communication disconnection detection device that, in cases where a first profile is connected between the subject apparatus and the another apparatus, detects whether or not the first profile is disconnected due to the subject apparatus' non-acceptance of a connection request of a second profile sent from the another apparatus; and a communication re-connection device that, in response to disconnection of the first profile detected by the communication disconnection detection device, re-connects the first profile with the another apparatus.
Abstract:
A vehicle terminal apparatus has a connection monitoring unit for monitoring a disconnection of a communication link between a wireless communication device and a portable terminal, considering an abnormal disconnection of the communication link as a link loss, considering a disconnection of the communication link by a disconnection process by the wireless communication device as a first disconnection, and considering a disconnection of the communication link by a disconnection process, by the portable terminal as a second disconnection; and a connection condition determination unit for determining a wireless connection condition of the wireless communication device based on a disconnection reason that accounts for a reason for disconnection and a pre-disconnection call condition that is a call condition of the portable terminal immediately before the disconnection when the disconnection of the communication link is detected by the connection monitoring unit. The vehicle terminal apparatus determines a recovery process of the communication link by appropriately considering the user convenience.
Abstract:
The ink for ink jet recording includes a sparingly water-soluble alkanediol, a resin, and a coloring material, wherein the content of the coloring material is from 1 to 3% by mass based on the total mass of the ink, the surface tension is from 21 to 25 mN/m, and the thixotropic index (TI) represented by the following formula (1), as determined at a time point when its content becomes 40% by mass based on the total mass before the evaporation of the ink by the evaporation of the ink, is from 2 to 110: TI=η(1 s−1)/η(1000 s−1) (1).
Abstract:
Radome equipment that includes an antenna device, and a radome that protects the antenna device by housing the antenna device therein and that transmits electric power necessary for communication, in which: a matching layer made of a single-layer dielectric is attached to an inner surface of the radome; and the matching layer has a thickness that is set to a value that minimizes reflection based on an impedance estimated from an interface between the matching layer and the radome before the matching layer of the radome is attached, a characteristic impedance of a medium of the matching layer, a wavelength in the matching layer, and a characteristic impedance of a medium of a space in which the radome is disposed.
Abstract:
A vehicle call device, a call system, a center, and a calling method capable of detecting a problem while controlling the cost increase are disclosed. The vehicle call device includes a speaker mounted in a vehicle, the speaker outputting a received voice of an opposite communication party; a microphone mounted in the vehicle; an echo canceller unit removing the received voice that has been output from the speaker and input into the microphone; a detecting unit detecting an emergency situation of the vehicle; and a remove preventing unit preventing the eco canceller unit from removing the received voice when the detecting unit detects the emergency situation.
Abstract:
An ink composition includes a first saccharide and a second saccharide. The first saccharide is a linear saccharide having 4 or more saccharide units and the second saccharide is at least one selected from the group consisting of trehalose, maltotriose, and a cyclic saccharide.
Abstract:
Fibrous basic magnesium sulfate-containing pellets comprising an olefin polymer and fibrous basic magnesium sulfate in a weight ratio of 80:20 to 20:80 and further comprising a nucleating agent in an amount of 0.3 to 8 weight parts based on 100 weight parts of the olefin polymer and in an amount of 0.2 to 4 weight parts based on 100 weight parts of the fibrous basic magnesium sulfate are favorably employable for producing molded fibrous basic magnesium sulfate-containing propylene polymer products which show high flexural modulus, high flexural strength and high yield strength in tension as well as excellent thermal stability.
